This is where The Foo Fighters inducted Rush in the rock and roll Hall of fame ! Dave G and Taylor Hawkins gave the speech , for the full music part of the show ,,,Type in Foo fighters playing with Rush at induction
The set for this was Rush’s concert setup from their previous tour in 2012. It’s all Rush. They always have amazing stage sets. They played 3 songs. 2112 Overture (with Foo Fighters), Tom Sawyer, and Spirit of Radio.
If you really want to see a representation of a reaction, watch the scene in the movie Immortal Beloved where Beethoven is presenting for the first time his 9th symphony. He was completely deaf by that time, and he had to be shown that the audience was on their feet. It was one of the best scenes from a movie I've ever seen.
Their stage was definitely part of their Time Machine tour stage. Clockwork Angels is their last album and is a full concept album - accompanied with a novel and is steampunk themed. This was prior to the full album being released though, but there had been two songs released that they played during Time Machine Tour (tour was primarily to celebrate 30th (I believe) anniversary of Moving Pictures release. Cool Easter Egg here though... The time on Neil's base drum is 9:12. Neil's birthday was 9/12. Also, military time for 912 pm is 2112. 😊
I'm a recent interview with Strombo in Canada...Geddy himself said, "I have a weird voice. Our music is the only kind of music that we COULD play. It wouldn't suit anything else." And once again, SalvoG, I have to reiterate...you missing out on some huge songs .. Closer to the Heart Freewill YYZ Roll the Bones The Big Money Distant Early Warning
I was there! Went down to the Rock and Roll HOF induction to see Donna Summer, Heart and Rush be inducted. Chris Cornell inducted Heart and Foo Fighters inducted Rush. The Foos did "Rush drag" and performed a couple of Rush tunes from their really early career then Rush came out and did a few songs (this being one). The place was electric!!! I was getting emotional with all the shout outs to Canada and Toronto. Fun fact: I met Geddy Lee years ago at a theatre in Toronto. He's taller than I thought he'd be...and he's such a nice guy. 🎸🥁🎤😎🤟🤘
I met Geddy at his book signing. Only thing I didn't like about that was I already had his book, brought it with me but they made you buy his book so he could sign it. So I have 2 copies of his Book of Bass. Which isn't terrible but it was terribly expensive. I keep his signed book in the wrapping it came in and I keep the unsigned one on a shelf as sort of a reference guide. But yeah, Geddy was really nice to everyone. He was doing fist bumps which was cool. I told him of how I was a fan of theirs since their first album. I was only 8 years old and I really liked that first album. Fly By Night blew me away. My older brother turned me onto them since I was only 8 at the time and couldn't afford to buy records. Fun times!
This steampunk theme was for their last album Clockwork Angels . It was a full concept album and Rush were always about the details. They actually had a 40 plus year career. I would check out the whole induction right from when they are introduced to The Foo Fighters inducting them which is hilarious to Rush's speech. Alex's is iconic LOL The RRHOF is a joke! So many excellent bands especially those that aren't "Merican" are not in it yet there is rap crap and disco. It took Rush's fans pushing to get them inducted. For Neil's drum solos check out his solo from Frankfurt, also Where's My Thing/ Here it is live in Dallas To see more of their steampunk set and a banger song. Caravan from the Time Machine Tour live in Cleveland Cheers
Salvo if you want blow your mind you most see Niel's Peart solo in Frankfurt live, that's all Bro. And remember each song of RUSH Is unique and full of sorprises. Thank for bringing again good music
I would definitely recommend watching the induction ceremony. It's worth watch repeatedly. Dave and Taylor's love for these guys is a joy to watch but the acceptance speeches are full on entertaining. From Neil's 'indictment' into the HOF to Alex's 'blah blah blahs'. Pure love!
The fans voted them in the hall! Inducted 19 years after they became eligibe Im so glad Neil was alive to be honored. Rush fans kick ass! The hall is a joke!
you know...theres a massive elephant in the room, you havent even ever heard or noticed yet...the elephant in question is called...IRON MAIDEN....give em a reaction...u will not be dissapointed...to tip your toe in the water..i recommend HALLOWED BE THY NAME...or the..TROOPER
I appreciate your enthusiasm and love of Rush. The first time I saw them live was during the Signals tour. Absolutely mind blowing. They sounded exactly like the album, and every time I saw them they sounded exactly the same. Beyond that brilliance was watch two roadies spinning the drum set like a merry-go-round while Neil did his solo, flipping sticks straight up in the air - and catching them in full spin - without missing a beat or a snare or a high hat or a drum fill. Absolutely phenomenal band! You should do the entire 2112 album. The “three-man orchestra” at their very best.🔥🤙
If I remember correctly, they did not use their regular sound board. RRHOF had their own system in place and they had to play off of that. It's why it sounds so compressed. In an arena, with their own sound equipment and engineers... They sounded AWESOME! I always loved the little ending they added to this. Very hard and in your face but also simplistic as well. Love these guys! There will never be another band like them!
I think you need to get your hearing checked. Geddy's voice here is atrocious. Still love him and Rush, but his voice isn't what it was, and hasn't been for at least 20 years. That's not a criticism, it's just nature. Vocalists have a much more finite span of time to be great. His voice has always been very polarizing, and I believe the reason they weren't more successful in the first place. Even I have a hard time listening to Rush aside from instrumentals, before moving pictures, and definitely before hemispheres. Maybe that's why I enjoyed their 90s material so much.
"It sounds like they rehearsed this song like 1,000 times." Well, pretty much - I think they played it at every concert since the song came out, plus all the rehearsals, sound-checks, and whatever else. 1,000 times is not an unreasonable estimate.
I will never, ever forget the ovation they got when they were announced in the opening of this ceremony. After decades of loving a band that was not, generally, considered "cool" by the mainstream, to see them finally receive that level of adulation was an exceptionally emotional experience. The fans all knew how much they were loved, as did the band themselves, but for the rest of the world to witness just how much these three blokes meant to us all... it was beautiful. I'll never forget Geddy's wife's face, as she sat, eyes wide, with her hand over her mouth. It was a supremely special moment.
How in the world have you not seen working Man live from Cleveland every other reactors done at 20 times lol! Just joking but you really do need to see it
You can tell that GEDDY is older here as he can't really belt out those high notes... They were successful because they didn't squabble - they did things democratically - they had a clear definition of who did what - Peart wrote the Lyrics - Lee and Lifeson wrote the music.

