- BACKSTAGE SECRETS - RUSH Snakes & Arrows Tour
57 minute High Definition documentary from the HD canadian satellite channel 'RUSH HD'. I always thought it would be cool to see a Rush program on a channel called "Rush HD" and it finally happened !
Be sure to watch in "High Quality" if your internet connection can handle the stream. This is a direct digital transfer, uploaded to RUclips in HQ resolution and sound.
The program takes you behind the scenes with Brad Madix, Brent Carpenter, and Howard Ungerleider showing you all the technical aspects of putting Rush on stage in a venue, night after night. You will be AMAZED at how much work goes into it, and how much pride & care. You'll learn about stage assembly, rigging lights, cables, mixing consoles, speakers, setting the sound, the roadie lifestyle, and the inside of the tour busses. The guys are amazingly candid and fun, allowing the camera crew to chase them all day long. They obviously love what they do.
"in 5....4....3....2....1....and roll !!"

I dream to see Rush live every day. They are musical gods.
I hope you saw them. I was born in 1994. I was deployed every chance I got to see them. I will never forgive that.
As someone who has done local stagehand work for many bands, I can say that it is hard work and it is eye opening to see how a concert comes to life. I've worked for 21 Pilots, Journey, Bastille, and many others. And I can say listening to them backstage, it is really cool.
Finally someone puts on a video of what it's really all about . I work in the biz as well and Big thanks to Kevin for showing alot of people out there it isn't like all the 'old days' stories they've heard about drugs, partying all night long, women all over the place.
This documentary is awesome. I want to say thank you so much for putting this online!
Thank you for the Tech Documentary, It shows that roadies work very hard with the let's get the job done attitude.
Thank u for this documentary! Im a 64 year old Rush fan and seen them 15 times all in the Dallas area. Just by looking and checking out all the equipment and roadies I had no idea it took this much work! I wasn't even close! Thanks to these guys and all roadies from bands all over!
I spent some years in the service. Watching this reminds me of certain things we did on ships. The amount of planning, organising and work involved in a crunch amount of time. And then disassemble for the next show. It's pretty amazing to watch this
A great behind the scenes look at what it takes to put on a show.
As a stage crew member and forklift operator for 3 years for Peter Gabriel Vince gill Luther vandross. lollapalooza and Garth brooks and George strait. It is so cool to finally see my favorite band in the world do this. It is grueling work 16 -18 Hours a day. My longest stage setup was Garth which lasted 3 weeks from setup to tear down. Hats off to these guys!! I sure miss seeing Rush live though. I've seen them 26 times from California to Madison square garden in NY on my birthday. Many thanks to this incredible band for the music magic and incredible memories.
DREAM JOB! I SURE DO MISS LOOKING FOR RUSH CONCERTS EVERY YEAR AND GOING TO THEM WHEN THEY ARE NEAR. I SURE DO MISS THE BAND BECAUSE THEY WERE ABSOLUTELY THE BEST! GETTY AND ALEX, IF YOU ARE EVER READING THIS MESSAGE, I PERSONALLY WANTED TO THANK YOU FOR OVER 50 YEARS OF GREAT MUSIC, GREAT CONCERTS AND GREAT TIMES! YOU WERE A HELL OF A GREAT BAND THAT LEFT THE STAGE ON TOP OF THEIR GAME. YOUR BAND WAS ABSOLUTELY THE BEST! THANK YOU!
When I saw RUSH during the S&A tour in Moline IL. the F.O.H. sound was amazing!! Probably the best I have ever heard them, and I have seen them over 20 times. Their live show is always incredible, but this one was the best as far as sound goes. Kudos to the entire crew, without you the show does not go on.
If you have never seen RUSH, WTH is wrong with you?? Even is you don't like the music you will walk away amazed. It's not a show it's an experience. I hope to catch another show soon!!
RUSH allways did & allways will give what the fans what they want. A great show. And im proud to say ive saw Rush in concert 24 times. And hopefully will get to see them another 24 times ! Rush Rules !!!!!
Wow. What a wonderful pain in the ass! Thanks to the crews that always made this a possibility. I'm hopeful that you were rewarded in the ways you deserved, in the end...
Great documentary!!
yes! my band uses qsc amps for our p.a. good to know the pros do too.
Awesome video great to see how the roadies do all the work many fans dont appreciate BTW the guy at 6:05 cant stop touching himself ;D
what a great side you dont often see
Awesome upload! Thanks!!!!!
