Alex, Geddy and Neil never fell prey to either (a) drug abuse or (b) egocentrism. That, in my view, is one of the primary reasons they've lasted so long.
They never quite reached the level of superstardom, but I doubt they wanted to. That just wasn't their personality. As a general rule it is, I think, preferable to have, say, 15 gold records over the course of 20 or so years than a few multi-platinum albums over the course of five or six years. There's no substitute for that kind of longevity.
David L No offense intended toward you. Just saying that this isn't the entire documentary. It would've been helpful if you'd have directed me to where I could view it in it's entirety...without childish name calling.
Billy Corgan has it dead right. This is a band with 24 gold albums, 14 platinum albums (and 8 of those in a row), more than Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, AC/DC, Hendrix, Springsteen, Tom Petty, Clapton, Queen, The Who, Neil Young, Prince, and so many others. Yet, they've been deliberately written out of the history of rock, because they're polarizing. It's a huge injustice to them.
It's because they do what they want and not what anyone else wants, which in the end makes their fans love them even more, and the music "establishment" hate them more.
Actually its just because the media disliked them, and as you have been witnessing since about 2004 now, the media literally controls and rules the world.
The media usually hates most prog bands. They've hated Rush, Yes, ELP, Genesis, King Crimson. Nowadays, some of them have changed their minds on these bands, but you see how long it's taken those bands to get into the RnRHoF, for example. Yet, each of these bands have been major influences of the bands that have gotten in before them. Strange.
Didnt the media also hated Zeppelin, Queen, Sabbath, Kiss, Deep Purple, etc? Somehow the only rock band (besides The Beatles, offcourse) that always got good reviews was The Stones and The Who.
Biff Dinkley without that "polarizing" and lack of mainstream attention cultivated an even larger magnitude of credibility among true listeners, catapulting their influence even deeper and broader into artists that enjoyed them. Ie: there wouldn't be any Tool without Rush. (Just one example)... The TRUE talented artists exceed without the approval of the lowest common denominator component of the masses approval.
Been to two of their concerts. If you had a chance to to see them, consider yourself lucky. It was everything I expected, which was awesome. True musician's band.
Isn't that the truth. My dad took my over to Canada to see them play a month after I graduated high school for my graduation present. And still one of the greatest concerts I have ever been too with the most awesome memories at that show and that was almost 10 years ago
@Shawnfella ~ Because all the "Taste - mongers" at "Rolling Stone" magazine at the time, had a huge bias against "Prog Rock" and "Heavy Metal" and music that wasn't considered popular music..."RUSH" fit that criteria...That's why today, you have Cardi"oh-kerrrr" B , Sia,and Katy Perry on their covers...
he's knows of what he speaks. He toured with them! Even tho they were very different types of rock bands they had a healthy respect for each other. I always thought that was really cool.
when you take the best drummer of all time: neal peart, one of the top 10 guitarists of all time: alex lifeson, and one of the top 5 bass guitarists of all time: geddy lee and put them in a band you get technically and objectively the best band of all time.
First time I heard Rush. I found a cassette tape at my sisters house. Hemispheres. I couldn't believe this much music was produced by only three people. Each a master of their own domain.
Michael 732 damn dude! For me it was my sister's copy of permanent waves that I'm sure some d-bag loaned her! But for me, it was all over. Rush forever
My first was my mom playing 2112 all the time. Even that young I learned to appreciate greatness in music. I even have 2112 tattooed on my arm. Thanks mom for teaching me about great music
It really says something about Rush that the only reason, THE ONLY reason, why they broke up recently, was not because of creative differences or huge egos. It was just because of old age. Peart just couldn't play the drums like the powerhouse he was back then. The fact that they've disbanded just recently, after over 40 years of performing together, goes to show that Rush should be a band to be sought as a gold standard for future generations of bands/artists to come. Drugs don't make a band, it's a genuine passion for music and performance.
I wouldn't say they broke up. Neil was diagnosed with a glioblastoma and battled it for the last 3 1/2 years of his life. I think they were kinda had their hand forced.
@@TrainWreck444 He wasn't diagnosed until after the R40 tour. No, they were very open about it. The shows simply destroyed him physically; he couldn't go on.
@@a2ndopynyn I was saying the band didnt really "break up" they just couldn't physically do it. I was just stating that because I feel those things are two vastly different things. When I hear "break up" it implys resentment to one another... not we've been doing this so long we physically cant anymore, to me thats retirement and very few bands stay together long enough to do it.
@@TrainWreck444 Agreed; I was simply pointing out that it was Neil's physical exhaustion, not his cancer, which pushed them into retirement. His knees, ankles, feet, shoulders, etc. simply couldn't take the strain any longer.
@@pauljohnson3340 Actually, that's fair. I watched some episodes of Family Jewels and I did find him to be very thoughtful even when he was trying to be a troublemaker. And he seemed like a genuinely kind person. I withdraw my previous comment.
I was 15 years old back in 1975 and very much into rock & roll at the time. One of the bands that I was into at the time was Uriah Heap. So when they had a concert in Duluth Minnesota in 1975, myself and a handful of buddies decided to travel the 60 miles to go see them. I did not know how much that night would change my life musically. The opening band that night was a trio who called themselves "Rush". I had never heard of them before. They had about an hour of stage time that night. The next day, I went to my local music store and purchased all the albums they had produced at that time - Rush, Fly By Night, & Caress of Steel. Then a month or two later out came 2112. Then bought a bass guitar and amp. Cannot fathom that there will ever be another Rush album now that Neil is gone. As Geddy said "No Neil, No Rush".
Cool story! To see them as an opening act. I got introduced to them when Permanent Waves came out. I was hooked. I didn't miss a single Florida show for the next 3.5 decades. I got to take my daughter's to their first concert on the Snakes and Arrows tour. That topped the list of my favorite shows with my 2 girls there with me. They loved it too!
