@@Dracani Yup
any chance of the full concert with all music performances being released?
OMG that show was amazing, thank you for posting this!
Instant tears 😭
2 sentence horror story: "surprise! You're drumming for rush"
But the honor of the question.
Sure that’s a horror story for anyone BUT Matt stone.
And claypool
Actually the other drummer is the one really drumming
@@chriswise7978buddy that’s percussion 😂
Imagine being 69 years old, not playing in public for 7 years, then sounding as good as that
took a second for me to remember that honestly, these gods have been playing live longer than ive been alive XD
I mean they do say 69 is your prime !!!
Seeing Geddy, Alex, Les Claypool, Matt Stone & trey Parker on stage is freaking amazing! Although, it makes me a little sad that Neil is gone, and Geddy's voice is far weaker than it used to be.
@@lgd1974 I don’t understand why they didn’t draft a female in to do the distinctive voice because it sounds like he’s really having to work at it and can’t get near some of those very high notes . Yes would’ve given their post 2004 work a boost if they’d found some enchanting creature to fill Jon Anderson’s boots. Then again a lot of those old Prog acts seemed to avoid girls in their line ups . 🐢🏴❤️
@@newforestpixie5297 To understand this band better, I seriously recommend you watch the Rush Documentary "Beyond the Lighted Stage". It wasn't that Rush was actively seeking to avoid putting a female in their band. It's wrong to assume that. Geddy and Alex are childhood friends and were pretty nerdy. Even if they tried to get girls in their band, they'd have massively failed. Geddy originally was a guitar player, and the lead vocalist they had for a few months quit, as did their bassist. So Geddy took over those duties. Geddy DEVELOPED a high pitch voice because he wanted the lyrics to be heard.
I don't know about other progressive rock bands, but I do know Rush.
Jokes aside, seeing Les Claypool and Geedy Lee on the same stage doing basically a serious song for comedic purposes is the most badass thing you can imagine!
Now, all we need is Flea!
Dude for real. Half the people I look up to in life are on the stage at once.
Les clay pool turned this song into the antithesis of its meaning. So sad.
@@Crow-gg5se seethe and cope
@@TheListenerCanon No no Flea. I'll get you a flea collar!
Imagine going to the concert to hear some jokes and Uncle Fucker live and then Rush just fucking reunites on stage in front of your eyes. Legendary
😂
So is that Rush’s final performance ever?
@@MegaVolcanoMaybe the YYZ thing with Danny Carey idk
Yes! I was there and could not belive what just happend!
I wouldve lost my mind. Shit was incredible and was worth every penny to Paramount+
I love the fact that it takes two drummers to come close to Neil Peart's sound, Neil Peart really does stand alone
lol matts literally following along, jokes aside primus does full complete covers of rush and are the only band that can actually do it look it up.
@@LegerAndCo saw them on tour twice last year on their tribute to kings circuit. such a cool experience.
@@fishingnuke9331 DECENT, I saw Rush in Montreal 2014 at the olypic stadium and then in 2016 for the festival de Quebec but got rained out!
Can you imagine them both trying to do YYZedd? That's a song where Neil Peart truly stands alone!
@@Kaizer617 nah, Herb can handle it just fine. The magic comes from who did it first;)
Matt and Trey's enduring friendship is probably super rare in showbiz, you don't see a lot of creative partnerships last this long in Hollywood.
And Trey is 80 percent of the show but they split everything evenly. Before this last streaming deal, each was worth around $600,000,000. Now they're probably billionaires. All from a construction paper cutout show.
@@anthonyfuqua6988 yeah they talk about it a little on 6 Days To Air, that agents and execs have always tried to separate them by offering separate gigs, but they've never let it happen.
Also, Matt has been super crucial with regards to negotiating for the show, apparently it was his idea to retain full streaming rights before it was even a thing. Now they're reaping the benefits.
But Matt stabbed Trey in the back!
