Wonder who will drum with Geddy and Alex.  The thought of either Omar Hakim or Stewart Copeland playing with them is blowing my mind..

Agree, wonder if Geddy will sing or just play bass.

If it's Copeland, they might play a couple of mash-ups:
Every Breath You Take A Friend
Can't Stand Losing It

I suppose we ought to be doing Rush/Foo Fighters mash ups, but I'm buggered if I can think of a Foo Fighters song - and I've got their first album...

John Paul Jones, Nile Rogers, Krist Novoselic and Nandi Bushell all now added.

There's a lot of bottom end on show!

Quote from: Slim on June 16, 2022, 08:55:39 PMGoing to have to see if I can go. I don't even like the Foo Fighters. In fact to me the Foo Fighters are the weirdest phenomenon in all of music, like if Ringo played guitar in a band that became bigger than The Beatles.

I agree foo fighters suck. I had a friend way back who was in to Nirvana and then Foo fighters he kept banging on how good the drumming was and "just listen drumming to the off beat" what ever that meant and he hated Rush.

Then a few years down the line we all find out Dave Grohl was a Rush fan. Although I think DG is a bit of a rent a quote and fan of everyone. Talented musician but his music sucks

Slim

I'm not saying they suck. I find some of their stuff eminently listenable. But as a general assessment, I don't actively like them.

As huge as they are, I don't know a single tune by them. At least, not that I am aware of.

Slim

There's a nifty tune called Rope that might well appeal to other Rush fans, certainly I quite like it. it has a bit of energy and quirk.

Apart from that, I know one called Rosemary. Can't name any others though I'm sure I'd recognise some of them if I heard them.

Staples of rock radio include:

Monkey Wrench
Times Like These
Learn To Fly
All My Life
Everlong
This Is A Call
My Hero
Breakout
Walk
Rope (as aforementioned)

Which are all great - though there's also some duffers (in my opinion):
Best Of You
The Pretender
In Your Honour
