Rush - Spirit of Radio

[Tarfy]

Yes, he looks great, I went to high school with him and John Rutsy was the drummer at the time. Sat beside him. Bet he dosen't remember me!!!!

[acrevelationnation]

yea pert

[waxl1000]

muito bom os melhores

[bloodsoking]

why they have washing machines?

[211samsung112]

@bloodsoking Because Geddy Lee was jalous on Alex Lifeson (the guitaris) that he has alot of things behind him like stereos and stuff, thats why geddy lee got washing machines

[Ryanuofm86]

@211samsung112 No, people said watching Rush was as boring as watching laundry.

[maceryan64]

How on earth could anyone have such poor taste in music as to dislike this???? MORONS!!!!!!!!

[ferrocky]

saw them in the mid 80's ,fucking brilliant at the NEC will never forget it. wonderful x

[mint61]

listening to rush at 12am- good idea (when is it not?) school in the morning= not so good RUSHing to get ready in the morning= great idea!

[sp355000]

Nice



[JDonaldson94]

THERE IS NO BETTER FUCKING DRUMMER THAN NEIL PERT!

[stigb56]

@JDonaldson94  Yes I agree Neil is one of the best and greatest drummer in the history beside Carl Palmer and Buddy Rich

[94dfk1]

Is all of Canada there? If so,awesome.

[katmac75]

@94dfk1 LOL. It looks like it.

[daverunner]

Timeless,,,no other way to say it,,,,they are awesome!!

[TheDrummingBoss]

@Tetsu85 I don't know Maybe when they were younger the practiced in there laundry room :D

[tetsu85]

Shit... 0:50 what the hell is that washing machine doing up there.. LOL

[ChannelBelongs2Scott]

@tetsu85

I think it's for the 1%'ers to use.

[Bromoe99]

@tetsu85 Washing their cloths. The roadies would wash and dry their cloths during the show.

[FEAROWNAGE]

Best rush song EVER

[WestCoastRedneck93]

how can you not have a smile on your face when you hear this :D

[cinman17isme]

Holy fuck so many people. Where is this?

[ericc4433]

@cinman17isme toronto

[karenbclb]

Sea of riffs ..thump thump

[3845alex]

geddy play the bass like a guitar 

[Ingratil]

@3845alex No, he doesent. Thats what makes it so awesome.

[3845alex]

@Ingratil i know right

[thibo62]

@3845alex As if there was only one way of playing bass....

[Rainedshadow]

How much longer 'til the Power Trio from Toronto gets into the Hall!

It is longer over due!

[RUSHfreak56]

I love rush and i saw there 2010 and 2011 tour 3 times

[NicolBolas7]

Neil Peart totaly looks like Tom Hawks

[iwanttobelieve1991]

Neil Peirt, the best drummer ever.

[misereiko666]

one of my favorites rush songs & one of my favorite songs in general,rush is the best band ever(geddy,alex & neil are the best musicans ever,period)anyone that disagrees clearly knows nothing about real music(like the douchebag a few comments back that though that they are terrible,he/she is a dumbshit who knows nothing,thats a fact.)

[Tromboneplaya]

they're probably thinking " WOW THEY'RE CANADIAN! =D OH MY GOD IM CANADIAN TOO!!"

[manolo578]

I'd have to say that the Toronto crowds at Rush concerts suck ass. I too am from the Toronto area and would die to listen to Rush.

[sdog626]

Rush can come just go to hell they r terriable

[andreaneilcmc]

I saw Rush in Glasgow on the Hemispheres tour. That must have been 30 years ago. Geddy Lee looks younger now than he did then.

[GilbMLRS]

@andreaneilcmc that's what I thought when I compared the vids of now and then =)

[amithabajan2]

Emos are no match for the sheer power of washing detergent and rush.

[0bscura]

How many million people were in that crowd!  Hope I get a chance to see them some day.

[fro631130]

Genial.Estupendo!

[fro631130]

Grupo maravilloso!



