I love the little kids running away at the bottom left, during the start of video. Those poor children will never be the same.

I shake my head in utter bemusement when I hear a Moist tune these days. These guys were fantastic musicians and songwriters, with a world-class front-man. They had music that could target many musical audiences and had potential to break big in the east Asia. What the hell happened? It is next ...

Iron Maiden is a MASSIVE touriing act. I wonder why they would play for 180K a night? Something doesn't make sense.

The singer has just tweeted that he has left the band with the keyboard player, citing "artistic differences." However, they left joyous news that a new "solo" video will be released on youtube this year.

Tori Amos is one the best best songwriters to emerge in the last 50 years, and I always appreciated the incredible musicanship and structure of this this song: however, the lyrical meaning went way over my head. Now that my dear wife has miscarried four times (and perhaps more), I can say that I ...

That cat is a fine drummer. His technique if purrfect, but he tends to paws a little too long at the tail end of each part.

I love this. Thanks so much for posting it. In Beyond the Lighted Stage, Geddy mentions he felt massively alienated from his friends and family at this time, and you can certainly hear that in the latter part of this interview. The "Val" he mentioned, is of course Val Azolli, who left Rush to bec...

Neil Young is really the only songwriter I know that can write (what is really) a bittersweet love song with pretty melodies, and morph it into a can of Canadian whoop-ass rock and roll. This great song is splendid mass of contradictions.

I love this. Hockey and Neil Peart's drumming are two fine examples of Canadiana, and two very fine compliments - like love and marriage, or beer and wings!

Note: the love and marriage comment keyed as my wife walked by. Bonus points eh? :)

@zfreak1981 or freakishly stupid.

Thank you very much for posting this. Well done. This is a much better solo than the Snakes & Arrows tour.

Good grief, what has happened to Neil? He has always been in tremendous shape. In the V-drums section you can see a huge beer gut. It must be hard to play with the kind of intensity that he...

You know a band occupies some kind of unique universe when you have Les Claypool as a fan.

Yikes - this band has to get better management. This is a profoundly brilliant song, and it has what, 60 000 hits? I would love to buy this album, but it is not on Itunes. Given the band's connection with Rush, I am not entire sure why they are not out touring with them? They would be a great fit.

I really appreciate all of Pete Seegar's accomplishments and contributions over an amazing lifetime. However, this song is a little hypocritical. Judging from his biography, Seeger probably took a thousand or more flights in his life. His carbon footprint would take up a New York city block. This...

This is the song that introduced me to Rush. I cannot begin to articulate the amount of joy this band has give me over my life. A Rush fan is not a typical music fan!

I appreciate the inclusion Jimmy Bryant who was always about 50 years ahead of his time. Country on speed! :)

Why do 17 people dislike Buckethead? Just because he got his freedom? It just ain't right to hate! :)

Great band.

Through all the strangeness, there is effortless, top drawer musicianship. They are all virtuoso players in every sense of the word.
