email me your cell number to jhill@richeyzink.com and I will give you a song by song personal update dude!!! Just post them here. We will be waiting. :) Well, here's the problem. I have an iPhone 5. so I have battery problems. I'm not going to sit there for 3 hours eating up 4G posting songs. I just posted my email to this board. if you want to take a chance and send me your cell, I won't betray another Rush fan. We're all Rush Geeks here, so you'll just have to trust me. But I'm legit. Swear. Or you can wait to see what someone else posts. eventually you'll find out. I don't mind sending out some texts though Send you my cell? If I had one, I would, but I don't, so I will just have to sit here and wait patiently until a kind soul tells us what is going on in Tulsa. Thank you just the same for the offer! Can't you text to an email?

I will be following @Rush_Roadtrips on twitter. He will be there

Oh to dream....

Hey I resent that!! Your right, but giving your fans what they want would be real nice. Remember, when they cashed it all in on 2112, when it was all or nothing, going out with a bang, doing it they're way, despite when the record company executives wanted (they wanted radio music. A hit), it was the older fan base that bought that record and saved they're careers. It was the over 50's who said "yes" to the birth of the greatest prog-rock band ever. So yea, FREAKIN PLAY SOME AFWTK AND / OR SOME HEMISPHERES. Yeah but it was us then young teens who found them in the 80's composing music similar but so strikingly different than what our peers were trying to coerce us into liking whether it be hair bands or punk. WE Carried them through P/G, PowerWindows, and Hold Your Fire. We sustained the momentum when some of the first responders abandoned ship. We had our tour the last time. You are getting yours this time with an entire set of Moving Pictures and prior to. Enjoy the moment.

Agreed

You need to get out more. Lol. If you want applies, read some of threads. Whatever THAT means... Lol. Damn iphone autocorrect. It was suppose to say "if you want spoilers". There have numerous threads this week about the Tour Book info. Months ago, it was leaked that there will be the replica kit (chromey) and that it would be used for the latter part of the show. Then the tour book info confirmed a blueprint for the show where Signals to present would be first set and MP prior would be the 2nd set. This confirmed the earlier leak about the drum kit.

Oh it's real. Straight from the official tour book.

You need to get out more. Lol. If you want applies, read some of threads. By the look of things, the 2nd set is all MP and prior.

There's a difference between having high standards and being realistic. For some of us, the reality is that these guys are in their sixties, have physical limitations to various degrees, and not be as emotionally involved with being a touring musician as they were 10 or even 5 years ago. I can relate to a degree. I've been involved with baseball since I was 8. For 39 years, I have been a player, manager, & a league official. This season, for the first time in 18 years, I'm not coaching. I just don't have that passion I feel one should possess to be the best one can be. I took on an administrative role on the district level after 17 years as a league official because I just didn't feel the need to it any more. The point is, I couldn't perform those roles to my own expectations any more so I dropped one and transitioned into something else. I still love the game, as much as I did when I was 8. However, the way I love has changed. I want to take time to do other things; take walks with my wife, play with our puppy, focus on my almost adult children as they make this transition. Priorities change.

Totally Assinine comment---Oh wait, what would one expect from an ASS ? Totally Assinine comment---Oh wait, what would one expect from an ASS ? I'm an ass for not having bottom-level standards? Sorry, but w/o having individuals with the highest of standards Rush would have disappeared into obscurity after their debut album. You're a hero.....

Good theory BUT your biggest clue is the tour credits which for the most part, as seen by the tour credits in the last 2 tour books, RUNS IN ORDER AS IT IS LISTED. CA had a few changes but TM ran exactly as listed, Your best bet is to start there... Then if THAT'S the case, then they're walking out and playing Clockwork Angels, and ending with 2112 Looks like the listing in the book is in reverse order of release.... There are plenty of slots unknown. My theory is that 2112 will likely end the 2nd set because there are two video credits listed after 2112 (one for between the 2nd set and encore and the other for after the show). If this is the case, then there are two schools of thought; (A) the encore will consist of songs from the first 3 or 4 albums, most likely in a medley OR (B) the encore will be used to showcase songs from all the decades.

What would constitute a "gem" in your opinion? Cut to the Chase, to pick a newer song. Wouldn't mind hearing Different Strings once. I'd ask for a down tuned something for nothing, but I know the realists would be all over that for vocal reasons. Sing it baritone, its awesome either way. Great poll about which are the most likely omitted songs CMS. I think its dt hitting me with his PC ;), but looking at your poll... the missing songs could very well be tour regulars like LVS or LL. Great tunes, but...LVS is the holy grail, so can't say nada aboot that. Would love to hear the Sphere tho, there's another gem... Sorry, I couldnt get the damn thing to reboot to a normal screen....

Just had a WILD thought. IF 2112 ends the 2nd set AND The set stays chronological THEN The encore has to open with; (A) something else from 2112 (PTB?) OR (B) something from COS So, if it is COS, WHAT IF the 2nd set opens, to start a medley, with Alex strumming the opening to FOL? After that they can break into other songs from COS, FBN, and RUSH ending with In The Mood. If this happens, I think we have found the crown jewel of gems so many seek.....

Why not? If they're thinking chronological then ITM makes perfect sense since it was their closing song for many years. The answer to that ? Is if you think 2112 closed the 2nd set or is the encore Betcha 16 cents that 2112 closes the 2nd set ;) Those two video credits at after 2112 make me nervous....

I noticed the same thing. That's critical to my position. I remember sitting up first row mezzanine at the old Richfield Colosieum on Alex's side for HYF and it was a great view! I'm hoping this 114 presents the same.

I got my section 114 seats cheap compared to what they are listing for now. They are seats 19 & 20 so they are the furtherst from side stage in that row. Hope line off sight is good

I haven't sat there but I have section 114 row 2 seats so I hope they're good!

Cool! Thanks for the correction. Being from NJ, I was offended. Lol!

It's a very large sample size. It's disappointing due to the multitude of repeats but I'll still enjoy it. Especially if it's the full Cygnus, full Jacobs and full Prelude, with no xanaconductor or far cry break in nonsense. Cut into RTB or OLV instead. The classics are rare at a Rush show, why ruin the few played with these cut outs from classic to the modern so so tunes Don't recall anyone saying they're miserable, for those passing judgement Snaked, just fans gaining false expectation based on what the band has said to expect from the list. It's not the bands fault if your expectations or your interpretations were not realistic. This is actually more than I could expect and the full list isn't out yet. Not every fan saw S&A or TM.

Where do you get that there are plenty of tickets in NJ? Where are you numbers coming from? I'm calling BS. I'd like to see that report. The three most inexpensive price tiers are sold out.
