This isn't just a cover... this is Rush preservation

[giovannibiondi]

Only Mike can play with the same saund as Neil. All good, best Rush cover. Please mike keep Neil's genius alive

[kevincrooks]

50 year Rush fan here. You guys killed it. Best Rush cover I've ever heard. Wept for a moment remembering Neal.

[lindsaynewell]

For 6 and a half minutes I was transported back to 12 year old me in 1976. Thank you.

[Mac-ixqp]

Pretty damn tight. If I had to pick a drummer to play RUSH it would be Portnoy. Great!

[sickaydamars]

That was the best I have ever heard any cover band play 2112, It was impossible to hold back the tears.

[robertdendooven]

A great way to remember and celebrate Neil Peart's life. Thanks to all the musicians involved at this event.

[edster]

The instrumentation was great, the mix was good, everyone was unbelievable...but when that vocalist came in, I got chills. She's amazing.

[shaney]

The bass player's tone is freakin' killing it...

[davelospinoso]

Amazing performance by all. The drummer is absolutely locked in, love to see it

[Emmanuelwithus]

DAMN that was good. The whole band is absolutely top shelf, yet they need to be, as they're covering one of the greatest bands ever that was comprised of ONLY three musicians. Adding the legendary Mike Portnoy in for Neil and also that georgeous female vocalist with the sassy, edgy and buttery, Pat Benetar style chops singing Geddy Lee's part and sounding like him, was just amazing! BRAVO!!
R.I.P. Neil!

[mikeoutdoors]

Even better with Portnoy, arguably one of the best drummers anywhere in the world!

[bigvicious]

Man I wish I was there. Literally a dream come true just seeing Portnoy play this.

[ararefish]

The struggle of playing on a kit set up for someone else! Mike still killed it

[chadlecraft]

When she started singing I started to tear up. Nailed it. Brought me back to my teenage years hearing them play live. Thank you!!

[dodokdai]

Lagu ne rush dimainke sopo ae tetep dahsyat.... Top markotop....

[RandallHeath]

They are so, so good. Got to see them in a tiny Connecticut venue in Jan 2024 - very impressive.

[MarkLindell]

That is the best cover or 2112 I have ever heard live.

[watchmakerfs]

Great editing and mix! Also, 2112 with Patty on vocals from the soundboard is awesome!

[MoorWalkerPro]

Amazing that’s the closest drumming and feel that I’ve ever seen to Neil. I’ve heard a lot of covers and there’s just that little bit missing but this was perfection. Just really fantastic
