When you have such mastery over your instruments, you get this. Exactly how Freddie Mercury could get an entire crowd to do the call-response with him, whether it was in person, across the ocean on tv, or years after his death
Oh hell yeah, they were like an organism that was driven by their music! Can just imagine what they felt in seeing the crowd reaction. Overwhelming I imagine
Not only that, but at North American Rush shows, how often did you this many women in the audience! South American girls have no interest in Justin Bieber! They love their hard rock music.
@@jeremysmith9696 Not sure how many times I have heard the song. Better know it as they my hometown band! Was a kid when this new! However this version can still give a chill like it's being seen for the 1st of countless times! The HOF induction very cool! To hear Toronto and the crowd goes crazy is cool! Possibly even very cool!!😀🇨🇦
I like Alex's comment in response to a reporter's question on how it took so long for them to get down there (to South America) to perform. He replied something like "Well I over-slept, had to brush my teeth and then the elevator had issues - but we're here now!"
And some think us Canadians are boring!! Was 12 when this came out! This does make the studio version sound average! Great crowd!! Still have not got tired of it!!
@@genedrakes686 i remember when it first came out and i bought the LP. i listened to it and, even though i liked Tom Sawyer and Limelight, i just didn't get it ! took me listening to it off and on over and over again to finally get it....then i understood that this is probably the best album they have ever done and the only album of theirs that i listen to front to back to this day !
I'm sure the first time I saw Rush was on the Grace under Pressure tour in 85. Marillion opened for them. At Radio City Music Hall. The funny thing was this was one of the first rock shows to play at R.C. The ushers were all old geezers who were accustomed to dealing with Christmas shows and lighter family fare. They were yelling at the fans not to stand up during the show! Guess who won out. I actually saw Dire Straits at the hall later that year or perhaps 86 and the ushers had obviously been told my management to knock off their bully tactics. Both great shows and the acoustics in that hall are phenomenal. Better days,(sigh).
@@kevinmcdonald6477 I also saw Rush for the first time on Grace Under pressure....I was 14 years old and was fucking blown away. Saw them 25 more times after that
I do not often reply to someones post, but you are spot on with your comment their music will live on long after my generation has passed on I was born in the 60's the last of the Baby Boomer;s but at least I got to grow up with Rush
As I've read once: "the crowd feat. Rush. It has taken so long for us brazilians to meet those three we were simply out of Control. And the setlist was perfect. Just perfect. YYZ and 2112 are stuck on me till forever.
The crowd sucks...a bunch of newbies jumping around who know nothing about "our" band. Place any American rock band in that hall and that inebriated crowd will freak out.
Geddy Lee: "We didn't even know if anyone from South America had even heard of us." How could anyone on this planet have never heard of RUSH? Well done Brazil!!!!!!
@@ThatPerthFan So sad - will pray for all you as well Down Under. And keep up the good fight against total tyrannical control over your lives as your government uses COVID19 as justification to do so. Stay firm - hold the line. We are dealing with it here as well
Over the years I have come to find that a lot of people know of Rush and have an opinion already without even listening to their music. Very similar thing with the Grateful Dead in my opinion.
@@lucasesteves4366 I believe its a "millenials" thing, man... Posting it ointo social media aparently has become more important than actually being there, present, in the moment... you know???
Definitely one of the best concerts I've ever seen. Rush is incredible, and gotta give it up to the Brazilians, they break the mold that hot girls don't like Rush, and also nobody is on their goddamn cellphones, just living in the moment how every concert should be!
Well said, I've been to hundreds of shows, hundreds of bands, clubs to stadiums and I have never seen crowds react the way the fans in Brazil react. Always puts a smile on my face.
I'm Scottish and before I die I have to go to a concert in South America. Whether it's Argentina or Brazil or wherever the crowds are fuckin phenomenal
@@zachsmith3 Yes, it was. In fact, first time they ever came to South America at all. Geddy said he didn't even know that Rush had any South American fans at all, only to be met with this...
@@MrConstantine02 same thing happened with Pearl Jam, their first gig in Brazil was only in 2003 or so, after that Eddie Vedder gave an interview saying how stupid they were for not coming there earlier, given how amazing the crowd was. After that first show, they went to Brazil every tour.
