The whole thing with Taylor and the reason so many people loved him (besides being a great drummer) is because of how much of a genuine rock fan he was and how contagious his enthusiasm was for his favorite bands. He'd probably be pretty stoked about the idea of Geddy and Alex playing a Rush song together in his memory. At the Freddie Mercury tribute concert, there were bands playing their own music and bands playing Queen music. Both seemed appropriate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even in the second half with Queen you had parts of Pinball Wizard, Kashmir, and Thank You. Bowie performed Heroes, Hunter did All The Young Dudes.

Man, Geddy needs to perform 2-3 times a year. Should be obligatory. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You were 50% correct. Omar Hakim is a heck of a drummer too. On 8/25/2022 at 11:44 AM, JARG said: My god, I hope they don't play a Rush song at the Taylor Hawkins tribute. That would as bad in taste as the Foos playing a Foos song at a Neil Peart tribute. They didn't play a Rush song but played 3 or actually 2 and part of another.

Bahamas Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 I am catching up and watching some clips on You Tube. It seems to me that during Working Man, Mr. Grohl is looking out at the guys and thinking "I thought you guys were retired?!"...breath...it can't last much longer...keep breathing... I thought it sounded great! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ytserush Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 Much better than expected. The whole show was very tastefully done. And Geddy and Alex did the perfect set for the occasion. Overture to honor the hall of fame performance. Working Man for Rutsey, Neil and Taylor and YYZ to honor both Taylor and Neil's memory. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thizzellewashington Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 Based on the videos I thought they sounded tighter at the LA show than they did at the London show. Less mistakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