[DickLodge68]

This is a great example why you have to see Rush live. Been to hundreds of shows and seen Rush more than anyone. If you can the chance, do yourself a favor! They put on a great show! I keep going back!

[afroman1ish]

i was here when i was 10 canada #1

[ericc4433]

i started clapping when geddy did, people looked at me and then they started clapping with me

[ivansilvars1]

Eu assisti este show em Out 2010 em SP....excelente!!!!

[Howfar9]

i can't see the dislikes! take that hall comittee!

[IproSyndicaterocks]

my favirite song from them

[carolyn11779]

Love this song!

[shadowdemons117]

all this machinery making modern music........after seeing the washers and the fact that someone said that the washers are geddys bass amps.....i have seen everything

[wszystk0zajete]

Terrible. Back in the day, you know young lads picked up instruments and tried to be as good as their idols. In fact many still do like me. Well i'm not trying to be as good as Neil, that`s impossible. Learning hard to get better tho. >>>But guitar hero, rock band wtf is that sh!t?<<< People are too lazy to learn how to play so they buy a toy that makes them believe they are able to do music... and that they can comment that one of the world`s finest bassist looks like a woman! sad really.

[yutubenutzer]

At Guitar Hero, i thought this song were sung by a woman LOL

Then i saw this and noticed, it is sung by a woman

[ManOffTTC]

@yutubenutzer It's not a woman. It's a man, the greatest bassist and singer in the world - Geddy Lee.

[yutubenutzer]

@ManOffTTC But when i see her and hear her, i only see and hear a woman, not a great bassist or else

[deadchefbill]

@ManOffTTC how did he think its a women!?!?! he has fucking facial hair!!!

[cryoscourge]

@ManOffTTC Fuck, I thought the same until Wikipedia told me different a few years ago >.>

I actually used to think "Tom Sawyer" was a Heart song. XD

[Jmarley912]

@ManOffTTC I beg to differ.

[chaosk1]

The dryers are a running joke... Alex has chalk these huge amps and Geddy had only one, or at least very few in comparison... So they've inserted various large items like the dryers at times to balance the equipment.

[DeftCrowMk3]

@chaosk1 That shows how far mischievous Alex is determined to crack up Neil :)

[leddyzep1]

what's up with the washing machines in the background

[leddyzep1]

love your vid man try to make some guns n roses ones

[leddyzep1]

i think i like it live better

[Zeppdude2]

What's with the washer and dryer on stage?...Were they doing their laundry while performing?...LOL

[TheChaChi65]

If I go to heaven and God doesn't look like Geddy or Neil, I'm going to be quite disappointed.

[gkaplan2000]

@TheChaChi65 FYI - God looks like Chuck Norris, because God IS Chuck Norris.

[1olrocker]

They belong in the RnR Hall of Fame YESTERDAY!!!!!! Everyone PLEASE contact the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame committee and DEMAND RUSH BE INDUCTED NEXT YEAR AT THE CLEVELAND INDUCTION CEREMONY!

[Karmarghh]

Please check out our band cover of this song! Would be much appreciated to know what other Rush fans like myself think :)

Long live Rush!!

[kevinmccarthy98]

I NEED TO FIND OUT HOW TO PLAY THIS ON MY BASS WHO AGREES VOTE UP

[Heinkey]

@kevinmccarthy98 you can find the tab or guitar pro file on ultimate guitar, i just search in site the spirit of radio bass tab

[Tanoos]

Los Dioses en acción

[GalacticWarMachine]

there is only one word that needs to be said here.... "Flawless"

[SoaringMuse]

Neil Peart looks like a fucking hitman. What. A. Boss.

[Balaka98]

Is the Neil Peart. Wooow, The best,,,,,, Guinnes World Records

[edgardhonoriofrade]

washers

the best consert

rush genius

rush forever

great band great hits 1000

[kamaboko1]

Cool that Geddy washes everyone's laundry while playing. Does he also do the ironing?

