In the next couple of days a mod on that board was at the taping and will give a breakdown from behind the scenes so maybe we'll find out a little more if the boys were in on the joke. think about it. They had just finished the solo section of Tom Sawyer when the song was cut. The commercial break last about 2.5-3 minutes. The song would have been over if they really continued to play throughout the commercial. This is all taped in advanced, of course the boy's were in on the joke. Oh yeah, I'm sure they were but there are plenty of people who are still irritated nonetheless. I think the inside scoop will be interesting reading anyway. It was planned that way obviously,Colbert made the comment during the interview about how long there songs are. At the end of one of those big epic Rush songs, Did you ever get influence from yourself?( something like that) Wonderful show glad they chose the report to make this rare once in a life time tv appearance.

Yes to Yes... Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Thanks, Queen of Megadon! I'm glad there's a group I can use as a soundboard. My husband is sorta surprised at how deep I am into them after one simple show, so I've already talked his ear off. But really, I've learned so much more about myself through their music. What really matters to us all. And that "In The End" is such a kick-a$$ stripper song! Only one complaint: I love to cook, and their music, in general, isn't conducive to cooking. Guess I'll have to change the menu, right? RE: the Colbert Report - I think the guys are well aware that their songs are not commercial-break formatted, so they were in on the "joke", if there was one. But to me, it did look like Colbert himself was a bit uncomfortable when he tried to break for commercial - like he was told to try to pause their performance or something. The nightcap/pillow thing sorta smoothed it out at the end, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fledgehog Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 @people bitching about the band being cut off; quit being such fanboys. it's tv, i would bet the contents of my bank account that it was all scripted, and that the boys were cool with it. i thought it was great to see them on air. the whole "they'll finish up eventually" gag is probably a joke referencing their epics (2112, hemispheres etc).

ReRushed Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 It was funny! And it was pretty much what I expected it to be - Rush having fun and not taking themselves too seriously. It wasn't classic television but it was certainly fun television. Oh yeah, in regard all the "Pert-Peert" criticisms. Personally, I still catch myself saying "Pert". It's a hard habit to break and Neil himself doesn't seem to mind! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. It was obviously a joke. They should have played "Hemispheres" in the background throughout the entire show. Now that would've been hilarious!

Colbert - don't try to stop a song to go to commercial. I don't dance, just the cooking part! The first time I heard "In The End", I couldn't help but think that it's got such a deep, rhythmic beat for a stripper - that's all. Probably my fave song from Fly By Night. (listen to me, like I know everything about RUSH ) I usually listen to jazz/blues while I'm in the kitchen (Buddy Guy, Sharon Jones, Latin jazz music) But if I could dance... RE: The Colbert Report - I watched the replay of tonight's show, and it seems to me that his producer who SO LOVES RUSH geared the entire show around them and probably would have done a much longer interview if he could have. But maybe someone out there could answer me this: if the guys haven't been on U.S. tv in over 30 years, why now? And in a "venue" much smaller than what their music is really geared for?
