Rush Tom Sawyer - Multi-Nation Virtual Band Cover / Collaboration

[PSXGAMER22]

i would love to do an online group cover like this! It's so cool to see a bunch of different people from all over collaborating together to make an epic cover!

[ZebuTirent]

dude, the singer is that youtube bass lesson guy! i just watched like 5 of his vids earlier today (: diddnt realize he could sing like lee too haha

great cover btw, you guys are sweet

[TheOriginalBleachX]

PaulieWanna is a jam up drummer!

[21Rushisaband12]

great cover by everyone, all i can say is to work on sound quality and mixing, i know its really difficult, especially for drums, but its really hard to hear the bass drum, and the bass guitar does not cut through the mix very well, once again great cover, just need a little work on recording and mixing the individual tracks

[Samaroneb]

Uauuu! Great Job!

[kamandi2525]

This is Excellent !!!

[GORFF987]

Cooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooooool!

[davkenrem]

WOW, that is awesome, You all are really good. You ought to do a behind the scenes video of how you all put this together.

[MINARD734]

Good cover!! The bass drum sounds weird though.

[ronanberry]

Awesome drums!!!!

[MrSgtProfDrRob]

How do people make these Virtual Bands? Ive been trying to form a band in my area with no luck. Any sites i should go to?

[snowdoguk]

@MrSgtProfDrRob use a track that everyone plays to, preferably not an mp3, everyone records themselves playing to it (ideally with a uniform coloured background) and uploads their track to somewhere someone else can retrieve it, a mug (me) retrieves and edits all the separate video and audio tracks together together to make a video.... pretty easy really.... can be people from all over the globe... all they need is a camera and an internet connection

[Nexusmagicshop]

The instruments are spot on difficult to master this track overall I think you all did very well...

[pingedace13]

amazing voice

[kiritobi]

nice bass cover

[NGMP1996]

this is a good cover

- Good WORK

[tomek1995v8]

Wow! Fantastic! :)

check out my cover of YYZ :) collab with bassist :)

[heritage80elite]

Fantastic! Keep 'em coming!! How 'bout Limelight or Spirit of Radio???

[connorfood]

LOVE IT! great job Val!

[anactivegrenade]

that drummer is awesome!

[Longboardersrule12]

haha the singer delt a great deal to helping me find success as a bass player

[ColtonSaylor713]

Someone PLEASE give me the chords...cause i know its E D then i cant findout the third one cause its wierd so PLEASE help for any guitarist who know this song!!!

[Jammin6796]

@ColtonSaylor713 bar E on 7th/9th. then a D on 5th/7th 2nd string 5th fret 3rd/4th string 7th fret others open mute the low E. then an A/D open 1st/2nd string 3rd fret 3rd/4th string 2nd fret rest open mute the low E.. last chord is a C 2nd string 3rd fret 3rd/4th/5th strings 5th fret mute low E thats the first 4 chords make sure to strum all the strings specifically on the A/D to get the propper sound dont bar all the chords as others do thats the wrong way if u bar

[Jammin6796]

@ColtonSaylor713 this may help most people bar all the chords but look how he plays them not full barchords and make sure to strum all the strings specifically on the A chord to get full sound

[TH3B3A57]

@ColtonSaylor713 perhaps its the tonic? The E and D might be the 5 and forth. im not sure. you could try. you can figure it out =)

[ben2nd]

@ColtonSaylor713 EDAC

[mvclb3]

Awesome job!

[Dosmosable]

Oh my god it's Jackie Chan!

[goerge4]

who else than pauliewanna to play the drums

[1965windsor]

awesome... very difficult some to play and sing..

[kayslay613]

Wow, a band as talented as Rush deserves a cover as epic as this!

[CiscoMcLovin]

singer looks like the new oompa loompa

[giorgio2112]

That's Joe Rocha on vocals... he's a MONSTER on the bass. check him out on the tube.

[protonelexe]

It takes 5 people to make what rush can do with just 3

[snowdoguk]

@protonelexe and your point is? :)

[protonelexe]

@snowdoguk That rush is awesome!

[analyzingfunny]

interesting 

[analyzingfunny]

intersting

[timemaster20]

Enjoyed the cover all around, but the vocalist was spot on!