[stykzninja1]

@kamaboko1 the whole deal with the appliances is he uses alexs guitar amps instead of bass amps so they fill the space with washers, dryers, even rotisserie ovens. at the end of the concert, alex and geddy take tshirts from the dryers and throw them into the crowd

[hitopsful]

@stykzninja1 uhm no, the part about the laundry was right but ged has used PA systems since the test for echo tour i think, why would a bass wizard like geddy lee use the amps his guitarists uses? guitar amps? really?

[stykzninja1]

@hitopsful fine i read that he uses guitar amps but whatever

[MrDoggson]

Fucking love this song thanks gh5

[minighs]

dude he looks like bono

[fr3akk1ll3r]

Neil only felt like half jamming which is still above anybody's spectrum of jamming so he brought what most people consider a normal set.

[Vasauron]

Even Motorhead tried some interesting things. So those of you that have dismissed RUSH for their experimental (are they not always?) music have missed the point.

Now I can listen to those "deRush Mode" albums and hear the genius that is Rush. If they did not create those albums we would not appreciate their Rocking material ...

I would even get a Hughes and Kettner Alex Lifeson Signature amplifier if they were not so expensive, very versatile and not only a "metal machine".

[Vasauron]

Great Band! I have been inspired by them for thirty years. Led Zeppilin and the forsaken Beatles had lasted about en years. This group has had its trials and tribulations. Eclectic is what real musicians should be! Sadly bands like accelerating current / direct current are a formula band that havew one song that they play for ...forty years though they are energetic.

I love the washing machine clean sound of the bass guitar, though when he hits the dryer mode watch out!! ;-)

[astrophysics123]

Now THIS IS GOOD STUFF!!!

[nandinho1334]

Jack Bauer on guitar



[ucla4eva]

RUSH...the only '70's band where the lead guitarist was almost a third wheel.

[istarpoohead1631]

@ucla4eva Alex Lifeson certainly isnt a 3rd wheel! Theres no third wheel...Rush is a unicycle!!!!

[stevenkh1]

The greatest live band in the history of Rock.

[ucla4eva]

4 people are cunts...

[TheHyperactiveIdiot]

Geddy Lee is one hot chick!

[benchmat]

they probably don't know anything about what Rush is all about and maybe hate prog music lol! Dream Theater can't be wrong...... \m/ \m/

[BigBear9157]

Rush. One of the many things that make me proud to be Canadian

[Ja13eson]

@BigBear9157 What about the healthcare?

[DillanHughes]

the washing machines are his bass amps

[Tanoos]

@DillanHughes I want to wash my clothes there ☝㋡

[74hotrodmalibu]

@DillanHughes are you kidding me how much have we smoked today LOL ????

[Thompsongs]

@DillanHughes Finkle IS Einhorn!

[newgolddream81]

@DillanHughes Is Geddy going for a clean sound or simply multi-tasking?

[smOfficialMusic]

@DillanHughes seriously?

[sinbysin666]

@DillanHughes of course.

[Cambone13]

@DillanHughes actually they are not. the story goes that geddy runs his bass directly into the sound system for the venue, and as a result has no amps on stage. feeling left out standing in front of alex's wall of amps, he set up the washing machine for stage presence as a joke.

[shuttlecommander]

Whats up with the washing machine at 0:08? Do they change clothes between songs? It must be hot up there.

[TharrGuardian]

Just the washing machines makes this epic already.

[feverfan420420]

call me weird, but for being my dad's age, they're all kinda cute:P

[mindaugas496]

So many people.. I wish I could have been one of them..

[wrussell391]

Hey Canada, this is the single greatest export in your country's history! My friends and I were "dogging" this guy from Canada the other day with all the obligatory, run-of-the-mill cut-downs on Canada( like the flock of geese that caused Capt.Sulley's plane to crash in the Hudson--that was actually the Canadian Airforce). The guy looks up smiling his ass off and says"Geddy Lee, Alex Liefson, and Neil Peart, top that!!" We all SHUT UP QUICK---RESPECT!! BEST BAND EVER!!!!!!!

