snowdog2112 Posted January 21, 2011 Author Share Posted January 21, 2011 I've been really busy all afternoon guys. After I eat and do a couple things here at home I'll put some more up. Stay tuned! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowdog2112 Posted January 22, 2011 Author Share Posted January 22, 2011 Ok, here's another really good one (to me, anyway). It's the full Artist of the Decade Award presentation from 1990. It's about 12 minutes long with a nice introduction and tribute by Sam Sniderman, a great retrospective with interviews, and an acceptance speech. You'll see some of the interviews that are also on R30 but there's quite a bit of different footage here from those. It's funny to think that it's presented as sort of a lifetime achievement award and yet it was over half their career ago now. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowdog2112 Posted January 22, 2011 Author Share Posted January 22, 2011 Another of the many Geddy interviews from around My Favorite Headache in 2000. This one is called "On the Arts" and it's about 6 and a half minutes long. I like this interview a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowdog2112 Posted January 22, 2011 Author Share Posted January 22, 2011 Jeez, nobody's here tonight. Oh well, I guess I'll entertain myself. I just edited and compiled this footage from Muchmusic's Spotlight program from 1996 I have on VHS. It's basically all the connecting bits with the videos removed. I did, however, leave the video for Marathon in there since it's a completely different edit than what's on ASOH and so may be of some interest to collectors. They did it that way to make it more of a montage of the concert and it has a couple other differences. Additionally, there are clips featuring more footage (and some repeats) of the Artist of the Decade awards interviews, a brief bit of live footage of Limelight from Halifax in 1987, more footage in a couple spots from the Roll the Bones tour Auburn Hills show in 1991, and footage from the making of the Half the World video. Hope you like it, I just made it and it was hard, haha! And at 14:57 it just barely squeaked under the time limit. Let me know what you think. Yeah, yeah, I'm not going to have a career as an editor. It should be good enough, though. I think the journey for just this one video from VHS to DVD to my computer to the editor to the format converter to the clip joiner to the youtube upload and processing and posting here took well over 4 hours, maybe 5. I'm not getting paid enough for this. Any more beer offers? But I'll keep going anyway because of my obsessive compulsiveness. And in a bit of interesting trivia, the "flying over the trees and river" segment of the Marathon edit here was actually used during Time Stand Still during the tour which means they likely went back to the raw full concert video to draw that from.

snowdog2112 Posted January 22, 2011 Author Share Posted January 22, 2011 Here's another I've seen a lot of people ask about over the years. It's Neil's appearance on "A Concert of Politics" conducting an interview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowdog2112 Posted January 22, 2011 Author Share Posted January 22, 2011 I'm going to upload a much longer video later today, I'll probably have to do it in several parts. It's the Rush Hour program from the Hold Your Fire era. Lots of great stuff in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're all welcome! Be patient, more is coming. It's just tedious and slow. Have you guys ever seen that A Concert of Politics show before? I'm sure some have but it's pretty hard to find from what I understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rushcat Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 I've seen the Concert of Politics before. I think they used to have it on the Rushisaband Site Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowdog2112 Posted January 22, 2011 Author Share Posted January 22, 2011 Ok, here's part 1 of Rush Hour from the HYF era. I think you guys will really like this, it's almost all "non music video" content instead of a lot of those shows where there's about 4 minutes combined of interviews filled up with the same videos we've all seen a million times. This part has more footage of the Ivor Wynn soundcheck in 1979, another retrospective segment, interview footage with Geddy talking about balancing their personal and band lives and relationships within the band, and interview footage with Alex talking about time off, hobbies, and his inventions. Alex is funny as usual. If you guys don't like this show I'm going to be pissed! Also, for those who are wondering, I'll probably go back and redo the ones with watermarks so there are clean copies for you to download but for now I'm on a roll with this software I'm used to so let me just get it all up first then I'll go back when I have time. Sorry for the annoyance but this was the least intrusive watermark I could find until I got a better suggestion from RushFanForever. It should be good enough to enjoy everything for now, right? Well, unbelievable. It got 2/3 through uploading and it said "failed to upload due to unknown error". I haven't seen that error yet and I assume it's just a random glitch so I'm trying again right now. If for some reason it still doesn't work I'll put it on rapidshare for you guys. Don't worry, one way or the other you'll see it soon. Well, praise be to Rush it worked, that was an ordeal! I'd hoped to do the whole thing tonight and now I just hope to get part 2 up. Anyway, enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't find it anywhere now and certainly not on youtube. If I find I've duplicated something I'll go back later and remove it. Well, crap, now I see it on Google videos. Sorry about that!

snowdog2112 Posted January 23, 2011 Author Share Posted January 23, 2011 Ok, here's part 2 of Rush Hour. Geddy talking about what music he's listening to, travelling, shift in lyrical style, lyrics for Mission, expectations for HYF, fan devotion, and then the piece that's one of the Easter Eggs on R30*. Part 3 coming soon. * Actually, I think it's slightly different. I'd have to go back and look for sure but I think the one on R30 has the AC/DC guy cut out.

snowdog2112 Posted January 23, 2011 Author Share Posted January 23, 2011 Here's part 3 of Rush Hour. A bit of The Big Money from Halifax (with studio audio, though), followed by Geddy discussing several of their videos in detail. Probably the weakest of the parts only because there's less interview and more footage of their videos but it's still pretty neat. There's still more of this show coming.
