@deadwood753100 when the screen was showing the word "failed" it was also showing a character behind a drumset, meaning that the person behind the rockband drumset( in this case it was Neil) was the one that failed the song.

Who failed???

I love how Geddy looked amused, Alex was really struggling and Neil just looked bored

I love playing Rock Band and Guitar Hero and games like that because it's a nice break from an actual intrument and it's fun to play with friends and family because they may not play an instrument. It's all for fun! Plus, it turns people onto some cool music! I wouldn't have found out about a lot of music I like if it weren't for games like this. I think it was really awesome that Rush gave Tom Sawyer a shot on the game! Radical! :D

Poor Alex. He started out trying to play the guitar like a real one. Kudos to them for giving it a try!

[schindelerium]

Ahaha, this is hilarious. Kudos to Rush for having a great sense of humor about themselves.

People are being too hard on Rock Band. It's not meant to replace real instruments, it's about having fun. Sure, when people think they're actual musicians because they're good at Rock Band, then there's a problem, but that's not the game's fault. Learning an instrument is damn hard, frustrating and time-consuming, and not everyone can commit. That's what Rock Band is for, so everyone calm your tits.

Kept expecting Neil to break the stupid POS. I've played it, you have to be slightly ahead of time for it register, which means you're learning to play incorrectly. If you try hanging of the back of the beat 'in the pocket' you fail quickly. It's pretty worthless.

I also agree video games have created a generation of kids with a hugely inflated sense of confidence that is 100% unfounded in reality.

Neil is just sitting there like "wtf".