I watched an interview years ago with Geddy... He said "This is my job..... it's how I make a living.". He was so laid back..... like he was going to work at a factory. I've never heard a rock star talk like that which was awesome.
I was born in 1968. In 1981 I heard Tom Sawyer and my world changed forever. Permanent Waves, Moving Pictures and the Exit, Stage Left were all there for us to listen to and it was even more shocking to learn that all this sound was coming from 3 dudes! What a freaking band.
I was able to talk my local parks dept into letting us name all mountain bike trails that we're building after various Rush songs...just doing a small part getting this music in front potential new fans for generations to come.
In Toronto there is a laneway that runs west from Spadina ave between queen st and richmond st that has graffiti along it unofficially known as Rush alley.
You'd have to add April Wine for the trifecta. They're still playing arenas for New Years Eve somewhere, usually in Ontario, like Oshawa, every year. There was a time you'd always see show bills in Ontario for April Wine, Max Webster and David Wilcox at the one go. Wilcox is still working, bless him. He was a nut bar in the 70's and 80's, and talented like shit.
Charliebrm1: Wilcox used to play the Knob Hill on Eglinton Ave East all the time. I never saw April Wine live though. Such a great band. Teenage Head and Goddo played my high School.
For some unexplainable reason, I find joy whenever I get to read about people, all over the world, when they describe their experience when they heard Rush for the first time. It´s an experience impossible to be repeated, really. I'm 59 years old, and when I heard Rush the first time I was 20 years old, back in Houston, at a friends house, playing pool, drinking beer, and getting tuned up to hit the bars that night. Man....I was in shock when my friend played Moving Pictures....it turned out that I stayed at my friends apartment listening to that record a thousand times, while my friends went out....I was so sure that out there, it could not possibly get any better than this.....ever since I listen to rush everyday of my life and still find new things and sounds in their complex music, not to mention their senseful lyrics. What a gift of life to have them...
Saw Hemispheres tour at MapleLeaf Gardens in Toronto. fantastic show then after moving to houston in the 80s have seen all of the Texas tours since then Its funny seeing people bringing their kids to shows introducing them to awesome talent
proof that theres no better way to talk about rush than to sing their melodies or imitate the drums.. you can feel the genuine happiness in all of these legends
Me, a high school student here in Brazil. In 1988 I was 12 years old. I had been listening to rock for two years, I remember getting my first LP, Brothers in Arms from Dire Straits. Amazing! When I changed schools, a colleague asked me: What do you like to hear? Dire Straits! Then he said, good face! but I'll introduce you to something then, and gave me a cassette tape from a Rush guy, I'd never heard of it. (Album Permanent Waves). I was crazy, I was buying the albums as much as possible. In the '90s, as rush had never come in South America, I managed to realize the dream of going to their show in Ontario / 1997. fortunately in the 200's Rush decided to come for the first time in South America. 60,000 people at the Pacaembu stadium) and I was also at the closing of this Vapor trail tour and DVD recording at the Maracanã / Rio de Janeiro stadium, 40,000 people)
You were in that sea of hooligans jumping to YYZ?!?! That right there was RUSH history! I know the band was blown away by the enthusiasm you guys showed them that night!
Rush has been and will continue to be my favorite band of all time. Their friendship is great, their history, their musicianship. Rush is more than just their music and that speaks volumes.
I'll tell you this... EVERY metalhead back in the day had Rush in their collection. They are a top 10 rock band of all time and NO metalhead would disagree...period.
I'll tell you why they're there. They're there, because even though the commercial world just couldn't take Geddy's voice, every last aspiring musician that ever heard them didn't give a shit less. Did you hear those drums? Bass? Guitar? Pedals? Keyboards? That's three guys! Next thing you know, Geddy's voice has grown on you and even that is awesome! What I love, is decades later, seeing young people hear it for the first time and fall just as much in love with it as we did. Timeless, incredible music that influenced music as much as any of them.
They were the worst critics and offenders of musicians. STYX is a perfect example. They always hated and chastised STYX and people would go along with it. Then the South Park Episode baooened. Trey Parker is a huge STYX fan and with Cartman singing Lady and the trend of it, STYX is now considered cool. Even before all of that, I enjoyed STYX. I still love them.
In the end, Rush got the love and respect they deserved. They did it their way for 40+ years, how many people get to say that? I saw them about a half a dozen times, and they never once short changed the audience.
Walked into chapters in Ajax to buy a gift for my daughter. There’s a music section that sells records. Looked for rush in the “r” section. Nothing!! Turned around. They had a recommended section by employees. Rush exit stage left and a beautiful book. Smiles big time. 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
MY best Rush Memory: Omaha Civic Auditorium... Rush is playing "Spirit of the Radio"... and when he gets to "...Concert Halls.." they place just explodes! I still get goosebumps remembering it.
I remember my Brother showing me Rush Hemispheres listening to them on headphones and just being blown away, my Brother said "Listen how powerful His voice is coming out of this tiny guy" Rush has this effect on me that if I'm down I immediately cheer up listening to them. By far the best band in history, I loved that many people didn't get it.
One of the best documentaries ever made, one of the greatest bands ever made, 3 of the coolest dudes ever. Neil was a legendary drummer and an incredible writer, so knowledgeable and well read, his lyrics could and should be recognized separately in a poetic sphere.
