Rush's "New World Man" on bass - LRRG

[MrKaivalyapada]

Great sound!

[Scritley]

SOFA KING GOOD!

Man, you NAILED the song and that Rick sounds like nothing else... all bass riffs in heaven are played on a Rick, that's just all there is to it.

Well Done!!!

[bkrbtlg08]

amazing. RIP

[adebicki]

this is badass!!

[Strenzkee]

very good - SLAPPA DA BASS BIG TIME!!

[dookie491]

awesome job dude!

[MichaelBoryAlis]

would like to see the fingerwork closer up.

Awesome cover.

Who needs women when there is Rush to ALWAYS make you feel good.

[simplegrl11589]

damn nice job

[biedenweg]

Reminds me of Paul Rudd in the movie I Love You, Man.

[Painkill3r4]

Well done from a fellow Ric player.  Keep them coming!

[lifeson46]

the rick is the coolest looking and best sounding bass ever

[TheSkateNJ]

This song is way more boring to play without a Rick

[Ronbo710]

How Geddy sings and does all that is Awesome. Great Job !!!

[brianherrick2112]

kid! you are awesome! i didnt know until i saw your video how hard this song was to play on bass. great job!

[godallmightyhimself]

bass masterpiece

[BLDMLN1007]

this is sooo great.

[wuzup497]

Great tone, and you play so naturally. Really great job.

[almperkins]

great playing. its a mystery why Geddy went to a Fender bass haha. Awsum track :)

[petejblock]

hey rob i checked out geddy and your tone is so on, is it the rick or your effects

?

[zodiakironfist]

Its the Rick for sure.

[utubedestroysmytime]

@zodiakironfist give your self credit man! tone comes from the hands too man

[patient1234]

Awesmoe man.I like it.Great sound.5 STARS DEFINATELY.Can you see mine please?Thanks dude.Rock on

[Beemerboy324]

Hey Zod, I like that I can follow your fingering from this video. good job, well played.

Playing a song you like as a tribute to a band you like and doing it well so that others could see. Man you are SUCH a hardened criminal. ;-)

[pagliariluca]

So nice, very good my friend! Great timing and feel as well.

[petejblock]

hey rob i thought you said they pulled this video. what happened

[zodiakironfist]

I contested it, and WMG let it slide in the 14 days they had to respond. Shhhh....don't tell them!

That also means my black Sabbath's "Lord of this World" video and my Slayer's "Raining blood" were restored, as well. Cannot say the same for the Primus...they are UMG, and those vids were deleted.

[chordlove]

How did you record your bass for this recording?

It sounds fantastic! (the other bass recordings on most youtube videos sound terrible, probably from webcam mics)

[vineyardedge]

Sounds awesome- man I love that bass!

[Mig120375]

muito firulento

[devno9904]

two thumbs up bro-nice swords too!

[dido618]

I don't even want to know how many times you got laid after playing stuff like that...lol. Keep rocking and doing whats impossible for most of us...

[zodiakironfist]

LOL...not many. I have always been rather shy around the opposite sex, and females do not typically seek out the bass player first. In fact, I am so shy and clueless around women, I am lucky I found a wife (or rather...she found me if you believe her side of the tale).

[UPTHE1RON5]

'females do not typically seek out the bass player first'

gene simmons and nikki sixx beg to differ, heh

oh, and nice playing by the way :)

[kkellybass]

@dido618 Hey dido, he is a good bassist for sure. But chicks dont exactly flock to RUSH concerts. Much less to RUSH tribute bands. RUSH is a musicians band, not a chick magnet band.

[petejblock]

dude wat effects do you use on that ricky? you look like you enjoy what your doing. your avery good player

[zodiakironfist]

Thanks, and yes, I love to play. I use a little noise gate, quite a bit of compression, and I have a gain pedal which I depress just until it starts to distort.

[wolverine611]

Geddy Lee rocks, he made the bass player an exciting frontman for a band, not just the guitarist. Your playing is awesome bro, nice crisp,clean and clear. you can here every note and distinguish their values, not like your typical sloppy bassist, where they figure if you play it fast enough, no one will hear it or no better, keep up the great work.

[zodiakironfist]

Much appreciated. It's comments like this that keep me going.

[AyrsenF1]

One of my favorite songs, great job dude, you rock!!!

[zodiakironfist]

Thank you, and thanks for subscribing.  Would your two favorite bands be Maiden and Rush?

[AyrsenF1]

You bet dude!, keep up the good work, you're a great talent.

[AyrsenF1]

You got it dude, the two best bands of the galaxy.

[edsku]

Where you bought that bass?

[zodiakironfist]

I bought it 20 years ago in a music store...used or $450.

[klh1060]

Well done! I had a 71 4001 back in 1980 but never got that nice of a tone. Of course I played with a pick back then (loved Yes too - but of course!).

[zodiakironfist]

I've been known to flick a pick or two, as well. Thanks for the nice comment and rock on!!

[Nijuoki]

Good decoration with de swords xD and good job, i like so much who you play the bass, i wish be like you in the future xDD snif...

[Tensiveseth]

Are You Geddy Lee's Dad?

Lol.

You Are God.

[zodiakironfist]

LOL. Ummmm....I hope not. I'm only 36.  do I look THAT old? Geddy is in his 50's.

[Tensiveseth]

Im Sorry.

Lol.

Ur Jus REALLY Good.

Lol

[zodiakironfist]

No need to be sorry. I gave you a hard time about it even though I knew what you meant. I should have ended with an LOL.

[c11anderson]

ur a beast dude i watched u play suck my kiss and ur amazing haha props to u bro

[arglebarglefoofara]

dude your tone is friggin UNREAL...

[pigeonapocalypse]

wowie! it sounds just like the song! holy crap man!!

[j3rdog]

hey what effects are you running or is that the original rick tone?

[zodiakironfist]

A little compression and an EQ, but most of what you hear is the Rick tone...with a touch of overdrive.

[ahpinhed]

sounds really good

[anticoolsociety]

great job, is that the master sword on the wall?

[zodiakironfist]

Captain's sword, if you are referring to the longsword.

[Bonnaroo10klmf]

nice rick

[21tom12]

One thing to say to you...

Kick - ass.

[zodiakironfist]

Much appreciated, Nate.

[zappatx]

Had to come back to see what youve been up to.. How about filming outside in a park with the trees moving in the background??

[zodiakironfist]

That might be logistically difficult to drag my laptop, etc. to a park, but who knows? What would I play, Lakeside Park? The Trees? Analog Kid?

[creepingdeth428]

Nice work man, Geddy would be proud

[germatrix]

i was about saying the same thing

[SeedsFilm]

hell yea rush is fuckin awesome good job man im about to chek out some of your other videos right now

[zappagillan]

tremendo wn... se nota que te apasiona la musica y sobre too RUSH!!

[WGMSMan]

Killer bass!

[tool772]

Killer! Keep rockin' man.

[zodiakironfist]

I cannot stop myself!

[muaddib96]

I really enjoyed that!

[Drakkhim]

Great song and great playing.

[robass5]

awesome

[RandomTuber782]

that was nice. with or without the severed index?

[zodiakironfist]

Thanks. I played this without the injury.. John the Fisherman was the last recording I made yesterday.  You can tell by two factors. One, the sweat around my collar (this standing up business is tiring). Two, it got stormy outside, and the latter videos were darker.

[nairbfry]

Top notch playing!
