I understand the point of the fans asking for Camera Eye and not being heard, except with Moving Pictures album live.
But this is their product Fresh off the Press. We are not asking them to go back and open closed doors which we all know they are reluctant to do. They like to move forward.
This album is f*king fantastic, and deserves to be played front to back, and live. And it is Rush Now, not then !
BTW - I think the Moving Pictures album was a loophole so they could play what the fans were asking for. It's hard for Geddy to say in an interview "there's no f*king way we are going to play that song", and then later do it. Too much pride. But to say "well it was on the album so we had to play it". Then when they did, they enjoyed more than they ever thought.
Speaking of loopholes, on Headlong flight, Neil writes "I wish that I could live it all again", which I think at this point is him speaking, but so not to be hypocritical of past statements or songs, deflects it to Freddie. It is said way too often and there is too much focus on it to be just a tip of the hat to a long lost friend.
All my opinions of course, in the politics that is Rush
Back to the petition, this is just to get the option on the petition, and see how popular the idea is.
It is what it is
