Post a live video

So Rush has played 3 shows so far in LA now, with a fourth tonight. Lots of great surprises (the full 7 parts/20 minutes of 2112! Aimee Mann showing up to sing Time Stand Still!), so look up more videos if you’re interested.

The other one I will post here is also from night 1, the first performance of Tom Sawyer. Anika nails the drum fills in the middle and gets a huge cheer.

41 years ago today. I was 22, working in radio but didn’t have to go until evening as I was working the late night shift at an automated station (actually two). Where I’m from there was no cable TV (yet) so when I got up that morning I immediately started taping Live Aid off of one our local AOR stations, WRDU out of Raleigh, NC. This is one of my favorite performances from that day.

A couple covers. The first is audio of Phoebe Bridgers covering Nirvana’s “Lithium” during a recent appearance on BBC Radio 1’s Live Lounge. The second is Julia Jacklin performing “Every Morning” by Sugar Ray for Triple J’s Like A Version.

A young Bono and U2 at the Roskilde Festival in Denmark in 1982. Until their Under A Blood Red Sky album I’d not heard any (or many) of the songs that predated War.