Another amazing factor is the age of the audience. Teenagers and all others rocking to music made 40 years ago and played by artists in their 60's. There will never be another rush like Rush. RIP Neil.
That was 2003. They were 50 then and 22 years had passed since Moving Pictures. But even in their last live concerts in 2015, they still delivered. So in a sense, you are right.
+Fastguitars There is so much evidence that dates back to the early 70s that that everyone els around the world especially Europe are better at enjoying Concerts than us Americans lol
April 18,2023, Toronto Canada, I am humbled watching these fans loving our Rush, knowing every note, every pause and every word of every song. Such amazing Fans in Rio ❤ They showed us the Love ! Look at their beautiful faces ! I’m so humbled by these beautiful faces ❤.
I have been a Rush fan for 40 years and watching this video has blown me away. The crowd witnessed their magic that night, and responded accordingly. Much respect to Rush and the Brazilians.....
Yup. I remember going to the record store to buy the vinyl album of Moving Pictures when it was released. I have seen them in concert three times and am just reminiscing a bit. Definitely a legend and influence to many of us, Peace.
@@samriddell5982 Whoa! That's a tough question. Tom Sawyer hits pretty high up for me personally. YYZ or LA VILLA STRANGIATO.... Fly By Night? I have been listening to a bunch of my favorites right now. What about you?
EVERY INDIVIDUAL BRAZILIAN IS EQUIVALENT TO 1 WHOLE NOTE! AND THEY SING TOGETHER!? ITS A "RUSH" CONCERT WITH BRAZILIAN HUMAN ORCHESTRA SYMPHONY! I SALUTE TO ALL OF YOU "RUSH" AND THE LOVELY CROWDS!
the crowd in this moment became the 4th member of RUSH. Also isolate Geddy on this version of YYZ, its some of the sickest hardest perfect bass playing that has ever been done.
How do I even write a comment that's worthy of this performance? I challenge *anybody* to find another video where the crowd and the band were anywhere close to being this much in sync, lost in the energy, giving absolutely 100% to each other. Not to mention that Rush nailed this live performance far better than their recorded one. Love these guys. And to be able to live the rest of your life, however short (RIP Neil), with this memory... just wow.
The only one that comes to mind was Metallica playing Enter Sandman in front of 1.6m people in Moscow towards the end days of the Soviet Union. That was in the midst of people tasting relative freedom after 40+ years of anti-west sentiment and oppression. And it still wasn't as good as this!
You rarely ever saw the guys in Rush react or vibe with the crowd. They were always so locked in to what they were doing. But here they were blown away. Even Neil was watching the crowd.
Are u still in Rio is it true that cell phones have made the crowds there less energetic as they use to be since there more interested in taking selfies and posting on social media as they are watching the band play ? Cell phones made USA concerts boring and dumb like everyone's filming the entire concert over here .
RIP Neil Peart: virtuoso drummer, lyricist and author. YYZ: The aviation code for Toronto's, Pearson Airport is YYZ. Neil heard the Morse Code and jammed with Geddy and they all came up with this! When the band saw YYZ on their luggage it meant they were coming home-to Canada-to us...
Nothing like going to a rock concert in South America, especially Brazil. I had the great experience of living in Brazil for three years. I saw show sin Buenos Aires and Sao Paulo and the crowds were always amazing.
yeah thats how we do it man... ha ..i saw them in america as well..but im back in brasil and i went to see them agaian...i was there at this concert...was a lot of fun..
Saw Rush 13 times. While I don't think everyone just "sat there," I can tell you that American crowds changed after the Rush in Rio video dropped. Best live album ever. Best live convert video ever. These are clearly football fans. Go to a football match, you'll see fans going off like this. (Not American football, what the rest of the world calls football and we call soccer).
Acacio Siqueira Me neither! The closest I’ve ever seen was AC/DC live in River Plate, and even the crowd at that show isn’t even on the same level as the crowd was at this show. Too bad I wasn’t even born in 2002.
