All of their performances at the US festival are top notch. I think the blew away everyone else.

Man they still sound so good.

Rik used to run these free workshops the day before a gig when he'd roll through Ottawa. They were always amazing. He was incredibly generous with his knowledge.

I have fond memories of a very early show at a small venue (78ish - Ottawa congress ctr I think) - Regardless of venue size they played in early days,Triumph shows were huge right from day1 - pyro, big lighting, piles of white Marshall 412s, and awsome r+r: - and of course later they became a top tier arena band - Rush and Triumph were #1 and #2 around here back then (maybe still) and not alwys in that order.

Given how old Rik is his vocal and playing have not diminished, great performance!

 

[PSea]

one of my favorite songs of theirs is Suitcase Blues. LOVE that tune. always wanted to learn it.

he has a book out too. just got it. havent started it yet.

His book is fantastic. Really interesting stories of how his hands were tied in Triumph at the end and the downside of being a "celebrity". A good balanced read for anyone who might think being a "rock star" is a ticket to easy money and happiness..

Almost in my backyard and one concert I regret not attending.

Just started the book - good read so far - also follow his appearances on "Rock History Music" YT channel. Would be so cool to get him on the Fractal artists page.

He is a top notch combination of playing, songwriting, singing and performance. The US festival performance is historic. It was like they plugged right into the energy of the crowd and pumped it right back at them. It still makes the hair stand straight up on my neck.
