No need to signal, Geddy and Alex have been playing together since grade school, Neil came later and added his pure genius to the song writing, impeccable drum skills which were unmatched to this day and the rest is history. They are the real thing. Bands that can sync up like this are a true rarity. WELCOME the RUSH ARMY my friend, ENJOY!

YYZ live in Rio. Trust me. Even for us lifelong RUSH fans, it’s mind blowing. The band was impressed big time! Those people had been literally waiting their entire lives to see them because they never toured there before. Strong crowd reaction!

Honestly, that's FUN for sure. But it's just a 'jam'. This guy's a musician, not easily impressed. He'll enjoy YYZ, but I'd expose him to different ERAS of Rush, to pique his interest more. Something from Power Windows - Middltown Dreams, Mystic Rhythms, Marathon. Something from Presto. Some LATER stuff (which I don't like as much, but.....) Stuff like 'Chemistry' . or 'Losing It' just for VARIETY............ and of course, DRUM SOLO

This piece is about the nightmares Alex would have - and it a complex work in 12 acts. I. Buenas Noches, Mein Froinds! II. To sleep, perchance to dream… III. Strangiato Theme IV. A Lerxst in Wonderland V. Monsters! VI. Danforth and Pape VII. The Waltz of the Shreves VIII. Never turn your back on a Monster! IX. Monsters! (Reprise) X. Strangiato Theme (Reprise) XI. A Farewell to Thing Each segment is part of a different dream or nightmare - Lerxst is Alex's nickname - Pratt was Neil and Dirk is Geddy. You may see references to Lerxt, Pratt and Dirk at times - it is just what the guys called themselves in the band.

In one of his interviews after Neil passed, Geddy called him a "fucking monster musician." In reality all three were fucking monster musicians! Geddy and Alex were best friends since, like 7th grade or so. Neil replaced the original drummer after one album with John Rutsey, so he was considered "the new guy.". There is no weak leg on this tripod.

Geddy actually recently published a book about bass guitar, because apparently he has become one of the foremost experts on rare basses and the history and evolution of the bass guitar. He decided to channel his compulsion to collect rare basses into writing a book about them for bass nerds! Geddy is one of the greatest in rock, other top contentenders: Chris Squire from YES, Flea from Red Hot Chili Peppers, John Paul Jones from Led Zep.. This song is completely arranged, the only improvisation going on is Alex's main solo. The title means 'Strange House' and the piece was inspired by a series of nightmares that Alex had. Each section has a brief title that characterises the dream segment. The abrupt end makes me think of waking up suddenly, as it usually happens when waking from a nightmare, Lol!!

Great reaction Church Man!! They wrote and released album “Hemishperes” in 1978. They were in their mid 20’s! This album nearly broke them! They were so musically ambitious that they have said they actually wrote music beyond their capabilities! They usually recorded live off the floor in 4 or 5 takes (rehearsed during sound checks while touring)! They recorded their whole 2nd album in 10 days. They attempted to record this song off the floor and were determined to do in 1 take, after 10 days, they finally had to admit defeat and record it in 3 parts! It took them nearly 3 months to record this album with only 1 day off! They worked and practiced this song for months after that until they could go out and record this video LIVE (with no audience) in 1 take! (They refused to do any song that they could not perform live.. and this was 1978) Geddy says they just do it over and over and over again until it’s muscle memory! They connect so well, they just know how to keep it on the rails, but they worked super hard for it! After this album, (which only has 4 songs on it) they swore that they would never put themselves in such a stressful, position again! It was putting them in a bad place ! So the next album “Permannt Waves” has a very different vibe! Lovin the journey, man! I recommend your next one be “Leave That Thing Alone” live from the Time Machine Tour! That will fill your need for “slappin dat bass” and has a really cool drum solo as a bonus!! Be well and God bless.. from Texas!

Any Rush fan can tell you... you experience whole different songs when you focus on just one thing. As a bass player, I would expect you to hear the bass first. But you really need to listen many times before the lyrics come into focus, especially as a musician, and the virtuosity always overpowers the words. Truthfully that is why we are lifetime fans... you can listen over and over and over always finding new and amazing things in every song. Discovering lyrics is just a step in falling down the Rush rabbit hole.

Great point about getting lost in any one aspect of their music. I get lost focusing on how Geddy Lee manipulates his voice and enunciates the words to match his bass and tell the story.

tightest band in history. they always said, if one of them is solo-ing, they're all solo-ing (all at the same time). There is always loads going on but they never do too much - always restrained and understated whilst being incredibly technical .