[Kazinsal]

@wrussell391 We needed to make up for some of our hijinks in the 1800s. Like sending you guys Louis Riel. We're still sorry for that.

[trentonbabb1996]

WTF. Their washing their clothes in the background.

[feverfan420420]

@trentonbabb1996 at least they wash their clothes, most bands don't even bathe

[unitiss1]

@feverfan420420

ya but they do it in public ;)

[dselleck100]

@trentonbabb1996 geddy puts thouse there to make fun of alex and all his huge amps and how geddy only has a few smaller ones so he fills the rest of his half of the stage with washing machines

[BlackLink27]

What the hell is on Alex's face? It looks like a beard.

[omegaspeed1979]

saw them in 1980 at hammersmith odeon. Still sounds just as good now. Think Alex need to ease up on the burgers though! 

[ajd40]

@MrCopperhead1861

Those could be the most profound words ever spoken mate...

[HelpMeIamHungry]

The Drummer seems not very happy :/

[mudrat62]

CFNY!!!!!!!!!

[iamjoshandyouaredaft]

4 people are still waiting for their clothes to be washed!

[ModulatedTesticle]

Finally Neil has a set that he can get in and out of easily... all his other ones circled him completely.

[KiNg65782]

el me par un pel culaton el cantante...no par dire..

[jaydavee]

Washers and dryers on stage. Reminds me of Nascar and the Tide car.

[08Dazza80]

this song just makes me smile, takes any down feeling or anything like that nd makes me just want to forget about everything and just rock away nd sing my heart out and have it on loop for the next 2hours xD

RUSH FOR EVER!!!

called rush for a reason.... its what u get when u hear them!! xD

[TheMpg6]

Kind of a small kit... well, for Neil anyway



[B17MIKE]

couldn't hear the pedals. Those guys still sound so awesome!!

[bruceflyer]

i really enjoy taking in a good rush show every now and then. they got these really awesome solos that go on forever. so i know i can hit the can and take a huge dump. when i come back to my seat i haven't missed a song. rock on alex!

[brightonwomble]

Meant to say, do you not see the irony?

[brightonwomble]

@jusforthelulzzz

[CoolHatMan100]

THIS IS PRETTY MUCH MY FAVORITE RUSH SONG!

[0ma11y]

never gets old

[bruceflyer]

snooze...

[justforthelulzzz]

@bruceflyer fucker

[MrCopperhead1861]

I don't trust anyone who doesn't like Rush!

[DeathBodyInTheLake]

@MrCopperhead1861 Me too

[afroman1ish]

@MrCopperhead1861 me nither i have a very hard time trusting my mom

[imobilehome]

Alex plays such an inspired solo at this show! Love it! Rush rules!

[sawKO857]

what a rush

[coolcanuck]

Maybe, we Canadians toot our own horn a little much (product of being a neighbour of the greatest country in the world?) We love Canada more, toot toot toot Ty for remaining Canadian all these years RUSH, and giving us a source of true Canadian PRIDE --unlike that dog Celine, yes, and bacon, those are our three exports.

[1Kingmaker]

lol@3:57 "CONCERT HALL" guy.

[nandinho1334]

@1Kingmaker that fat pig yeah

[MutantCyclops]

HOLYYYY...how many people??!!

[deidara111]

@MutantCyclops All Toronto city ...I mean.

[96gummyworms]

It feels freaking AMAZING to be born in the same province as Geddy and Neil, and LIVE in the same province Alex was born in!

I'm 14 - GOOD MUSIC STILL LIVES IN MY GENERATION!

Go Rush Go!

[Gidster19]

definitely in the Top 10 Best Tracks of all Time by anyone anywhere.

[coolengine2000]

@Gidster19 awesome band greetings from GERMANY loves you guys from RUSH

[bobmuse40]

I love the washing machines!!!!

