Oh but Charis, you MUST do a reaction to Alex LIfeson's speech at the Hall of Fame induction .. and understand the back story being that RUSH has been denied induction into the Hall of Fame for decades, while some of the worst "Rock" bands in the world were inducted before them. Fans have been pissed about this for decades. You have to see Alex speaking at their induction. It is beyond EPIC .. absolutely killer!
The complete induction ceremony is great, as many have mentioned! Their performance is spectacular as always! I noticed Alex was playing taurus pedals during Tom Sawyer. Geddy & Neil are always given credit for mutitasking on stage, but Alex does it too!
The drum decoration represents the tour they were doing at that time, in support of their 19th and final studio album, Clockwork Angels. It depicts a clock marked with alchemical symbols instead of numbers. It displays the time as 9:12, which in 24-hour time is 21:12, a reference to the band's 4th studio album, 2112. They used a steam punk aesthetic for all of the designs for Clockwork Angels.
The symbols on the clockface represent the following: 1:00 Brimstone 2:00 Purification 3:00 Mercury 4:00 Winter 5:00 Zinc 6:00 Sun 7:00 Aquarius 8:00 Essence 9:00 Neptune - also depicted on Geddy's bass on the Time Machine Tour and the Clockwork Angels Tour 10:00 Lead 11:00 Earth 12:00 Copper As early as the mid 2000s, Geddy was finding it increasingly difficult to hit the high notes that he'd written into their earlier songs, so the songs on Clockwork Angels were written in a lower key to utilize the lower end of his vocal range; top performance picks to demonstrate this include Caravan from the Time Machine Tour and The Garden from the Clockwork Angels Tour. Have a beautiful evening, and Rush on! 🎤 🎹 🎸 🥁 🎸 🐐 🐐 🐐
I actually think he's singing on this is great for the situation. That has this quality that makes me think of a mix of some Richard Hell, and young Bono on the first couple U2 albums, and other bands of that era.
Rush basically used this induction ceremony performance as a warm up gig for their Clockwork Angels Tour. The first leg of the tour was completed in December of 2012. They took a break, and resumed the tour in April of 2013. Specifically, this performance was recorded on April 18th 2013, at the Nokia Theater in Los Angeles, and on April 23rd they played their first gig of the second leg of the tour at the Frank Erwin Center in Austin, Texas. Charis mentioned how much stamina the band seemed to have during this show - 5 days later they played their usual 3 hour set. After the Counterparts tour in 1993, Rush played all of their shows without opening acts.
I WAS THERE! I lived in Phoenix and bought a ticket as soon as they went on sale ($450) and then drove the 6 hours to L.A. to the Nokia center to watch it live in the audience. It was one of the best days of my life. I met Spike Lee and Tommy Morello (Rage against the machine), there were SO many celebrities there! Even Chris Cornell (Inducted Heart) and John Mayer (Inducted ALbert King). SO many people payed that night. it was magical, i am honored to say that i was one of only like 5,000 people that were live there witnessing history.
Damn, they're good! Didn't get into them before the era represented by those songs. Jammed with 'Moving Pictures' when a housemate brought it home in '81, Toronto's west end. Love to CFNY-FM radio 102.1, Brampton, ON, Canada 🇨🇦 "The Spirit of Radio". 🖖🏼😅🎶❤️✨️🕊
I can only imagine most of the audience was blown away, I doubt many of them had ever seen Rush. As far as I know they never changed anything musically. Neil notoriously changed his drumming style late in his carrer with the guidance of a Jazz drummer. His style changed but he played everything note for note the same.
She singlehandedly instituted RUSH-MAS, starting last year. What a Woman! I Celebrate THE TWELVE DAYS OF RUSH-MAS (December 11th - 22nd), but it's more of a personal thing. AND RUSH-MAS DOESN'T INTERFERE WITH CHRISTMAS or even FESTIVUS (23rd), IT ENHANCES IT. This years RUSH-MAS was, and is, a tremendous success...to the point some of my acquaintances are starting to get concerned, me being in my early 60s. Next December, I going to put up my first RUSH-MAS Tree!
The symbols are Alchemy symbols. It always reminded me of a cross of astrology, chemistry, and a dash of snake oil salesmanship. Although they're all pretty similar, Alchemist's would have their own symbols for different metals as well as astrological signs. If you have the time? Check out the guy who ran the RRHOF (forget his name) read off the people who are being inducted. When he says "and from Toronto." The audience goes CRAZY! It's pretty cool. Enjoyed the reaction 😊 Take care ✌🏻
Info sez that the Rush tribute band in wigs in the beginning playing '2112' was Foo Fighters' Dave Grohl (guitar) and (the late) Taylor Hawkins (drums) w/ their producer Nick Raskulinecz (bass) ... Raskulinecz also produced 2 Rush albums ('Snakes & Arrows'... and 'Clockwork Angels') Yes, singers and musicians have to step down the keys to songs when they perform at an older age... or slow it down a bit... Rob Halford of Judas Priest ... Paul Stanley of Kiss... and Sammy Hagar come to mind... If u watch AC/DC perform live in 2024, Angus Young (lead guitar) is 69... and Brian Johnson (vocals) is 77... and they have to tone down the speed and intensity from the AC/DC studio versions a bit. I remember watching Judas Priest in concert in 2006/ '09 and they had dropped the tempos of some songs a bit; years later, they revealed that lead guitarist Glenn Tipton was suffering from Parkinson's disease and retired from touring in 2018.
First of all, i love Rush and the Foos, so this always brings me joy. I come to you with a request to check out Jacob Collier. He has so many sides, and every one is brilliant. For a dip into his live performance brilliance, Little Blue from the Mahogany Sessions is absolutely spine tingling in the best way. From there, you can pick almost anything he has done and will have your mind blown again.
Oh boo...I was wanting your reaction to the speeches the boys gave. Alex's speech will go down in history as one of the most unique, ever! Still, enjoyed this reaction too.
The following year, the band Yes was inducted into the R&RHoF... The musicians who inducted Yes were Alex and Geddy, as Yes were one of their greatest influences. Unfortunately, it took so long for the R&RHoF to nominate Yes, that one of Geddy's top bass influences, Chris Squire, had died.
They were 60 years old in this HOF performance. And yes, Geddy would struggle at times in their latter years. You watch some of their latest live stuff in 2015 and there were times Geddy was on his game and other times not so much. If God is nice to you (I see no reason why he wouldn't), you'll find 30 years old (when they recorded those songs) is different than 60 years old. Nice reaction Ms Charis!
Please react to the whole induction starting with when they they were first announced to Dave Grohl's and Taylor Hawkin's inducting them and their induction speeches especially Alex's. As someone else said Alex's speech is performance art. Cheers
The album cover for Clockwork Angels has those symbols on it (the runes). I actually don't know what these symbols mean. I know A LOT about Rush but that is one thing I do not know, alas.
@@seanpaula8924 and don t miss out on SEBASTIAN BACH in TPB S7 E4 when he meets the boys and helps smuggle weed over the border using PATRICK SWAYZE S model train
Foo Fighters Dave Grohl and Taylor Hawkins performed the induction. The speeches were amazing, as everyone will tell you, especially Alex who blah blah blah blah blah blah blah! Blah!
Really, really needed to see the induction speeches (including the initial one given by Dave Grohl and Taylor Hawkins). Dave Grohl (on guitar) was first the drummer for Nirvana and then the founder of Foo Fighters. Taylor Hawkins (on drums) was first the drummer for Alanis Morrisette and then the drummer for Foo Fighters. The guy on the base was Nick Raskulinecz, who produced Snakes and Arrows and Clockwork Angels for Rush. PS - The Garden live in Dallas. The Garden live in Dallas. The Garden live in Dallas.
my wife new taylor from the alannis tour. he was the sweetest guy. just beyond kind. always thanked and remembered sue and i. just as sweet as every one else says. just such a loss of positive beautiful energy to our existence
@@CharisSellick No, I was about 5 rows back. You had to be there to capture the entire atmosphere of the night. The video released of the ceremony got cut. Example: Chuck D of Public Enemy opened their induction performance with a statement. "We all know why we are here!". Then they opened their musical segment scratching the opening of Tom Sawyer.
Charis, please do a reaction to all-female band *Plush* . Plush was formed in 2020 by singer/guitarist/songwriter Moriah Formica. They have released 1 album and 1 EP each supported by nation-wide tours consisting of club shows, festival appearances and opening for acts like Evanescence, Halestorm, Disturbed, Kiss, Slash, SevenDust, The Warning, Doughtry, Alice In Chains and more. This is their most recent single "Run" It reached #26 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock chart. ua-cam.com/video/ywr9RBxnFGU/v-deo.htmlsi=Fvcy7N03RPaODzh1
Charis this is cathy my son Wintersun Alex is your subscriber he left a suggestion for you to react to my favorite symphonic metal band Wintersun for sons of winter and stars 1.5 official lyric video from Wintersun jari UA-cam channel he made the suggestion because I have breast cancer and it would make me feel better if you reacted to it so if you could send me a reply and confirmation back to let me know. Thank you Cathy and Wintersun Alex ❄️🫶
Charice, yes, you will one day not be able to hit those notes. You will not be able to fly up them stairs like you used to. You will find yourself older and wearing down. Your mind will easily remember how your body used to be, but your body will say, "yeah, I can't do that anymore. I can do this though🥴" Time stops for no one. It doesn't even "hold up for a moment". It marches the fuck on, without missing a step. You'll see, soon enough. WAY sooner than you think.
You finally mention their stamina. Dudes would play 3 hour sets i think, even when they got older and started to ache. Not even most modern groups do that kind of set.
And we’re talking technical musicians doing the hard work they do, doing several things at once…for 3 hours. I’d have got lost on what I was doing after the first 30 mins 😂
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is a pathetic joke, for years they kept RUSH off the ballot, saying that RUSH wasnt Rock and Roll, meanwhile letting in artists from Soul and Pop

