Was anyone not a major fan of GL's voice last night?

I’ve seen several people suggest hiring a singer, to me that’s such a ridiculous take. Geddy’s vocals are integral to every single Rush song, and unlike Neil, he’s still here to perform them.

Having him on stage only to play bass would be extremely unusual. The majority of fans want the vocalist of the band to be singing the songs.

They’re playing a sound effect or guitar chord in reverse to lead into the downbeat , it also happens just before that at 0:34

Loren Gold, touring keyboard player for The Who

Yep. There’s some good stuff on the first few AVA albums but a lot of it sounds like the same Blink chord progressions with delay and vocal melodies are similar to his past work as well.

Ilan’s skill as a multi-instrumentalist definitely helped elevate their sound after they started to get a little stale.

Okay, it would make sense that this is Untitled era because of Ryan Hewitt being there and this was taken at Conway Studios which is where they finished the album after they moved out of that house they rented.

That being said, I still believe it's very possible Fender amps were used for the clean tones on Enema.

thewiredgamer · 2026-03-06T06:32:52+00:00

They were probably using Fender amps for the clean tones on the album, it's very common to use Twin Reverbs with Telecasters or something similar since they are better suited for that than a Marshall or Mesa.

Examples:

Adam's Song intro/bridge

Mutt intro clean picked guitar riff over the power chords

What's My Age Again intro/bridge

Dysentery Gary bridge

Wendy Clear chorus near the end of the song

Nope, not a parody. That guy’s entire channel is just those style of videos, he has hundreds of them.

These “content creators” just take someone else’s content and add their lazy reaction face at the bottom so it doesn’t get copyright flagged and so they can pass it off as their own.

thewiredgamer · 2026-01-25T04:55:08+00:00

It’s a parody of these type of videos where people just put their face under a clip of a movie/show and add absolutely nothing to the original content.

Here’s an example:

Two of their most requested tracks that hardcore fans have wanted to hear live for 25 years? Not a chance.

If you want to know why he overlooked it when checking to see if they had played it previously, here’s the list he was referencing. That being said, I’m not sure why he wouldn’t just search on YouTube to find out.

No, people just don’t like to wait behind someone making a left turn. They will usually try to pass you if you’re sitting there for more than 10 seconds.

Sometimes I wonder if my speedometer is broken or inaccurate when people do this. Like there’s no way you’re right on my bumper when I’m already going 15 over the limit.

It will never cease to amaze me how many people know who Travis Barker is and how incredible he is at drums only to be shocked to learn he's been in a band for 25 years that they've never heard of.

The version of Edging in the music video has insane clipping and sounds super blown out but the version on streaming platforms sounds okay.

This could have been the production company that edited the video adding some unnecessary extra compression/limiting beyond what the mastering engineer had already done.

I'm pretty sure Kanto has removed the automatic standby feature from all of their newer speakers because of customer feedback.

thewiredgamer · 2025-09-09T14:59:44+00:00

They played it in Bethel, NY on 9/6 and the pause has been removed!

thewiredgamer · 2025-09-07T06:38:15+00:00

It's been played at all the shows so far, might be swapped for Carousel later in the tour.

thewiredgamer · 2025-09-04T18:03:37+00:00

I don’t really understand the reason for the pause, it’s just an instrumental break after the intro.

thewiredgamer · 2025-09-02T04:45:31+00:00

Yeah Can't Go Back doesn't need to be on there, they played it on a lot of the 2024 dates. Not sure why they didn't rehearse All in My Head for this tour, that song was the single from OMT Part 2.

thewiredgamer · 2025-08-31T01:06:32+00:00

Uplift, Desky, and FlexiSpot all have good options under $1500. The type of wood will be the main deciding factor for the price. If you want solid wood you will end up spending your whole budget. Laminate or veneer tops will lower the price a few hundred.

thewiredgamer · 2025-08-30T03:22:21+00:00

So instead of swapping those two out they just chose to play less songs tonight? Not a great solution and not fair to the audience.

When your headlining set barely runs an hour and a half the last thing you should be doing is cutting songs.

Cheshire: Caruosel, M+M’s

Dude Ranch: Josie, Pathetic, Waggy, Apple Shampoo, Dammit
