Oh hells yeah! Right on Brotha! The time it takes to learn one Rush song could equal 30-50 other rock songs! I appreciate the time and energy you took to learn this. I can see a Rush tribute band brewing!! Hey, we saw an ELO tribute band and it was $50-60 per ticket. They were amazing and I would see them again. Only trouble is moving your kit around!!
Well done Adam. Been playing this one a lot in the past, so watching for the little nuances and you nailed them. Great sound and nicely miced from the kit. Trees and Grand Designs are in my top 6 must plays every time I sit behind the kit. Cheers!
I Just Watched the Trees Adam. I have nothing left to Say Anymore. I Have Had Several conversations with you in the Past Watched Several of your Videos in the Past Weeks. My only words Left that you Are Amazing. I Have Told You This many Times. I Will Continue To Enjoy Your Videos for A long Time Man. Thank You Adam !!! You Are So Talented !!! You Are My Favorite Drummer To Watch ever !!!!
Setting aside the phenomenal performance for a second, the focus on recording and mixing that drum kit was phenomenal as well. That's one of the best recordings of a drum sound I've heard that wasn't on a Rush album. Did Terry Brown come over and help? LOL.
@@adamjohnston2311 Mgm Las Vegas 2015 was my last one... thx for vids, oh though i am a massive Rush fan 2nd fav is Deep Purple (burn, highway star) hmmm 🤔😉
Thanks for your kind words. And thanks for watching. Nothing like a little compression in Protools to bring that snare up along with everything else. It really helps.
Thanks Dave. This album is in my blood. I played it when I was in high school and now again 38 years later. This is what you do during a pandemic. Lol.
Great Job Adam. Nice to see it played properly I too love playing this song on the drums. Also Red Sector A and Grand Designs are sooo satisfying Cheers!
WOW! That's is a HUGE compliment. Thank you for your kind words. Rush is so fun the learn and play to. I always aspire to play with a lot of gusto and passion.
@@adamjohnston2311 I played for many years but lost feeling in both my thumbs after brain surgery. I was pissed off for a few months but got over it. Never had the heart to sell my kit though, I may go back to it one day. Groove is in your heart, it’s great to see.
Wow! That is such a bummer. I’m so sorry to hear that. I am suffering from a little tinnitus since I started making these videos. It can suck to get old. I will keep going and making videos as long as I can. It has been great to re learn all these songs I played as a teenager. I’m glad you never sold your kit. Maybe someday you can sit down and do a little doodling. All the best my friend. Be well.
Awesome job, on an awesome song. Just wondering, how many times you saw rush in concert, and in what city. I saw them many times from 1981 to '92 in St Louis MO
Thanks Paul. I saw Rush Tours - Hemispheres, Permanent waves, Moving Pictures, Signals, Power Windows, Roll the bones, Grace under Pressure, Hold your fire, Clockwork Angels. All shows were in Los Angeles.
That was my first Rush show. It completely blew my mind. Pat Travers opened for Rush and he was just as good but in an ass kicking way. Just beyond amazing. Top 10 concert of my life. We went out and bought every Pat Travers album after that concert.
Nice playing, dude! There is something wrong with your snare drum though. It sounds like maybe you have the snares too tight and it is choking off the drum...?
Absolutely killed it great job and can we take a minute to appreciate the engineering. The kit sounds outstanding.
The Professor would be proud 👍
Thanks! You’re too kind.
SWEET BRO. ANOTHER GREAT ONE🤘. R.I.P. NEIL PEART 😇. R.I.P. RUSH 😇😇😇. 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Thanks John! I appreciate it.
The best Rush cover drummer I've seen on youtube. Well done Sir.
WOW! Thanks so much! That means a lot. There are a ton of really good drummers out there to compare to.
Yes this man is good But also CHECK out Kevin Roy.
Nailed it.
no comments more than... great job! well done!!! congrats
Like butter
Thanks!
Oh hells yeah!
Right on Brotha!
The time it takes to learn one Rush song could equal 30-50 other rock songs!
I appreciate the time and energy you took to learn this.
I can see a Rush tribute band brewing!!
Hey, we saw an ELO tribute band and it was $50-60 per ticket. They were amazing and I would see them again.
Only trouble is moving your kit around!!
That was beautiful to listen to (and watch)! 👏
Ditto bro. Well done. Neil would be pleased.. tuned like Neil's kit too.
Thank you Eddie. This was a fun one to cover especially with the cowbells.
Man! You are truly gifted and you are masterful!
Neil's soul lives inside of you bro!
I will never forget!🙏
Thanks so much! Hemispheres is one of all time favorite albums. Thanks for your kind words.

And this why Rush is my fav band, this is why i go to their concerts (used too 😪)
I feel ya Jona. It's was a very sad day when we lost Neil.
@@adamjohnston2311 very sad day... but we have you now, keep drumming , Rush best band ever !!!
I was lucky enough to see the last Rush show in LA at the Forum.
I'm glad you're along for the drum cover Rush ride Jona. Thanks again.
@@adamjohnston2311 Mgm Las Vegas 2015 was my last one... thx for vids, oh though i am a massive Rush fan 2nd fav is Deep Purple (burn, highway star) hmmm 🤔😉
@@jonagib8827 Ian Pace another of one my favorite Rock drummers. So good.
Nice job!
Well done and your drums particularly that snare were tuned perfectly
Thanks for your kind words. And thanks for watching. Nothing like a little compression in Protools to bring that snare up along with everything else. It really helps.
Well done. Nice kit!
Suh-wheet. Again, another great one. I liked Circumstances so much that I had to watch the rest of your videos.
Right on! Keep watching. They are fun : )
Great cover bro.
Nice job dude...drummer here, and I really enjoyed all of that!
Thanks Dave. This album is in my blood. I played it when I was in high school and now again 38 years later. This is what you do during a pandemic. Lol.
@@adamjohnston2311 Most Rush music engrained in my brain too
More cowbell ? No ! That's was awesome ! Greetings from Brazil !
LOL! Thank you!
nice!
Bravo, that was....damn good!
thanks so much!
Great Job Adam. Nice to see it played properly I too love playing this song on the drums. Also Red Sector A and Grand Designs are sooo satisfying Cheers!
Thanks so much. Such a blast to play.
I second Red Sector A!!
In fact, all songs on Grace Under Pressure.
I am lucky to have seen Rush a few times up close.
Excellent
Thanks Mike.
Wow brother your drumming is flawless! Excellent!
Thank you Sir! And thank for watching.
Interpretation and translation are artistic endeavours. You are Rush’s drummer form another dimension. I’d pay to to come watch you play.

Absolutely perfect

If Alex and Geddy ever desired to play live again I hope they call you!!!
You're too kind. Thanks so much for your kind words and watching the video. Rush is a band I grew up with playing to every day after school.
@@adamjohnston2311 you can tell... Every note is played so effortlessly and with finesse... Neil is somewhere smiling!!!
