Alex Lifeson: tells a poop joke Neil Pert: Anyway, here's a song about the historic impact of nuclear bombs
-
His impression of a "drunk guy" sounds exactly like Ace Frehley...lol
-
Alex needs to be hired to do some cartoon voicing.
-
Listening to Alex Lifeson puts me in a better mood. I wish I had a friend like him.
-
God I miss Rush concerts.
-
he's hilarious, while being one of the best guitarists ever.
-
Best quote ever about Alex from Max Mobley at Premier Guitar: Where Steve Vai may make us say “I wish I could do that,” Alex Lifeson makes us say, “I wish I’d thought of that.” This of course refers to his guitar playing ;)
-
From years of touring with Kiss, he can do all four members' voices inflection perfect, and far funnier than the originals. If Kiss ever does an animated history, this is their man.
-
Dad jokes from Rush, now my day is complete.
-
Boy, I am going to miss this band. 😞
-
Security was being very harsh with people who were taking videos. I'm lucky I snuck this one in.
-
This wasn't a planned joke. This was because Ged's keyboards stopped working. You must be thinking of another tour.
-
Canadian Treasure right there folks, Rush, total beauties!
-
man...there's a lot of bitterness in this comment section..."stick to making music...bahhhhh"...sounds like a plan...alex can stick to making music while you stick to pushing paper and sitting in traffic for a living like a shmuck...at least he made an effort for fucksake...there are plenty of band members who would've done nothing but stand around, shuffling their feet while the audience grew restless
-
>that joke > immediately proceeds to play a song about the nuclear bomb and its global consequences Only Rush
-
Such a hilarious comedian that also happens to be one of the best guitar players ever...
-
He’s just hilarious, you can tell he’s the mischief maker in that band. A true gem of a person, a remarkable guitarist and a really funny guy too. God bless Alex Lifeson!
-
Then they played The Manhattan Project...
-
That's why Alex and Geddy have been mates for 50 years. We all need someone like Alex in our lives. I imagine that is why Mr Peart, RIP , stuck with them.

He told the Canadian version of that joke. He used the word "poop", in lieu of the dirtier word. I defy anyone to try and hate the band Rush. Legends.
