When Rush played this summer, they did Circumstances, which was way, way above what Geddy can sing nowadays. They tuned down so far it really hurt the song. I think VH did the same for a few tunes with Dave on the current tour. Hell, they did in the studio for Dave too.

You're right, Rick. It's a whole step down. I would agree that's the reason why some folks might feel it sounds "flat" or "Lacking energy."
I thought it sounded ok, and I"m with Tabs. Jimmy Page's bass playing is first rate.