The most amazing thing about Neil's drum kit is that he actually used everything; nothing was there just for show.
He was like that his whole career continually growing into himself one of a kind
Every drum has a purpose.
If you really want to see a representation of a reaction, watch the scene in the movie Immortal Beloved where Beethoven is presenting for the first time his 9th symphony. He was completely deaf by that time, and he had to be shown that the audience was on their feet. It was one of the best scenes from a movie I've ever seen.
You want to really appreciate how great Rush is just try to listen to bands, professional bands trying to cover Rush’s music:)
I know I've said this many many times to you. These 3 guys are the fucking best. The absolute fucking best...
They were on tour at the time so the set was a scaled down version of their tour set up. It was the Time Machine Tour
Their stage was definitely part of their Time Machine tour stage. Clockwork Angels is their last album and is a full concept album - accompanied with a novel and is steampunk themed. This was prior to the full album being released though, but there had been two songs released that they played during Time Machine Tour (tour was primarily to celebrate 30th (I believe) anniversary of Moving Pictures release.

I WAS THERE!!!!!
It’s 40+ years not 30+ years. I really wish you knew the history of Rush. AlsoGetty does not sound the same.
I put 30 based on the time of this performance
Should definitely check out their acceptance speeches for this . Alex was so hilarious .. Hope you are keeping well Salvo 🥰
Rush YYZ live in RIO will blow your mind ... its magical!
You don’t have to react to it, but you should really check out their whole induction ceremony.
I'm a recent interview with Strombo in Canada...Geddy himself said, "I have a weird voice. Our music is the only kind of music that we COULD play. It wouldn't suit anything else."
And once again, SalvoG, I have to reiterate...you missing out on some huge songs ..
Closer to the Heart
Freewill
YYZ
Roll the Bones
The Big Money
Distant Early Warning
Have you seen the introduction and the audience response yet. Alex’s speech is unique
lol blah blah...

