The Rush Tribute Project: Jacob's Ladder

[@Juancho-2024]

Great Band, great version of this song. amazing sound, great techniques. congratulations..

[@1drumsmoke]

Only a true Rush fan can appreciate how good these guys are, and thanks to the great audio I can say that.

[@TheMentalblockrock]

I agree, wish they played the UK!

[@dno4794]

John Matthews How are we going to get them over to the UK? Does anyone know if Ged or Alex has heard of these guys and what they are doing? Instagram? If anyone’s on that platform. They’d be pleasantly surprised. As I was. Long live the professor.. 🙏

[@robonbass6864]

I second that... 🤘

[@KevanRice]

Your welcome I have had fun reading comments as you uam sure brush are cubadians to me and some others here they are apple pie hotdogs vaseball American

[@mollymikna9354]

Agree with all the great comments here.... Life long Rush fan and bass player inspired by Geddy.... These guys put in the time and they have the talent to pull this off! All Rush fans who are musicians themselves know EXACTLY how hard it is to replicate the greatest band ever. Really well done guys! Thank you for keeping the flame of Rush alive!

[@robonbass6864]

Big ass amen here man... 🤘

[@servicedog2325]

Agreed. Seen these guys live a few times. They're the real deal. Heard a rumor somewhere their guitarist started playing guitar after he saw a band play Ridin the Storm Out at a grade school talent show.

[@niftyfiftycampingadventure795]

Nailed this big time guys... Neil will be looking down with a grin as wide as the river Tyne.. xxx

[@guaporeturns9472]

And the river Alph too

[@davidjames1684]

This band is climbing the ladder of success.

[@oiramsq73]

HOLY (Expletive!!!). (I’ve been binge watching your videos... you guys are amazing!) About 30 years ago Rick Wakeman said words to the effect that “Yes” was not a band as much as it was a style of music. I suppose that the caped crusader was talking about Prog - I think he was right. Bands like The Rush Tribute Project are brought-up in the prog oeuvre and right now it is a ‘tribute’ because the bands are still (kind of) with us (RIP Neil). In another 30 years, bands like this will be analogous to the symphony orchestras of the early 20th century. Keep up the GREAT work.

[@johnbiggs9561]

Great performance. You nailed it. Rush songs are not easy to play, and this performance was fantastic.

[@brianmcbride99]

You guys come about as close to the real thing as any of the tribute bands out there. I really appreciate your drummer’s knack of mimicking Neil.

[@dibber43]

Excellent rendition of Jacob's Ladder, y'all!!!😎👍 Well Done!!!🤗

[@sergiocardoso1129]

I like this song.Great performance.

[@KRush-zj3rv]

OMG! Shivers up the spine. Great song, great band and what a tribute! You are seriously wasted playing to people who have seemingly never heard of Rush like that lot!!!!!!!!!

[@cosmicsman666]

Band = Great... Crowd= A bunch of mac n cheese eaters.

[@davidatanas78]

😂😂😂

[@johnpabst4349]

Funny Shit = Spot on!

[@tomsawyer5736]

LOL perfection

[@ealingschoolofdrums3692]

As Musicians, we are all inspired by the Great Original trio, apart from the fantastic authentic playing from the Guys here, I must say that the Vocals are just utterly brilliant. I mean it must have taken years to get them up to the standard offered here. FANTASTIC !

[@marcoporras9690]

That was f***ing amazing 👏 👏👏👏👏👏. Great job guys!!

[@russferris341]

Excellent! Really captured it...I felt the thunderheads rumbling!

[@jonesygw]

You guy’s just keep impressing the hell out of me. I hope you can come up to Canada at some point, you’ll be welcomed with open arms by all Rush fans I’m sure. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@antonchigurh3794]

EXCELLENT!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@fcamiola]

The greatest Rush tune along with Broon's Bane/Trees/ Xanadu

[@michaelstoecker3616]

I thought it was talk playing acoustic guitar and singing until I got better but you guys holyshit talk about multitasking on stage you guys are unbelievable

[@jackmomma7481]

The audio is on point for real. And that Rickenbacker sound just like it should with that overdrive

[@grahammiller9049]

Apart from that annoying pick up/ fret click that is on every one of their videos when the Rick is used. It ruins what is otherwise a good job

[@jackmomma7481]

@@grahammiller9049 yeah, fret noise can be very annoying. That's when adding some compression comes into play. Compression and having the overdrive saturated at judt thr right level can help reduce a lot of that. The E and A string hitting the pickup poles actually sounds good wjen everything is set just right with the drive. Just listen to Jacob's Ladder from EXIT... STAGE LEFT... you'll notice that "crackle" sound as Geddy Lee is playing. That's what you want out of a RIC

[@bigstef2010]

not many bands covering this song. congrats to you guys.perfect job!

[@JoseReyes-eu4ti]

ne of my favorite songs of RUSH, thanks guys for keeping the essence of this wonderful band. I hope to see you soon, greetings from Costa Rica

[@TheRushTributeProject]

Jose, The Rush Tribute Project will be performing at the Hard Rock Cafe in San Jose, Costa Rica on September 7th. Hope you can make the show!

