RUSH - Live In California 2007

Hollywood Bowl, Los Angeles, California, USA
July 23, 2007
Here is a terrific full-length video from the first leg of the Snakes & Arrows tour. Kudos to the taper, RJPass, for making this gem available - a great centered location, a tripod to keep the camera rock-steady, and nice full sound. The shot is consistent throughout - no zooms or close-ups - and it is a pleasure to watch. Enjoy!

[@Roddrummer]

I live in Australia, Rush never came here in almost half a century of existence, so I went to them. I saw them 4 times on 3 different trips, and this was one of those 4 times. And the most memorable. The memories!!

[@robertandrewhale]

There goes the universe then, never the like to be seen again, rest in Valhalla, rest in glory Neil.

[@scottbridgeforth507]

AMEN Still filled with Tears Of Joy having lived in a Time to of seen Them Play

[@robertandrewhale]

@@scottbridgeforth507 Sweet mate, got to see them many moons ago in 1982, stupidly lost touch with them until Snakes +Arrows, absolutely one of a kind as a Band.

[@superslayerguy]

such great quality, for some reason bootlegs do more to recreate the feeling of being at the concert. I remember I saw this show when I was 10 and the guards let me and my brother stand in the isle because we couldn't see over anybody. we were so close and had a clear view of Alex the whole time, and I'm sure established eye contact with us several times ( as Neil stated in his books, the band always payed close attention to the crowds during their shows to make sure everyone was having fun). I was so much shock after this concert I eventually went on to learn guitar. many many cheers to this legendary band :')

[@Marfoir0303]

Imu Son and I saw it too, We live in Yuba City California fantastic concert 😎

[@liquidbraino]

Cool! I was there too! But I was 27 at the time. I guess we're both a bit older now.

[@celestelongway7315]

yeah! RP!

[@michaelweinman9051]

cool story!

[@michaelweinman9051]

Loved this show, too. Set 2 -1 st song was so loud down in front. It was amazing ! A fun family of Rush fans ! Thanks John VE- for the ride to the Bowl.

Intelligent music from intelligent musicians for intelligent LISTENERS.

[@Marfoir0303]

My son & I were there that night it was fabulous we saw them four other times too.,Rush had no opening bands they just played for 3 hours. We had box Seats one level off the he floor; I wanted it to be special for my son. It was fabulous 😎

[@liquidbraino]

@@Marfoir0303 You must be the coolest dad ever. My dad hated Rush (and he was CANADIAN!) But he did take me to go see Journey on Dec 31 1986. They only did seven more shows with Steve after that one.

[@TheSquonk2112]

If you're a Rush fan, and watching, listening, and experiencing Entre Nous played live for the first time EVER doesn't give you goosebumps, then I don't know what will. How come they never played that song live until 2007 is a mystery but how great is it that they finally busted it out!

[@Daslaer]

If I may make another request, my first ever Rush Concert was Time Machine Tour, New Orleans...I would love to relive that show again

[@kennatiousc]

(just between us) good question

[@kennatiousc]

it might be because they did'nt have that stand alone accoustic guitar onstage idea yet in 1978

[@TheSquonk2112]

kennatiousc lol

[@TheSquonk2112]

kennatiousc ah, but they did - alex used the standalone when he played the Trees, during the Hemi tour in 78-79. (entre nous was 1980). who knows....i am just glad they *finally* decided to play it.

[@brommendebeer]

II'm so sad that one of the best drummers Neil Peart died at the age of 67, that's much too young. R.I.P. Neil Peart and thank you for all those good music you make with Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson.

[@alisonannallyallen1437]

Rio Neil

[@trenken]

67 is very far from young. Just sayin. Peak humans are 20-30s. 40s is aging. Neil lived almost 3 decades after 40. It was still a full life. Accomplished a lot and saw so much.

[@fa18superhornetpilotcessna75]

What a night . I met Geddy after the show . A dream come true meeting my hero

[@apieceofdirt4681]

Musical hero I hope. These guys are awesome musicians but none of us knew what they were like personally other than what we’ve heard. I’ve always read that all 3 were very humble good people and that’s not always the case in the music business. I just hope he’s a musical hero and not a life’s one.

[@liquidbraino]

I lost my brother in 2007. I went into a deep depression and a friend of mine convinced me that I needed to get out of the house - to NOT self isolate. He invited me to a Rush concert - it was THIS concert. It changed my life. Thank you for uploading - I have been looking for footage from this concert since 2007. You uploaded this video in 2014, I don't know why it took me seven years to find it. But thank you for uploading! I WAS THERE! About twenty feet to the left of where this was recorded.

