krlowe Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Sooo... A kid just sang Tom Sawyer by Rush for an audition in front of the three judges.... Randy was like...."Do you think that's what Geddy Lee sounds like man? Cause he sounds pretty good.".... Awesome and not at the same time! They played TS as an outro. Kinda cool!

USB Connector Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 I thought they actually appeared on the show. I'm happy they haven't sold out just yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReRushed Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 What about the voice of Geddy Lee? How did it get so high? I wonder if he speaks like an ordinary guy? (I know him and he does!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Not Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 (edited) Honestly, I'd only care if he sang an obscure Rush song like Rivendell or something Tom Sawyer, Limelight, CttH? Not surprising.. At all (and.. that sounded good. aerosmith sucks. american idol sucks. him and his poor family would probably have been better off never bothering with those sucks at all.)

upstateNYfan Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Poor guy. Gallant effort, though. Interesting aside: Steven Tyler said absolutely nothing, and I'm not sure it was just due to the lackluster performance. Didn't Aerosmith basically shit on Rush when they were starting out? He seems like a jerk. Must be jealous that Rush has musicians that can actually play! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeOhBe Bob Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Hey TS is NOT the kind of song to sing A Capella, considering how the music fills the gaps between verses and the tone of the music sets the mood for the lyrics.... he shoulda did CTTH!
