snowdog2112 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Passaic is on the main bonus disc so it depends on which version you buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EagleMoon Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Enjoy! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dHfaQeNXfG4&feature=youtu.beIs Alex obnoxiously loud or is it just me? I thought so too which is most likely the hand signal by Geddy to turn down at the intro to Natural Science. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowdog2112 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 You can see Geddy do that in countless videos usually referring to his vocal mike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowdog2112 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 It's possible. Although this audio has been mixed after the fact so in a way the final result you're hearing on video doesn't necessarily have anything to do with what Geddy was hearing at the time. I can tell you that on my full stereo there's no problem hearing the bass. There's lots of low end so you feel its presence which makes it much easier to hear.

But from playing onstage for a lot of years I just recognized him having a little trouble hearing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bscsmkr Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Considering how good this footage and sound quality are that unless they come out and plainly say that this is all we have for this show that we could "salvage" they know damn well that they will need to clean this up and release the entire show on blu ray somewhat soon considering how the fans have been salivating for this tour on video for almost 20 years and now we finally get some and it's universally praised by all Rush fans who have seen itIt's a true gem in their catalogGot to release the entire showOne thing that does suck is that even with this release you can't watch all the 97 footage at onceYou have to watch the bulk on the R40 bonus disc and then for the last 3 you have to switch out discs and put in the completist bonus discIt would have been great to watch all of it without switching out the discsCmon full show 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pale Facsimile Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Wow. Just to echo (no pun intended) everyone else's sentiments, this show in its entirety needs to see the light of day on DVD/BR. The audio for the 3 posted songs sounded fantastic, and the visuals were very good for 1997. I won't hesitate to say that if they could get the whole show together and have it sound even remotely like these 3 songs, the hypothetical T4E DVD would instantly become my favorite of their entire DVD lineup. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowdog2112 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 For what it's worth, a guy who seems to be a genuine insider posted in August last year on RIAB the following. Obviously it won't be out this year, and maybe it's not even true. But it is encouraging: Oh, one more thing before I hit bed for the night. I did actually get an answer earlier in the year about the discontinuation of Different Stages and was told that there was going to be a new version of it released with a DVD/Blu-Ray combo pack in 2014. So I am going to guess that this will be some version of the Toronto show they filmed in 1997.I have a feeling that we have not seen the last of the certifications for the Different Stages album :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bscsmkr Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 That would be phenomenal Re-release the different states audio with bonus tracks not included on the original release and put it with the full Toronto show on blu ray as a box set Holy shit would that be great So many good songs left off the original official releaseThey could even throw in additional audio from the cp tour like the original So many possibilities Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YYZumbi Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 I have not watch the youtube videos, because I wanna see it for the first time with as high quality as possible. I pre-ordered the R40 Box Set from Rush website, and in yesterday I got a e-mail that they have sent it, but since I live in Europe, I guess I have to wait 3-4 weeks... And after reading all that you guys have said about this box set, that is to long waiting time, I am going crazy here!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowdog2112 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Watch them! You know you want to. Give in to temptation! :) Actually, I admire your patience. If you decide to wait it'll be worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hehe, no, I wont watch it on youtube, I don't like watching music stuff on youtube, because it destroy the quality. So I rather wait, and then when I finally get the box set, I will watch it and REALLY enjoy it, because it will all be new to me! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowdog2112 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Well, I just watched all of the 1997 footage on the main bonus disk for the first time. It is splendid. The performance is outstanding all the way around. I'm sitting on my couch and countless times I practically jumped up and went "Yeah!!!!!!!!!!" Every song there sounds great. Neil sticking his tongue out at the camera during Virtuality was really funny. Always heard they played their hometown a little uptight but that's nowhere to be seen here. And 2112. Holy shit. It's 1:30AM here and I don't care. I cranked it up painfully loud and it was perhaps the most glorious thing I've seen since I don't know when. Just nailed it. And Alex's solos are perfect, the one in Soliloquy being out of this world. I may go watch it all again right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicky6 Posted November 17, 2014 Author Share Posted November 17, 2014 Yes, this footage is what I been waiting for, yes a full show is out there somewhere, but what makes me mad is that they been sitting on this for 15 yrs , out of the last 5 concerts they gave us, this ones the best, and its only a portion .... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Different editor for this as compared to Animate maybe? Are you suggesting that younger viewers can't focus on anything for more than a few seconds at a time?

bscsmkr Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 I cannot stop watching the 97 footageIt's the only reason I bought the boxset and I don't regret it at allIt's amazingThey really need to release the entire show on blu ray and dvdI know a lot of us have been waiting for many years to see footage ever since the eve was initially announced in 98 They could do something really special with a different stages re-release boxset4 disc audio3 original discs1 bonus disc including material played on tour but not released and possible cp tour song2 disc DVD/blu ray contains the entire show from Toronto 97This is Rush at its modern day finestEveryone in top formI hope they now understand the importance of this show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
