Ok, we've seen the Dream sets before, but now I'd like to ask of you Rush Forum dudes what you want to hear but stay true to the Setlist so far!!! As an example: Distant Early Warning The Big Money Mission Subdivisions Body Electric Grand Designs Analog Kid Jacob's Ladder Limelight Where's My Thing? Far Cry ----------------------------------------------INTERMISSION----------------------------------------------------- Caravan. STRINGS APPEAR BU2B Clockwork Angels The Anarchist Carnies The Wreckers Headlong Flight Seven Cities of Gold Wish Them Well The Garden Manhattan Project Red Sector A YYZ Working Man (No Reggae Intro). A FAREWELL TO STRINGS (LOL) Tom Sawyer 2112 (Overture, Temples of Syrinx, Finale) So here's the rules... 25-27 adding one song in each set (limelight, BU2B for me) Plenty of Power Windows, barely any seventies stuff!!! You know, all that Jazz!!! WavesandWindows

WORKING MAN IS A THORN????? Gimme a break........... Make a new poll for the first Setlist beginning and ending seriously, Working man is a thorn? can you believe these guys? Thanks for taking my side as well, Tangy

WORKING MAN IS A THORN????? Gimme a break........... Make a new poll for the first Setlist beginning and ending seriously, Working man is a thorn? Yes its a thorn. Since they brought it back its become a staple at their concerts and this song is far from being a staple. Staples are Limelight, Tom Sawyer, The Spirit of Radio and to some extent YYZ and Freewill. Working Man is a great song but a Far Cry from being a Staple and with that reggae intro it has become a thorn. in their setlist. It need to be removed and replaced with the Thread favorite Xanadu! Right, yes has actually butchered the song by putting in the silly reggae intro... However, if that was removed the 12% of us voting that Working Man needs to stay will actually be increased by about 88% we will all love it!!! All the other choices in is are great but I just want to make my pint WORKING MAN IS FAR FROM A THORN, THE REGGAE INTRO IS REALLY SILLY BUT WORKING MAN IS NOT A THORN!!!!!!! Seriously though,

Love everything about it, especially the return of the Manhattan Project.... Force Ten and Territories could have been replaced by Mission and Mystic Rhythms though and it could have been just a little better

But even that isn't quite enough to save the song. Somebody needs to explain to me that hate The Body Electric seems to get around here? I've always loved the song, I don't get why so many here seem so down on it Dude I really get what you are saying! You're riight, Wish Them Well is a great song despite the fact it was written and performed by the masters! As for the Body Electric, I am upset that people are upset by this being added to the Setlist. On this section of the forum (On The Lighted Stage) someone made a petition to bring back that " Humanoid escapee" so why the anger when Rush does what was asked of them!!!!

I must say either Middletown Dreams or Territories aren't faves of mine!

QUOTE (mazyyz @ Aug 11 2012, 06:40 AM) Sorry they have to dump Wish Them Well and BU2B2, those two suck. Hmmm.... To dropping BU2B2 I say But really, drop Wish Them Well? Wish Them Well is one of the songs I really enjoy off of CA and dropping them would not be cool.... AT ALL!!!! Still, I don't get to see them live as I live in Australia so you know, whatever....

QUOTE (ALifeson85 @ Jun 5 2012, 12:06 PM) Is how vocally demanding it would be for Geddy. First off, there are NO instrumentals on CA...so for Geddy to have to sing for over and hour straight, esp. since some of the new songs DO sound a bit vocally demanding, would KILL his voice. I can MAYBE see them splitting up the entire album, in 2 - 3 song suites throughout the show, with older songs and instrumentals in between...but for them to perform the ENTIRE album in one straight shot...like I sayed - there is no way Geddy would be able to handle that, imo. Still though - I'm LOVING the new album, and I'm sure we will still be hearing LOTS of stuff from CA on the upcoming tour I agree with you completely, HOWEVER, just because those songs were finished and placed on the album is not to say that didn't write some instrumentals with the suite.... I think that it's possible that it will work the way you've said it and is likely to end out that way, but my theory is plausible and has been discussed by many others in other parts of On The Lighted Stage, thanks for reading

should play Armour and Sword (sorry if this is not your spelling, I'm from Western Australia), The Main Monkey Business and Malignant Narcissism..... That would be good for a S&A section, wouldn't it? Please It probably won't happen though

How about we hear Hemispheres' Prelude in the way we heard Cygnus X-1 on the VT tour.... It would also be cool to hear that VT tour of Cygnus X-1 with the spoken intro be the opening song for all sets on the CA tour... who agrees?

QUOTE (sdhonda @ Aug 22 2012, 10:59 PM) Also, WavesandWindows and others: http://www.2112.net/powerwindows/tours/Tours.htm Complete list of setlists from every tour. Thanks very much for that Setlist page, sdhonda.... Anyway, what's this Taking Center Stage thing that default236 Isis talking about, I have the Time Machine DVD but I don't see it in my special features. All it has is outtakes from the set opening videos, Tom Sawyer with the cast of those videos, Need Some Love and Anthem.... If somone could please tell me where Taking Center Stage is I'd be very thankful....

It's become very hard over the last few tours to predict what they'll play. See I didn't think they played it on R30 either.... Anyway, you are right about it being hard to predict the future Setlists for the kingly Anyway, I only wanted to know what people think about a possible comeback for the awesome song, I think it would be awesome to hear it after Neil's Solo as it opens with the drum fill....

I hope that there is a DVD for us Australian fans.... We have never had a show from Rush, EVER!!!!!! I collect all the live DVDs and albums in order to feel like I can see a live show. And I agree that Sam Dunn and Banger Films should do it, I have seen their work on Flight 666 (the Iron Maiden documentary/concert) and it is very well done.... It should also be done very early in the tour to capture the best of Geddy's voice as it wears out quickly, who agrees with me?

1001001 S.O.S 1001001 In Distress 100100 This song rules!

Wish Them Well and The Garden/ Headlong Flight and The Garden All I want is to hear The Garden

QUOTE (D3strukt @ Aug 22 2012, 02:11 AM) It's on R30. Really? All I see from VT is Earthshine and Secret Touch.... I was going off the cd listing other than the unreleased songs like By-Tor Sorry, my mistake...

I have collected all the albums including the live ones and have noticed something... Every album tour (not anniversaries) since the release of VP have featured One Little Victory... The only tours I have noticed not including it are R30 and Time Machine. So, do you guys think it will make a comeback on the CA tour or not....
