It's just a funny gimmick to replace the walls of amplifiers that, thanks to modern tech, are no longer needed to perform a large-scale concert. One year it was a row of chicken rotisseries. In both cases, a roadie would come onstage and either baste the chickens or gather the laundry. Gotta love Rush. I'm sad it's over, but I completely understand why.
Shania Twain I can understand ...
but Neil Peart????

Nice rainbow sticker .... Lord knows rainbows have many meanings these days. Rush - Queen - Judas Priest. Rock on.
Are the Rush guys gay? Never knew that.
I don’t think so. Just Canadian.
Doug, you are suspended!!
But thanks for staritng a great thread and bringing out some true RUSH fans. What other band could play live like that, cook chicken or do laundry at the same time!
Even people who don't necessarily appreciate the sound they made, can't deny what tremendous musicians these guys are. All three were at the top of their game for decades. They were never just some 70's nostalgia act. They were constantly making great new music. There are maybe two other drummers who I can think of who are even in Neil Peart's universe. He wrote all but three (I believe) of the band's songs since joining them after their first album. And as mentioned he's a brilliant author of several books and enthusiastic motorcyclist.
Drew, that clip from the R30 tour is one of my favorites. They killed it.
Excellent!
I try to get a Neil Peart tribute shot almost every time I go on a MC trip. Silly huh...
Buddy Rich would be one. Who is the otherThere are maybe two other drummers who I can think of who are even in Neil Peart's universe.

I think that you are pulling my leg like I was pulling your leg.
Thank you. I had never listened to Rush until high school a buddy that had a old Kawasaki turned me on to them.Phenomenal choice of clips, KP!
What what??? I saw Rush for the Moving Pictures Tour. Neil easily did a 15-20min drum solo. Now when they play in the car, my wife asks who the woman is that is singing. Neil's book blew though. I tried to like it but could not. I guess it is tough to be a writer when you are a world class drummer and cycle rider.Drew, a couple of important points, first I never listen to Rush as I don't really like their music, second I really don't know who the guy is and that song you just linked to was why.
