Interesting comment about the 1/2-capo; I use one often when I play acoustic at church. Me and Lerxst! :lol:]]> Opinions and Polls slejhamer https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/lifeson-rules-the-earth/paged/3/#post-302056 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/lifeson-rules-the-earth/paged/3/#post-291323 Fri, 02 May 2008 22:25:15 +0000 Opinions and Polls Scrogdog https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/lifeson-rules-the-earth/paged/3/#post-291323 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/lifeson-rules-the-earth/paged/3/#post-289513 Sun, 20 Apr 2008 15:09:06 +0000

Hmmmmmmmmm. Tempting.

But not as tempting as a Gretsch White Falcon.


A :-) Oh man... I'd love a semi-hollow, and Alex used to shred on an old Gibson semi back in the day. Anyone have a picture??

I'll be going to the July 7th show at beautiful Mohegan Sun Arena here in CT. While these Rush geezers have been beneath the radar with their music for the last 15 years, they can kick the butt of musical acts when it comes to playing live. If you haven't seen these guys live you really should treat yourself, even if you are only a casual fan. You'll be amazed at how tight these three are... I swear you won't hear a bad note or off-key vocal all night.]]> Opinions and Polls The Dali https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/lifeson-rules-the-earth/paged/3/#post-279881 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/lifeson-rules-the-earth/paged/3/#post-279515 Wed, 30 Jan 2008 18:04:52 +0000 More fun for Lifeson fans:

LIFESON HITS THE TILES -

Detroit garage-prog-metal-rockers Tiles released their new CD "Fly Paper" yesterday, featuring our boy Alex on a track called "Sacred & Mundane." The Rush influence is very obvious on their music, but there's more: Terry Brown, who produced many of the classic Rush albums, is their producer, and Hugh Syme, who did some of Rush's artwork and played keys on some albums, also does the Tiles' album art and some keyboard work for them too!
And in response to the curious Rush fans, all the predominant guitars you hear are Alex (electric and acoustic). A bit of trivia for this song is that Hugh Syme played an uncredited keyboard part in the bridge (underneath Alex' celtic acoustic guitar motif). Since it tended to blend in with Chris' keyboard parts we didn't bother to give Hugh (yet another) credit... You can hear tracks on their myspace page:

and download full-length MP3s of a handful of their songs on their web site:

Tiles opened for Dream Theater on their European tour in 1999, I believe.]]> Opinions and Polls slejhamer https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/lifeson-rules-the-earth/paged/3/#post-279515 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/lifeson-rules-the-earth/paged/3/#post-278919 Fri, 25 Jan 2008 21:10:21 +0000