Oh no wait that happened in BASEketball
@@FSAPOJake Matt does most of the work. They’ve both said that. Trey does voices and SOME writing. Matt does it all and is always the one throwing ideas on the board in their brainstorming sessions for episodes.
@@arun279 That's Cool. If it was my best friend and it was that much money I wouldnt care if he got half. I've heard Matt in interviews say Trey is South Park and Trey writes 80 percent of the show and directs. Besides the Rolling Stones or Simpson's no-one has stayed together for so long. Theyre workaholics too. If not doing South Park theyre doing something else.
Imagine going to South Park concert to listen to funny songs and stories but then you also get to witness one of the most legendary musical moments
it's even worse if you can't or didn't go.
FACTS!!!
It was one of the greatest moments of les's life❤️
I honestly had actual thoughts about wanting to go. Couldnt cuz it was in Denver but also a big Rush fan. Became a fan when i was older so i cant see them live and obv after Neil Peart death.
The fact that 2 of the top 10 bas players of all time are on one stage for a south park concert I can't wrap my head around it but it's fuckin awesome
I love Matt’s shrug after his solo. It’s like he’s saying “Welp, that was no Neil Peart, but it was fun!”
But I’m sure he would’ve been proud
@@vexillumvixen6054 yup, the Rush South Park connection began a long time ago. This is a solid tribute and fun for them Im sure
Oh, it was perfect!!!! And you've got to love Les Claypool's "not like playing in front of this giant crowd didn't make you nervous enough, now pull a monster fuckin' fill out of your ass for Geddy and Alex...no pressure."
Yeah he’s such a good soul😂😂😂
“It wasnt perfect, but it was mine” is what i say every time after i show off my painted d&d figs lol. Matt stones drums was legendary. This concert was legendary
You know there had to be some hardcore rush fans In this crowd and I can only imagine how they reacted to this lmao
Also to with them being South Park fans and seeing the clip they knew Geddy and Alex were in the building!! And Matt seeing it he knew right away that he's got like a once in a lifetime chance to perform with his favorite band!
The first thing that goes through my head if I got an opportunity to perform with one of my favorite bands or musicians is I hope I don't mess up on guitar!
That dude holding his face @ 1:56
He was feeling it
@@davesnyder7488 hells yeah, that was the night of his life for sure! Glad they were able to entertain and bring a little joy to the fans and of course themselves getting to play with Les *_and_* Rush!
I knew how I reacted when I was watching the live stream lmfao
This brought me to tears for a couple reasons... first, I never thought I'd see Ged and Al doing Rush music again. Second, as an aspiring musician, if my heroes surprised me and came out to play with me at a gig, I'd not be able to hold back the tears. What a great moment for ol' Stone.
in the beginning it sounds like geddy is about to tear up singing his old friends words too. or it could be that hes getting a little older and that range is hard to hit, but either way he still powered through and sounded amazing. moments like this will forever be why live music is so important to myself and many others.
I was in tears too, glad I wasn't the only one!
@@prettyponymonster that long high note he hit at the end was amazing. I'm sure there was a little rust that needed to be shaken off in the beginning since they haven't played since Neil passed. Still though, by the end that was the best I've heard Geddy sound in like 15 years if not more.
I came here after their Taylor Hawkins Tribute performance. When I was watching that one, I told my son this was the first time they'd performed since 2015. He said no, they did some show for South Park with some other drummer. I was like, WTF??!!! I had no idea this happened. I've been a Rush fan since the 80's. Seen them countless times including their farewell tour. This one was special. God I miss the Professor. RIP Neil.
How can anyone cry when they are playing a south park show and they have a drawing of them with funny Canadian heads lol
Man, what a fucking wild trip this must have been for Matt. Plus the honor and probably terrifying fact of filling in for Peart...
Shoes that will never be filled sadly...
