Character? What character? Are you talking about that bit Bubbles does where he pretends to be some cocksucker named Mike Smith?

Love you bubbles

This comment deserves the most likes ever.

See this Randy, when someone like Alex Lifeson gives you a fucking T-Shirt to put on, you're putting the fucking thing on. LOL

@@bdr32965 Randy doesnt wear t shirts Mr. Lifeson . Not even in the winter .

lmao

Maybe if they were also playing hockey..... Neil would have to be goalie, I think.....

Alexander Rogers+ they forgot the maple syrup.

And a Molson.

Now only if it was done during the first intermission of a hockey game at a frozen-over Tim Hortons parking lot.

Thee Mad Malone agreed rest easy Neil

Yea man, when I heard the news I had to go on a binge of Peart performances.... All I can say is: "Exit the warrior"

Yes, 2 scotch. One for me and one for The Professor.

As soon as I heard about this news I couldn't bel it

Rip Neil Peart. One of the greats.

Guitarpunkmasta no big deal Ricky just went out and stole a human being

Jeremy Nelson play that Dianne Sawyer song

I feel like you all are in the rickyisms group on face book

The Real Goopy Goop nope, i don't facebook. Its just that I've seen every tpb episode 2 or 3 times or more.

When someone like Alex Lifeson, tells you to put a fucking shirt on. You’re putting the fucking thing on

Take Off! To The Great White North!

I love the original fell in love with it when the album came out. My brother (RIP Jimbo) was a huge influence on me and the music I listened to and introduced me to Rush. When I heard this version though I agree made it even better. I just wish we hadn't lost Neil even today two years later I'm still crushed we lost Neil and knowing the day we lost Neil we lost Rush. I am always going back and listening to them but it's harder to listen now knowing Neil is gone and I'll admit even makes me cry because Neil wrong such beautiful music. (RIP Neil)

The first was mckenzie brothers all though bit thesame song but rush did this long along... take off ehh.

I think the tone of the Telecaster here suits the song way better than the Gibsons too tbh

His voice has deteriorated since this video posted. It was fine up until around 2009 - 2010 when he started to lose his range. Now it's a lot more noticable.

You do know Rush has basically retired, right? Neil can't drum long-term anymore so they're barely going to tour with Rush at all anymore.

Blu

Couldn't agree more. Bubbles killed it!!!

I was thinking the same thing, particularly in the second verse it sounded really good.

Ed from BNL too.

100% agreed

Because geddy lee is a god

Peart was great, Bonham was the greatest

Stop being a wuss

@@cpeacock1973 Bonham couldn't come close to the technical ability and precision of Neil Peart , Rush music is technically very hard to play , Bonham was drunk or stoned most of the time and would be shocked at the talent of Neil Peart !

WELL SAID BROTHER!

Well said sir well said 😎👍

At least it was bubbles and not Corey or Trevor.. those two are fuckin dumb

Mike Smith/Bubbles was a guitarist in a band before.

Nithin Patil yep, Sandbox, a band from Atlantic Canada.

Deee-heee-heecent

Rush ended when Neil announced his retirement from touring. Alex said they wouldn't continue without him

thebigfranker For F sake...the point is, death brings finality. If Neil we’re still walking the earth, the POSSIBILITY would remain.

@@mikemeyer7759 nope his hands and wrist were "shot". Full of arthritis and severe pain.

So tragic not just for Neil. Alex commented recently that he has not been inspired since Neil died. Don't know if he still plays golf, which was his other passion. Haven't heard if Geddy has made any statements concerning Neil's death other than the one he put out in the immediate aftermath. Hope at some point both of them can find some peace and inspiration and put out some new music, either together or as individuals.

@@geetarman Granted that Peart was also the lyricist. But to say that Bonzo could just be "replaced" is the most ignorant comment I have read. Bonzo wasn't simply a drummer, just like Peart. He was an amazing talent. They are 1 and 1A in the ranks of the greatest rock drummers of all time. You tell The Who about just replacing Keith Moon. They NEVER sounded the same. Neither would Zeppelin without Bonham. What a stupid comment. Bonzo was every bit the "engine" that Peart was.

Why

@@tyorbs3680 Becuase at the time of the comment, Neil Peart had just passed away.

you do know he's an actor right? living in a big house for sure loaded with cash

@@deadsoulz98 over your head

@@littleboy129 What?

……Give me a fuckin r

Oh shit I haven’t laughed that hard in a while.

Helix sucks

I was wondering if that was him.

Thanks for clearing that up. Always wondered who that was.

Thanks for giving me his name. I was like, I know that dude from somewhere. He was such a kid back then.

Thanks Ed@@jmb8989

He was only borrowing him for a few seconds

Alex is a f’n beast.... as a drummer myself I’ve always felt he was under appreciated.

Alex, Geddy and Neil imho never got as much love and appreciation for what they do. They were perfectionists if what they wrote or the sound they weren't doing wasn't to their high standards they kept pushing themselves to get it perfect not just putting songs out there to make money. They are and will always be true "Artists"

3 of the all time greats.

Haha same thing here 7 years later!❤❤

He was also in a band called sandbox, check out curious. Great track and Canadian band.

Woody81 LOOKS LIKE WE GOTTA SHIT STORM TROOPER

Woody81 You are on crack. Ginger Baker sure. I think you'll need to do research. Many drummers concur Neil is the best in interview after interview. Intricacy of an orchestra. Skill beyond any. Size of drum kit makes him less talented wtf does that mean? He knows how to use many more percussion instruments and therefore is less talented. There weren't many before GB to mimic, modify, or emulate in that style. By the way GB style is simplistic with not much stop times and or time changes. Rush was recording near heavy metal 10 years before you were born sir. Professor, songwriter, hall of famer. To be fair GB is a famer as well, but he hasn't done diddly since Cream. Rush has done how many albums since Cream disbanded. GB is also a douche in interviews and in general.

Woody81 lol

Nah Bradley Eric and bud 😬

R Kline it's mic not mike

Me to mu dad was the one who introduced me to rush

Its sweet, Patrick SWAYZE.

***** my favorite thing was the disclaimer in the beginning of the episodes

You know nothing about the pain they were in.

​@@kathrynkazoopain and drama are two very different things.

@fjorgyn7438 perhaps. That's why they kept quitting touring. The drummer was suffering. They were all suffering. Guitar players suffer. Drummers suffer. I worked a year creating pain free guitar playing. There is a lot of pain with music. Pain and suffering is not without drama.

fuckin way she goes
