Bummed they may not be able to replicate the Quick Escape solos live. Hopefully they can get close.

I second the thanks for posting all these as well. Was great reading the (as someone else stated) much better than anticipated answers from the guys.

Pretty cool tidbits bout some songs....also, it was kinda heartbreaking to read Stone talk about Shawn Smith.

I thought he implied that they chose effects in the studio that COULD be recreated live.

I think Mike's answer was pretty clear that he actually wanted something he wouldn't be able to repeat live, so the live version and studio version will always intentionally be quite different (see below).

He did the same thing on Nothing As It Seems, he's never used that same sound live as he did in the studio (because of the gnarly old fuzz pedal he used on the recording), but it hasn't harmed the live versions.
Hi there. Quick escape has a very rare (and wonderful) effect on the guitar, on the solo, how do they do that? With any pedal, which one? greetings from Argentina

Stone: What solo ... first or second...? the first solo is me and he had lots of crap on it... harmonizer and octaver plus tons of distortion.... Thats all Josh Evans on effects choice . It might be guitar direct into the board and distortion with preamps .. i do love that line though.. stone

Mike: On Quick escape I was using a bunch of pedals .One for sure was the Electric Mistress flanger that Alex Lifeson turned me on to.I love that pedal. I also asked Josh Evans and Neil Hunt at separate times to move the switches on an old delay while I was playing so I would get a sound that I couldnt repeat live. I wanted it special for the track.

Who cares about the outro solo... it’s the third best solo in this song.
