[@MoodLiftersRushTribute]

Thank you!

[@donaldcampbell9219]

I can’t get over how good you guys sound.

[@MoodLiftersRushTribute]

Thank you so much!

[@RicardoKowaluk]

One of the best Rush covers I've ever heard. Congratulations to the band.

[@turyjordan3827]

Absolutely magnificent! Bravo 🙌

[@jessestewart4654]

Such a great song. I was fortunate enough to be at this show.

[@YasmineMullins]

They made an amazing cover and Rocky looks even more beautiful.

[@kelleyfrederick1111]

Fantastic! I really enjoyed the full musical recreation experience of that song..! AFTK...my fav..

[@Andre-gt2bw]

Incrível a introdução dessa música Som mágico e que gosto muito!✊

[@markandersen5187]

Those vocals!!! Guys playing instruments pretty damn good too...this was fantastic!🤘

[@DarkTideOffroad]

Dude on nylon has the whole place mesmerized. Clean clean clean.

[@MoodLiftersRushTribute]

Thanks (from Ben!).

[@watchmakerfs]

That's a great one! Nice camera angle above the drummer.

[@DrummerMatMan]

Thanks so much! :)

[@Andre-gt2bw]

A farewell to kings! Rush...👊

[@michaelcreel106]

Congratulations to the whole band, you all sound great. I first saw Rush live in '76, about a year before this album came out. Good memories!

[@tyronejefforeillyramirez7961]

Wow!!! You guys are getting better and better. That guitar solo was ON POINT!! Can't wait to make one of y'alls gigs soon!!

[@tednugent1351]

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! THAT WAS BEAUTIFUL! There's hope in the world.

[@glenntallwhiteman]

Luv ya, Rocky ! The whole band is spot on. Keep rockin' y'all. Some of the music that you play CANNOT be easy to do....

[@BillyTheKid_Norwood]

So much Amazingness...you guys should form a Rush tribute Band and call it Mood Lifters...I too used to be in a RUSH tribute band in Austin Texas called Overture....back in the mid 1990's to 2002...You guys are note for note...excellent job...🥰😎

[@user-qi2jj5nh4h]

Excellent as always! Missed you guys!

[@rayluko2824]

Awesome job! Man it sucks ass playing outside in the cold! I think of ELP at Comiskey Park in Chicago in the 70’s, they’re all wearing winter coats!

[@BigDancin]

I couldn't really feel my fingers for the first four songs! You gotta "use the force" on stuff like that.

[@tomcorley238]

I so wish you all could come close to the Chicago IL area ! Still trying to find a date I could come out that way. Hopefully soon after you get back from Ausi land :-)

[@MoodLiftersRushTribute]

We'd love to make it to Chi sometime, but there's nothing to promise yet in the near term.

[@nigelholroyd2942]

Brill Guys, just make sure YOU DO come back to Perth W.A. What a night that was.. Many thanks.

[@MoodLiftersRushTribute]

Thank you Nigel! It was special for us too!

[@nigelholroyd2942]

@@MoodLiftersRushTribute I'd like to suggest !! If...you do ever manage a return, I'm pretty sure you'll need a far bigger venue, May I suggest you or your management team look into maybe performing your next West Australia event (fingers crossed) at one of the many wineries south west of the metro area, Quite a few musicians choose this option, I'm confident it will pay dividends for you, All the best guys, ❤👍

[@MoodLiftersRushTribute]

@@nigelholroyd2942 Thanks Nigel - we'll keep a note on that for next time!

[@RangerRon75]

You really showed how much fun and in tune you are with each other! This venue, and whomever did the video and sound is GREAT! If you have more songs from this show , please post them and don't wait so long in between! Rocky's old band has yet another singer . Rocky is and will always be the best Rush singer in my opinion! She can't be replaced!

[@Robdoeme69]

❤

[@randarmax]

Finally going to see this band when I fly out to visit my sister in Los Angeles this July. Can't wait. Hope they play this cut.

[@metallus2]

Awesome. Love the lyrics to this song too.

[@pinimpel]

Nice!

[@michaelmontalvo5757]

I had forgotten what a wonderful piece this is! Well done, Mood Lifters!!!

[@MoodLiftersRushTribute]

Thanks! We love playing this one.

