RUSH - Live at the Knickerbocker Arena in Albany - 1991/12/12 - Roll The Bones Tour

[@carlgibbons5777]

Don't care what anybody says. The Ludwigs were the best sounding live kit.

[@willteasle81]

which tour?

[@KidTempo]

Carl Gibbons ....as an owner of a DW drum kit I have to agree, the Ludwig used for the rtb tour is my all time favorite kit! They really bring out the tones of the master!

[@vonarkesh2361]

Heck yah!

[@drummer78]

Todd Lipani For me it was that Counterparts Ludwig kit...which may have been a modified version of the RTB kit (not sure).

[@philipthomas6808]

@@drummer78 Neil played the same Ludwig kit beginning with Hold Your Fire through Counterparts... Originally the Ludwig kit was painted white with some pink flecks in it, but with Presto, he had the kit painted Blue and it stayed the same until he switched to DW...

[@mikewhittenmusic]

Rush was at their absolute peak this tour. Not having to wrestle with the "evening with" two set marathon, they still had youth, plenty in the tank and poured it all the way out.

[@eyeheartsushi2212]

Although I only started seeing them live on the Counterparts tour, I agree with you 100%

[@andersonian3122]

Excellent video and sound quality! Most people who criticized the camera work may not realize that this was back when videos and even pictures were strictly forbidden at concerts and your camera would be confiscated if caught bringing it into the arena, let alone recording with it. So you basically you had to sneak to capture any videos. I think this was as well done as you could get, all things considered.

[@dmannrocks]

Wish this tour had an official dvd release

[@TheExiledTexan]

That is some fantastic audio. Really captures the "live sound" feel of being at a Rush concert better than the official releases.

[@lisaharrison1031]

Love “Where’s My Thing”!! Fabulous audio from RTB Tour.

[@cosmicjazzman4817]

I think the bootlegs of Clockwork Angels are better than the official release. The sound is so compressed, drums muffled. How bout Alex Lifeson showing flashes of Eric Johnson licks on this tour? This show they played perfectly. In Worcester Massachusetts it was the towards the beginning of the tour, really good but not as good as this. Not as good as Presto a year and half before. I had this bootleg on audio back in 93'. The Roll the Bones tunes are amazing.

[@missing1102]

@@cosmicjazzman4817 Presto was the best show I ever saw. I caught all of these in Albany in the 90s. I cannot believe how good the audio is. I remember these shows being awesome sounding but wow. The one thing about this area is it's fantastic for music. I

[@timkeagy4094]

The many times I've seen Rush live, this video is my favorite concert. I've watched this video many times and continue to. It presents Rush as they sounded in a concert hall and brings back the memories of seeing them live in that atmosphere. The sound of this video of this show is wonderful.

[@alexspectre962]

That drum solo is a complete piece of music in it's own right. One of Neil's best ever!!

[@ryanbrooks8544]

Frank Chase of Poughkeepsie, NY filmed this. I was the guy who shot the Hollywood Sportatorium videos from Hollywood, FL in 1988 and Frank and I traded tapes via mail for years. He was a great video bootlegger and for quite some time my long distance friend. A salute to him and all of us who carried the torch back in the day when filming concerts was still illegal.

[@wilddrum78]

You know, I love Rush and their Live shows. This was the sound that really worked for them, the drums were thumping, great tone on keys and guitars. I dont know why they changed their sound quality over the years. I think that's why I find this concert so memorable because it was a perfect mix and better then there R40.

[@jamesnoble8205]

Rush's sound started getting more and more dirty and distorted starting with Counterparts. I didn't really care for it as much as what they had going in this era of their music

[@mikewhittenmusic]

Yep this was their peak. Flawless perfection. Tighter than a knats ass

[@newworldman2112]

Man....I remember asking my parents if I could go see Rush on that tour, my dad said I could go only if my uncle took me, so in other words no. I did get to see them many..many times over next few decades, and just the other day I got to take my son to see Geddy Lee at the Orpheum Theater

[@robertpinazza4043]

Geddy and Neil are on FIRE on “Show Don’t Tell”.... I’m speechless. Really this whole concert and tour was beyond epic, and for me signaled that they were returning to their power trio roots; more refined, more relaxed, and ever more capable on their instruments. They are the Great Masters of music of our time- without a doubt and without equal. Virtuosity on full display by all three right here.