Took TWO men to even try 😂
@@theguythatpissedyouoff3247 Why is that funny
Neil Peart stands alone
@@chriskimmel7252 I think it helps to emphasize the absurdity/near-hopelessness that it takes two men to make one Neil Peart.
Geddy ending it with a simple “Thank you, eh?” is the most Canadian sign off ever. Chef’s kiss.
Who’s kiss? He left the show a long time ago!
should have left with a fart.. LOL 😆
No tongue, please.
Too bad Isaac Hayes didn't live long enough to sing Chocolate Salty Balls at this show. They should've asked that black drummer to do the honors.
You know Alex at least suggested it@@kraftwerklover69
It seems like they didn't realize what a big deal this was gonna be when they planned it, and now it's become borderline iconic.
Nope, not 'borderline', just iconic 🤙
Use a different word other than iconic. Fuckin sick of it.
Me and a friend where just talking about this. I'm shocked honestly that this wasn't an only on hbomax or paramount or whatever. Probably would have been bigger tbh. Like I didn't even know about this concert until I saw it 2 days ago.
@Robert Jameson But it's not exclusively on there. I'm not mad it's not. I'm just saying this could have been a big thing if advertised as a movie exclusive to some service.
Ween, Primus, and RUSH. This show was insane.
Literally two of the best bass players to ever live on stage playing together
I am one lucky cat. I've seen Les live 4 times, Geddy live 25 times, Stanley Clarke live 4 times. Of course I can throw Jaco in the mix. I would have soiled my pants at this show.
My first concert was Primus opening for Rush in 92
@@RobertABooey75I was there
FOR FUCKING SOUTH PARK OF ALL THINGS.
this.. this is ROCK HISTORY.
God bless Matt and Trey
Les and Les. I know dude. Saw Primus last weekend thought the same thing. (Rush sucks… not like Primus sucks)
I love that Les is so stoked to be on stage with his heroes.
Playing alongside your idols has to be an incredible feeling
I assume you mean Matt and Trey.
Les seems like a straight up good guy.
Respect
Was this their first time playing together post Neil's departure? Must have been surreal for Matt to be behind the kit with those two in front of him! Good for him! Matt and Trey deserve every bit of their success.
First time theyve played in public since august 2015
I think so! In the interview with George Stroumboulopoulos they talked about how they occasionally get together to jam but usually just end up drinking beer and not picking up their guitars. When George asked them if they ever play rush songs when they are jamming alone they both gave a very definite and almost mournful "No.". Preparing for this could have legitimately been the first time they had played a rush song at all since Neil passed.
This is pretty incredible.
I will add that the current Primus tour with them playing the entire farewell to kings album was an amazing experience on its own.
@@AnK5402 This is confirmed to be the first time Rush has played since the death of Neil which is fucking amazing South Park of all people got them to do it.
That's not technically accurate, Geddy and Alex played in the closing jam at the R&R Hall of Fame in 2017 when they inducted Yes. This is the first time they've played a Rush song live since 2015, though.
Oh, since the death of Neil, yes, but not since the end of the 2015 tour.
Honestly, my favourite thing about this was Trey sitting back and just watching with the biggest smile on his face for how happy he was for Matt.
Absolutely amazing.
AHHH THIS COMMENT :)))) i totally agree
They're so god damn adorable. The bromance is great to see
@@BuckerydogSchmuckeryDog yeah lol its awesome, they’re so cute
Timestamps?
they better be glad southpark
didn't come on NBC in 97 or I'll
be cancelled.
NBC will be like nope bye trey
an Matt closes doors on them.
Knowing how close Matt was to Neil this was absolutely something he never thought would happen in his life. Just great seeing them back on stage.
When you know how close all these guys are. it hits really different to see Matt Stone taking Neil's place for this.
For ONE BRIEF MOMENT…Matt Stone got to be the drummer of RUSH. Ohhhh the feels
@@TheConcertCruizer fr I wouldn't know what to do if I was the drummer for Geddy and Alex for a night I didn't say Rush cause it's not Rush without Neil
To be fair, there are TWO drummers trying to cover the part the Master played...