I saw AC/DC in Paris during the same tour, and for me it was the most disappointing crowd I've ever seen, the show was great, but I was just in the middle of old dudes just standing there like they were watching TV... The opposite with what's recorded at River Plate. I just think Parisians are dickheads, and paris isn't rock n' roll, South America is not a natural place for this too, but at least people there know how to have fun.
@@pipespeeps5349 People always say that cause the internet never puts him on their top 5 or top 10 lists as opposed to Geddy and (specifically) Neil when it comes to their instruments. But honestly it means nothing - fans of Rush know the deal and that's all that's ever meant anything to Alex. Rush transcends "top lists" and other mundane BS.
I mean any guitar player I know adores him. He may not have that mainstream household name like an EVH or even Carlos Santana But Rush is very much a musician's band, yknow. He's easily in my top 3 biggest influences to even play guitar in the first place. I'd put him above Iommi
Jesus it looked like I was tripping almost the way the crowd was jumping up and down. Looked almost like they were just waves rising and falling, they were so synced up. Why can't north american audiences be that rowdy?
@Old man this people arent poor, but this was the first rush show in Brazil, so that is a factor. But brazilian audience was like that on every show, not only on big international ones. Rich or poor.
Honestly, there’s almost nothing in the world like South American rock fans. This show, Alice In Chains at Hollywood Rock, Queen back in the day, Argentina coining the “aguante megadeth” chant. The artist appreciation down there is so explosive and pure.
Greatest music fans on the planet. And they thought they might not even know who they are?! They were selling them short. God bless Brazil. And God bless our Canadians boys
At Le Zénith, Paris, France... less than 1700 during Roll The Bones Tour. It was my very first gig... UNBELIEVABLE! I was 14. Except for England and Germany, Rush never won the hearts of Europeans...
Mano, a morte dele me dói tanto, eu às vezes até esqueço que faz tão pouco. Acho que é porque não vai existir nada igual a ele. O único baterista que pulava o sarrafo na mesma altura, na minha opinião, era o Jonh Bonham que se foi eu tinha 1 ano de idade.
God please bless the people of Brazil who never fail to love their band. They did the same for Queen concerts. What a wonderful, beautiful way to show and give love. Brazil goes to a concert and act like it's their job, like their life depended on it!!! I love you back Brazil!!!
Essa noite deve ter sido incrível, ver milhares de pessoas cantando uma música instrumental faz eu perceber o quanto Rush é incrível, descanse em paz professor Neil Peart...
Incredible response.. the audience totally in tune with the vibe. It's magic in a sense. I bet the band loved the Brazilian audiences. The Stones get the same
I used to watch this every once in awhile, because it always gives me goose bumps. 60,000 singing along to an instrumental in a country RUSH had never visited prior to that tour. Now, I watch with the same goose bumps, along with tears in my eyes, and the feeling of my heart being ripped out of my chest. RIP to the GOAT, The Professor, Pratt, Maestro, The Great One, Neil Peart. My hero!
Also worth mentioning- official sales of Rush albums in South America had been low and most of their popularity had been down to unofficial copies of albums and bootlegs.
Me da escalofrios de la emocion, el publico Brasilero se entrega a Rush como a ninguna otra banda del mundo, son un ejemplo de que el Rock Progresivo en Sudamerica es un estilo de vida.
Had the privilege of seeing the Moving Pictures tour at the Omni in Atlanta. Four rows back, center. As a drummer, it was truly like a religious experience when they played this song. So many times on my set of Pearls, trying to match this perfection. Never made it, but damn it was a blast trying. God bless Neil, the greatest drummer of my lifetime, and also one of the finest lyricist. Rest easy brother.
I WAS THERE ALSO, AT THE OLD OMNI IN ATLANTA! I sat right next to stage, where the guys came onstage from the right side! We yelled at them as they passed by, & Alex turned his guitar & reflected a spotlight at us! It was AWESOME! O.M.G.!!! 💪🏼😎👍🏼
Never have I seen a fan base of this magnitude all bounce and go nuts at the same time in sync. Dead fans are hard core but this rio concert blows everything out of the water.
Can you imagine a Crowd reaction exact like this, but adding 20 Thousand people more? It happened in São Paulo, i was there! Jumping and singing every note from YYZ!