Salvo, you should watch their "Working Man" from their 2011 Cleveland Time Machine tour - you will not be disappointed.
This steampunk theme was for their last album Clockwork Angels . It was a full concept album and Rush were always about the details.
They actually had a 40 plus year career. I would check out the whole induction right from when they are introduced to The Foo Fighters inducting them which is hilarious to Rush's speech. Alex's is iconic LOL

For Neil's drum solos check out his solo from Frankfurt, also Where's My Thing/ Here it is live in Dallas
To see more of their steampunk set and a banger song.
Caravan from the Time Machine Tour live in Cleveland
Cheers
Salvo if you want blow your mind you most see Niel's Peart solo in Frankfurt live, that's all Bro. And remember each song of RUSH Is unique and full of sorprises.
Thank for bringing again good music
You have to do thrive Cleveland Working Man!
It's a MUST!!!!!!!!
True Legends!! Check out Working man live in Cleveland ☺️
I would definitely recommend watching the induction ceremony. It's worth watch repeatedly. Dave and Taylor's love for these guys is a joy to watch but the acceptance speeches are full on entertaining. From Neil's 'indictment' into the HOF to Alex's 'blah blah blahs'. Pure love!
The fans voted them in the hall! Inducted 19 years after they became eligibe Im so glad Neil was alive to be honored. Rush fans kick ass! The hall is a joke!
I am still in disbelief that Neil is gone. Seriously, I always feel that he is still here. I guess in our hearts and minds, he is.
45+ years of mastery they released their debut self-titled album in 1972
I wouldn't call the first few years mastery LOL
Hey Buddy! If you Look Close at the Clock, on the Bass drum, it reads "9:12"..... convert that into Military Time and you'll GET the Reference!!
have to watch masters of renaissance with Neil Peart the making of his drum set wow wow wow R40 drum kit
Please react to Paul Mccartney - Monkberry moon delight
In their later years, they included laundry machines on stage to remind everyone to keep it clean.
Omg !😂👌🏻
Yes! I saw them on the Clockwork Angels tour and the washing machines on stage were a humorous touch !
They also had rotisserie ovens with actual whole chickens cooking in them. They would give the chickens to local food banks and homeless shelters.👍
@@jonlate4581 oh ye s I remember! I didn't know they gave the chickens to the homeless. What a lovely thing to do. Those three guys are amazing.
Also playing pedals my friend you left that one out lol
Geddy also plays floor pedals
Sure miss the next album from year to year. I'm a veteran old shit that likes too play air drums. Rush on!
Beethoven was a rockstar in his time. Can you imagine being in the audience when he was performing some of his works himself, before he went deaf?
you know...theres a massive elephant in the room, you havent even ever heard or noticed yet...the elephant in question is called...IRON MAIDEN....give em a reaction...u will not be dissapointed...to tip your toe in the water..i recommend HALLOWED BE THY NAME...or the..TROOPER
Then watch the performance of both songs and you'll see all of that.....kinda feels like you gave up on Rush🤔🇨🇦

This was during the middle of the Clockwork Angels tour. So, they were playing this every other night.
If I remember correctly, they did not use their regular sound board. RRHOF had their own system in place and they had to play off of that. It's why it sounds so compressed. In an arena, with their own sound equipment and engineers... They sounded AWESOME! I always loved the little ending they added to this. Very hard and in your face but also simplistic as well. Love these guys! There will never be another band like them!
Checkout Where s My Thing?/ Here It Is! (drum solo) - Live in Dallas from the Clockwork Angels tour for a good look at the set.
NOW you have to react to YYZ Live in Rio! It will blow your mind!!!!

Check out the Foo fighters on this Induction show they dress up as Rush play first as they are playing Rush joins in ,
How in the world have you not seen working Man live from Cleveland every other reactors done at 20 times lol! Just joking but you really do need to see it
You should watch the induction.
You can tell that GEDDY is older here as he can't really belt out those high notes... They were successful because they didn't squabble - they did things democratically - they had a clear definition of who did what - Peart wrote the Lyrics - Lee and Lifeson wrote the music.
He belted them out just fine
Great pause on the drum set lol.
You look like josh Groben
RIP Neil
