RUSH Fans: Check This Out

[Taylor Player]

I was floored when I watched this cover of YYZ on keyboards.

Check out this girl's foot work to hold down the bass line while she nails the rhythm and lead guitars along with the synth line on the keys:

Omg!

Oh yea, I saw that awhile back...good stuff! Incredibly difficult song to play and she pulls it off.

You can spend hours watching all the Rush tributes/covers on Youtube.

I like this one from Jacob Moon, it really brings out the beauty of this song (which many wouldn't think of in that way) that translates very well into acoustic:

Rush was even so impressed by Moon's version they invited him to play it at their Canadian Songwriter Hall of Fame induction gala (which he did).

Video of the rehearsal for that is here:

And more info and vids of other Rush related gatherings he has played it at can be found here:

She's a virtuoso to be sure!

Very good, but I want her synth! I have a prosumer synth and I can't get the electric guitar mode to sound like that.