Rush is/are their own entity......llove um ....Neil Peart lost his daughter and wife within 10 months a part , round 1997 ....sad stuff but great book Neil wrote....been a fan since the album 2112
I first saw Rush open for KISS ! In 1974 ! Seattle Paramount They played Tacoma Bicentennial Pavilion in '76, and met them at a record store. They were SO gracious... and hilarious ! I made Alex laugh at something, and he invited me backstage that night. Have since met them every tour... so far !!! ;-)
Rush were such good musicians, their songs so well written and with so many layers of depth, that they needed nothing but their music to become legendary. No gimmicks of any kind. In fact they were rather nerdy by rock star standards...according to Gene Simmons, kiss and Rush were on the same bill at one time and while Kiss were doing their groupie thing backstage, Rush were reading books...lmao...and reading stuff like Issac Asimov. That kind of image never bothered fans of Rush in the least.
@@hugolafhugolaf there's no denying that in Kiss' prime from the mid to late 70's, they were the shit. ACDC and Rush didn't pop nationally until back in black and spirit of the radio in the early 80's.
If you went to see them live, you could tell that they played every note in every song with no BS. They'd throw in some extra stuff just so you knew it was live, but they could play their entire catalog perfect, every last time they performed ...if they wanted to... and the stuff they were playing would kill a mere mortal. When Alex Lifeson is the third best musician in your band and still god, you are in a legendary place...
The absolutely most amazing part is EVERYBODY who likes or loves Rush has a story about them. They have amassed such a following but everybody who has been struck by them, feels it personally like Rush was speaking to them. That's incredible. Oh, my story is 2112 was the first album I got and I saw them with Mr.Big outside at Great Woods on the Roll the Bones tour.
The rock critics hate em but I grew up on Rush here in Melbourne,Australia,I never got the chance to see them live sobs,have all their vinyl and then cds,Moving Pictures is a perfect rock album. I am a prog fan so I loved the longer pieces of Hemispheres and the darkness of side two of Caress Of Steel but Moving Pictures is perfection in a record. As a drummer,I used to study every beat of Neil Peart while holding the inner sleeve lyric sheet reading his lyrics,they were my incense stick,I didn’t need drugs to listen to Rush,they were my drug. Geddy Lee’s voice polarises alot of people much like Corgan’s voice,you either love it or hate it,I’m in the love camp with both vocalists as I am a huge fan of the Pumpkins as well,Mellon Collie hit me the same way Moving Pictures did. The mainstream radio stations down here still to this day refuse to play Rush,there is a real snob against prog rock down here which pisses me right off but especially Rush,you wouldn’t jnow they existed,I actually got into Rush through a school mate who immigrated from Manchester,England and told me about them,I was hooked ever since. There is now a massive underground Aussie fanbase here. I fully understand why they didn’t tour here,they didn’t want to jeapordise their show and bringing a sow that size to Australia would be pretty hard,we are a long way away. I was in a heavy band back around 1983 and we did a few Rush covers,Xanadu,Limelight,Tom Sawyer,my band mates who never heard of Rush who were massive Zep fans got the Rush drug after a lent them some albums. Crazy they aren’t held in the same regard as The Beatles and Led Zeppelin.
That's funny, in high school in 1981, the two most popular bands were AC(DC and Rush. One band thrived by being simple, and one band thrived by pushing music to the limit. Tom Sawyer's drum piece was about as complicated as it gets. Never get tired of listening to that song.
@@mikekiss648: I love Rush, especially the earlier stuff, but I saw them in about '87 and was disappointed. The music was good, but there was pretty much no show... like you could have listened to it in your living room and gotten as much out of it.
Mike Kiss: Yeah, video I've seen of R30 and R40 looked like a completely different stage. Of course, they're still not crazy in their showmanship, they're crazy in how well they do what they do.
I remember when Rush played Marathon live and Alex played the solo exactly the way he composed it...I looked at the the face of my friend, guitar player in our band and 100% Serbian, just like Alex. His face just melted with awesomeness in a state of total guitar nirvana.
I liked that when they stopped 4 minute radio songs and were told by the managers they needed to stick to the formula, Rush fired their managers. Geddy Lee was one of the bassists that made me want to play bass. Practicing Rush songs was a hard lesson in "learn fast or quit". I didn't quit.
Yes, it is a great documentary, have watched it a lot. It really made me become a big fan because I started listening to their music after I saw what cool, funny guys they were. The music blew me away and still does.
I found a cassette called Exit Stage Left when I was about 13 yrs old . It was in my brothers Gremlin . I took it up to my room and listened to it and I was instantly interested . I thought it was the best live band I'd ever heard. I loved Rush from that point on and wanted to see them live . I finally got to see them on the Snakes and Arrows tour , nearly 30 years after finding that cassette. . And I wasn't disappointed.
Saw S&A tour with my best friend before he passed. It was our last concert together. I was the youngest of the family growing up in Maine. Most of the family was into music in one form or another (playing or bad ass stereo systems). I'm 53 now and dont remember a time without Rush.
2112 did it for me and I fell in love with long songs 10 mins plus as far as length went. My old man loved Rush and all rock that had progressive elements to it.
I saw the Moving Pictures Tour in Detroit, Michigan. This band blew me away with the ability to execute their musical precision and fantastic tone in a live setting. You never forget that. Not many other bands i had seen in my concert year attendance could do it so well imo.
That was only the third concert I'd ever been to. I can't believe I was 15 years old and just starting to appreciate rock and roll more and more. The first four concerts I ever went to were. Freddy Fender at the Magic Mountain Amphitheater in California, 1977. Van Halen at the Pit, in Albuquerque, New Mexico, 1980. Rush at Tingley Coliseum, Albuquerque, New Mexico, 1981. Rolling Stones at Folsom Field, Colorado University, Boulder, Colorado, 1981.