@ZIG4ZAG20 3 ай бұрын

They each have their own unique cues to help each other out. They are known for being notoriously over rehearsed when it comes to the live show AND it’s like they have a special kind of relationship with each other and can basically telepathically communicate and react to the other person in a situation that might make other bands train wreck into stopping mid song and starting over, where they look at each other and keep going how they need to till the other one gets back in sync with them🤯I’ve seen it happen live when Alex broke a string heading into the solo of ‘Closer to the Heart’ and Geddy and Neil double backed a few seconds, together in unison, while Alex literally threw his guitar to one guy (stagehand) as his tech was running up with the replacement for him, and it was like maybe 3-5 seconds and if you blinked or looked down right then you would have missed it and never known it happened.👌👍🥇🇨🇦🎼🎸🥁🎤🎹

No lyrics, the music is the lyrics. The song is based on some crazy dream Alex had. Every movement in the song is reflecting a person going to sleep, dreaming, having a nightmare, and waking up. That's my interpretation of the song. The section called "Monsters" is the nightmare portion of the song but not a traditional nightmare (scary), think along the lines on Monsters Inc. The transition after the monster section is supposed to reflect a big band, love Neils drums in this section. Also Alex guitar solo sounds like the horn section in a big band. Alex first main solo at the beginning of the song reflects a person dreaming. Geddy is my favorite bass player. He has so many bass lines that are absolutely killer. One of my favorite lines is from Digital Man, just love the groove and melody. Two Geddy solos that that are fan favorites is Leave that Thing Alone from the Time Machine Tour and Malignant Narcissism from Snakes and Arrows tour. A must see is Working Man live in Cleveland, what is killer is when you see Alex and Geddy solo with Neil holding it down.

Excellent reaction, and I know you will love "Working man live in Cleveland" and "Freewill", great songs with a more prominent bass. I will also tell you that Geedy Lee changed his professional contract to a bass that I believe disappeared and "Steinberg" and then to the Fender Jazz Bass. Another point to highlight is that in the drumming community it was said "A drummer uses a metronome and The metronome uses Niel Peart". Again great reaction and follows Rush. Blessings

Okay Church Boy! So glad to see your reactions to RUSH! My wife an I have been to see them 5 times back in the day, they were so awesome at their crafts. I watched all 3 of your RUSH reaction videos and see you really dig on the instruments so here is a suggestion for you to react to. The first is YYZ (pronounced YY Zed) in RIO and has no lyrics except for the huge and awesome crowd singing the instrument music and can be found here - kzbin.info/www/bejne/qXOmh6aMgLpnhZYsi=7VNOa2eUHGAZBepC . Also , I think you'll like Spirit of Radio. It has lyrics but it's a great jam and can be found here - kzbin.info/www/bejne/fHfTi3mkf5uNiposi=4666PU4P9YkMPlbz . It would be great to see your reaction! You also mention their timing and sync capabilities a lot so, I know you've reacted to Tom Sawyer already but I think you should see this video for an idea of how they do it. This is Tom Sawyer in their studio during the winter and is a superb video and track - kzbin.info/www/bejne/jp6vg3mDlNqhZ6ssi=3VzGqS8Ro7gfQFnL . Lastly, for another instrumental, you have to react to Neil Peart's drum solo in Frankfurt, it's over 8 minutes and is a concert on it's own. You'll be amazed! It can be found here - kzbin.info/www/bejne/goi1foKAhqmcgrcsi=ArQJRDtQMAOEdLHH . I'm a musician too so to see your appreciation for the 'masters of their craft' work that RUSH did is awesome, I love your reactions! Keep up the good work!!!

Not only is Neil drummer's drummer, he's literally a human metronome. Their precision is basically a lot of rehearsal. Before a tour for instance, each musician would re-learn the music that was chosen for the show, Then after each musician did some homework, they'd rehearse for a several weeks until everything was solid, and each member was satisfied. Geddy would learn his bass parts until muscle memory, then work on the vocals with playing. Then team up for rehearsal. These guys worked very hard, right out of the gate, and that never stopped.

Thankfully, there's a massive amount of music in the Rush catalogue to satisfy your bass cravings!! Welcome to the club and Rush rabbit hole.

What makes the F-to-A groove really sing is that it's in 7/8. It brings an off-kilter feel that elevates it.

Two songs that are a must for you Working Man Live in Cleveland (Time Machine Tour) Headlong Flight - Opening is Bass riff you would completely dig. FYI they didn't use queues. They were all just that perfect

Fun fact - Rush struggled to record this track in the studio and finally decided to lay it down in two takes. When the time came to record this video they were really surprised that they were able to do it in only one go.
