Octavarium or Finally Free. Actually, I'd love to see them do a take on the entire Metropolis suite by Dream Theater

Sorry to hear about your situation mate. I hope things get better for you and her. You have my sympathy.

I choose Subdivisons. I would have put in either Analog or Chemistry as an opener instead. I don't even agree with it being a great concert opener.
-
This was damn near impossible. I ended up voting for Natural Science, with Between the Wheels, Countdown, Cygnus, Everyday Glory, La Villa, The Garden and Vital Signs all very close contenders

Rush & Love
in Rush
Halo Effect. I just find that it's the most appealing of their love themed songs, and feels the most relevant in this day and age-

Thank your stars you're not that way
Turn your back and walk away
Don't even pause to ask them why
Just turn around and say goodbye
Nicely done. Love the context and meaning of that song. Pretty much how I feel every time I watch a media pundit ranting and raving.... :)
It comes in handy when you're still at high school. Everyone says really stupid things "Guitar Hero's better than a real guitar", "Who's Rush/Queen/Black Sabbath, etc." and it almost makes them need to put their hand over my fist to save their sorry hides, but then I think of these guys and I say "You know what, I feel sorry for you, I'm glad I'm not like you, goodbye". No need to provoke things further. Just turn your back and walk away!

God, I totally hated Clockwork Angels. Worst thing of theirs ever. I hope they don't continue along this path for their next album if there is one, because this is the worst possible thing for them to leave on!

I don't need your civil war
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor
Your power hungry selling soldiers in a human grocery store (ain't that fresh?)
And I don't need your civil war
What's so civil about war anyway?

Battlescar
in Rush
I'd say Rush contributed their abilities that it seems like a true collaboration. I will however say that Geddy's voice feels like Caress of Steel and Permanent Waves to me. I think it was around the time they were recording Permanent Waves, but when Geddy's singing his verse his voice really reminds me of Caress of Steel! -
Thanks everyone! Had a great day yesterday and came home with a new effects pedal (the awesome Line 6 FBV Express) which I can't wait to play with my new black PRS Tremonti SE!

Actually, I'd kinda like to hear some instrumental versions of songs originally with lyrics, like Xanadu. Being in a musical at my school, I've found that there's a lot more to songs beneath the vocal track, and with Rush, it'd be very interesting to hear what is more blocked by Ged's vocal. I've probably had a poor choice of words but hopefully you understand what I mean

Test For Echo. Such a great setlist, and then all of 2112 to close Act 1. Also, they were sounding bloody good, and it was their first 2 act tour.

Still, if I ever need anything else, you'll be the first on my list, if not, you'd be second only to Sheldon

Thanks mate, but I think the FBV2 will be all I need, even with an impromptu solo section. I use my metal effect as my distorted effect tone and insane is my standard, I use crunch for a bit of a lighter sound with VERY Light distortion and clean for everything else

4) Circumstances (live from R30 dvd...GREAT live version)
Sorry mate, but I'm pretty sure you mean the Snakes and Arrows Live DVD. It wasn't part of R30.
As for my mix:
2112: Grand Finale
Hemispheres: Prelude and Armageddon (you can move these around to anywhere you want if you don't want them next to each other)
In The End
Spirit of Radio
Xanadu (instrumental section)
Cut to the Chase
Animate
YYZ
La Villa Strangiato
Headlong Flight
Bacchus Plateu
Superconductor (yeah right) Just kidding, give me Available Light
Crossroads (from the RnRHoF)
The Garden
The WavesandWindows Mix . . . I'm curious about the "instrumental only" Xanadu? Everything up to a certain point in the song? And . . . "Crossroads"? I'm digging the selection, though! Thanks.
He had me until I saw "Cut to the Chase." But then I saw "Bacchus Plateau" a little farther down and he redeemed himself. "Superconductor" raised an eyebrow but then I saw "Available Light" followed up by "Crossroads" and I just figured he had to meet some sort of quota for crap lol...
I once tried to record "Available Light" on a mixtape, but when I played it back imagine my surprise when instead of being subjected to "Available Light" I actually heard the recorded voice of Satan himself on the tape telling me to stab myself in the taint!
The silver lining however was that being audibly commanded by Satan himself STILL wasn't as horrific as listening to "Available Light."
Well, I like the instrumental section, and that's the bit that I'd be able to play with my band, since we wouldn't be able to do the whole song, and it's a powerhouse of an intro. Crossroads is there for the guest performers, since it was pretty cool, not a fan of the song as a whole, but loved the whole thing with Tom Morello and John Fogerty. What's wrong with Cut to the Chase, it's one of my favourite songs on Counterparts. Available Light I am learning to play live, and it's a pretty deep song to me, it's really meaningful.

Well mate, I respect your opinion, but I can honestly say that my opinions are quite to the contrary. I think this will age quite well, and for me it's only gotten better with time. I don't think Rush or CoS are masterpieces, but I respect anyone who may choose either as their favourites

CA does have a very special place in my heart though, it got me hooked on Rush, it was the first studio album i was introduced to (only 16 as of next Monday) and quite frankly BU2B and Caravan were the first songs I was drawn to on Time Machine, which was the first Rush I ever bought
-
Yeah, fair enough.
5 songs you've never heard live that you'd like on the next tour