@@rickpapineau5939 I think that was more for insurance than necessity
I love that Geddy at every stage of his career looks like a wizard
Geddy is the Wizard to Les’ Crazy Mountain Man. I’ve also seen Les be compared to a praying mantis cursed with eternal knowledge but that didn’t flow as well
@@SlamDunkPyro I have seen 70's Ged described as resembling a "lesbian witch". Got a little angry until I saw the picture in question.
@@cvn6555 Don't leave me hanging like that, I want to see lesbian witch Lee :D
Funny, I don't remember seeing him at any of the union meetings... But being able to play bass or keyboards while also playing foot pedals and singing counts as wizardry, especially when you can do all of them as flawlessly as Geddy does.
@@cvn6555it was on the fly by night video wasn’t it
Alex Lifeson, ALWAYS underrated as a guitar player.
I wish he got the love and accolades he deserves.
Geddy finally did and now Alex is starting to. At this event and at the Taylor Hawkins tribute they were treated like Rock Gods, deservedly so. Here's hoping they do some sort of tour or residency. Would love to see them play live one more time.
Not by me. One of the very best! His solo at the end of the Necromancer is something very special.
@@AstralVoyager-q5f I had a friend growing up with this name. Just outside of Philly.
Ehhh I'd say he got his flowers. You don't have to be a Rush fan to know how legendary Alex is
He is recognized by guitarists. Who else what others think
To see Geddy and Alex performing again after the loss of Neil is more beautiful than anything.
I love that Les calls Matt "Stoney Man" and "Matt Stoningham" lol. His stage presence really brought a lot of the show together IMO.
@Robert Jameson Exactly. Les is like a crazy but wise mountain man.
@Robert Jameson Yes he was articulate and matched the vibe of the concert in the moment. Sometimes it can be awkward when some stage performers can't do it right but he nailed it.
Much like his role in the intro, Les provided the bass and backing soul to the whole of South Park's concert.
nah les had his moments. but he's also annoying asf and insufferable sometimes. dudes taking the mic when he shouldn't be if u ask me. who gave him lead? if I was geddy I'd be irritated with him
Kirk Hammett is kirk hamster too
This is why Matt and Trey's partnership is so strong, imagine reforming a band for your mate 😂
and not just any band. Friggin RUSH post Professor. It is a little unbelievable to be honest if I had not seen it with my own eyes.
The loss of someone in a 3 person group who grew up together over 40 years of playing live and recording albums is not easily put aside. And the love felt for Neil Peart is immediately shown in the audience for this appropriate South Park anniversary. This was the perfect moment for Geddy and Alec to play together on a live stage again. Love is shown in many ways. Their grief at the loss of Neil was terrible to watch. It altered their lives and took them off the stage. In time it became ok for them to feel a different kind of love instead of pain. I will be watching this many many times. God bless all of them and all Rush fans…
Well said
Right back at you. We're all brothers in the music.
I get goosebumps every time I watch this video. When the band gets quiet and you can just hear that perfect Geddy Lee bass tone, there’s just nothing better.
God, I would have KILLED to see Geddy and Alex perform in person again. I know they must miss Neil, and there's no other drummer like him, but it's good to see them on stage again. God, just incredible
This is had been very emotional for those guys I can look at getty and he's looking back not seeing his friend nice to see them playing together again though
I personally can't think of any musician in my generation that deserved his induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame more than Neil Peart. Truly a life worthy of admiration and respect in today's music community.
Did your God reply to you?
And with Les Claypool?! Dude I mean Du-ude!!!!
Tim Alexander is a fitting replacement. Matt must be creaming all over the inside of his jeans
I don't blame Matt for having an ear to ear smile on his face. I would to
Such a surprise!! Loved seeing Matt Stone so happy and in awe! Who would've everthought a stage of Matt, Trey, Les, Geddy, Ween and more would be sooooo epic! And at Red Rocks in their home state!
