in hindsight, my better R40 setlist

here's what I think may have made a better show. First and foremost, not skipping any albums. Two songs are included from each that can be mixed and matched for an A/B/C alternating setlist:

 

Clockwork Angels/Anarchist

Far Cry/Main Monkey

One Little Victory/How It Is

Test For Echo/Driven

Animate/Between Sun And Moon

RTB/Dreamline

Show Don't Tell/The Pass

Force Ten/Time Stand Still

Big Money/Marathon

Distant Early Warning/Red Sector A

Subdivisions/Analog Kid/Losing It

Tom Sawyer/YYZ

 

*Second half of show break*

 

Spirit/Jacobs Ladder

Hemisphere's Prelude (in normal key up until the vocal part then segway into Cygnus X-1)

Xanadu

2112 overture

Bastille Day/Lakeside Park

Anthem/By-Tor (abbreviated)

What You're Doing

Working Man

 

 

Also, Geddy would only use his Fender Jazz basses and later on the '70s material, his Rickenbacker. No switching to one increasingly ugly bass after another every song.

Forcing Ged to use nothing but the Jazz and the Rick for the older stuff!? :no:

 

I say let the man play whatever he wants (except the f***ing Wal...I'm glad he didn't bring that out). R40 was a total gear porn tour for all three of them with that giant array of Les Pauls and a few nuggets like that 12 string PRS for How It Is, that circus of cool looking and sounding basses, and 2 freaking drum kits! :drool:

well thank goodness they do what they want and not what you want

 

oh yes, I'm clearly the ONLY ONE ever on TRF who was disappointed they skipped over everything between '85 and '91.... :sarcastic:

Only 13 extra songs to rehearse, program, design lighting and create new video for. Easy.

 

Only 8 for the 4 albums skipped. And of those 8, only 4 played on any given night. Big f'in deal :eyeroll:
