FREEWILL Allentown Fairgrounds RUSH TIme Machine Tour 2010 Alex Lifeson!

awesome man, I was there too, but much further away

[chrism7262]

They don't play this is dropped tuning. He's still in standard, but i thought he screwed up right at the beginning too. its not very noticeable and like always, they got right back on track. But when they play 2112 they tune down well over a half step. Thats why geddy changes his bass for the first time in the show and alex changes his guitar.

@chrism7262 2112 is in d standard live i believe?

[mojorisen74]

WOW Did alex make a mistake!!!!!!I don't think the lights in his face helped any!

[ACELLOFAWARENESS]

@mojorisen74 did you catch the mistake or read me posting about it? it was small as hell, can barely hear it even when trying to listen to it!!!

[mojorisen74]

@ACELLOFAWARENESS No I heard it, It's right in the beginning. No big deal, I was just very surprised as those guys usually NEVER make mistakes and the problem was the flash of light, he was blinded. We're all human

[ACELLOFAWARENESS]

@mojorisen74 good ear! they've been playing under lights for 35 years, wouldn't attribute it to that. If you go to a lot of shows, you catch a blip every two or three shows. Neil trainwrecked La Villa in Camden, and Alex somehow got off time with Neil on the Limelight solo in Columbus more than once, it was weird as hell, I can barely hear it on video, but was front row looking right at his fingers and could SEE it happening, very strange!! We all know these guys are the BEST in the BIZ!!

[raulsuazo]

miss the show this time. awesome band!

[ACELLOFAWARENESS]

I asked the dude next to me (while i was filming actually!) if he wanted to be in a youtube video (cuz he was hard core fan all night!) and he said 'sure.' so we did the 3:08 deal and it came out FANTASTIC!! text messaged with him day after show, he was really happy and it was so cool to do that for a BIG fan like him, nothing feels better than "RUSH Karma." I let 2 girls come to my front row spot in Columbus for the Encore too, you know, anything within reason to promote our legends!!

[ACELLOFAWARENESS]

4:23 ...THAT'S ME Geddy's mentioning...lol.

[ACELLOFAWARENESS]

if you want to hear an almost unheard of mistake by a member of RUSH, listen to the intro riff here about 2 seconds in, the second run-down of the intro riff, sounds like he either missed picking a note, or probably had a finger right up on the fret and muted the note. Yes folks, the rumor that RUSH is so good because they are really Cyborgs sent from the year 4114 is not true, they are human, EXTRAORDINARY humans of course!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

[ACELLOFAWARENESS]

@ACELLOFAWARENESS it really is BARELY noticable!

[vlridder]

@ACELLOFAWARENESS the cyborgs are programmed to make small mistakes to throw humans off their scent. thanks for posting this.

[ACELLOFAWARENESS]

@vlridder  oh man, that's funnnnnnny!!!!!

[HAKKY2112]

@ACELLOFAWARENESS

I wonder if the cyborg-Lerxst got blinded by the spotlight when fudging those couple of notes (near 9th fret is it?)

He sorta looked away.

And might I add ACOA you sure had a sweet seat!!!!

How many shows this tour? : )

[ACELLOFAWARENESS]

@HAKKY2112 Twelve shows this year, unless a hurricane has anything to do with it this weekend!!! I have no idea what fret it was, I couldn't play that solo in a wet dream!! I do 'play' guitar, but I just mentioned the blip because i'm a PROFESSIONAL LISTENER.....lol!

[bluesagg]

@ACELLOFAWARENESS Boy, this sounds like they're playing it dropped tuned. If that's the case they changed it mid-tour. No wonder Alex has been sounding kind of nutsy on this tune. Great vid as always ACELL -- Big_Al_Fan.

[ACELLOFAWARENESS]

@bluesagg Really? i'm waaaay to amateur of a player to even know if it is dropped tuning, but it would surprise me if so. I had someone say last tour they played 2112 dropped, but didn't believe it because it looked to me like Alex was playing the same chords as the album (the ones i know..lol!)