One of the things that made rush great is that they were progressive enough to be intetesting to music nerds but they never were fret wankers or showoffs. Even the longer pieces they wrote had great substance
In 1979 i went for the 1st time to see RUSH (Permanant Waves) San Antonio TX the next day i had to buy 2112 at that concert the connection between the fans and 2112 was unbelievable i listened and then understood what had happened to me, When Moving Pictures came about when i heard THE CAMERA EYE it was then that i found myself completely hooked for life i found myself actually believing that RUSH was a part of who i am RUSH was embedded in my heart i lived my life with RUSH being my Numero Uno best band since 79, 36 yrs later after i drove 10 hrs just (driving time) from S.C TO D.C to be with my RUSH family and enjoy R40 I find myself dreaming about R40+
First concert I ever went to. I've been hooked ever since a friend loaned me a copy of 2112. I really didn't know who they were before then, but after listening to it, I had to have everything they did.
I remember walking around town at night for hours just listening to Hemispheres on my walkman cassette player and never getting tired of what I heard. What an amazing trio. When you get that certain emotion that sparks and you cannot find words to describe it, that's what Rush's music does to you.
I'm 60 and for me, my rock love is anchored by the two best power threesomes in history: Rush and ZZ Top. So different, but each such iconic, truly once in a lifetime bands. Saw ZZ Top about 10 times and Rush a few times. Never ever a 4th musician in any show I saw. In mid 70's I often listed to 2112 and Fandango or Tres Hombres- cranked up through my dad's 14" JBL speakers or with headphones- back to back. So many times...my tinnitus is a small price to pay...God bless Neil and Dusty...
Thanks for posting this. It's great hearing some very nice and talented players (and player/comedian) from a wide variety of musical backgrounds heaping praise on Rush. 8)
Those three musicians, when they played, sounded like a 6 piece band. It was totally amazing. I watched a Rock n Roll hall of fame performance and Geddy and Alex were playing. I think there were like three drummers and they looked around, as if to say "yeah, but we need more drums. "
I was extremely fortunate in seeing RUSH on the Snakes and Arrows tour...having been a fan for over 40 years... Haven't listened to any of my RUSH collection since the passing of Neil Peart..
The thing about Rush (as I see it) that has kept them from "mainstream acceptance" (so to speak) is that they're a "thinking fan's band". A musician as a fan can sit back for hours analyzing a Rush song, learning new concepts & techniques, & improving their own talent by learning to play Rush. Likewise, a non-musician can hear a Rush song & be challenged to understand the message of the lyrics, whether they be political, a story, or a general observation of society. On the contrary, "mainstream" music is awash with the same old same old I IV V and I vi IV V chord progressions & the same old same old "Baby, baby, baby", "Party, party, party", & "Dance, dance, dance" lyrics that take zero effort to enjoy. As a side note, Heavy Metal music is often much the same, & this is probably why so many metal musicians cite Rush as major influences.
They're right about Rush having so much rocket sauce. the 70s, 80s, 90s, 2000s, and 2012! My god, how many decades can you go on and STILL write kickass music??
In Rush, you hear so many other bands. You hear Zeppelin, Yes, Deep Purple, Sabbath, Floyd, Crimson, Queen... But it never sounds unoriginal. Well, maybe the battle sounds of Bytor were lifted off Gates of Delirium, but that's the only case I can come up with. These were just guys that decided they were going to learn from the best, and so their influences shine through. It's sort of like how Mozart learned from Bach, Beethoven learned from Mozart, and Tchaikovsky learned from Beethoven. And nobody better try to call any of THEM unoriginal.
Saw these guys at the KSHE radio station kite fly event in st.louis , back in the late 70s . I had herd them on the radio befor this , but live they really blew my mind . Oddly enough earth wind and fire opened for them ,and the contrast was just wild .
For those not privileged enough to experience Rush on the “7th Day” program, you have certainly missed out!! Those of us in St. Louis know exactly what I am talking about!!! K-SHE and Rush forever!!!!
Thanks my RUSH brother🤙 On a day off and can’t stand to think the loss of the professor will end the greatest band of all time. I completely understand though, as tough as it is to get my mind and heart around. My life’s soundtrack for 45 years.

First time I heard Rush. I found a cassette tape at my sisters house. Hemispheres. I couldn't believe this much music was produced by only three people. Each a master of their own domain.
Michael 732 damn dude! For me it was my sister's copy of permanent waves that I'm sure some d-bag loaned her! But for me, it was all over. Rush forever
Best comment on YT, that. Each a master...
My first was my mom playing 2112 all the time. Even that young I learned to appreciate greatness in music. I even have 2112 tattooed on my arm. Thanks mom for teaching me about great music
Michael 732: It's STILL hard to believe that much music comes out of just three guys!!
But the question is... are you still master of your domain? ....
Rush was a musician's band.
Sometimes all you need to say is "Thanks Rush"
It really says something about Rush that the only reason, THE ONLY reason, why they broke up recently, was not because of creative differences or huge egos. It was just because of old age. Peart just couldn't play the drums like the powerhouse he was back then. The fact that they've disbanded just recently, after over 40 years of performing together, goes to show that Rush should be a band to be sought as a gold standard for future generations of bands/artists to come. Drugs don't make a band, it's a genuine passion for music and performance.
I wouldn't say they broke up. Neil was diagnosed with a glioblastoma and battled it for the last 3 1/2 years of his life. I think they were kinda had their hand forced.
@@TrainWreck444 He wasn't diagnosed until after the R40 tour. No, they were very open about it. The shows simply destroyed him physically; he couldn't go on.

When I hear "break up" it implys resentment to one another... not we've been doing this so long we physically cant anymore, to me thats retirement and very few bands stay together long enough to do it.
@@TrainWreck444 Agreed; I was simply pointing out that it was Neil's physical exhaustion, not his cancer, which pushed them into retirement. His knees, ankles, feet, shoulders, etc. simply couldn't take the strain any longer.
They really did give all they had.
