Blue J Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Even though Xanadu is my favorite Rush song, everyone that's hoping for it is hoping too high. I would love to hear Jacob's Ladder. I won't say that Xanadu is unrealistic, necessarily, but I agree completely about Jacob's Ladder! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LedRush Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Fountain of Lamneth. Maybe then I can finally know what Geddy yells in Didacts and Narpets. II. Didacts and NarpetsStay! Go!Work! No!Learn! Live!Earn! Give!Stay or fight? What's right?Listen!  The "Stay or fight?" and "What's right?" lines I've seen in some online lyrics, and I've also seen people say other things. I know that when Neil was asked about them a long time ago, he basically said he didn't remember. What you've written seems most plausible to me, but no matter how hard I try and I don't hear those words in the song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeyPresto Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 They will unlikely be played however my vote would be for Bastille Day, followed by Beneath, Between and Behind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmotionDetector Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 CUT TO THE CHASE Unlike other great songs they should play, this one does not carry the excuse of "Geddy can't sing it anymore". It is a kick-ass song, it sounds like a "live" song...and I still cannot believe it has never been played live. Plus, I've seen it pop up a lot on many people's short lists of songs they would like to see...it simply makes too much sense. Please Boys...make it happen on the next tour! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmotionDetector Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Even though Xanadu is my favorite Rush song, everyone that's hoping for it is hoping too high. ...Why?I just think that it's too far out of Geddy's vocal range. I was listening to a version of it on a Roll The Bones bootleg and it sounded like he was straining. I don't think so personally. They played it on R30...and it sounded fantastic from what I remember! :haz: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HemiBeers Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 I was listening to the survey of of the song picks they haven't played and still wonder why Cut to the Chase has never been played. Seems like a good high energy concert song. I see it's ranked fairly high right now. I wonder if the reason they've never played it was because the solo is a beast. I'm wondering if Al could still handle it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always thought it sounded like a kick butt live song. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Empty Mindless Spectre Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 Definitely The Necromancer, but since Geddy has already shot that down like a duck in October, I'll go with By-Tor as my fallback - in it's entirety this time around though.