I can happily say I was there, in the middle of the crowd. And now I wish this stands as a homage to Neil (and the rest of the Band). People there were not just “singing” YYZ, but exploding in ecstasy as this tune represents much of what Rush stands for Rock and Roll (and for ex-musicians-wannabe like myself). This images speak for themselves as an everlasting homage. RIP my childhood idol. You were one those very few to transcend music itself and to become a living mythological god. You were sort of a silent sheperd for me. Thank you very much indeed. Love from Brazil.
This was the last concert of the Vapor Trails Tour. First time ever in South America and the concerts were in Porto Alegre, São Paulo and Rio. I was in Porto Alegre and there were people from Chile and Argentina as far as I know. About the concerts in Brazil, read what Lifeson and Lee told later: “It’s surprising how in tune they are with everything, all forms of music. They don’t speak a lot of English down there, yet the audience was singing the whole night. And they very easily sung along with songs from Vapor Trails as they did from 2112 or Moving Pictures” - Alex Lifeson in 2003. “YYZ was one of the audience highlights of the show. As soon as we started playing that song, the whole crowd started bobbing up and down in time with it. And they were singing along. What was amazing about the Brazilian crowds, when we played some of our instrumental stuff, they would be singing parts, like they had written parts for it on top of some of the music.” - Geddy Lee in 2003.

That was so awesome. This song drove me to be the best I could way back in the 80's when I 1st heard it.

RIP Neil Peart: virtuoso drummer, lyricist and author.
YYZ: The aviation code for Toronto's, Pearson Airport is YYZ.
Neil heard the Morse Code and jammed with Geddy and they all came up with this!
When the band saw YYZ on their luggage it meant they were coming home-to Canada-to us...
If you hear the opening of the track is the morse code , YYZ
@@DivaRockFaster greetings from YVR
From CLE to YYZ and all in between, we all mourn this loss by listening to Neil's best work. Much love from a fellow Rush fan.
Spent 25 years working close to airport . Pretty sure have seen them coming or going at some point in that time!;
jmmacb03 you just copied the top comments why
That crowd is insane!
Mike Patton look the set of skrillex in lollapalooza chile 2015 thats insane
Nioxsanto Noguera who would watch skrillex when you can watch real music?
Nioxsanto Noguera Most people at skrillex concerts are high as hell. Also the music sucks
AtrHoliday ditto
AtrHoliday one can debate if pulling/pushing a few levers and buttons, can be called music
The greatest concert ever held in a laundromat!
I'm Brazilian, all of us love for RUSH!!!
"Music is a universal language"
- An alien from outer space.
RUSH are the aliens' favorite band.
Seriously though, Math and Music are the only two universals!!!!! Music is much better! Lol
wait until the aliens listen to Cygnus...
Leave it to Brazilian fans to sing an instrumental lol.
The only audience in the world capable of that!
The video says Rio? -_-
This is from the Rush in Rio DVD. Rio, as in Rio de Janeiro, (IE. the second most populous city in Brazil).
Bob Dole Go to Brazil and to any spectator event there. The fans there are unbelievable. This reaction to YYZ totally makes sense to me.
i misunderstood Brazilian people only likes such as Bossa Nova until 10 years ago or so ( i just forgot Sepultura was Brazilian band at that time).
idk much about Brazil but every video of their concert are amazing. Those people love music.
Live album on Spotify of this tour is this but even better audio qual
Nothing like going to a rock concert in South America, especially Brazil. I had the great experience of living in Brazil for three years. I saw show sin Buenos Aires and Sao Paulo and the crowds were always amazing.
I saw Rush twice in America. Everyone kinda just sat there and listened to them.
In RIO? They now how to party to this song!
yeah thats how we do it man... ha ..i saw them in america as well..but im back in brasil and i went to see them agaian...i was there at this concert...was a lot of fun..
Jose Andino amen brother...the UK could learn from this....the clockwork gig was a bit lame audience wise....but Rush were fookin amazing :D
Well I have seen them a few years ago in Birmingham, UK and the crowd was fantastic, but who can compete with the Brazilians?
