Alex's Solo

Anyone know the name of Alex's solo prior to Closer to the heart?

 

We had Broon's Bane in Exit Sage Left prior to the Trees. What do you think this one will be called and might it be on Clockwork Angels?

 

I'm going with Broon's Pen!

That was Broon's Bane wasn't it?

 

As for the new solo, how about "Gangster of Boats Trilogy, part 5"?

 

Or "Leave that freakin' thing alone already!"

 

No... since it's just Alex, probably need something like "Hope, pt. 2"?

According to the setlist as posted on Rush.com:

http://www.rush.com/resources/php/viewStory.php?id=367

It's called Love 4 Sale. Although, it's possible they were referring to Neil's drum solo, it's not specified, but I think it's much more likely that's a title for Alex's solo.

It's definitely the drum solo.

Maybe this is a way for them to "implant" a new song in our heads? You know this could be a song from Clockwork Angels. Alex goes out plays a little thing on acoustic and were alike that was great, and in a few months when we listen to Clockwork when its released well be like "hey I've heard that before!, That was Alex's intro to Closer to the Heart!"

It's called "Vamping for time before Closer to the Heart". tongue.gif

 

I wish he would still play Broon's Bane. That version on ESL is really, really good.

 

"Love For Sale" is an old Cole Porter song that Neil somewhat incorporates into the dum solo.

 

Watch Buddy Rich around 3:30 in this video. Heck, watch the whole thing, but pay attention to the rolls that Buddy does there. UNREAL!

Watch the greatest drummer EVER. No debate necessary.

That was my thought exactly!

 

I think it might be a piece if not the intro to a song on Clockwork Angles that Alex threw in as a teaser!

This is a stretch, but what if they do this:

 

Have some sort of drum-focused part on the new album (think like Didacts & Narpets) that, when played live, is turned into a full-on drum solo. Then Alex comes out and plays this acoustic thing, which is either a straight-up acoustic number (like Resist on the VT tour) or just an extended acoustic intro to a song.

 

I'm still basing this on my assumption that they're going to play the whole new album live on the next tour.