[@michaelweinman9051]

I was there too! My great concert buddy John VE died suddenly at like 53 in like 2008. We went to Rush - this show- met his girlfriend there at the Bowl. We had box seats ! John was a heavy smoker. A Self Employed GC with a license. 20 years experience very skilled in tile work. No med insurance, rarely saw doctors. Good looking rock star type of dude. John started having weird dreams and visions of USA underwater. Then poof - gone in like two weeks. Gone. Never really knew he was sick. Luv ya John. Miss ya TONS. See you on the other side.

[@stevedrums1675]

Still hard to process that this will never happen again. But what a blessing to have been alive to have seen them as much as I did (48 times since 1982).

[@Marfoir0303]

Wow 48 times I saw them 4 times and I thought that was a lot. I wished I could have seen then 48 times; which of the 48 was your favorite? 😎

[@stevedrums1675]

@@Marfoir0303: Actually, 49 times but mis-typed!!LOL! I think if I had to pick a 'Top 3' shows, it would be the first on the 'ESL' tour when I was 12 at the Meadowlands, NJ. Because seeing that drum-kit and absorbing (or trying to absorb) everything he was playing just opened my mind to endless possibilities as a beginning drummer. Plus, these guys were like super heroes to me and here they were!!. The second would have been the 'VT' tour of 2002. I saw three shows that tour but the more memorable one was at MSG. Just because I was with a buddy who first turned me onto the band in 1980 and that they had come back from Neil's tragedies and the band was simply "on it" that night. Geddy's voice was clear and strong and the band was just in a fantastic groove. The final show was the 'R40' show I saw in Greensboro, NC. I thought that this would be the final tour and the boys had some errors but they were also their age. Going back in time and Neil bringing back the double-bass kit (minus all of the organic percussion except for the chimes behind him) and hearing a few songs live I had never heard played live before after all of those years kind of made my Rush experience that night a full-circle.

[@stevedrums1675]

@@Marfoir0303I can narrow it down to two: 1) The first time because it was the first and featured the 'MP' drum-kit. 2) Probably the Vapor trails Tour because of how fresh set-list as, coming back after five years and Geddy sounding as strong as ever.

[@MrTremewan]

Will show my age here. Saw them in concert at the Cow Palace in San Francisco in 1980, the first time they performed a live version of "Free Will," which was then a brand-new song from their as-yet unreleased Permanent Waves album. Great show.

[@RoarOfWolverine]

I saw them on the same tour, it it was in Lakeland, Florida 1980, Permanent Waves tour. It was my first time seeing Rush live and was the best concert I had ever seen. Never missed a tour since.

[@paules0099]

I saw them in Comisky Part in Chicago, an outdoor event in the summer of 79. They were the main act. If I recall, it was Roadmaster, The Tubes, Southside Johnny and the Ashbury Jukes, Foghat and then Rush. I digress. Rush opened with 2112 and introduced Freewill and The Spirit of Radio for their forthcoming album, yet to be titled. What a great time!

[@michaelweinman9051]

Subdivisions sounds fab!!

[@BigDancin]

I was at this show, and it was great. Because this was at the Hollywood Bowl, it was a bit more of an "industry" crowd than when Rush plays Staples Ctr, or better yet the LA Forum (back in the day and this coming August!) or Verizon Wireless Amphitheater. LA Rush fans are generally just as die-hard and know their Rush as well as anybody. No need to diss Neil Peart's current hometown!

[@davidholdbrook9428]

BigDancin no better yet Long Beach with 38 special opening. Then Moving pictures at Anaheim convention center day off then the next two nights at Long Beach again. Those were the classic shows because they still played back to the first album.

[@Chekmate99]

I was also at this show and the crowd was somewhat subdued from start to finish - for me the problem is with the venue - Hollywood Bowl has too much open space and the sound quickly dissipates into the atmosphere, because of this it quickly kills the ambience for certain bands like Rush and it’s very difficult to recapture. Also don’t need ear plugs at the bowl which tells you something. However, saw them at Gibson Amphitheater for Time Machine Tour and Staples for Vapor Trails and completely different feeling - the sound reverberates inside the building and bounces off and inside your body - you can’t help but feel the electricity...