Thankyou for uploading live concert videos Dogstronauts 🤘
@@ruzario18 of course! I made a playlist too!
They got Gene Ween off drugs long enough for this?
In general both Trey and Matt you could feel how much of a blast they were having
@@anthonyfuqua6988 he's been clean for years
Matt got to be the drummer of Rush for one night, that must've been a dream for him. Having Primus there to back them up made it even better.
Would have crapped myself if I was there. Absolutely love seeing Alex and Geddy getting so much love. They deserve it. Neil's passing made us all realize what a gift their music is and that nobody appreciated them quite enough. Now they are being treated like Rock Royalty, finally. Hope to see them live once more. Thanks South Park. Once again, you've put a smile on my face. That Claypool guy is pretty good on bass, too.
First time they’ve played sense Neal’s departure. Had the ultimate privilege to see the last show back in 2015. Neal was definitely smiling down on them!
I got lucky enough to see them live once during the time machine tour. They where so fucking awesome and also just incredibly kind. Day Neil died I cried all day.
Me too!
Neil*
I saw the same show. It was my tenth birthday. Made me human
So glad to see Geddy and Alex back on stage looking happy playing a show together, was grinning ear to ear the whole time. RIP Neil
Yeah, I wonder how Matt felt as he sort of "filled in" for Neil. Even more humbled than he already would have had Neil been there.
Its great to see them having fun.
Seeing Matt happy seeing Rush for their anniversary is so cute and beautiful much love from them!!
Going back and watching this, it's insane how humble Matt & Trey have stayed over the years. Watching them do this is like 2 10-year-old kids who got to sit in on a jam session with their idols.
Note that the Glockenspiel, chimes, and other various drum sections are split between Les Claypool, Matt Stone, and Tim Alexander, all accomplished musicians.
That is how incredible Neil was.
Don't forget Geddy sang, played keyboard, and bass all at the same time, Rush was one of a kind
Fucking 2 of the best bassists of all time on the same stage is a mind fuck of its own.
Just missing Flea for the trifecta.
@@phatsakk43 I like Flea, but come on. He’s overrated as hell.
I would count Double D as one of the GOATs as well.
Yeah, whatever.
I think as iconic basslines go, Flea is at the top of those 3.
Didnt see Billy Shehan there......
To Matt Stone, Trey Parker, and every single person who contributed to South Park - Thank you for 25 years of laughter, entertainment, and farts. From when Frosty the Snowman came to life and went on a rampage to when you sang "America, Fuck Yeah!" in this concert; every moment has been a blast and look forward to more from you.
I'll never forget coming home from my first day of 7th grade and my brother (who had just started 4th grade) telling me "there's this show we gotta watch tonight, it's a cartoon with these 4 kids who swear a whole bunch and don't have noses and one of them always dies".
That night we watched Volcano and life was never the same again.
Being a massive fan of Primus and Rush this is mind-blowing for me to watch. Seeing Les and Geddy play Bass on the same stage is incredible.
This is just something I honest to God never expected. I think the best gifts come that way.
If only Flea was there, the world would explode!
@@TheListenerCanon fuck flea
Trey Parker: the legend who brought Rush back on stage
Geddy is so unbelievably amazing that after 7 years of not playing in public he can go out there like that, sound that good, and sustain those notes at the end and just look like he’s having a blast. And on top of that, if I had to play in front of my musical hero’s, which is also Rush, I would not have done anywhere near as well as Matt did. Incredible. Seeing Alex and Geddy on stage having fun like this has me in tears right now. So thankful I got to see them live on their final tour.
Seeing Trey and Deaner watch Matt fully geek the fuck out being surprised he’s playing with some of his heroes as a ultra gift from one friend to another in parallel with the love Alex and Geddy still clearly share for the music and what it means to those they’ve influenced and what influences can cause be they musical comedic or whatever. It’s incredible.
