Verena Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Aww, Rhyv! I always love "new" Rush stuff that I haven't seen yet. Geddy's facial expressions at the beginning are priceless! So Geddy-ish. :laughing guy: :laughing guy: :laughing guy: He's very authentic and 'himself' whever possible. That's why he is who he is! :rush: Looks like he was thinking "Is this guy for real???"

blueschica Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Uhm. Anyone notice Geddy's little - er - moves at around 3:00 or so: https://www.youtube....ayer_detailpage I hope I did the link right. I tried to link it at the point I'm talking about. Nice catch! Gush, gush. I don't remember seeing him quite like that before, he's really got some moves! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone here posted a video link that did that and I should have asked him how he did it. But...back to Geddy and his wiggles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The link actually brings up the whole video from the beginning, but since you put 3:00, it was really helpful! I was able to fast forward to that part right away to see what you were talking about! :D :D Definitely worth gushing over! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorraine Posted October 12, 2016 Author Share Posted October 12, 2016 There is a way to get the link to take you to the exact spot in the video. Maybe someone here knows how to do it and will share their knowledge with us! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeddysMullet Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 (edited) There is a way to get the link to take you to the exact spot in the video. Maybe someone here knows how to do it and will share their knowledge with us! :) On YouTube, if you hit the "share" button, it gives you an option to "Start at:" like so: Pause the video where you want playback to start and check that box, and it will make the link for you. You can also type in the time you want. Then copy the generated link not from the browser bar, but from the box as shown, post it here, and Bob's your uncle! https://youtu.be/MwIxHcs6wFk?t=3m6s NOTE: The "embed" feature will not work with the custom start feature even if you remove the s from the https, but the link will work, as above. (I'm pretty sure that was the move you were after? ;) :D ) Edited October 12, 2016 by GeddysMullet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeddysMullet Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 :cheerleader: :cheerleader: :cheerleader: Another great Rush song that gets little love on account of the fact that they play it so much live. Lorraine, speaking of great Rush songs that are often played live, I know that you like Dreamline. What is your favourite version of that? My husband once went on a kick where he had to listen repeatedly to every official* live recording of Dreamline that we have in an effort to figure out which is his absolute favourite. I never cared about this song much, but it has grown on me greatly thanks to my husband's obsession! He settled on this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oXZP34DcK94 *He doesn't like bootlegs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorraine Posted October 12, 2016 Author Share Posted October 12, 2016 I know that you like Dreamline. What is your favourite version of that? That's easy. :) The one from the C&A tour. The CA String Ensemble made the song more poignant than ever. A real tear jerker for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorraine Posted October 12, 2016 Author Share Posted October 12, 2016 Still watching that interview. :) What strikes me the most about Rush is how they were willing, in 1987, to give up their livelihood rather than their families (Geddy starts to talk about it at about 43:00). How many other bands would have did that? I don't know that I would have myself. As much as I hate to admit this, I have to be honest. I would have reasoned that i could always replace loved ones with new loved ones, but I couldn't have replaced fame and a career that I had worked so hard and long to achieve, and I would not have been willing to lose that. This has always astounded me about Rush almost more than anything else about them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorraine Posted October 12, 2016 Author Share Posted October 12, 2016 Anyone else here struck by this about them? Listen to what Alex has to say after Geddy. I really marvel at those two. I wonder what it is about them that makes them so different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I might hear why your husband thinks this is the best one. I hear stuff from Alex's guitar that I never heard before. I'm not sure if that's because it was drowned out before or whether it was something new he added for that tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, my husband is an Alex fan, and I'm pretty sure it's the strength of the guitar in it that he especially likes about that version. He wrote a guitar solo for one of his songs that was inspired by the Dreamline solo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorraine Posted October 12, 2016 Author Share Posted October 12, 2016 (edited) Now I'm in a Snakes mood. I will always be grateful to RUDT (who now has a difffernt user name) for shaming me into listening to the album again. I had listened to it and did not like it at all. But due to RUDT and his shaming me, I gave it another listen, and I honestly am glad that I did. The album has some of the best material Rush has ever done.

Snakes & Arrows is close to Presto someway, with certain differences: - more developed sound system;- technically mature. It's Rush unique style and it's equally sensitive.

Lorraine Posted October 12, 2016 Author Share Posted October 12, 2016 It has some of Alex's best guitar work on it. In fact, if it hadn't been for Alex, I wouldn't have grown to love many of the songs on the album. As an example, it was his guitar that saved Spindrift for me.
