Timbale Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 Oh man, Omar playing with those guys was SO damn cool! I love that he didn't sound like some Rush tribute drummer, he sounded like his bada** self! And I don't care if it wasn't too close to the actual intro...having someone actually play the synth at the start of 2112 was a big smile! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cygnify Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 Geddy with one arm around Paul McC and the other around JPJ!!! (there has to be a picture of that!) Man, what an incredible show. Really amazing tribute to Taylor. His son drummed up a storm too (I joked with a drummer friend "He hits those cymbals like he's not paying for them!") If I had to pick a drummer to carry on with the Foos though, it would be Josh Freese. The energy and playing is incredible and I think he would fit. Not as much energy, but Roger Taylor's son Rufus would be a fitting choice too. The karma level is crazy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, he played them crooked vultures set. I was hoping for a ged , Alex and JPJ led zeppelin jam with omar Great show but I am little surprised no zep. Best day for rush fans since the final show imo. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then Alex starts ripping it. To me they were shooting for an ATWAS vibe... Could not be happier with the setlist. Old school. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HemiBeers Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 I only saw bits and pieces of this but I'm very glad that they didn't turn this into a self-indulgent cheese fest. Even as a cynical old geezer I thought Dave's quiet version of Everlong was one of the most poignant moments I've ever seen in a concert. Shows the true potential impact of a song when you strip away all the noise. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megadeth Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 Damn that was the worst rendition of YYZ I've ever heard Rush do. Geddy was playing in a completely different key on the first verse. I guess they haven't been practising much. That and they're like 90 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apetersvt Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 What do y’all think. Was the fact that the “Rush” set contained no songs with Neil lyrics on purpose or just a coincidence??? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1-0-0-1-0-0-1 Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 I think Alex's guitar tone iin this show is the best he's had in years, maybe since ATWAS. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H to O Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 (edited) What a huge surprise!!! So cool to see Geddy and Alex on stage together, and Dave and Omar did great! Unique seeing these songs played with Dave and Omar’s styles. They were all smiles, and surely Taylor and Neil are smiling too!!! 🙂🙂 I only saw Geddy and Alex’s part, and Wolf Van Halen’s part (OMG - Wolf!!!). I’m looking forward to seeing the rest!

It was a shame they messed up the tricky break after the intro, but that's a tough break to pull off without a ton of rehearsal, which I'm sure they didn't have. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s a drummer that really pulls back on the beat, where Neil is propulsive and drives the beat forward. Interesting contrast. I could hear where Neil would have pushed YYZ differently, and it seemed Alex and Geddy were having to adjust to Omar’s different groove. It was all awesome!!! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurkst Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 I've watched it three times now. What a f***ing fantastic little set. One day those kids at Wembley will appreciate how lucky they were... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Dave asked to slow it down a bit. Oddly, I think Working Man sounded the best of the three, and I never say that. lol Alex changed the bridge part to YYZ too. I think he forgot how it went. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever you're smoking, I want some. Alex's guitar sounded good but not great. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