[shredhappy101]

Guitar player looks like the Janitor from Scrubs lmao

[sonnyd124]

@shredhappy101 lmao

[jf99151]

That's good shit..... I'm happy to see people covering RUSH. It's damn difficult.

To the drummer, I like the fact that your room is literally filled with drums.... I like it.

[infamousNfamous]

@jf99151 haha his room IS a drum set.

[M3ltingP0t]

u guys rock man and one woman

[moko9hoko]

drummer is killin it

[soswim841]

this kid has got an awesome drum set.... :O

[Domenix71]

Really amazing! :-)

[pipedreamband]

Man - I love it! Even though you can't replace a band feeding off each other, that was still pretty cool. Who is the bass player?! I love you!!!!

[MyCarla27]

Good cover !!

[ryker6richard]

THAT IS FUCKEN HILARIOS DUDE,,, THE FAMILY HARD ROCK BAND CASUALY PLAYING RUSH!!!!!! AND THAT CHICK!! SHE WAS FANTASTICA ON THE BASS, I GIVE HER A 200%

[deadeyedan65]

[FranticSelf]

@deadeyedan65 Why? 'Cause he can drum better than you?

[rmspotter]

@deadeyedan65 Fire your English teacher!

[AdiMercury]

Very very good guys! Congratulations!

[iena42]

bravi

[xPBJ]

awesome! really well done!

[RitualistYijoTahn]

How do you make these type of videos with 3 videos in them

[manuelley1]

@RitualistYijoTahn theres a lot of software out there to do it, one of them its call ´sony vega´ im still lerning how to use it.

[danielmistralbassist]

I don't like the snare, too dry, the Hi-Hat sound pretty bad, the drum play is correct.

I like the guitar sound and play too.

Sorry but the bass player need play harder like Lee does, cero attitude siting in the chair.I dont like at all.

The Synth very cool.

The singer and the voice Incredible....the best.

Good video.

Any way is a thumb up to me.

Congratulations

[vineyardedge]

@danielmistralbassist Hi- I do play the bass harder normally, but at the time all I had to record sound with was the microphone in the camera and if I played any harder, it would distort the bass something awful. Sitting in a chair is more comfortable for me.

[mistygreen0108]

ビックリしました！！

それぞれのパートの方々見たことあるし。。。。。

お仲間だったんですね？

[theguitarzan]

The hi-hat sounds like trash can lids.

[prankster369]

Who could not like this? With all the crap music out today..its people like this that keep the great music/REAL MUSIC alive. Thank you for sharing your wonderful talents with us. btw  I think that the 10 people that said they didnt like it were meaning to click the Like it button...lol..

[Bandit42949]

I want to know who the beautiful lady is. I could hold that note forever

[Bandit42949]

I have to say. Thats dam perfect. The drummer to the singer. I want to know who the cutie is that is playing bass.......My god she is beautiful! I would hold her forever.

[revengefrommars]

YouTubers are usually really harsh critics. I see that out of 400 people, only 10 disliked this. I think that says a lot about how great a job you did on this.

[MrBigman300]

hes not singing

[snowdoguk]

@MrBigman300 of course he is singing

[MultiSillyputty]

The singer looks like hes floating......lol

[rhelminiak]

Sounds pretty good.!

[WayTooDazedConfus3d]

its an asian Geddy Lee, holy shit!

[LUXO2]

@WayTooDazedConfus3d

I think the same hahahaha

[grantyshmanty]

Amazing drummer. Such a tight sound.

[juggalopenguin1134]

is the singer in this vid the same guy that does the "bass in 60 seconds" videos?

[vineyardedge]

@juggalopenguin1134 Yes- that's Joe :D

[Steppeponytail]

Hey there...just Tube surfing...pretty sweet Rush cover...Damned fine job!

[mattdrum89]

i think the guitar solo was great

[mask8412]

oh snappp female bassist x] great video too :P

[greenorange75]

Wow. Singer looks a lot like Geddy Lee.

[1968BTW]

Wow! Fantastic job all of you. Thanks for posting.

