Rush Time Machine Tour - 2010-08-13 Irvine CA Intro - Tapehead2 dvd boot

[74jailbreaker]

The last time someone grabbed my sausage...I had to get remarried.,

[janiklitalien]

Who's Kuggel ? Is she one of the guys daughter ?

[williamplove]

Geez....Neil does look like Tom Hanks now that you mention it. This is great...so is RUSH !

[visionmaster153]

Yes, I will never forget the Vancouver show.

First and only time I have seen them in our fine home country.

LOVE LIVE CANADA

LOVE LIVE RUSH !!

[aelon1]

"We're having a sale" LOL!

[clawmagic26]

I have the Rash tshirt that Getty Lee has and at my high school, only one or two people knew that it was related to Rush, people this generation, make me sick... smh -_-'

[maxomilian]

I thought that was Tom hanks

[mrdarklight]

Oh my God.... That was so awesome... that they don't take themselves so seriously after all these years... best YouTube video ever. You even got Neil to act!! AMAZING!

[superunt43]

@mrdarklight 1974, I got my driver's license, aware of my Canadian friends even then?

[DigitalBoyTV]

0:17 weird al

[stropsstrops]

One of the best performances of the last years. RUSH, it's not a surprise!

[aagrait]

Thumbs up if you think Alex is an awesome actor.

[zxzxJoKeRThEiFzxzx]

Saw this when they came to ottawa for bluesfest KILLER SHOW they came close to there hometown!

[SpeedyTase]

Alex looks like Timothy Spall; Neil Peart looks like Tom Hanks in The Green Mile; and Geddy looks unique!

[ihatebobsaget1989]

@SpeedyTase geddy looks like casey jones from the first ninja turtles movie

[AudiophileTubes]

COME TO GREECE PLEASE!!!

[superunt43]

@AudiophileTubes Graced Greensboro, NC with their presence last April they did, thought I had died and asked for last request? Boys bother with NC? Really? Did so back in the day they did, meaning 3 decades ago?

[Octovaitor]

So wait. The cop is Peart, Gershon is Geddy, and _ is Alex, and in the second film the director is geddy and the owner is Alex, but where is Peart in the second movie?

[masquesandmirrors]

@Octovaitor The bespectacled cameraman, of course! The one that tells 'Warhol' that he hates him! lol. ;)

[zehWEEZLE]

Alex's laugh at 2:28 is very Cowardly Lion esque i just noticed

[lifeson2006]

Geddy looks like Trotsky....

[killcraz]

the GA..FILTER..lol!!

[wildanS]

Alex speaks like Roman Bellic! lol

[lifeson2006]

Oh my... My favorite band suddenly became The Monkees....

How good actors they are... and funny too

[SuperFlashDriver]

RUSH is my favorite to this day. They made alot of 80's and 90's songs and they're still at their best at rockin'.

[SuperMegaUberGenius]

at night... quietly...

*blinks*

[MetalB33rSolid]

Is it bad that I REALLY want a full version of The Spirit of Country?

Geddy makes a surprisingly awesome country singer.

[jinxedmodder]

@MetalB33rSolid Not as bad as my want for The Spirit of Funk

[steviea427]

Neil getting down with the disco version is PRICELESS!!! It is so cool that Rush has such a GREAT sense of humor. How can you not love these guys? One more thing...are Neil and Tom Hanks long lost twin brothers?

[superunt43]

@steviea427 You may indeed be correct? Talent does have the tendency to gravitate? May I humbly ask why the guys not own the hall, let alone reside there? Well, they are Canadian, world views them as only hockey jocks? Go figure?

[steviea427]

@superunt43 That is definitely true. The world never truly appreciated the skill and talent of one of the GREATEST bands to ever hit a stage. I put them on a par with the Who, Pink Floyd, the Beatles, Stones, etc: The real heavy hitters of rock history. They have forced themselves into the mainstream through sheer talent. The fact that they are funny and make fun of themselves just makes them even cooler. The world thinks of them as hockey jocks, but you and I know better. Rock On superunt43

[superunt43]

@steviea427 Actually, no. They are actually on par with NOONE.Who, Beatles,Stones pale in comparison, Floyd, well maybe?

[steviea427]

@superunt43 The Stones definitely pale in comparison, but they are very influential, which is why I listed them. The Beatles and the Who are very influential also, and were creative in evolving over the years like Rush has done. That is why I listed them. Rush and Pink Floyd have much in common: they both put out complete theme albums which explore the human condition, they both have very heavy lyrics, and they both are awesome in musical creativity. I like other groups, but I LOVE Rush.

[superunt43]

@steviea427 Indeed, may I say Rush remain Canadian, Floyd remain British. Influence remains of no bother. Greatest who ever lived, well?

[steviea427]

@superunt43 The greatest who ever lived? That is a TOUGH one. I will have to take some time and think it over. Rush is definitely in the top 3 though. They will probably come out as number 1 but I want to keep my options open. Rock On Bro.

[superunt43]

@steviea427 K, think then

[steviea427]

@superunt43 I will but I have to take care of some things first. I will get back to this thread as soon as I can.

[flurng]

Question: Musical geniuses, or certifiable lunatics?

Answer: Whadda ya mean, "OR"?

[badback22]

Hahaha Most humorous :) great schtick :)

[21Rushisaband12]

the great part is: the polka version, disco version and bluegrass/country version are all good and catchy!!!!!