A lot of it is because of the venue style. Rushed stopped doing general admin and switched to seated which is a lot harder to have fun in
Saw Rush 13 times. While I don't think everyone just "sat there," I can tell you that American crowds changed after the Rush in Rio video dropped. Best live album ever. Best live convert video ever. These are clearly football fans. Go to a football match, you'll see fans going off like this. (Not American football, what the rest of the world calls football and we call soccer).
one of the best crowds ive ever seen
Prashanna Gautam one of? i've never see' something like that before
Acacio Siqueira Me neither! The closest I’ve ever seen was AC/DC live in River Plate, and even the crowd at that show isn’t even on the same level as the crowd was at this show. Too bad I wasn’t even born in 2002.
I saw AC/DC in Paris during the same tour, and for me it was the most disappointing crowd I've ever seen, the show was great, but I was just in the middle of old dudes just standing there like they were watching TV... The opposite with what's recorded at River Plate.
I just think Parisians are dickheads, and paris isn't rock n' roll, South America is not a natural place for this too, but at least people there know how to have fun.
they are all on drugs. The band isreally believing they like the song lol
Medmac ac dc donnington is close !
The beautifully humble part of Rush is they had no idea the Brazil fan base was so huge and so enthusiastic until the Vapor Trails tour.
No other band on the planet was capable of having the fans engage in a "sing along" with an instrumental. AMAZING!
Alex Lifeson is so damn underrated
Konacno neki Srbin u komentarima.... :)
Brayden Keynon ď
Alex Lifeson is only under rated till you listen to Rush...then that's all she wrote. You're like: "God Damn these dudes are the truth...
The whole goddam band was underrated!!!
@BAZ INGA er, i meant they were underrated by the music media and pop culture fascists.
Also, this is my goto song for karaoke
Better than Tequila, that's for sure
HILARIOUS!!!
You must steal the show!
I prefer the main monkey business
There's never been anything like this, and there never will be again.
Most amazing live performance of an instrumental with audience 'sing along' ever !✌️
Had to come straight here after hearing the sad news - RIP Neil Peart
RIP Neil Peart, you'll never be forgotten...
I swear, Alex Lifeson doesn’t get the credit he deserves as a guitar player.
So many great solos from Alex. Truly one of my all-time favorites.
How???
@@pipespeeps5349 People always say that cause the internet never puts him on their top 5 or top 10 lists as opposed to Geddy and (specifically) Neil when it comes to their instruments. But honestly it means nothing - fans of Rush know the deal and that's all that's ever meant anything to Alex. Rush transcends "top lists" and other mundane BS.
EVH once said Alex Lifeson is one of the best, or his favorite. I forgot which.
I mean any guitar player I know adores him.
He may not have that mainstream household name like an EVH or even Carlos Santana
But Rush is very much a musician's band, yknow.
He's easily in my top 3 biggest influences to even play guitar in the first place. I'd put him above Iommi
Jesus it looked like I was tripping almost the way the crowd was jumping up and down. Looked almost like they were just waves rising and falling, they were so synced up. Why can't north american audiences be that rowdy?
they are to fucked up trying to watch the concert thru a cell phone....
yeah we don't appreciate bands as much as they do
Sadly we are losing this kind of atmosphere here in Brazil too ... fucking phones.
@Old man this people arent poor, but this was the first rush show in Brazil, so that is a factor. But brazilian audience was like that on every show, not only on big international ones. Rich or poor.
@Old man it doesn't matter the social status.
Best Crowd ever!! Viva Brazilia from Iraq :
You can tell Geddy and Alex are totally in the groove here and are really vibing off the crowd. I love seeing it
Very few bands consist of two guys who were as good friends as Geddy and Alex.
Honestly, there’s almost nothing in the world like South American rock fans. This show, Alice In Chains at Hollywood Rock, Queen back in the day, Argentina coining the “aguante megadeth” chant. The artist appreciation down there is so explosive and pure.
Lyric: oeoeoeo....
Oeoeoeoeo.....
Oeoeoeoeoeoe.....
Oeoeoeoeoeoe......
Oeoeoeoeoeoeo....