[dienpa]

Actually guys, the washing machines started back in the early days of the band.. Alex bought this huge amplificators and plants which took space for like half the stage so Geddy, in a way of making fun of him started to put boxes or random big stuff, witch escalated to the washing machines and now in the Time Machine Tour, time machines.

[BaphometsWarrior]

@dienpa

He actually just goes direct into the board, so to fill up the space where there was a lack of amps, he put in the dryers, etc.

[dienpa]

I've actually never seen Rush playing in a big open air festival like this.. IT'S AWESOME!!

[MrJJModern]

Ive seen this band live 3 times, and i am only 21. They do not make this great kind of music anymore.

[jimmyplanet]

@MrJJModern i get to see them in 2 weeks!! and yes dude, i grew up with this, and it's every bit as awesome today as it was then, so YOU ARE LIVING IT, YOU ARE HERE AND GET TO HEAR LIVING LEGENDS>>>ENJOY IT because the DO STILL MAKE THIS KIND OF GREAT MUSIC> PEACE!!

[MgrBreakfast]

awesome zajebisty kawałek rush wymiata pozdro dla basisty z polskimi korzeniami ;00

[aramjakeer55]

3 people don't believe in the freedom of music. :P

[alexmortland]

Those dryers have some kickass tone.

[CrossfireTheBand1]

This Is awsome!!! but i wonder why there are washing machines in the background at 0:13

[fingerstylefan]

@CrossfireTheBand1 That was Geddy's deal....He had band shirts in there and at the end of the concert, he threw the shirts out to the audience.

[jamesskb]

Neal Peart...nothing else needs to be said!!!!

[Thompsongs]

Man, Kiefer Sutherland can play a MEAN wah-guitar solo! Just kidding. Rush is unbelievable.

[1996Dalli]

YOU SUCK,i'm kidding now i have to go wash my mouth with soup cause i just swore ;)

[MrJoejoe347]

is that a washing machine???

[LukeGuitarGod]

Rush is the best rock band of life. I love that their music isn't consistent like AC/DC and others. But I especially love the fact that they are CANADIAN LIKE ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D

[TurtleFL]

Now this is an efficient band... they kick ass on stage and get their laundry done all at the same time! :)

[MegaELECTRICEYE]

Great bands stay together, and Rush has done just that. After all these yrs, these guys still rock like many others of the pass. Its hard seeing them age. But the same goes for me as well. And I'm sure like many of us that grew up listening to this great band.

[ufnc]

I just hit the dislike button because I know I will never achieve the level of awesomeness that is Rush.

[Bigmac4578]

how come there's a dryer on the stage? Lol

[robometallist]

@Bigmac4578 its a thing of Geddy Lee's, he brings random things on stage for concerts

[Mnog10]

@Bigmac4578

On Time Machine Tour there was a time machine.

[caw2309]

@Bigmac4578 - Actually, at live gigs they actually wash/rinse their clothes worn during the show, change and then when clean/dry toss them to the crowd.

[johnjoyko1]

THREE and only 3. these guys are simply the best at what they do and that is play like they are 4/5/6 mothers. RRRRRRRUSH IS THE REAL DEAL!

[ZarkSniper]

3 people pressed the wrong button...

If you wanted to assemble a "supergroup" from music history...Rush would be the core of that group. That's how good they individually are. Period!

[tiendadelagricultor]

how many drums/ precussion instruments does Neil own? OVER 9000!!!!!!!!

but seriously, how many? ive counted at least 23...

[PANDEMIC6661]

even though neil is fckn old he doesnt loose his talent rock on neil!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!@@@#$#$

[SuperBassMastar]

Geddy Lee the worlds greatest multi-tasker, he washes all of his clothes while playing infront of millions of people :P WIN

[TheThekenny]

the three people that dont like this dont know amazing music. Rush is a gift from God.

[ieetemos4breakfast]

i wonder how many people went to that to see the rolling stones and walked out as rush fans...