[blica1]

Holy crap 1..these guys are just sick..is there anything they can't do ?..comedy ?..wow..these guys are just the best !

[EMBOBZ2112]

Saw them front row in Sheffield, i felt sick with excitement when this was playing .. screaming my heart out when i saw Geddy walk on stage i almost had a heart attack! Greatest night of my life ever!!!

[MeredithAlice]

It's funny cause I live near a Gershen's deli in Schnectady NY and it's the best around!

[claire0rockz]

Oh man, it was so exciting when they came out, so incredible to be there.

[SuperMegaUberGenius]

percy o'malley, the cook nearest to the palace at auburn hills

[mrthundaboots]

What makes it funny is they all make fun of their individual heritage: Geddy,the Jewish sausage man,Alex,the fat Yugoslavian and Neil the Scottish cop! Too funny!

[superunt43]

@mrthundaboots what I do with these boys? 3 decades, or 4 is it?

[mrthundaboots]

@superunt43 Alex and Geddy started the band in '68.Neil joined in '74....

[SuperTekZone]

@mrthundaboots Actually, Neil's playing the part of an Irish cop. Listen carefully when he says, "Jesus, Mary and Joseph" - he's saying those words with an Irish accent, not a Scots accent.

[mrthundaboots]

@SuperTekZone Well,I happen to know that Neil is of Scottish heritage and the Scots made up a lot of the police forces back in the day. I've read his books and he talks about his Scottish side when he was travelling by motorcycle through Scotland. Just saying...(-;

[mrthundaboots]

@mrthundaboots And Neil is hilarious with his head bobbing and finger in the air!

[xOkaYxFreaKx]

I saw them in Cleveland...where they filmed live for their next live dvd....it was AMAZING.

[Defenseman619]

I saw this tour, and I just don't get the idiots taking shitty quality videos like this. My phone is off, and if they're on stage, the camera is off. I'm there to see and enjoy the band.

[DidYourMomOSaurus]

the dvd was filmed in cleveland OH. and that was my first concert ever. thanks dad!

[SuperMegaUberGenius]

[ta2meqrious]

Played in Vancouver, BC Canada on Thursday June 30th - wow!!

Vignettes are sooooo funny!!

Neil's solo killed!!

"Closer to the Heart" made water leak out my eyes, eh!

Almost 40 years and they still don't suck so bad!

Rash rulez!!

[BlackLink27]

Was he supposed to be overly Jewish, or overly Italian?

[mwheeler1994]

Sick stache on the drummer.

[AwesomeAustinPowrz]

what song was that?

[BlackLink27]

@AwesomeAustinPowrz The original version of Spirit of Radio.

[FosterZygote]

"It doesn't suck so bad this time, Papa."

[WJBardenV]

Saw them in san diego yesterday. Fucking win

[pellacan56]

Saw this Tuesday in El Paso. These guys are older than me and they give their all at every concert. Totally awesome.

[planetsyde]

Haha saw this yesterday at el paso TX for the machine tour, was pretty funny when I first saw this, and the tom sawyer one

[elizondo2249]

@planetsyde I was there too it was awesome

[mrsrodriguez34]

i just saw this in Greenville SC. AMAZING light show too! they did awesome! i think im gonna go out and get a Rash shirt lol

[flybywire09]

@mrsrodriguez34 I was at the same show!

[rocka985]

Saw them in Manchester and they where awsome, love the video things they always do taking the p**s out of themselves they have got to be the most un pretensious rock band in the world. Does anyone know if the waitress is Geddy's daughter???

[rosc2112]

@rocka985 I heard rumor it could be his daughter Kyla, but, nothing confirmed yet. I'm waiting for the dvd due out in Sept (hold yer breath, may be we'll get it before new year 2012!) which would likely have the cast credits.

[JayyKub]

@rosc2112 It was his daughter

[masquesandmirrors]

@rosc2112 It does look like Kyla...if so, she is really a cutiepie! I did see that Geddy was able to get Kyla behind the scenes of her fave show "Gilmore Girls" a few years back...that would make her about 16 now, so maybe it is Kyle trying out the sheew-biz. (Imitating Geddy's faux-Warhol accent, lol). I love seeing these guys having so much fun!

[ChaosSwissRoll]

great gig went to the recent one in manchester, was awesome :}

[MetaltetseL]

..And the magic music makes your morning mooooowd

hahaha and it's great to see Neil partying on the disco version hahaha

[brein93]

I Laughed my ass off when I saw this intro movie last friday, at their concert!

[RobbieMcDougall]

Just seen this in Glasgow about 5 hours ago, amazing concert

[TheRealDaveMatthews]

Saw this last night in Ireland, it was too Good. :)

[MacheteMick]

@TheRealDaveMatthews Me too. What a gig! First time I'd seen them in 16 years.

I was impressed with the O2. That was the first time I'd been in the venue since they converted the Point Depot. Much better sound.

[Lasse2112]

Saw them two days ago. Great show and a very funny intro. Thanks for posting this.

[RockVoltz]

[constantinosbassman]

[constantinosbassman]

@MrPman851 OK,... Hear what you want to ? Later

[luteplayer111]

This is indeed the best version of the intro video - but it's too bad you didn't leave in even a few seconds of the ACTUAL "Spirit of Radio" just to show the transition...

Thanks for posting, though.