Arch the MC introducing all the artists being inducted that night. It will blow your mind
The guy in the white suit dancing near the stage was Flava Flav. Public Enemy got inducted that night too
Charis, do yourself a favor, and watch the whole Rush induction ceremony.
I WAS THERE! I lived in Phoenix and bought a ticket as soon as they went on sale ($450) and then drove the 6 hours to L.A. to the Nokia center to watch it live in the audience. It was one of the best days of my life. I met Spike Lee and Tommy Morello (Rage against the machine), there were SO many celebrities there!

SO many people payed that night. it was magical, i am honored to say that i was one of only like 5,000 people that were live there witnessing history.
Its the FOO FIGHTERS.. Dave grohl guitar.. Taylor Hawkins drums
Great reaction! The runes are alchemical symbols that refer to the album they were working on at the time, "Clockwork Angels".
Damn, they're good!
Didn't get into them before the era represented by those songs.

Their Time Machine dvd is great, there is a "band" called RASH.

David Grohl from Foo Fighters along with Taylor Hawkins
Their induction from David Grohl and the late great Taylor Hawkins is epic as well. "Who lets the drummer write the lyrics"
it's about your honesty

Its not a pentagram, those are upside down, this is the red star from 2112
Please watch, "Rock and Roll Hall of Fame: Jann Wenner (2013 Clip) | HBO" to see how Rush was really represented...
You should watch it all Dave growl announces them
