To me it seems that Ed's guitar is totally out of tune there, it's tuned to low I think, the bass and Dave sounded in right pitch though.

This is really a disaster, Ed should have quit right after the first note he played and quickly changed his guitar, no one would mind really, but this is soo bad there was no point to continue...... :oops:
Was his tech sleeping there?

If we're going on the quote, which is that the song is played at 48k instead of 44.1k basically that means there are 48000 samples a second, instead of 44,100, so, more data is recorded, and more data is played back. if you play a song recorded at 44,100k at 48k, it will play faster and obviously higher pitched because it is playing 48000 samples a second instead of 44,100k. Whether the guitar is out of tune or not, i cant tell because its just noise :lol:

If you hear, he plays the solo correctly, in tune, so it would lead me to believe the backing was played at the wrong pitch or speed. cant they hire a keyboard player?

Hahahaha, you would think they would, but then Eddie would have less to do. At least Geddy Lee can multi-task.

I think it was the guitar tuned slightly off. And I'm sure Ed knew that something was wrong the moment he played the first note.
Could be he just kept on playing just to make a point to his tech, or whatever. I mean, from what I've heard about Ed, he isn't exactly forgiving about this.
I know he has a very odd way of tuning his guitars, and he demands that his techs know about this, and tune them that way.
If it indeed was the guitar that was off, he could easily have gone to the side of the stage, and gotten a different guitar during, say the verse, where his playing isn't all that important.
