Rush shoulda never got rid of John Rutsey, because he is better...just messin(for those who dont know rutsey was the drummer on their 1st album, dont believe me go look it up)...lol...awesome vid bro
I loved this! You gotta get Neil himself to see this! Maybe he has. I see he is playing the old TAMA set. Or is that the older Slingerland set? Whatever, you got his kit down and you have every note down too. I used to play this and other Rush songs as a drummer in the 80's and Rush was always my favorite music to play. I should get out the kit and make a video and see how many hits I get! I gave up on being a rock star in the mid 80's so now in my late 40's, I don't think it will ever happen!
@xxXWic I noticed a couple of mistakes but I didn't mention them. At 2:50 during Alex's solo, Neil is actually doing some double para diddle derived groove with ghost notes played on the snare. This is signature Neil, (same type of groove played on 2112 during the chorus "We are the priests of the Temple of Syrinx [gotta mention the single stroke 16th note and 8th note clusters fill after "and the meek shall inherit the earth, also signatur], and the bass & drum solo in the middle of Freewill)
I think THIS Neil Peart is better than the real one. He can play on the water of Lake Ontario while jets scream overhead and I'll bet he doesn't even break a sweat.
YYZ is the International Air Transport Association airport code for Toronto Pearson International Airport, Rush's airport in their native area of Toronto. The song's intro uses Morse code, similar to Beethoven's 5th (V) symphony. Morse code for V is short-short-short-long (dun dun dun duuuun). Morse code for YYZ is [--.- --.- --..]. Although out of rhythm in the intro because the breaks are misplaced, you can tell when it is spelling out YYZ.
@BBQchipss No, it is not out of rhythm; it is exactly right. Morse Code for Y is -.--, not --.- What you entered is QQZ, which is Paraguana Airport, Las Piedras, Venezuela. Sure glad you're not their pilot. ;-)
Sick track. This video is so wack though.
