    Lads,
    ...would have posted elsewhere but as musicians thught ya's would get a kick out of this: how the hell did they do it!??!...is an animated figure playing to the exact detail RUSH's famous instrumental YYZ, note and touch perfect...every single hit the figure does is an exact copy of what Neil Peart did on the original- which is playing along of course. This tune was done in 81 sounds like yesterday!!..the odd time intro is based on Toronto airports morse code signal . Anyway have a look lads its fascinating and the kit is an exact animated replica of Neil Pearts kit of the time :)

    www.bobbysbrane.com click on animation section and YYZ is there, worth looking at takes 7mins to download with broadband ...enjoy :)

    ciao'..Baggio.....

    Here's the link to the animation, just right click and save target as. It's 44mb.

    Trust Baggio to dig something like this up ;) How did you find this?

    Doc :D
    ...well my friend another guy mailed it to me and accused me of putting it together!!1..laughs but wasnt me lads!!..but im still trying to figure how it was done amazing best thing ive seen on the net that i can remember. Now we'll see what Ancient 1 Goran thinks hmm hes a judge and a half like yerself Doc ;)
    Funy thing is this original version was never filmed or video'd etc, I know where he hits and what he hits, but how the heck did they transfer that to animation and with the timing!!/..*scratches head and smiles*...Amazing:)

    ciao' amigos...Baggio...........

    Aye, watched this yesterday. Took the chap two years to do it. I love the way his head moves along with the beat.

    Very cool. Very, very cool though it disturbs me that someone is even more Peart-obsessive than our own beloved Baggio. The bar has been raised :p

    Definately some savage animation anyway.

    That was very cool. I love Rush - particularly YYZ. It's got so much feeling in it and they convey it so well without the vocals. Top notch.

    As Homer would say - Holy Moly!!

    Wow - that is some cool stuff indeed. Did it really take him 2 years to do that? :eek:

    Although, as Doc says, it's hard to imagine that there is a bigger lunatic than Baggio out there! :D

    (On second thought, i'm sure it was you Baggio, you're just winding us up :p )

    Great find, man - this is definitely a keeper :p