[ChrisHaspeck]

just frickin great ! ..

although I have to say the guitar solo was very mechanical ..

lost the whole 'soul' to it

[phantumwolf]

I applaud all of you! RUSH is not the easiest band to cover in the first place, and Tom Sawyer is not the easiest of their songs to cover. You guys are just bad ass! Rock On! \m/

[morly11]

@phantumwolf wrong my step day learn how play that song in 2 days on the drums and the never took lesson day in his life

[hendrixxx111]

Amazing...everyone

[thirtyfourten]

flippin awesome guys

[guilmon182]

I really like this. He sounds a lot like the singer in the cover version on Rock Band.

[Ultrahuntr]

@guilmon182 Rock Band used all of the real songs.... it was the first two guitar heros that used covers.. i believe thats right

[guilmon182]

@Ultrahuntr Actually, Rock Band 1 used more covers than Rock Band 2. In Rock Band 1, "Tom Sawyer" is a cover by Harmonix.

[Ultrahuntr]

@guilmon182 well most of rock bands soundtrack was actual songs though

[guilmon182]

@Ultrahuntr I know, but they had covers. "Paranoid" was covered, "Tom Sawyer" was covered, and...that's all I can think of...

[jjohnson191]

Brilliant!

[simonwizzle91]

THIS IS SICK

[JeanHeartofPapas]

OMG Guys you Rock! :D. Great work and keep it going!

PD: Sometimes I prefer this singer than the Rush one haha.

[golfdom1987]

Awesome job! Great cover!

[pmsbassplayer]

The bass player rocks!

[killscooter]

drummer kicks ass!

[Louisvillebilly]

It didn't suck

[wowser77]

fuggin righteous.

[me1195]

singer is AWESOME

[RPJTheWhiteWolf]

I think we have found Geddy Lee's lost brother, I'm sure Geddy must have enjoyed this if he saw it man he probably told Alex and Neil "dude he looks just like me" funny thing is that he can really inpersonate Geddy Lee since he kinda looks like him and definitely sounds like Geddy lol Geddy is a great bassist but let's not forget about Alekzandar or Neil they're awesome too Rush rules! great cover btw

[normando41]

This song is one of my favorites.

Perfect job. Wonderful. I am not a pro, but I play bass in a year or less here in Brazil. And I'm a fan of this girl. Congratulations to the whole group. Sorry for my poor English.

[chmarsal]

Great work guys!!! Great Normando. Good English. I'm Claudio Marsal. I play the Eletric Guitar with Normando in a Garage Rock Band here in Brasil. We'll try to play this song as soon as we can because our not good skills yet. Sorry MY poor english. Congratulations. Infinity live to Rock!!!

[Brydenmc]

wow, i'm no pro but that sounded tight!

[almostfallenskater1]

I loved it

[beyoncelover202]

that drummer is awesome

[simpat9jko]

[luciusbarbus]

[lulitube53]

[kiritobi]

[simplehomosapien]

Thats Great!!

[ScalerWave]

Awesome Job !

[schrojo40]

This guy could pull of a great Neil Young cover

[LesGomez]

Great playing guys (and lady). Levels seem a little low. A shame on such a fantastic cover.

[MetallicaFran]

\m/

[cicerocezimbra]

Geddy Lee Chinese... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[Amphion9]

you guys are awsome!!

[vonkiser]

Man u gotta post that drum solo in its entirety though man.........thats the best part !!!!

[theskillet111]

Effin A

[TheAngusyoung12]

what program do u use?

[CoombesKidd]

omg, I remember the drummer from another video, great job putting this together

[cmedeiros17]

WOW!!!

[bryanoverturf1]

YOUR ROCKIN OUT ,,KILLER ,,,5

[n0c0ntr0ller]

guitarist looks like neil!

[cammybammy]

Rush is not an easy band to Cover....wow great job

[g4greg2u]

that was a very, very good cover..Covering rush isn't an easy feat, and you did a good job nevertheless!

[natobaden]

You done the song proud,,,

A big hats off and Salute !!!

[oktoplay]

This totally rocks!!!!!!!! Love RUSH..........

[TheHydroponica]

LMFAO AWESOME SINGER

[monyonk89]

wow awesome stuff!

I wonder how do u people managed to work together to create this..

Keep up the good work =D

[myspacceer]

isn't the asian dude a bass player too? i think i saw his bass vids somewhere on youtube

[ACELLOFAWARENESS]

we all know Paulie is one of the best but the hi-hat in this vid is not sounding optimum. And kudos to SnowdogUK, what a great fellow ambassador of our favorite band he is as well.