[@michaelweinman9051]

@@Chekmate99 BTW Both those LA Rush shows are posted on KZbin. Staples Vapor Trails is called Attack of The Meat Bees. I attended this superb Rush Bowl Show and Staples VT tour too.

One of the best shows I've ever seen. My 3rd Rush show- I'd just turned 17. Went with my dad, his girlfriend and a buddy from high school. Phenomenal setlist and the band was just on fire. Neil was tight, Alex was clean and crisp and Ged's vocals were damn near perfect. Thank you for capturing this. I'll be coming back to watch this over and over I'm sure. The crowd seems tame in the recording here but people don't realize the deference paid for performers at the Bowl, or how big the place is. It isn't just a rock show but an all around experience. Besides, there was plenty of fan mayhem in the audience all around from my observations. And of course we had to break out the doobies for Bangkok. Cause "they NEVER play Bangkok!"

[@ledzepfan63]

i,ll listen to rush on my deathbed

[@benvankoningsveld]

Oh man, this version of Mission is just incredible!! Neil plays a cowbell, Alex nails the solo and Geddy's voice never sounded better. Wow!! but still the pricks in the audience walk around like the living dead, unbelievable.

[@1windscape]

How could anyone be walking away....astonishing!!!!

[@kennethsmith8968]

thats people from cali for ya.

[@denboe2894]

My dude...… They are just stunned from the level of music........The bar is set quite high as you can hear.

[@bobgates3357]

RUSH ROCKS THE WORLD RITE!!!

[@PanasonicYouth21]

Goodness gracious, they NAILED Distant Early Warning. So good!

[@yrmthr]

natural science of this tour was omazing

[@Marfoir0303]

Rush has a great sense of humor too, I thought that devise behind Geddy Lee was a new electronic gadget. It wasn’t they were roasting chickens for the after show party every so often a chef would come out and baste the chickens 😎

[@ThomDorke]

He nailed that high note on Freewill. Damn impressive.

[@TheSquonk2112]

he's still got it (or at least had it in 2007) lol

[@ThomDorke]

TheSquonk2112 Yeah. He is still very good for his age but I am not sure if he can hit this note anymore. Most recent was on the Time Machine Tour

[@snapascrew]

+Shane Russell ya, time machine was the end. the last tour rush did with GREAT vocals was R30. snakes and arrows was good.

[@ManOffTTC]

Wrong answer, dude. They are tuned very well, and this was played in the original key. If you are a musician, you'll notice it's played in the key of F, just like on the record. Eventually, Geddy did hit the F5 note here, just like in the studio.

[@ManOffTTC]

TK Smith You just can't handle being wrong can you? You little bitch.

[@celestelongway7315]

Rush rules! from MTW LA CA USA 2019 Summer ..........

[@gregggaldo9181]

You should've tilted the camera up just a tad to get the big screens...other than that...Great video!!

[@josemiguelcabreravillalong3637]

Espectacular

[@npeart1]

good sound quality

[@thesaneparty4079]

My favorite set list in a long time on this first leg- Digital Man, Entre Nous, Circumstances in a row, a bit out of character (in the right way) for RUSH. Now if they would play "different strings" with a guest appearance by Hugh Syme at the piano, that would be unexpected.

[@TheSquonk2112]

Very out of character, but here's to more of that on R40. Ultimate set list - one song/album - what would it be?

[@thesaneparty4079]

Ha Ha- every Rush fan would have his own dream set list of course. Mine would be heavy on the Signals, Grace under Pressure, and Power Windows- topped off with some Caress of Steel and gems from everything else. I know Ged can't/won't sing hemispheres these days, but that's also a favorite along with Natural Science. If they'd stop apologizing for Ayn Rand, further, I think I could love them properly again.

[@jeffreyrosen568]

TheSquonk2112 Working Man, By Tor and Snow dog or anthem, Fountain of lamneth, cygnus x -1 book 1 or xanadu, cygnus x 1 book 2 or really any song from hemispheres, natural science, the camera eye or yyz, the analog kid, distant early warning, big money, i hate hold your fire so nothing, roll the bones or dreamline. I dont know a few others but I hope they play animate and maybe even stick it out. I really hope they play caravan or clockwork angels .

[@MarkButton1]

Lucky enough to have seen these gods seven times over 30 years. Sad that my son won't get to experience that probably but they likely ceased touring at the right time physically. Here's to some one off gigs or run of gigs somewhere?
