[Fan Videos: Rush Tabcon Videos]
Somebody recently uploaded a bunch of homemade videos from past Rush Tabcons to YouTube. You can check out all of them here. The quality of the videos is so-so, but they're still fun to watch and it's a good way to kill some time on a Saturday afternoon.
What are Rush Tabcons? From their website:
Rush TabCons are musical events that take place yearly around various parts of the United States. Their purpose is to allow musicians and fans of the rock group Rush to perform the band's music in a live setting.
The idea of a Rush TabCon first came about on the "rush-tabs" Mailing List by Sean Jones. The list, consisting of Rush fans that create tablature for the band's music, loved the idea, and the first TabCon took place in Milwaukee, Wisconson in 1997. Seven years later they're still going strong and have been held in the Midwest and on both coasts.
Best of all, you don't have to play like Geddy, Alex or Neil because performers of all skill levels are welcome. And you don't have to sing or play an instrument at all; spectators are welcome too!
