RIP Taylor Hawkins

[Lozz196]

Yep, The Pretenders are a great band, unlike many of the older singers Chrissie Hynde has managed to keep her voice, possibly through always singing quite deep rather than at the top of her range.

[Eldon Tyrell]

Looking forward to RUSH next 🤩

[Doctor J]

These very decent musicians butchering The Police really highlights how skilled Copeland, Sting and Summers really are.

[toneknob]

they're getting their money's worth out of Gaz Coombes today though

I'd never heard of them, but they were fantastic (did you notice his trousers started falling apart? 😄)

The great Joe Walsh, superb guitarist, been a member of the Eagles since 1975.

Grohl playing for Rush is pretty focken cool, I'll be honest

[Eldon Tyrell]

2112 Part I: Overture. Nice 😀

[Doctor J]

There poor event junkies in the crowd have no idea what's going on or who these people are 🤣

He looks like being in full Animal from the Muppets mode 😉 

[Eldon Tyrell]

Working man next. Man, I really regret never having seen Rush live 😞

A cynic might suggest the concert feels more like a tribute to how versitle and great Dave Grohl is.

Or look how wonderful my child is. See also Genesis

(Violet is pretty good though)

[Doctor J]

 

Exceptionally cool.

90 more minutes of this, please.

YYZ. Amazing

But Dave's not on the drums? Maybe a bit above his pay grade? 😉 

[Doctor J]

Compare the static Wembley crowd to the near-riot on the Rush In Rio video 😀

Well done to Grohl for giving them some decent set time ☺️

[Doctor J]

This new guy is superb but, as if I didn't realise it before, Peart was utterly sublime.

Omar Hakim 😅

 

I'll get my coat!

 

I didn't recognise him.

[ern500evo]

Omar Hakim is a fantastic drummer 

[Eldon Tyrell]

Omar is great, he also played with Chic during Bernard Edward's last ever gig - Live at the Budokan in 96!

[steantval]

Bass masterclass over 👍👍👍👍👍👍

 

Dave stepped down from the drumming duties on YYZ.

[ezbass]

Poor old Dave, he did seem a bit out of his depth with Geddy & Alex. 
 

Stewart Copeland made it look effortless, still one of my favourite drummers.

[toneknob]

Omar was amazing but did you see the look on his face a couple of times 😵

 

Can any Geddy geeks tell me more about his Jazz?

 

Other highlights (I'm on catch-up a bit): Copeland, Let There Be Rock

 

 

 

[toneknob]

Also, this is the best Geddy's voice has sounded since the Snakes & Arrows tour

It looked very much like he was counting and I’m sure there was a hiccup in there somewhere.