[@relentlesscactus]

I so appreciated this gig! I drove 400 miles to see the band, but was trumped by a guy who came from Arizona with a Neal Peart cap! I choose this gig because if I'm going to drive that far, I want to get my money's worth. The band played three sets of one hour. That is value for money, especially the -- what was it -- $2 or $3 entrance fee! That's less than the $5.50 I paid for Aerosmith in 1977. I hoped the band would not repeat any songs, and indeed in 3 hours they did not, Rocky stating that intent during the first set. In fact, there were several song I know they could play that they did not play. I was so glad to see this video, as I wasn't sure this gig was being recorded for high-quality sound and video. I do have a *request*. My friend and I, despite giving ourselves an hour of leeway, got caught in a gridlocked Friday night LA traffic jam and missed the first song, that I later learned was Cygnus X-1 - Book 1 - The Voyage - which is among my very favorite Rush songs, and I didn't know Mood Lifters even covered it, even though they do Book 2. I did see a single-cam online that caught the end of this song, and Rocky is searing when she unleashes, "Spinning, whirling, Still descending, Like a spiral sea, Unending!!!". But I'd love a high-quality, full multi-cam version of that song ;-) Thanks again for this cut, and this gig!!! Look forward to seeing y'all again soon.

[@MoodLiftersRushTribute]

Thanks RC! It was nice to see you at the show and get a chance to talk for a bit. We appreciate that you came so far. We would love to honor your request but, as your luck would have it (not so good on this, our recordings got started a bit late and we do not have the full audio from Cygnus X-1. We are FOR SURE going to play it at another show soon, though, and we will do our best to capture it then. Sorry the traffic monster got you!

[@relentlesscactus]

@@MoodLiftersRushTribute Sorry the recording gremlin got you! ;-) Been there, too many times. Great to hear you will be playing this again soon, and hopefully I'll get to witness Book 1 one of these days. It's such a spacey beginning for a song that I've been curious how y'all weaved the beginning of that song together.

[@MoodLiftersRushTribute]

@@relentlesscactusWe mirrored the album, utilizing the original Rush intro. You gotta put people in that head space to "set the table"!

[@relentlesscactus]

@@MoodLiftersRushTribute 👍

[@marckristel1598]

On Point…

[@mrl6052]

Grandioso ! 🔥🔥🔥

[@donaldcampbell9219]

Unreal

[@guaporeturns9472]

Damn good!!

[@BassmanDan66]

Well done, All!!!

[@j.m.5300]

Fantastic. Rocky is looking more gorgeous every day.

[@rayluko2824]

Rocky sings ALL of the songs beautifully, but boy does she sound exceptional on older Rush, say from Signals on back, especially from Rush to Permanent Waves albums.

[@blackmanx5845]

Awesome job guys! I needed a pick-me-up, check! Keep on rockin' that Rush! Dang, I miss those guys.

[@MoodLiftersRushTribute]

Thanks - we miss them too!

[@g-pa-Rok-n-Tok]

This is how I like my Sundays to start! I hop on board the Thailand Express, and end up at a Mood Lifters gig! 🤘💜☮️🤙

[@MoodLiftersRushTribute]

We're happy to share the ride with you! Thanks.

[@human911]

Great job!!!

[@yyz4761]

Where in the F is your tribute to Xanadu? No disrespect I’m currently loving it

[@MoodLiftersRushTribute]

We have a full length show vid in the works, and we played Xanadu that night!

[@yyz4761]

Nice! Looking forward to it. You guys are super tight, I’m liking this singer

[@guaporeturns9472]

I think Xanadu should be next (if you haven’t already got a video of it , I can’t find one)

[@daviddiamond1128]

I didn't know Rocky was in this band. You all rock.. just great. Farewell to Kings forgotten like a deep cut. Not for me.. 1976-79 amazing period before they exploded.

[@sdfotodude]

Freaking awesome

[@MikraSpA]

Good as the real Rush

[@mistreated]

KILLER! Second to none. Well, maybe those guys in Toronto. lol

[@davebasch5995]

Needs more Vibra-slap😅😅

[@jonr9858]

Somewhere Neil Peart is smiling......

[@mookyyzed2216]

Huge mistake to pass on this album by Rush.

[@YasmineMullins]

They made an amazing cover and Rocky looks even more beautiful.
