The Owl Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 I cannot find the Eddie Trunk/Niel Interview, but it was on youtube at one point. Another concidence, is that not only is this the first preformance of rush in over 30 years, but probably the first time all 3 members have been interviewed together in just as long.

skyswing Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 QUOTE (Cygnus The God Of Balance @ Jul 16 2008, 11:20 PM) That sure was a lot of work to set up Neil's kit and the guys gear for 5 minutes. Very cool though. I wonder if this will open up other TV appearances in the future? Who knows but we'll see if there's anything to Stephen's self-referenced "Colbert" Bump!

theredtamasrule Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 The best was Jimmy's question about their next album title in regards to not being elected to the R&R Hall of Fame: "That's Bull$h!t" Hilarious and the boys seemed to get a kick out of it too.

weezy2112 Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 I have to say that was one of the best shows I've seen yet !! Neil was awesome, bet it was his idea ! Alex unusually quiet but seemed to be laughing alot. Geddy stellar as usual. They all seemed a little nervous but bar stools are awkward in of themselves. TS rocked ! Hilarious bit with the sleepytime hat and pillow for the "long song". Had to know they'd still be playing when they came back from the commercial break. The whole thing was too friggin' hilarious !

ofsalesmen Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Anyone else notice that Jimmy sounded like Alex? I thought it might have been him at first until I heard "Peert." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skyswing Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 QUOTE (1-0-0-1-0-0-1 @ Jul 16 2008, 11:25 PM) Neil's eBay joke was awesome. Yeah it was!!!! did really well. I was pleasantly surprised to see him in the interview setting with Alex and Geddy. It would have been really awkward and problematic for him not to be, though and hopefully Jimmy gave Stephen guidance on how to steer with Neil.

ofsalesmen Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Well, this has been more of a chat than a thread. I suppose everyone was just as excited as I was. This was really one of the coolest things to happen to Rush in a while and I hope there's more events like this in the future. After that, I'm so incredibly pumped for Charlotte!

nobodys hero Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 I liked the interview part, but come on the band has been on American tv for 33 years so lets go to commercial during the song?? Poorly planned...no wonder they don't perform on tv shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiriusRushFan Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 I thought it was a well planned show, and it seemed to all fall together nicely. This is a great warmup for their next appearance at the Nissan Pavilion on Saturday night and I'll be there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfratt Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Yea, I wansn't exactly expecting to see them come out with The Fountain of Lamneth or anything, but why Tom Sawyer? I'd figure Limelight, Subdivisions, Freewill, Far Cry, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
