Probably their most accessible and popular instrumental. YYZ is the airport code for Pearson International in Toronto and the familiar theme in the song is morse code for y y z.

  • It seems like the whole video up until the first big fill at 2:26 you are so chill, relaxed, and serious. But then you explode!

  • @godzillafireman Blame Neil!

  • You look disappointed with your fill at 3:01. I'd be so psyched if I hit that as good as you did that I wouldn't be able to finish the song.

  • I look disappointed because I missed a couple of tom hits and hit the left cymbal a beat earlier than I should have.

  • is the microphone on your ride in need of repair sounds like its only getting mid frequencies

  • Actually, during this video shoot, the mic cord was loose (unbeknownst to me) so really the only ride sound you are hearing is it leaking through the tom mics which are in fact, specifically designed for mid/low frequencies. This recording was done quite a while ago when I was still working with sound issues. I'm a beginner.

  • You're impossible, man! YYZ is crazily hard and you handled this in a masterly fashion !!

    Thanks for sharing the vid!

  • I'm not one for swearing, but this is fucking awesome!

  • @Pauliewanna you make it sound like a math formula its music let it flow

  • Good Job!

  • People who play the drums and like Rush are so critical. This is fantastic!

    You have this stuff down.

  • I love it!

  • omfg.......yessss

  • Excellent job again. The only thing and this is very small is that your High Hat sounds too loose for this song. It could stand to be a little crisper and tighter. Still an excellent job and keep up the awesome work! :)
