Imbalance in the R40 alternating set lists
kevycanavan replied to zappafrank's topic in R40 Tour Forum
God, had I gotten Dreamline instead of Manhattan Project on CA tour... oh yeah, cheated big time. I certainly felt hard done by when I got dreamline instead of Manhattan, but I was equally releaved I got Middletown and not the dreaded limelight. -
No other videos that I know of. This guy out up,a few good vids on the last tour, and I subscribed to his channel.
-
Nobody seems to be more keen to write the band's obituary than their fans. I've been reading this "this is the end" stuff since time machine.
-
They've been doing that all tour. Flying in violinists to keep losing it in shape, but they didn't actually play it until the DVD night. They're obviously planning on giving it another airing out before the tour ends.
-
My door Into Rush was the Rio DVD about ten years ago. It took a few years for them to totally grow on me, but back then, when I guess you would have to have called me a casual fan, I was markedly more impressed by leave that thing alone, and red sector A, than anything else on that DVD. I love Tom Sawyer on Rio, but because of the audience energy on it. Amazing.

R40 wins for the absence of PRS guitars alone. Alex's sound back then was so weak and processed.

Should the extra song from [album] be permanently dropped?
kevycanavan replied to rtrushfan's topic in R40 Tour Forum
Yeah, but I'd drop headlong, and keep clockwork Angels. Then in the extra slot something like a Prime Mover, Open Secrets, Lock and Key rotator, or even permanently keeping Natural Science. -
Yeah the production and sound on clockwork Angels tour was the worst since Rio. Which two sets will they play those nights I wonder
-
Here's my alternative r40 set Carnies Clockwork Angels Working them Angels Animate Leave that Thing Alone (with drum solo) Roll the Bones Bravado Show don't Tell Open Secrets Prime Mover (or) Turn the Page Drum solo (The Percussor) Emotion Detector --- Distant Early Warning (or) Red Sector A* Countdown Analog Kid (or) Witch Hunt Red Barchetta Natural Science (or) The Camera Eye Jacob's Ladder Hemispheres Prelude LA Villa Strangiato Xanadu Closer to the Heart 2112 Encore 1 ---------- Lakeside Park Anthem Encore 2 ---------- Tom Sawyer YYZ Spirit of Radio Not so much with the arbitrary rules for me
-
they did play in the cage, carpet crawlers, Los endos and firth of fifth last tour :) Los Endos was about the only deep cut there, but not even really. In the cage had always been a live favourite. Even firth of fifth was only the solo section, and they f***ed it up in Rome. Them playing The Lamia, Me and Sarah Jane or Get 'em Out by Friday? More chance of getting a blowjob from the pope.
-
I just wish Genesis were as adventurous. They practically ignore anything that isn't a hit in their sets.
-
Ya, There's nothing like a real Taurus pedal. Geddy's been sampling them since the early '90's. Sample this, Sample that. Sampled instruments kill the quality of the music. Those real old synths don't travel well though. They're prone to tuning problems.
-
You're also assuming that "all" the loyal fans want the 70's stuff Like I say, I'm perfectly happy with the songs they're doing. Just having a bit of craic, as we say in Ireland.
-
And obviously the band think power windows is one of their best albums, considering how much of it they've played over the last couple of tours - and so do I.
-
Well they'd be wrong, because working man gets dragged out all the time, and the brilliant emotion detector is still a live virgin. I prefer my rush with Peart writing the lyrics and drum parts.
-
Anyway - my set is better than the real one :P
-
They're still playing those "hits" - if I had it my way they would give Tom Sawyer a bit of a rest for a couple of tours - but I'd rather have them there, in my fantasy setlist in my own head, than songs from the first album, which Peart wasn't even on. Feel free to copy and paste the set, exactly as it is for your own fantasy set. Fifteen minutes to Wapner.
-
My setlist does go backwards, in the main show. It's not until the second encore that I changed it up. Dunno where the poster got my 13 rotators from. I only count four.

The rush police

I'm perfectly happy with the current set the band have picked. I was just having a bit of fun, putting together my own show. If I've stepped outside of the "rules", better call Saul, and sue me.
