UPDATE - 7/1@2:39PM: Greg at Tandem Digital received several requests for still images from the videos to use as desktop pics so he threw together 7 of them (at 1200x630 resolution) from the 1st video. You can download them as a zip file at this link (ZIP file - 2M).
Tandem Digital is the company that produces many of the custom concert videos that are seen playing in the background at Rush concerts. Greg at Tandem Digital just alerted me to the fact that they have posted a couple of the videos from the Time Machine Tour to their YouTube Channel. Since there are some major spoilers happening here, I've hidden the details below the fold ...
The first video accompanies Neil Peart's new drum solo. Here's the video description from YouTube:
Our original, custom animation to accompany Neil Peart's drum solo finale on RUSH's 2010 Time Machine tour. The underlying track is "Love For Sale", which was performed by the Buddy Rich Big Band, with Neil on drums. We used individual tracks of all the instruments to create exact timings for all of the performances. It was created using Lightwave.

The second video is played during the opening to 2112. Here's the video description from YouTube:
Our custom 2112 animation for RUSH's 2010 Time Machine tour. We integrated archival photos of the band into images of various nebulae. It was created in After Effects using a particle system.

Greg mentions that higher quality versions will be available on the Tandem Digital website in the near future.