Hahahhhajahahahhahahhajahhshahshshshshhshshshjahahha
Aqui é Brasil!!!!
kkkk
Thanks, man!
What an amazing audience.
I can say with 10000%% certainty .. Brazil SURE LOVES Rush!!! Holy Moly!!! They are jamming.. that crowd is LIT!!
THE BEST CROWD EVER! THE BEST EVENT OF THE WORLD HISTORY!
poucas bandas se dão ao luxo de tocar uma instrumental e receber essa reação do público
love Rush 💖
Brazil=hands down the best fans ever!
argentine crowd are better
Alberto Sampietro siempre ellos los mejores en todo, mierdas!!
Awesome
Alberto Sampietro lol its funny cause only u argentinos say that... except its also true both son los mejores
Alberto Sampietro No, they’re NOT
PROOF of THE Best Band and Fan combo in the Universe!
Rush and Brazil were made for each other!!!
+BasqueNYC
Oh yeah!
That crowd was intense.....
Even the band was amazed
At there energy....it put a extra spring in there step
Greatest music fans on the planet. And they thought they might not even know who they are?! They were selling them short. God bless Brazil. And God bless our Canadians boys
Only band I know that can get an ENTIRE crowd to SING an INSTRUMENTAL song!! Awesome!
the only band where the guitar is the instrument that is the least in the spotlight
Could make a case for Primus
Tool
The Doors (Hey you kids, get off of my lawn!)
the melvins they have two drummers
Giiggle And RHCP
They were a four piece that night.
Wish I was there
One of the top live videos out there
At Le Zénith, Paris, France... less than 1700 during Roll The Bones Tour. It was my very first gig... UNBELIEVABLE! I was 14. Except for England and Germany, Rush never won the hearts of Europeans...
The lyrics in this song are amazing!
BEST DRUMMER IN THE WORLD!!!!!!
Frank Edward AND THE BEST BASSIST IN THE WORLD!!!!!!
AND THE MOST UNDERRATED GUITARIST IN THE WORLD!!!!!!!!
Frank Edward
Definitely top 5 for me. The holy trinity reigns supreme
Drummer yeah, bassist shared best place with Claypool... And lifeson is like a sick underrated guitar-playing uncle
RIP
Hoje o mundo perde, para mim, o melhor baterista da história. Descanse em paz, Neil!!!!!
Vai ser dificik continuar a banda Rush sem o Neil Peart, não haverá um substituto a altura
@@klebermendes9324 Com certeza! Mas eles encerraram as atividades em 2018.
Eu ouvi borburinhos, mas achava que era boato. Entendi
Mano, a morte dele me dói tanto, eu às vezes até esqueço que faz tão pouco. Acho que é porque não vai existir nada igual a ele. O único baterista que pulava o sarrafo na mesma altura, na minha opinião, era o Jonh Bonham que se foi eu tinha 1 ano de idade.
Wow, man this has gotta be one of the finest moments in the history of rock! The crowd, the band, the music and everything's so damn fine.
Not one single F**** cellphone!!!! AMAZING!!!! Just 60,000 people enjoying one of the best banda ever!!!
In my book,,Best Three Man Group Ever!!
Thanks for your Great Post
Best Three Man Group, From Canada
@@robertthomas5736 so would that make Triumph the second best three man group ever?.........from Canada
God please bless the people of Brazil who never fail to love their band. They did the same for Queen concerts. What a wonderful, beautiful way to show and give love. Brazil goes to a concert and act like it's their job, like their life depended on it!!! I love you back Brazil!!!
Essa noite deve ter sido incrível, ver milhares de pessoas cantando uma música instrumental faz eu perceber o quanto Rush é incrível, descanse em paz professor Neil Peart...
Incredible response.. the audience totally in tune with the vibe. It's magic in a sense. I bet the band loved the Brazilian audiences. The Stones get the same
I used to watch this every once in awhile, because it always gives me goose bumps. 60,000 singing along to an instrumental in a country RUSH had never visited prior to that tour. Now, I watch with the same goose bumps, along with tears in my eyes, and the feeling of my heart being ripped out of my chest. RIP to the GOAT, The Professor, Pratt, Maestro, The Great One, Neil Peart. My hero!