This comment here encapsulates the feeling perfectly 👌🏻
This is why Trey Parker and Matt stone are the greatest of all time
Trey and Matt is truly the best duo there is
💯 Agree!!!!! 👍 👏
the greatest of our generation
Matt tossing his drum sticks at the end, basically saying "I'm done, we can't POSSIBLY top this!!" was freaking great!
What a fucking moment man
They could have said "goodnight everybody! after that and would have left satisfied
Holy cow! Matt's a kick-ass drummer! To just play like that out of the blue with frickin' Rush with no rehearsal, impressive.
Yeah, I was wondering how they would've set that up without him knowing but making sure he was at least somewhat prepared. Maybe Trey already knew this was one of Matt's favorite songs that he practices regularly, or maybe leading up to the event he could've just nudged him along like like, "Hey man, I really dig this song would you mind practicing it with me?"
Matt is clearly following the other drummer... That said he's killing it.
They actually did it as a cover the night before. Les tricked Matt into learning it for the "cover".
@@MrSulfor I was wondering how they would have kept that a secret from Matt. Now it makes sense.
@@javaguyaz They explained what TC said in the show
This actually brought tears to my eyes ... very emotional. All I can think about is his young Daughter that lost her Dad. And then you know how powerful and personal music is to the rest of the guys in Rush. I am sure they were both filled with so much emotion there on stage. Then I saw all the shocked people in the audience. This is just so powerful.
Can you imagine? There at Red Rocks for an evening of simple fun and good music and then that happens? A Rush fan might just go into shock and not even hear the music. Just stand there, mouth agape, in total awe.
I almost teared up when Les says that this is the most amazing moment of his life.
Geddy Lee and Les Claypool on the same stage! Holy shit!
The two best bass players in the world
once in a fucking lifetime
@@babauranai quite literally
it happened in 94 too when they opened for Rush lol
@@Matt561 Don't forget Flea!
This dude literally just lived my fantasy. Playing drums with Rush. What a moment it mustve been for him. We miss ya Neil.
Matt and Trey was my childhood heros growing up. Everybody was looking up to football/soccer players, i was looking up to comedians and artists. A life long dream is just to say hi and shake their hands for making me laugh so god damn much
I loved how Trey set that up for Matt and then walked off stage to basically get a front row seat watching his best friend having the time of his life.
Well I just openly cried for 10 minutes...this is one of thr most beautiful things I've ever seen, true friendship and and love of creativity, beautiful
Trey and Matt have the best friendship.
This had to be the moment of a lifetime for Matt Stone. Welcome back Rush!!!
Man….. so many people’s dream right there - drumming for Geddy and Alex. RIP Neil Peart
That was genuinely heartwarming. You can see it on Matt's face, he knows he is over his head but is having a blast anyway and he had the bonus of playing with Rush. The closer to South Park moment Geddy just jumps in and has a wide grin.
Cheers to Les for being such a great MC on the stage with all those legends!
One of the coolest things I've ever seen. Just a bunch of legends having a hell of a good time. The look on Matt's face was just pure joy and anxiety the whole time but he killed it.
Boo-boo Iol
Primus holds this down so well, you can just see how in control the members are during this.
I like that they do the South Park "Canadian" accent.
As a canuck id have been bummed if they didnt
Sounds aboot right.
@@FUBARGunpla ya aboot damn right. Eh, my buddy?
@Karla Fifiková well I'm not your guy, fwend!
@Karla Fifiková I'm not your buddy, guy!
Way to make a grown man cry 😓 Seeing Geddy and Alex performing on stage together once again, not to mention with Primus, topped off with being the South Park 25th Anniversary Concert. Made me realize how much I missed them for the past 9 years, and still feel that void over Neil
One of the most wholesome videos I've ever seen, especially being a lifelong fan of everyone on stage.