[Jaytheredneck1]

When listening to rush, you'll notice that the keyboard and bass guitar are never heard at the same time, that's because Geddy plays both. They can both be heard in the same song, but never at the same time.

[ACELLOFAWARENESS]

yes, except when he uses the bass pedals while playing keys :-)

[griffinmpable]

@ACELLOFAWARENESS he uses moog taurus foot synth

[doshus73]

@Jaytheredneck1 Live they use foot pedals for triggering certain notes while they play...

[gregvb]

Normally I don't care for cover groups, but I have to say, you guys did a heck of a job on this.

Nice job.

[magicsinglez]

Are there Geddy Lee groupies? If so, this guy is in. . .

[pestopalooza]

this is the best virtual band on youtube

[benlorenc]

@pestopalooza projectRnL or whatever is really sick too

[lovegunII]

awesome, great work, i remember this album and the song when it was released.

[Zorg702]

music unites us

(I love the bass and the bassist women n///n)

[Vordrab]

This video deserves so much more views... 10/5

[fiveminutewalk]

Excellent bass player!

[RobbieOtto]

man that was impressive , 5 stars

[MrAngel999]

what's that ibanez model?

[vineyardedge]

Yeah- you have a very nice ass, Paulie :) Huggzzz

[guilmon182]

Singer sounds like the singer for Rush covers on Rock Band.

[rick018]

Nice bass performance, i really envy you!

Great job fellas!!

Keep the faith!

[nigzin]

the drummer could relax more

[Javdoc]

Nicely done, guys. Great job!

[DekeBlue]

This is great. Thanks.

[demonfart]

man, that drummer is kicking ass in that drum set!

[Maverick274]

Is the singer the guy from "Bass in 60 seconds"? Looks a lot like him.

[vineyardedge]

Yes- that's Joe! He's very talented!!!

[theedeadidols]

Killer!

[Dthorn912]

Neat

[vineyardedge]

I love this video! :) SNOWDOG is THE MAN!

[raiderfan54]

the guitar player is especially good, i like this!!!

[BaSs4cE11]

wow didnt know joe sang as well as play the bass

[yosimite20]

Cool, but look at fat ass on the drums

[Maverick274]

Not about looks bro, music if very far past that.

[Pauliewanna]

Very constructive comment.

[Pauliewanna]

"fat ass" is not a joke... it's an insult -- deliberately constructed to inflict offense. I'm not offended, but really, looks have nothing to do with what we are all about.

[yosimite20]

If I was to insult you I would said your drumming skills suck., but obviously you are a good drummer and you are in a good sounding band. I call my friend Omari fat ass. He doesn't care at all. Thumbs Up for not getting mad Paul, I got to give you your props.

[Pauliewanna]

I can't be wasting my time getting mad at Youtube when there are SOOO many other things in life to be pissed off about. And... my gut is fat, but my ass is... nevermind... so GET IT RIGHT!!! Call me anything you want. As long as you're enjoying yourself.

[yosimite20]

Dude, I'm not making fun of you okay. Why in the hell would in the hell would I make fun of you, and there is a list full of things wrong with me.

[Pauliewanna]

Now, I was joking. See... it's pretty hard to tell without voice inflection, eh fatass?

[HubAndre]

I very much agree with you Paul. This is one of the bigger problems in this world, in particular the younger generation. They seem to have no morals. Media and education play a huge part in this. The fact that this Omari character doesn't care sends the wrong message.

[ScrewAttackChina]

i've always liked your ass, paulie. and your hair is usually quite cool, too.

[smotheredhope]

That is actually pretty fukcing sweet!

[hammop1]

Startlingly good. The whole virtual band idea just shows what a great thing the internet is. Without it, you guys would never have played together. I'm blown away by the quality of your Rush covers.

[TheRosettaStoned]

to the singer, from Chicago YOU SUCK!!!!

[andrewdalziel1990]

dude - you need to stop slating the singer!

He's probably the closest thing there is to Geddy Lee these days, and he makes a helluva effort, diva or not!

I'd like to see you do any better.....

[TheRosettaStoned]

closest thing to Geddy ???? WHERE???????

right in front of you - that man singing on the video.

it seems youre the only one who thinks hes not that great.

get over yourself....