Also worth mentioning- official sales of Rush albums in South America had been low and most of their popularity had been down to unofficial copies of albums and bootlegs.
Rush is the most unique band I've ever listened to!
These fans are insane. They even sing along to an instrumental.
Me da escalofrios de la emocion, el publico Brasilero se entrega a Rush como a ninguna otra banda del mundo, son un ejemplo de que el Rock Progresivo en Sudamerica es un estilo de vida.
Had the privilege of seeing the Moving Pictures tour at the Omni in Atlanta. Four rows back, center. As a drummer, it was truly like a religious experience when they played this song. So many times on my set of Pearls, trying to match this perfection. Never made it, but damn it was a blast trying. God bless Neil, the greatest drummer of my lifetime, and also one of the finest lyricist. Rest easy brother.
seen moving pictures , paramount studios in Seattle.
I was at the last concert played in the Omni- Page/Plant,March 3,1995,twelve rows from the stage. Thanks 96 Rock for the tickets!!!
I WAS THERE ALSO, AT THE OLD OMNI IN ATLANTA! I sat right next to stage, where the guys came onstage from the right side! We yelled at them as they passed by, & Alex turned his guitar & reflected a spotlight at us! It was AWESOME! O.M.G.!!! 💪🏼😎👍🏼
Salute to u
The best drummer in the world. Period.
Never have I seen a fan base of this magnitude all bounce and go nuts at the same time in sync. Dead fans are hard core but this rio concert blows everything out of the water.
Damn... perfect band, perfect fans 👍👍
Best crowd ever!
My God. The humanity. What a celebration! The crowd is nuts. Thanks Neil. Thank you Rush!!!
Can you imagine a Crowd reaction exact like this, but adding 20 Thousand people more? It happened in São Paulo, i was there! Jumping and singing every note from YYZ!
At 0:47 my phone started bouncing in my hands! My late dad was at this concert and I heard about for many years!
RIP Dad and RIP neil
RIP
I can happily say I was there, in the middle of the crowd. And now I wish this stands as a homage to Neil (and the rest of the Band). People there were not just “singing” YYZ, but exploding in ecstasy as this tune represents much of what Rush stands for Rock and Roll (and for ex-musicians-wannabe like myself).
This images speak for themselves as an everlasting homage.
RIP my childhood idol. You were one those very few to transcend music itself and to become a living mythological god. You were sort of a silent sheperd for me.
Thank you very much indeed. Love from Brazil.
Maybe their best performance of YYZ in the 21st century....unreal.
Latin Americans are the BEST rock audiences! PERIOD!
I don't think Rush ever experienced a crowd like that 💖🇧🇷👍 and they played much better than usual for them!
This has got to be the best audience ever! they are singing the music!!!!!
sad that they only got to get down there once in their careers. better late than never. craziest crowd i've ever seen.
They've been there more than once
And a sing along to boot
time machine tour, 2010. i was there with my wife!
I’ve been to 2 of their concerts in Brazil, they came back in 2010, though I really wish they’d come for the R40 tour :/
didn't realize they made it back, my bad :)
Singing to an instrumental? Awesome. I’ve never heard anyone say anything negative about Rush. They’re just fucking awesome.
This was the last concert of the Vapor Trails Tour. First time ever in South America and the concerts were in Porto Alegre, São Paulo and Rio.
I was in Porto Alegre and there were people from Chile and Argentina as far as I know.
About the concerts in Brazil, read what Lifeson and Lee told later:
“It’s surprising how in tune they are with everything, all forms of music. They don’t speak a lot of English down there, yet the audience was singing the whole night. And they very easily sung along with songs from Vapor Trails as they did from 2112 or Moving Pictures” - Alex Lifeson in 2003.
“YYZ was one of the audience highlights of the show. As soon as we started playing that song, the whole crowd started bobbing up and down in time with it. And they were singing along. What was amazing about the Brazilian crowds, when we played some of our instrumental stuff, they would be singing parts, like they had written parts for it on top of some of the music.” - Geddy Lee in 2003.