This legitimately brought tears to my eyes. Rush have been my faves forever, and I dream of one day meeting Geddy and Alex.
Me too
Seeing Matt being as happy as a kid on a christmas morning, truly melted my heart.
Also must've also been such an amazing surprise for the audience as well.
I'm floored, life long Rush fan, I'm 54 and I have to say that bought a tear to my eye, RIP Neil your music lives on!!
Trey just sitting it out with the biggest Smile on his face shows what amazing close Friends these two really are. It was Matts moment and he did not lift a single finger to even risk stealing the show somehow.
Ok as a bass nerd I have to say, not only is it cool as hell to see Les with a Rickenbacker, but the same Ric that Geddy Lee played??? While he’s literally on stage with Geddy?!?!? I’m geekin
(also, Ler playing every note/riff perfectly with Alex is badass)
Jesus. How did that stage not collapse with all that talent on top of it??
Everyone talking about Trey and Mat, but Les is also happy to be playing with them since he was a big geddy fan. must be insane that you get to play with your idol AT south park concert of all places. pretty dope
The fact the les still nerds out to geddy like that after even after touring with them is just fucking awesome to me
Seeing Matt hug the Rush guys was honestly pure love and it felt incredible. Well done and grats Primus guy for Your best moment.
Can't help but tear up when Geddy starts singing after the intro. I can't even put into words how glad I am to see Rush still kicking it, even without Neil. Will forever be grateful to be fortunate enough to see them live in 2013 and 2015. RIP Professor 1952 - 2020
01:55 That guy in the middle's reaction is exactly how I would react if I were there. So many legends on stage
Totally thought the same thing! I would of lost it if I was there! Saw Rush twice live, hands down the best concerts I've ever been to!
Glad to see Ned Flanders having a ball.
I remember seeing Rush in concert back in 2008 for the Snakes and Arrows tour and right before they played Tom Sawyer they had a clip on the screens of the kids from Southpark singing the song but getting the lyrics wrong. It was hilarious AF! Glad to see it going full circle here with Rush showing up at the Southpark Anniversary concert!!!!
Lil rush lol.
"A modern day warrior named Tom sawyer he floated down the river with a black man" 😂
“I AM GEDDY LEE, AND I WILL SING WHATEVER LYRICS I WANT!”
I saw them in Georgia on that tour! There was a big storm before the show and I was afraid it would get rained out, but everything went off without a hitch. My first Rush show and one of my favorite concert memories!
I went to the same tour..they had vending and washing machines on stage
@@Wemyss333 I think Geddy started putting goofy stuff on stage because Alex’s amps take up a bunch of space, and Geddy doesn’t have equivalent bass equipment lol
@@Norms_Ghost that's funny! Explains the rotisserie chicken 😂
I can't stress enough on how many times I've watched this. We all need a friend like Trey.
@Robert Jameson Same dude, this clip of the concert was the best.
I can't believe I just found out about this. My heart is so big right now. I can't even imagine being behind a set of drums and having Lerxst and Dirk come walking out. Yeah, I went from just watching the Taylor Hawkins Tribute concert to this. I'm wiped out.
"Blame Canada. Blame Canada! Blah blah blah! How come we get the blame for everything, eh?"
"Geddy, I just received a telegramme from Terrance and Phillip. Aboot the South Park twenty-fifth birthday farty."
At least no CANADIAN said ",SORRY "😂🎉❤
Homer Simpson once called you guys "America Junior."
You can feel the unbelievable joy for Matt. Sheesh what a thrill.
Neil Peart spoke to us ALL through his Rhythms and his Prose!!! RIP Neil, you are sorely missed!😢😢😢
Didn't Neal Peart write Rush's music? I'm 43 but was always into grunge and 60's and 70's rock. Just kinda discovering Rush. Did he write the guitar and bass parts too?
Damn. Matt is good on drums. Like really good.