The most intelligent thing I have ever heard gene say.
I agree. He probably billed Geddy to say it.
Not really a high bar there.
@@stevecampbell9670 he was an assistant magazine editor and a sixth grade teacher. He's a pretty intelligent individual.
@@pauljohnson3340 Actually, that's fair. I watched some episodes of Family Jewels and I did find him to be very thoughtful even when he was trying to be a troublemaker. And he seemed like a genuinely kind person. I withdraw my previous comment.
@@stevecampbell9670 takes a hell of a man to admit that. Good on you, for real.
I was 15 years old back in 1975 and very much into rock & roll at the time. One of the bands that I was into at the time was Uriah Heap. So when they had a concert in Duluth Minnesota in 1975, myself and a handful of buddies decided to travel the 60 miles to go see them. I did not know how much that night would change my life musically. The opening band that night was a trio who called themselves "Rush". I had never heard of them before. They had about an hour of stage time that night. The next day, I went to my local music store and purchased all the albums they had produced at that time - Rush, Fly By Night, & Caress of Steel. Then a month or two later out came 2112. Then bought a bass guitar and amp. Cannot fathom that there will ever be another Rush album now that Neil is gone. As Geddy said "No Neil, No Rush".
Cool story! To see them as an opening act. I got introduced to them when Permanent Waves came out. I was hooked. I didn't miss a single Florida show for the next 3.5 decades. I got to take my daughter's to their first concert on the Snakes and Arrows tour. That topped the list of my favorite shows with my 2 girls there with me. They loved it too!
I watched an interview years ago with Geddy... He said "This is my job..... it's how I make a living.".
He was so laid back..... like he was going to work at a factory.
I've never heard a rock star talk like that which was awesome.
Truly a working man
The only one I ever heard was Billy Joel. He was asked about being "extraordinary:" www.brainyquote.com/quotes/billy_joel_386588
Pound for pound best band ever
Yep, in short.
I was born in 1968. In 1981 I heard Tom Sawyer and my world changed forever. Permanent Waves, Moving Pictures and the Exit, Stage Left were all there for us to listen to and it was even more shocking to learn that all this sound was coming from 3 dudes! What a freaking band.
I was able to talk my local parks dept into letting us name all mountain bike trails that we're building after various Rush songs...just doing a small part getting this music in front potential new fans for generations to come.
That’s awesome.
In Toronto there is a laneway that runs west from Spadina ave between queen st and richmond st that has graffiti along it unofficially known as Rush alley.
Where is this park and alley that I may make a pilgrimage?
I would wanna jump on the hemisphere’s trail
Dark Star Is Trees one? I like that song. Too obvious? I think not!
Saw Rush with Max Webster at Maple Leaf Gardens ... in winter. You can’t get more Canadian then that.
Alex Huxley not unless you had on a toque and were drinking a Molson.
You'd have to add April Wine for the trifecta. They're still playing arenas for New Years Eve somewhere, usually in Ontario, like Oshawa, every year.
There was a time you'd always see show bills in Ontario for April Wine, Max Webster and David Wilcox at the one go. Wilcox is still working, bless him. He was a nut bar in the 70's and 80's, and talented like shit.
Charliebrm1: Wilcox used to play the Knob Hill on Eglinton Ave East all the time. I never saw April Wine live though. Such a great band. Teenage Head and Goddo played my high School.
In winter? You mean only in Canada do thy have concerts in the winter?
Steve J: Nope. Both Canadian Bands, at a very famous Canadian venue, named after a very famous Canadian Hockey team. And in Winter.
For some unexplainable reason, I find joy whenever I get to read about people, all over the world, when they describe their experience when they heard Rush for the first time. It´s an experience impossible to be repeated, really. I'm 59 years old, and when I heard Rush the first time I was 20 years old, back in Houston, at a friends house, playing pool, drinking beer, and getting tuned up to hit the bars that night. Man....I was in shock when my friend played Moving Pictures....it turned out that I stayed at my friends apartment listening to that record a thousand times, while my friends went out....I was so sure that out there, it could not possibly get any better than this.....ever since I listen to rush everyday of my life and still find new things and sounds in their complex music, not to mention their senseful lyrics. What a gift of life to have them...
Saw Hemispheres tour at MapleLeaf Gardens in Toronto. fantastic show then after moving to houston in the 80s have seen all of the Texas tours since then Its funny seeing people bringing their kids to shows introducing them to awesome talent
I am 100% convinced Rush will be like Beethoven is now in 300 years. One of the select few.
Time Stand Still................
R.I.P. Mr. Peart 🥁
proof that theres no better way to talk about rush than to sing their melodies or imitate the drums.. you can feel the genuine happiness in all of these legends
Me, a high school student here in Brazil. In 1988 I was 12 years old. I had been listening to rock for two years, I remember getting my first LP, Brothers in Arms from Dire Straits. Amazing! When I changed schools, a colleague asked me: What do you like to hear? Dire Straits! Then he said, good face! but I'll introduce you to something then, and gave me a cassette tape from a Rush guy, I'd never heard of it. (Album Permanent Waves). I was crazy, I was buying the albums as much as possible. In the '90s, as rush had never come in South America, I managed to realize the dream of going to their show in Ontario / 1997. fortunately in the 200's Rush decided to come for the first time in South America. 60,000 people at the Pacaembu stadium) and I was also at the closing of this Vapor trail tour and DVD recording at the Maracanã / Rio de Janeiro stadium, 40,000 people)
You were in that sea of hooligans jumping to YYZ?!?! That right there was RUSH history! I know the band was blown away by the enthusiasm you guys showed them that night!
What a great intro to Rush, brilliant album
Just a little fix. The first show in Brazil was at Morumbi Stadium. I was there too. It was amazing!
Rush has been, is, and will forever be my favorite band.
