Holy shit that was fast as hell!!! It was like they snorted 5 pounds of cocaine and went right into it!! Awesome version!!!! Thanks for posting.

[michaelggood2]

Back when they used to play it at the right tempo. I'm a huge Rush fan but why the hell do they play all their hits so slow live?

[stevedrums]

@michaelggood2 It's the difference between being in your twenty and being in your mid '50's.

[india54for10]

Awesome Footage great to see Vintage Rush from the 80's they were really cooking along on this Song & I also love the Stick that almost got away!!!! Thanx again

[IrnMaidn21]

Rush always plays their songs faster live, Makes seeing them that much better. Rush is one of the best bands you will ever see live

[Thompsongs]

These days the boys play most of their stuff a bit slower than the recorded versions. I still agree that they're one of the best bands anyone could ever see live though.

[PAGEN3]

crazy fast damn!!

[PurpleElephantFilms]

They played this much faster then they do nowadays, but still sounds awesome!

[doten67]

youth my friend

[stwla888]

I remember going to this tour. Geddy about to play the middle bass part and everybody around me and me going fucking ape shit.

[robertnobody]

Great Footage!

It is amazing that someone was able to get a video camera in the venue, considering the size of video cameras back then in 1983.

Rush was in top form here, nice to see classic 80's Rush footage.

[ruleta74835]

Gotta love that drumstick fling that almost got away...

[l2blazerman]

Epic pacing

[xanadu77]

This level of pure greatness is difficult to comprehend.....such brilliance for so many years, these guys just NEVER fail to amaze.....

[adventurjim]

i actually like the tempo.

[vinnykster]

yes i think up til like teh Power Windows tour .. they played the songs a little faster .. i just think it was youthful energy really i know they werent that young but ... i think by Hold Your Fire they decided to play everything at a good pace but not too fast .. more in the pocket or whatever ..

[ArrowDrummer215]

I Request limelight...i would sound pure so fast

[transcendedlogic]

Listen to the tempo on that thing!!

[drfunk444]

No kidding. They're Rushing it.
