FountainOfSyrinx Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 I think this means the strings will be featured in one set, along with most if not all of CA, and a few others (Losing it, Nobody's Hero, Manhattan Project) which seems like alot of people on here would despise. And then the other set and encore would feature only the non new material and no strings.. at least that's how I see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I, for one, would NOT despise hearing any one of those songs live, as I really love every one. I would just be surprised, especially with Losing It. I think it's quite an assumption to think that they would do ANY song just because they have a string section...just like it would be an assumption to think that they wouldn't do certain songs because they DON'T have a string section. That fact hasn't stopped them from doing songs with strings live in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nappy2112 Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 I know one thing , if Rush played Different Strings, The Garden, Tears and Losing It, I'd fall into a deep coma. Not that those are bad songs... I think they would kill a live show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shail Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Who give a flying shit if there is a string section. I'd rather hear live musicians than triggered strings. A live string section irks people? Wtf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Triggers, Pedals, Keyboars what ever is on stage they are playing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndroidOnTheRun Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 In the end... I would see Rush with a string section. I would see Rush with a full orchestra. I would see Rush with a high school marching band. I would see Rush with an all-ukulele troupe. I would see Rush with Tom Hanks playing the keyboard parts on a toy floor piano like in Big. I would see Rush no matter what, because after all is said and done... IT'S (Yeah I was gonna make it a parody of "Green Eggs and Ham" but I got hamstrung by the scansion.)
