I think the one regret I have about Rocky leaving YYNOT for Mood Lifters is that the latter band doesn't seem to tour very far outside of SoCal, and I'm in NYS. I've been so impressed with Rocky ever since I first became aware of her work. I thought she was phenomenal from the get-go but she's only grown in her vocal abilities. It can be hard to sing Rush because Geddy Lee's vocal style is so idiosyncratic. The best thing I can say about Rocky is that she brings her own style rather than imitating Geddy, but her approach is completely appropriate for the songs. It's a balance very few get right, but she nails it. Plus she knows how to work the crowd. :) I don't want to praise Rocky at the expense of the rest of the band. They do a great job of faithfully playing some incredibly difficult songs. It's not something every Rush tribute band does well. Mood Lifters is one of the top Rush tribute bands IMO and every member of the band has clearly spent a lot of time mastering their craft. Still, I wanted to give Rocky a special shout out. She is impressive, to say the least. And someday I hope to catch a Mood Lifters show. Maybe y'all would autograph some merch for me post-performance?
Sure Bill! And we want to get to NY. It was a goal for us this year, but some other things came up that we just couldn't turn down. It will happen, and many thanks for your kind words!
@@MoodLiftersRushTribute If you make it out my way, please consider playing in Rochester, Buffalo and/or Syracuse. I'm in Rochester and I could actually give you some suggestions about venues you might want to try to book in my neck of the woods (one or two have really crappy acoustics, but there are some great ones in Rochester too). In any event, I'd be thrilled to catch one of your shows. In the meantime, please keep pursuing your own dream with a mission.
We've been busy cats! Shows all over the place (some very long ones!), Rocky and Ben in Scotland, preparing for Australia in August! We do our best to keep the content coming.
@@MoodLiftersRushTribute That's fantastic ! I was hoping you would come to Northern MN someday , not just California.. And now you are going international ! Hope you put lots of content up after these trips!
Presto and Hold your Fire Albums are ranked low but my opinion is they are excellent albums! This cover is Fantastic Y'all do a great job the guitar work is awesome everyone is awesome keep up the great work ! 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Big Rush fan but Hold Your Fire is their worst album.... overproduced and too many keyboards. Glad they started to ditch the keyboards after this album.
Power Windows was more heavily produced and at least as keyboard heavy if not more, yet considered by many to be one of their best albums. We can't agree because we love the 80s phase as much as the other eras, just for different reasons. And one common reason - it's all Rush!

ROCKY IS SO HOT

All that good creatively missed. You sir have one too many a keyboard for your own good.
never "yay" people
Never saw someone take "yay" as a personal affront!
@@MoodLiftersRushTribute Rocky was just being her genuine self. It's part of what makes her a terrific entertainer.