Rush ,I became a fan in 1976 and will be until the dump me into the ground
UFO opened for them? I saw the same tour.
Rush has been and will continue to be my favorite band of all time. Their friendship is great, their history, their musicianship. Rush is more than just their music and that speaks volumes.
THE GREATEST BAND EVER!!! 💪🏼😎👆🏼
I'm 55 years old, the one thing I've always had in my life sense I was 14 was my guitar and RUSH.
Technically that's two things. Just saying but no hate here.
Professor Corgan hits the nail on the head.
Only one Professor and his name is Peart.
Corgan is a student.
Corgan is a twat worst vocals ever if you call that singing
@@dougdavidson3260 Your mom is my student. See that comment? It had more imagination than yours. Shut the fuck up and let people have their opinion.
@@metall1983 He can sing, and construct a better sentence and critical thought, than you can. Ignorant fuck.
@@nicknelson4719 LOL
I'll tell you this... EVERY metalhead back in the day had Rush in their collection. They are a top 10 rock band of all time and NO metalhead would disagree...period.
Corgan says it best. There are only a handful of bands from the rock era people will be studying in 100 years, but RUSH will be one of them.
I'll tell you why they're there. They're there, because even though the commercial world just couldn't take Geddy's voice, every last aspiring musician that ever heard them didn't give a shit less. Did you hear those drums? Bass? Guitar? Pedals? Keyboards? That's three guys! Next thing you know, Geddy's voice has grown on you and even that is awesome! What I love, is decades later, seeing young people hear it for the first time and fall just as much in love with it as we did. Timeless, incredible music that influenced music as much as any of them.
ROLLING STONE Magazine never had anything good to say about RUSH but musicians love them, take a wild guess on who knows what they're talking about
Rolling Stone magazine doesn't matter anyway. They're just there to sell magazines. Yes, I haven't read a RSM in over 40 years.
They were the worst critics and offenders of musicians. STYX is a perfect example. They always hated and chastised STYX and people would go along with it. Then the South Park Episode baooened. Trey Parker is a huge STYX fan and with Cartman singing Lady and the trend of it, STYX is now considered cool. Even before all of that, I enjoyed STYX. I still love them.
If they ignore Rush they weren't worth reading. I always liked Kerrang mag
@@clamshell6863 Styx are still amazing. Their last album The Mission is great, there should be a new album later on this year
yup!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In the end, Rush got the love and respect they deserved. They did it their way for 40+ years, how many people get to say that? I saw them about a half a dozen times, and they never once short changed the audience.
Jack Black’s “Rocket sauce” explanation is the perfect description of their rock depth and craft.
Walked into chapters in Ajax to buy a gift for my daughter. There’s a music section that sells records. Looked for rush in the “r” section. Nothing!!
Turned around. They had a recommended section by employees.
Rush exit stage left and a beautiful book. Smiles big time. 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
MY best Rush Memory:
Omaha Civic Auditorium... Rush is playing "Spirit of the Radio"... and when he gets to "...Concert Halls.." they place just explodes!
I still get goosebumps remembering it.
Most underrated band of all time!
they arent underrated
I remember my Brother showing me Rush Hemispheres listening to them on headphones and just being blown away, my Brother said "Listen how powerful His voice is coming out of this tiny guy" Rush has this effect on me that if I'm down I immediately cheer up listening to them. By far the best band in history, I loved that many people didn't get it.
One of the best documentaries ever made, one of the greatest bands ever made, 3 of the coolest dudes ever. Neil was a legendary drummer and an incredible writer, so knowledgeable and well read, his lyrics could and should be recognized separately in a poetic sphere.
As a Canadian and RUSH fan, this video makes me feel proud as hell.
It makes me very very sad that I'll never be able to see a full Rush concert in person. Rest In Peace Neil Peart
Rush is/are their own entity......llove um ....Neil Peart lost his daughter and wife within 10 months a part , round 1997 ....sad stuff but great book Neil wrote....been a fan since the album 2112
Never missed a show in San Antonio incredible journey throughout the years never ever get tired of incredible music
True, back in the day Rush had a following but wasn't really mainstream even for rock n roll stations.
I first saw Rush open for KISS ! In 1974 ! Seattle Paramount
They played Tacoma Bicentennial Pavilion in '76, and met them at a record store.
They were SO gracious... and hilarious ! I made Alex laugh at something, and he invited me backstage that night. Have since met them every tour... so far !!! ;-)
Amazing
Rush were such good musicians, their songs so well written and with so many layers of depth, that they needed nothing but their music to become legendary. No gimmicks of any kind. In fact they were rather nerdy by rock star standards...according to Gene Simmons, kiss and Rush were on the same bill at one time and while Kiss were doing their groupie thing backstage, Rush were reading books...lmao...and reading stuff like Issac Asimov. That kind of image never bothered fans of Rush in the least.
Years back a friend was telling me about a friend f hers that was writing his phd thesis on the band, just imagine, a doctorate of Rush!
The bill was AC/DC and Rush opening for Kiss. Think about that.
@@hugolafhugolaf there's no denying that in Kiss' prime from the mid to late 70's, they were the shit. ACDC and Rush didn't pop nationally until back in black and spirit of the radio in the early 80's.
Rush are miles better than fucking KISS
Geddy Lee has a huge baseball collection displayed at the Negro League baseball museum. They have a wide interest base.
If you went to see them live, you could tell that they played every note in every song with no BS. They'd throw in some extra stuff just so you knew it was live, but they could play their entire catalog perfect, every last time they performed ...if they wanted to... and the stuff they were playing would kill a mere mortal. When Alex Lifeson is the third best musician in your band and still god, you are in a legendary place...
rush was one of the few bands whose albums i could listen to front to back and luv every song
The absolutely most amazing part is EVERYBODY who likes or loves Rush has a story about them. They have amassed such a following but everybody who has been struck by them, feels it personally like Rush was speaking to them. That's incredible. Oh, my story is 2112 was the first album I got and I saw them with Mr.Big outside at Great Woods on the Roll the Bones tour.