[@JoseReyes-eu4ti]

Thank you guys for responding, I am very excited to see you play in Costa Rica, and I hope you give me an autograph and let me take a picture. I'm not a young man but the illusion of seeing RUSH one day vanished for me, but I'm happy that you continue with that legacy and give us the RUSH fans, the magic of that splendid music, and thanks to you because They are magnificent musicians ..

[@vlobster7660]

@@TheRushTributeProject Will you visit Europe?.....please!!!!

[@mousearebec]

Glad that Rush did this on their final tour. But this is certainly a very good performance of this song.

[@mousearebec]

I've been listening to this from the Rush R40 vid, and this is really an excellent version, shall we say. Certainly kept the "spirit" of the song. Neil would approve, I would hope. Crowd unappreciative, though. You guys have done the work to get this far.

[@Polarisfff]

Best Rush Coverband in KZbin. The crowd does not understand the music....😅

[@markusaurelius777]

Not the best Rush coverband on youtube. YYNOT is by far.

[@Francisco2868]

By far the best Rush tribute band

[@markusaurelius777]

Nope - YYNOT is.

[@dannaef2280]

These guys ROCK!!! Not an easy band to copy but they nailed it!

[@vishtiberiuskirk6770]

Again this is amazing. Technically really hard to pull off but you guys managed it - from a lifelong Rush fan! Loving all your videos.

[@muttley918]

Imitation is the highest form of flattery. 🤟🏼✊🏼👍🏼

[@bryansonnet2454]

Kudos to the mixing ! really a great overall listening experience!

[@Francisco2868]

Brilliant

[@ryansheehan9462]

Please tell me Geddy and Alex are aware of this band. The best Rush tribute band I’ve ever seen.

[@TheRushTributeProject]

We're not sure if they are, but thank you for the comment!

[@RogueReplicant]

Musicianship: Spot on! 👍 Voice: Goofy

[@scissors656]

finally a great rush tribute band !

[@arthurking6846]

They've been around for years. Finally getting noticed because of Neil's death and the endorsement from Gerry and Alex.

[@michaelstoecker3616]

Permanent waves was my favorite album by the way I feel like I'm listening to the record got to be said got to give credit where credit is due

[@dan4345]

So guys...if this covid bullshit ever ends, we'd love to see you in the birthplace of Rush. Ontario Canada.

[@sjsphotog]

Amazing guys.. one of my fave Rush songs.. what model electric guitar is that? Carvin? Keep it up

[@garyporter8153]

Perfect.

[@philippejanssens9066]

damn they are good

[@mrsayang]

Great Band and Performance. I have a question. The drum set is NOT a DW. Which one is it exactly and how did it get those R30 kind wrap design, or is it lacquered?

[@chrisslooter2825]

I'd maybe go with the neck pickup on the guitar lead, like the record. So I give this 4.99 stars out of 5.

[@chrisslooter2825]

I just checked Exit Stage Left to make sure the neck pickup was used on that version also. It was.

[@donaldcampbell6296]

Man, you guys sound good...but, where are the speakers/amps?

[@davidcastagna752]

Donald Campbell they passed out ear buds to every person in the audience...all kidding aside these guys are fantastic...the speakers are somewhere..the audio here sounds like it’s coming from the board...

[@samiverstine7351]

All has become clear now. Rush made their music hopelessly complex to cover so no one else could follow them up Mt Olympus- how’s it look from on high?

[@chrischoir3594]

great

[@superbulldog81]

Either you "get" Rush, or you don't. Looks like some people in the crowd get Rush, while others don't.

[@markusaurelius777]

Guitar player is the weakest here.

[@Tundra_Guy]

Sounds great, bass drum needs to be turned up a bit though.

[@perfectionbox]

Awesome cover, but... shouldn't the ending have more energy?

[@stevedrums1675]

Drummer is really solid, but plays too light to capture Neil's power. I do like his use of the electronics though. Nice overall performance.

[@dno4794]

Yeah totally agree. Just needs to loosen up. just flow. He knows his chops. 🙏

[@vlobster7660]

I was thinking the same mate.He obviously has the chops.....he just has to beat the crap out of those skins!!!

[@thecoderofyoutube]

More bends in the pre-solo section, it’s too nice. The drummer needs to hit that snare harder.

[@robertholmes2588]

Funny, if the blonde lady in the white shirt is on here .....shout......look familiar

[@ddd228]

I peed my trousers....

[@rogermoore7658]

Have that crowd even heard of RUSH..?

[@markusaurelius777]

Rush is meant to be "listened to" not headbang to or go crazy to, LOL.

[@KevanRice]

The base inthis sobg with 4 mach 1 Speaker s will losen rhe sce2s in 6oy4 doorinobs

[@highdownmartin]

Might as well play a shopping centre. Crowds dead

[@thomgwarrior]

Those two dudes in the crowd left in the beginning to get more beers. Lame..

[@chrishomer1247]

Nah..... drummer has got nowt.

[@andyharman3022]

He gets the parts right. He needs more power.