@@anthonyfuqua6988 except for the first album with John Rutsey, Geddy and Alex wrote the music and lyrics along with John since he could sing as well but was more of a backup to Geddy, Neil wrote all of the lyrics there after except for "Tears" by Geddy on 2112.
@@anthonyfuqua6988 Matt did some decent work but I suggest that he doesn't quit his "day job"!!! 😃😃😃
@Spuds is right. Geddy and Alex wrote all the guitar and bass parts. After original drummer John Rutsey’s departure (the best thing that ever happened to the rock n roll world IMHO) Neil wrote all the lyrics (except “Dreams”) with assistance from Geddy during the songwriting process to help the words and phrasings fit the music. Also Neil contributed greatly to the writing of the music. It was a true collaboration, give and take in the best musical sense.
I cannot fathom being at that age and still completely kicking ass and shredding. The sign of true musicians and legends!
seeing Les Claypool and Geddy Lee both play and sing at the same time broke my brain
The amount of talent on this stage is frightening.
Matt could have died that night a very happy man. 1/2 way through the song you could see on his face he was thinking “There is no way I am drumming for Geddy and Alex right now!!”
For real man that has too be high most people will never experience
Thank you to everyone that made this concert possible. What a treat.
Can't believe how long it's been since R40. Rush will forever be one of my favourite bands.
This was magical. Having seen Rush live during the late 70's and early 80's, and Primus on their Farewell to Kings tour, this really brought back some memories.
This was such a surprise when watching it. Rush is one of my favorite bands of all time and seeing them preform again is incredible. Of course nobody can replace Neil Peart, not even Matt Stone. May he rest in peace.
This is simply 10 minutes of pure HAPPY!
Rush, Primus and Matt Stone jamming together. Damn. Now I can finally die at peace.
These aren't shows or jobs or gigs- these are GIFTS- from Geddy & Alex, given to everyone on stage and in the audience. Memories of a lifetime they will all cherish and tell stories about for the rest of their lives!
every time i watch this I appreciate it even more. the look on stones face when Geddy and Alex walk on stage, the loose excitement in Alex and Geddy of being on stage together again is just timeless. One of the best concerts to ever happen that most of the world will never even know about.
Hope they sing “Let’s fighting love”next.
They performed it
You can find it on youtube on various channels if you search
lol
OK but can we just appreciate that we got a Rush x Primus collab? Cause that's rad as fuck
Matt and Trey are so talented.... I am always in awe
Many in the crowd were just flat out stunned. My face is hurting from smiling throughout this entire video!!!! Rush ..the greatest of all time.
Neil is standing with his daughter and wife, and they are smiling. RIP, Professor. no more hurt.
Wow! Alex Lifeson, Geddy Lee and Les Claypool on the same stage. Two monsters of bass and a monster guitarrist jamming together.
Don’t forget about Ler
Right?! Greatest moment of Les Claypool’s life is absolutely right! Man that was awesome! As a bassist it was pure glory for me.
Herb aint no slouch either.
@@snap8626 this might be sacrilege, but with all incredibly due respect to Neil, I think Tim is the best of all time.
@@bolo2393 Danny Carey. go listen. guy is true blue quadra-polyrthymic. can play 4 separate time measures at once.
Matt: "Holy Sh*t! I get to play drums with RUSH!!!!"
Matt two seconds later: "Holy Sh*t! I have to play drums with RUSH!!!!!"
Big shoes to frickin' fill, buddy! Good luck, eh?
he had tim backing him up
never thought they would play again. and this is the perfect place to make a comeback, too
edit: also should be said, les claypool’s stage presence is incredible
This was flat out, absolutely amazing, for all of us. And I cannot begin to understand what this felt like for Matt. Im so happy for everyone
I honestly didn't know Matt Stone could play drums. He's no Niel Peart, but he did a good job.
Also how am I barely finding out about this just now. I have more respect for both Rush and Matt Stone and Trey Parker.