The rock critics hate em but I grew up on Rush here in Melbourne,Australia,I never got the chance to see them live sobs,have all their vinyl and then cds,Moving Pictures is a perfect rock album.
I am a prog fan so I loved the longer pieces of Hemispheres and the darkness of side two of Caress Of Steel but Moving Pictures is perfection in a record.
As a drummer,I used to study every beat of Neil Peart while holding the inner sleeve lyric sheet reading his lyrics,they were my incense stick,I didn’t need drugs to listen to Rush,they were my drug.
Geddy Lee’s voice polarises alot of people much like Corgan’s voice,you either love it or hate it,I’m in the love camp with both vocalists as I am a huge fan of the Pumpkins as well,Mellon Collie hit me the same way Moving Pictures did.
The mainstream radio stations down here still to this day refuse to play Rush,there is a real snob against prog rock down here which pisses me right off but especially Rush,you wouldn’t jnow they existed,I actually got into Rush through a school mate who immigrated from Manchester,England and told me about them,I was hooked ever since.
There is now a massive underground Aussie fanbase here.
I fully understand why they didn’t tour here,they didn’t want to jeapordise their show and bringing a sow that size to Australia would be pretty hard,we are a long way away.
I was in a heavy band back around 1983 and we did a few Rush covers,Xanadu,Limelight,Tom Sawyer,my band mates who never heard of Rush who were massive Zep fans got the Rush drug after a lent them some albums.
Crazy they aren’t held in the same regard as The Beatles and Led Zeppelin.
That's funny, in high school in 1981, the two most popular bands were AC(DC and Rush. One band thrived by being simple, and one band thrived by pushing music to the limit. Tom Sawyer's drum piece was about as complicated as it gets. Never get tired of listening to that song.
You didn't miss anything ... they really sucked live ... I hope this makes you feel better ... it's a total lie !!
@@mikekiss648: I love Rush, especially the earlier stuff, but I saw them in about '87 and was disappointed. The music was good, but there was pretty much no show... like you could have listened to it in your living room and gotten as much out of it.
@@b-radg916 well, that's a long time ago. The last few tours were incredible !!!
Mike Kiss: Yeah, video I've seen of R30 and R40 looked like a completely different stage. Of course, they're still not crazy in their showmanship, they're crazy in how well they do what they do.
They are the most musically talented trio......................................EVER!!
I remember when Rush played Marathon live and Alex played the solo exactly the way he composed it...I looked at the the face of my friend, guitar player in our band and 100% Serbian, just like Alex. His face just melted with awesomeness in a state of total guitar nirvana.
Evey time I listen to them I get a RUSH....Nuff Said.
I liked that when they stopped 4 minute radio songs and were told by the managers they needed to stick to the formula, Rush fired their managers. Geddy Lee was one of the bassists that made me want to play bass. Practicing Rush songs was a hard lesson in "learn fast or quit". I didn't quit.
This came from “Rush - Beyond the Lighted Stage” Great Documentary.
Yes, it is a great documentary, have watched it a lot. It really made me become a big fan because I started listening to their music after I saw what cool, funny guys they were. The music blew me away and still does.
Rush grew up on and idolized YES.. When you have that band to challenge you musically and you succeed you ARE one of the great bands.
So ahead of their time..Everyone in rock knows how really good the music was written and played.
I will miss Neal Rest In Peace the best drummer
I found a cassette called Exit Stage Left when I was about 13 yrs old . It was in my brothers Gremlin . I took it up to my room and listened to it and I was instantly interested . I thought it was the best live band I'd ever heard. I loved Rush from that point on and wanted to see them live . I finally got to see them on the Snakes and Arrows tour , nearly 30 years after finding that cassette. . And I wasn't disappointed.
Saw S&A tour with my best friend before he passed. It was our last concert together.
I was the youngest of the family growing up in Maine. Most of the family was into music in one form or another (playing or bad ass stereo systems). I'm 53 now and dont remember a time without Rush.
Once you listen to rush you will become obsessed
2112 did it for me and I fell in love with long songs 10 mins plus as far as length went. My old man loved Rush and all rock that had progressive elements to it.
The most precise, lyrically deep, professional band I've ever seen! Rock & Roll🎶🎶🎶✌️
Rush... Was with me from high school ( 77' ) on ... I saw them several times and took my son to see them twice ... He was in awe !
Rush is one of my all time favorite bands. It didn't hurt that I was also a percussionist. I just wish I would have seen them in person.
I saw the Moving Pictures Tour in Detroit, Michigan. This band blew me away with the ability to execute their musical precision and fantastic tone in a live setting. You never forget that. Not many other bands i had seen in my concert year attendance could do it so well imo.
I also saw the Moving Pictures tour in Albuquerque, New Mexico. What a show they put on, just blew me away
That was only the third concert I'd ever been to. I can't believe I was 15 years old and just starting to appreciate rock and roll more and more. The first four concerts I ever went to were. Freddy Fender at the Magic Mountain Amphitheater in California, 1977. Van Halen at the Pit, in Albuquerque, New Mexico, 1980. Rush at Tingley Coliseum, Albuquerque, New Mexico, 1981. Rolling Stones at Folsom Field, Colorado University, Boulder, Colorado, 1981.
"The Holy Trinity" of the music industry.
Never was there, is there, will there ever be such a talented band of geniuses formed...PERIOD.
Greatest band I ever saw. My favorite band. First saw them in 1975 warm up KISS in Pittsburgh, PA. FANTASTIC.
