zappafrank Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Haven't seen much speculation about whether Losing It will be kept. Also, I did my best to avoid spoilers, but the Rush FB itself spoiled Losing It by posting a video of it right out in the open before the NY/NJ shows! Maybe they didn't think they'd find someone to play violin and intended for it to be a Toronto one-off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirkPrattLerxst Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Would be awesome to hear it in person. Doubt it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Made the guest musician announcement at the show an unbelievable moment of confusion-to-delight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HalfwayToGone Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 I'm pretty sure they are not playing Losing It again until possibly the LA show. Well ahead of NY/NJ there were rumors of "something special" and also for the LA show, so that's my guess anyway. FWIW, Jon Dinklage was in the string section for the entire CA tour runs, and lives in the NY metro area (grew up in Morristown, NJ area, I'm pretty sure). So perhaps there's another CA string section violinist in the LA area for that show also--I have no idea, and never really did any digging around for info about any of the string section members. I only learned of Jon Dinklage being in it after his brother appeared in the video screen footage for the RTB rap section, and didn't even think about the possibility they'd use him for Newark and NYC when Ben Mink showed up for Toronto. It was a total surprise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hcm Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 my speculation is they might do it in Las Vegas and I'm pretty sure there are a couple of CA stringers in the LA area, so maybe there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bill1971 Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 If one lives in LA. I hope they do the Irvine CA one as well. It's only an hour or so away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todem Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 (edited) my speculation is they might do it in Las Vegas and I'm pretty sure there are a couple of CA stringers in the LA area, so maybe there. That would be freaking sweet. Praying for that tune in Vegas. Setlist D or E would be a great night (hell any of them but you can only hope for another bucket list tune and Losing It is another I can cross off). This tour has given me a bunch I can cross off. Amazing set list.....best second set/encore in the history of an the "Evening With" format. Edited July 8, 2015 by Todem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J2112YYZ Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 It won't be permanent unless they can get a violinist in every city. I'm guessing tomorrow's show will be set A and then they'll be back to the regular set rotation until maybe the last show where they'll do Losing It again.