I knew a guy who worked for Rush.He said the 3 guys were class acts and this guy got many bonuses From the band.
Its a great job. Even being a local stage/audio technician Ive seen Rush 20 times lol.
Really liked this video! All the best!!
+Carl Lindquist If you get the DVDs it's a lot longer.
sgtpepper1138 Cool stuff! Rush rocks!! :) All the best! Feel free to check out my videos as well! Have a good weekend! :)
@TitaniumByFire Venue of that size needs alot of speakers. Alot of speakers need alot of amplifiers. Alot of amplifiers need alot of equalizers, crossovers, modules. Alot of all that needs alot of cables. And everything needs to be controlled, rigged, and generally: plugged in.
At 1:18 is the J.L.C. in london ontario. I think. I went to that show too! SWEET!
@TitaniumByFire this is not just three guys playing rock and roll
WOW! Just..., WOW!!!
You have NO idea how complex their setup is. This isn't a hometown rock band. Each of the members have their work cut out for them on nearly every song, they all have samples to trigger, Geddy alone plays Bass, Keyboards, foot keyboards (Moog Taurus type pedals), triggers samples AND sings. Each of those items has to be wired in. Plus, RUSH isn't known for some of the best sound in the business for nothing. A few amps will not cut it in a stadium.
DREAM LIFE 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Wow a lot of coffee goes into setting up a Rush stage😀
Why must every documentary, whether it be about rock music, submarines, knitting, weasel sexing, have this generic inane rock dirge in the background?
Because..... just because
Re: rock music in bkground
I sooo do not envy them!
Arena riggers don't drop chains down, they pull them up
rush hd? ooh
When they are waiting for points, it means where they need to hang the lights and PA system and what not.
160,000 Watts = 214.6 Horsepower
Rush 2007
Recorded at 16/10/2007+17/10/2007
01:07 Did he said Neil Peert???? WT.... Isn't it Peart :P
What happens if one of those semis crashes and equipment is ruined? Is there backup?
Seems there should be three of everything like in an airplane.
8,000 people @ $50 per head - BIG BUCKS!
Looks a lot of guys looking at this have been involved in this aspect of the business. Does anyone have an idea what it costs to put on this kind of production every night?
I'm sure these guys (crew) don't work for peanuts, why would they? The responsibilities of keeping things on schedule, moving, engineering, etc. look to be rather daunting.
Snakes & Arrows.....
I've heard the 40 millions albums sold for about 10 years now. Is there an up date to those numbers?
With downloads and other reissued music and vinyl it's probably over 50 million now.
@SchecterGuitar689 It is pronounced, 'Pea-ert', but most people say 'Pert'.
🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
@SchecterGuitar689 ...that is how it's pronounced ....
background song at 4:16????
Really Kevin, and what are your qualifications that you can make that judgement? Or is it just jealousy?
wednesday :))
anyone know the name of the song that starts at 0:06? Big rush fan but I think I've never heard that one!
TooL
Amin Sameti it's not a RUSH song.
Selling out stadiums? Mmmhhh.
This is not HD, 360p?
2009 lol
Christ almighty...the logistics!
Caralho. muito foda
Is Steve Carell narrating this?
No offense seriously but i think you're exaggerating, i doubt ANY rush concert would sound awful
its becouse he got permission
Sure thing buddy...
Keep trolling :)
Why not use Rush’s music in the background. I’m already over this. Ugh!
Agree. As a life long Rush fan, I bailed out at 7 minutes. Couldn't stand it.
If you go from their first album it's just over 30 years.
The guy doing the narrating probably read a script, and really about the music?
If it pisses you off so much, then why did you even bother watching.
CHILL OUT
Do the musicians appreciate what these guys go through every day? I would imagine most good players do but do people like Madonna have a clue?
trolling?
I gave up fishing in high school.
Geddy Lee has totally lost his great voice it makes me sad to think i grew up with Rush and to hear his vocals are fading fast.
i mean, it’s been 40+ years... i’d hardly call that “fast.”
Joe wolfy007 I think your ears are fading GEDs vocal is as strong as its ever been 😎
this background kid-rock garbage is headache inducing
Yep, made it unwatchable.
This guy is a clown. I went to see Rush a few weeks back and the sound was awful.
I've seen them 3 times and they were the best sounding shows I have ever seen. You probably just got unlucky.