One of the things that made rush great is that they were progressive enough to be intetesting to music nerds but they never were fret wankers or showoffs. Even the longer pieces they wrote had great substance
In 1979 i went for the 1st time to see RUSH (Permanant Waves) San Antonio TX the next day i had to buy 2112 at that concert the connection between the fans and 2112 was unbelievable i listened and then understood what had happened to me, When Moving Pictures came about when i heard THE CAMERA EYE it was then that i found myself completely hooked for life i found myself actually believing that RUSH was a part of who i am RUSH was embedded in my heart i lived my life with RUSH being my Numero Uno best band since 79, 36 yrs later after i drove 10 hrs just (driving time) from S.C TO D.C to be with my RUSH family and enjoy R40
I find myself dreaming about R40+
First concert I ever went to. I've been hooked ever since a friend loaned me a copy of 2112. I really didn't know who they were before then, but after listening to it, I had to have everything they did.
I remember walking around town at night for hours just listening to Hemispheres on my walkman cassette player and never getting tired of what I heard. What an amazing trio. When you get that certain emotion that sparks and you cannot find words to describe it, that's what Rush's music does to you.
R.I.P. Neil Peart. What a sad day. Thank you, legend!
I'm 60 and for me, my rock love is anchored by the two best power threesomes in history: Rush and ZZ Top. So different, but each such iconic, truly once in a lifetime bands. Saw ZZ Top about 10 times and Rush a few times. Never ever a 4th musician in any show I saw. In mid 70's I often listed to 2112 and Fandango or Tres Hombres- cranked up through my dad's 14" JBL speakers or with headphones- back to back. So many times...my tinnitus is a small price to pay...God bless Neil and Dusty...
1:08 when you realize you just came up with the greatest analogy
Thanks for posting this. It's great hearing some very nice and talented players (and player/comedian) from a wide variety of musical backgrounds heaping praise on Rush. 8)
Those three musicians, when they played, sounded like a 6 piece band. It was totally amazing. I watched a Rock n Roll hall of fame performance and Geddy and Alex were playing. I think there were like three drummers and they looked around, as if to say "yeah, but we need more drums. "
I was extremely fortunate in seeing RUSH on the Snakes and Arrows tour...having been a fan for over 40 years...
Haven't listened to any of my RUSH collection since the passing of Neil Peart..
Was and will always be “the greatest band out there”...R.I.P Mr Peart 😓
I wish Sebastian Bach was as wholesome as he appeared in this video.
I am a huge Trent Reznor / NIN fan - his opening statement speaks volumes ! RIP Neil Peart
It says a lot when your peers have so much respect and praise for the efforts of your band. Rush is in the pantheon.
The thing about Rush (as I see it) that has kept them from "mainstream acceptance" (so to speak) is that they're a "thinking fan's band". A musician as a fan can sit back for hours analyzing a Rush song, learning new concepts & techniques, & improving their own talent by learning to play Rush. Likewise, a non-musician can hear a Rush song & be challenged to understand the message of the lyrics, whether they be political, a story, or a general observation of society. On the contrary, "mainstream" music is awash with the same old same old I IV V and I vi IV V chord progressions & the same old same old "Baby, baby, baby", "Party, party, party", & "Dance, dance, dance" lyrics that take zero effort to enjoy.
As a side note, Heavy Metal music is often much the same, & this is probably why so many metal musicians cite Rush as major influences.
Their first live album really is a must-have; second as well. Went to see them many times, never a disappointment.
Once you’ve heard Moving Pictures on a good sound system it suddenly becomes the benchmark for all future hardware purchases
Moving Pictures and Steely Dan's Aja. Not just masterpieces of music, but also of recording and engineering, for sure.
He said it quite right "Somebody has to explain why they are always there". Rush, you ROCK!
Rip to Neal, he was a legend
They're right about Rush having so much rocket sauce. the 70s, 80s, 90s, 2000s, and 2012! My god, how many decades can you go on and STILL write kickass music??
No comments? well I am a Rush fanboy, have been since 77.
Totally blown away.....R.I.P Neil.....you were the best!!
In Rush, you hear so many other bands. You hear Zeppelin, Yes, Deep Purple, Sabbath, Floyd, Crimson, Queen... But it never sounds unoriginal. Well, maybe the battle sounds of Bytor were lifted off Gates of Delirium, but that's the only case I can come up with. These were just guys that decided they were going to learn from the best, and so their influences shine through.
It's sort of like how Mozart learned from Bach, Beethoven learned from Mozart, and Tchaikovsky learned from Beethoven. And nobody better try to call any of THEM unoriginal.
Rush is your favorite artist’s favorite artist.
rip vinnie
Saw these guys at the KSHE radio station kite fly event in st.louis , back in the late 70s . I had herd them on the radio befor this , but live they really blew my mind . Oddly enough earth wind and fire opened for them ,and the contrast was just wild .
Cheef Cherokee that is an awesome lineup.
For those not privileged enough to experience Rush on the “7th Day” program, you have certainly missed out!! Those of us in St. Louis know exactly what I am talking about!!! K-SHE and Rush forever!!!!
KSHE 95, that takes me back
I've been a rush fan since the age of 9.
I really need to start listening to more Rush. A highly underrated band.
Rest in Peace, Neil Peart.
they’re incredibly gifted musicians, they’re tops in each of their instruments!! Pearl writes the lyrics...... all intelligent people.🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🔥🔥🤟🤟🤟🤟
Shaking it for decades and still sauce is coming out!
Yeah!
Thanks my RUSH brother🤙 On a day off and can’t stand to think the loss of the professor will end the greatest band of all time. I completely understand though, as tough as it is to get my mind and heart around. My life’s soundtrack for 45 years.
