What songs do you appreciate more because of this tour?


Xanadu

Recommended Posts

More? None really. Heard so much of CA on the last tour. I think Geddy sang them better last tour than on this one, and the other songs they've done I've already liked....VT's stuff...my opinion hasn't changed for the better.

Damn beat me to it... :LOL: ^^^ This

 

Edit: I should mention I am not so sure about the singing of the CA songs. Seemed like a struggle then and now to me anyway...

 

To me it sounds like he's struggling more on the CA songs, but I could be misremembering the CA tour since I can't watch the CA Blu-ray due to seizure-inducing cuts.

Cygnus x-1....because it's instrumental and we don't have to deal with the screaming hysterics of the lyrics.

Much better as an instrumental, I think.

 

Really? Wow.

Has anyone gained a greater appreciation for Xanadu?

Loved Xanadu before but even more now. So much footwork going on

Yep...amazing to watch.

 

It's like being on another planet...in a good way, I mean.

I think Geddy sang everything better on this tour than on the CA tour, including the CA songs. A lot better.

 

I think he's singing the older stuff better than the CA stuff. At least when I heard a yodel, that's when it would come. ;)

He struggled on them on the CA DVD that much I do know. As far as the tour in it's entirety I haven't a clue. I have only watched the DVD twice myself for the reason you mention...

I saw 5 shows last tour and at the ones I saw, he sang the CA pretty well, but the rest of the stuff kinda sucked.

Allow me to rephrase that -

 

Cygnus X1 .. because even with the best aspect removed, it is still a highlight of the show

:ebert:

 

He definitely appreciated me more after he heard the guy sitting right behind us mention how much he paid for his ticket. :o

Did you get the deal of a lifetime or what, DS? ;)

Definitely Roll The Bones. I didn't like it before this tour.

 

trailer park boys sold you didn't it?

 

I loved how Julian still had his drink. Peter Dinklage was pretty awesome, too.

 

Julian ALWAYS has his drink. He was even holding it when he was a samsquanch and they were beating the crap out of him.

Really? Wow.

Yeah. The vocals and storyline never did it for me, to be honest. But the music is amazing!

I'm just surprised because it's like second favorite song ever from them after Xanadu. I think it's perfect. :)

Well I was lucky to get front row in front of Alex this tour(first time closer than 10 rows), I have been a Geddy and bass fan since the beginning of time, but man seeing Alex play right in front of me really opened my eyes to the the amazing talent, more than ever, wow watching the fingers fly amazing, and also had a good view of Neil, wow. Upped my appreciation of all their talent one thousand fold.

 

Song wise

Camera Eye

Liked Cygnus without the lyrics(and I am a big lyric fan)

2112, I know I know they play this live alot, but being so close was amazing to watch live

Losing It of course, it was already a favorite but so happy I got to see it live it had to make the list.

Many of the other songs I already loved the studio version and was happy to see live or have already seen live and enjoyed.