[@birdg2112]

I agree with that sentiment entirely. Thanks for all the great shows. I'm from Australia so obviously never got to see Rush live. After seeing all tthese great shows I'm kicking myself for not coming over to see them. And now it's too late. One question though what in your opinion is the best sounding show from the Moving Pictures tour? Once again thanks for all the shows

[@SnowdogPL]

Thanks... I'm a fan of Rush so I do this "job" with real pleasure :) The best sounding show from the MP tour? In my opinion there are two such bootlegs (except for "Exit ... Stage Left" of course): show from Chicago, which took place on March 1, 1981 ("Chicago, IL 3-1-81 - The Definitive Edition") and show from Anaheim, which took place on June 12, 1981 ("Anaheim 1981 Master" or "Anaheim, CA 6-16-81 - The Definitive Edition"). My favorite is the second show, because it's closer to the version of the ESL. Below are a few useful links: www.digitalrushexperience.com/database/tourlist.php?tour=12 www.sepia.dti.ne.jp/Junya/trade/rushlist.text rushbootlegtrading.blogspot.com/ www.rushtrader.com/rush.htm www.test4echo.net/ kzbin.info/www/bejne/gYjCh4Chr9afobM kzbin.info/www/bejne/gofNfHSFhq2Karc kzbin.info/www/bejne/bZmbapSChLOKeJo

[@Imaikalani70]

Loved the Tama’s & Ludwigs. They had a sound that DW is unable to replicate

[@SuperFlanders123]

I'm a drummer,and yes, I don't care for DW's. Would rather Tama or Ludwig any day.

[@apieceofdirt4681]

shrill Mark I don’t care for them either. They’re beautifully crafted drums. Some of their finishes are out of this world but they’re overrated in my opinion. A lot has to do with how they are recorded and produced but I’ve never liked a single one of Neil’s DW kits. His red sparkle kit with coated ambassador heads made me wonder what the hell he was thinking so I check out a set for myself. I could never get a decent sound out of them so I stuck with my Ludwig Super Classics. The Ludwig factory in Monroe is/was stellar. They use to let Joe blow to come in and try out their drums. When I bought my drums they even refinished my Tama 22" gong bass drum to the exact color of my Ludwigs like Neil. They don’t do that anymore unless you’re famous which sucks. I had to replace my 6" drum and that one drum was just about a grand because they considered it a very specialty drum. I love them. Listen to the beginning of “Where’s my thing”. Neil’s small toms are so tight it sounds like a raindrop hitting a puddle. AMAZING!!

[@Keyop68]

Yeah the Dws font have the attack and throatyness of tamas, ludwigs

[@apieceofdirt4681]

Keyop68 There’s a video interview with Neil discussing and playing his R40 “modern” DW kit. The program is called “Masters of Resonance”. Towards the end of the program he is when he’s test driving his kit and I must say they don’t sound half bad. I don’t know what kind of microphones were used to record it but I can hear tones coming out of his drums that I haven’t heard in YEARS!! That that doesn’t mean I like the way they sound but it’s a big improvement over his Time Machine and Snakes and Arrows kits and they absolutely sound better than horrible red sparkle DW’s with coated Ambassador heads! Neil was and always will be the shit but once he switched to DW and started taking lessons from Freddie Gruber (who convinced Neil that he was a jazz drummer in a rock drummers body) I didn’t follow his playing as much. His playing just wasn’t as creative as it use to be but that’s just my opinion.

[@Keyop68]

apiece ofdirt I agree , Neil didn’t need to re invent himself, he needed to push on . I hated test for echo. I think the tama kits sounded the best

[@apieceofdirt4681]

@@jamlive6650 From one fellow Rush fan to another I definitely respect your opinion. However me personally, I just don’t care for their live sound once Neil started endorsing DW. I think his Ludwig drums sound killer in this particular video. Neil’s Snakes and Arrows kit were the only DWs I thought sounded good and were especially better than those dead sounding Romanian River Oak drums he played during their r40 tour. Those are just my opinions. I still love and respect Rush musically regardless of any differences we may have. Cheers my friend 😊

I’m sorry.....as I am sure to offend some people, but I DON’T CARE. RUSH is not only 3 of the most intellectual and most talented musicians to ever live, but this is the ONLY band I have EVER seen that can reproduce live.....exactly what they recorded on their albums. That is extremely difficult to do!!!!!

Ed M Why would that offend ? Its a very good complement !!!!

[@jeffcharlton9660]

How would that offend? I agree with every word.

[@aschule5684]

One of many reasons I loved this band so much, they always said because they as music fans themselves always wanted to hear people replicate their music the way "they" were familiar with it on the album so they painstakingly tried very diligently to do that themselves. Being a Zep fan also I always had a problem with Zeppelin live, they'd improvise everything so much and never never played anything like their albums which for that reason I later found peace in never seeing them live because of that.

[@apieceofdirt4681]

+George Dosal Soooooo true. Neil’s R40 kits sounded almost too dark. His snares had a nice crack to them but I could hardly hear his smaller toms on either one of his kits. They should have either been tuned higher or double headed because they just sound too dead. When I saw them in Greensboro this past May I shit at the sound of those kits because it was like after almost 20 of playing DW they finally gave Neil a more expensive kit that actually sounded worse than all the others. John Good is overrated.

[@gdosal1]

It was better but you are right apiece ofdirt about the higher toms. He would always tune those very high.

Saw this tour at the old Capitol Centre in Landover Md. HYF,Presto and RTB are my favorites.
