I just watched both the original video and the 2911 in Cleveland video. They showed how Geddi did both the electronic and bass jobs in the 2011 video! These guys did an excellent cover!!
Rush has been one of my favorite rock bands for ever!! They have a unique sound that when you hear it you know immediately who it is!!! Along with Black Sabboth, ZZ Top, AC/DC, and Mettalica!!
The kid on drums had to convince the Music Director of the School that they were ready, that they could pull it off. Here's my favorite SoR Rush cover: th-cam.com/video/_EmlPhZ9ahU/w-d-xo.html
I don't know what brand of drums they are using. I only know Ludwig is a top brand. And the keyboard is a Roland Juno-D, which is a popular brand for the School of Rock bands.
After something of an awkward start these guys really got into the rhythm on what is a goddamn hard track! I love all the Rush t-shirts and: 1:50 - cute! Well-played all-round; I've been playing for 25 years and these guys are gutsier than me ;-)
Clint Tynan The drummer lobbied hard for this show, convincing the teachers and the school's music director that they were up for the challenge of playing Rush.
Thank you. I am glad you left it in. These young artists have chops. Glad they pushed themselves to play this. If you don't push yourself, you will never know what you can accomplish. And nothing as satisfying as having played a great show.
That is the purpose of the School of Rock - to supply young musicians with not just the skills, but with a goal, a place to practice, experienced musicians to teach them, but also the opportunity to mentor younger players as well. I have over a thousand videos up here and have been doing this for nearly a decade, and have seen kids become confident, well-rounded musicians.
To hear kids rockin' out to Rush, and not the growling metalcore kids today call music, brings tears to my eyes. Mr. Teel - no one can be Neal, but you done a damn fine job - simply sublime!
Ethan convinced the Kansas City School of Rock to do a Rush show, that they were ready, and that they would work hard to pull it off. I was happy to be there to capture it ... especially since I had spent the previous week in the hospital and only got out that morning.
One of the toughest songs Rush ever composed - it took them three separate takes to get this right for the album - Hemispheres....great drums, awesome slappin da bass and guitar work. Fantastic job eh!
@@ronaldrockwell8549 the other guitarist looks like hes playing an ernie ball musicman john petrucci signature model, and the bass is def just a fender jazz
G Burns The drummer I looked at some of the other videos I had on my channel and saw other schools doing Rush, and made his case that they had reached the level where they could attempt this.
miconis123 The drummer lobbied really hard to do a Rush show, so he had to bring it when the Music Director of the school finally agreed. It's not whether they can do a song perfectly, but that they are trying to reach that level. And it's astounding how often they succeed.
I can't help every time I watch this video the lead guitarist reminds me of the picture you see of a Neanderthal. My 23andMe analysis told me we all have a little Neanderthal DNA in us. Mine is less than 2%. There are regional differences too!
Simply amazing
The very best cover of La Villa Strangiato anywhere!!!! Prove me wrong!!
These guys have really set the standard for how you cover this song!!
These guys do the very best cover of Rush's La Vila Strangiato ever !!!
The drummer especially did Neil Perlt proud !!!
He worked very hard to convince the teacher that they were ready to do a Rush show.
@@MidWestConcertVideo2 I'm glad they did! I listened to another SoR team's rendition last night and it was good, just not as good as this one!!
EXCELLENT JOB GUYS!!!!

Just one word prefectural play guysi think rush would be surprised

I see all 3 School of Rock logos on the backdrop behind them. Nice touch
This is the first time I atched in full screen on my PC which has a 15 inch monitor !!
Tribute to these kids and to Rush. They did a fantastic job on this. Tribute to Rush: takes 6 people to faithfully reproduce what they do with 3. :)

Sé rifan los chavos!!!

I see 3 Fender guitars here, a telecaster, a bass, and another one I don't

Extremely challenging piece to play. Kudos! Once you got into your groove, you lit it up. Congrats to you all.
ddgallion That's why I left the introduction on...so viewers would know that these kids knew exactly what they were attempting, and how hard it was.

Found the boomer. Le sigh metalcore is music and so prog.

WHO plays a guitar made by Hawthorne???
I got a closer loo at it and it is a Jackson guitar, whatever that is!!
I paused the video to read the name on the second guitarist's guitar and it looks like it says Jackson. I never heard of that brand!
The other two guitars are obviously Fenders by the shape of the head.

AMAZING Ive seen RUSH 10 times and loved them and this was a great job by these guys n girls
You HAVE to watch in full screen mode to enjoy the full effect of this performance!! It's one of the best!!
Ethan, the drummer, had to convince the director of the school that they could pull this off, and the show was an act of love and devotion.
Great tune y'all nailed it superbly done, keep up the Rock N Roll.
Taking on master lvl music! Well done.
You need 3 people, playing with their hands and feet to get it spot on!
My God! This is Awesome. I'm so happy this got put up!
No problem. We'll miss you, and good luck in your future musical career!
Give you guys a lot of credit tackling this complex masterpiece...well done!!!
G Burns The drummer I looked at some of the other videos I had on my channel and saw other schools doing Rush, and made his case that they had reached the level where they could attempt this.
Excellent job on a difficult and LONG Rush instrumental song!!
This is great
This is the best cover by a School of Rock team!! The have it nailed, like he said in the intro!!
It ain't easy covering RUSH, and they nailed it!!
A very hard song to tackle but very nicely done

R.I.P. Neil Peart the Professor on the drum kit.
Excellent Job!
Nicely done!
Thank you on their behalf. They worked their butts off on this show.
Rush is not easy to play and that song in particular. Nice job!!!
The keyboard part is the easiest!
Good try guys!! To play 100 percent correctly and with perfect timing is impossible unless you are just 3 guys and called the holy trinity!
I can't help every time I watch this video the lead guitarist reminds me of the picture you see of a Neanderthal. My 23andMe analysis told me we all have a little Neanderthal DNA in us. Mine is less than 2%. There are regional differences too!
They had their own sloppy version down quickly at least 🤣🤣
Probably not the best choice for a school of rock to cover.
They Suck my Balls. I've seen Rush 3 times in the 70s
Keyboards actually are terrible.
The song could have done without them anyways so no biggie
Keys are horrid - wrong tone - dont think that was a moog.
Butchered it
