NAMM - Neil Peart Discussion with Christian Hand, Garth Richardson

I attended this discussion, but the video is not mine. There is a lot of stuff that we might all already know, but Christian Hand's presentation is pretty enthusiastic. He breaks out stems of 4 of Rush's most popular songs, so we got to hear isolated performances of each member, especially those of NP.

 

For those of us that are slightly sensitive, there is some industry humour that might come across brash in regard to the members of Rush, but it was done with appreciation. There is some interesting and humorous gossip about Alex Lifeson's hair for one.

 

Gggarth has an interesting story near the end of this series (it's in 3 parts) regarding Battlescar as well.

 

Another thing about GGGarth is that he's a very successful, respected music producer of many bands who are popular, but are also awful. It's interesting to watch him try to explain/understand Rush's success. It becomes quickly obvious that he is another one of "those guys" that can't quite grasp Rush's appeal, even though he obviously has an appreciation.

RIP NP

No mention of JR Flood.

 

Yeah he mentioned Hush but not JR Flood. Weird.

Rush geekdom is a pretty broad spectrum. He seems to be in about the middle.
