  1. I know it's not going to happen but the CA songs have to be trimmed down. Everyone knows the sets now and the element of surprise has diminished already. They need to shake each show up and keep people guessing. It's all become predictable now. After the break when The Big Money and Losing It are expected to come into the picture and even possibly Kid Gloves there is the room to alternate more and in the second half La Villa alternating with Camera Eye and Science. They need to shift things around some especially in the first half. Their catalog is enormous and they would be doing themselves a great service to even mix Limelight and In The Mood in the second half too.

     

    Who is everybody??

     

    Us weirdos who follow this shit online??

    Certainly not the 80% who just go to the shows and have no freakin clue about what's going on with setlist A. B. C a or b

    Exactly.....Most people I meet at the shows have no idea about these websites......

    "They need to shift things around some"........um, no!

     

    Where are you in Wisconsin?

    I'm aware of these problems.
    I have HUNDREDS of Rush bootlegs on my PC here, and also do a bit of recording myself, therefore I am COMPLETELY entitled to complain.

    The lack of EX+ boots this tour, this late into the first leg is simply unacceptable.

    I would guess it's because most shows this tour are indoors in circa 17,000 seat hockey/basketball arenas instead of the outdoor shows they have been playing for the past 10 years. Indoor shows of this type recorded by the audience are almost never good, I can't think of a good one off the top of my head anyway.

    Here are a couple:

     

     

  4. Here is how it works.....

     

    The ticket will say 7:30...... Be in your seat by then.

     

    CB, Rush's tour manager, waits for about 90 percent capacity of the seats sold and calls for house lights to go down. This usually ends up being 10-15 minutes after the listed time on your ticket.

     

    If CB gets word of a major delay in getting people to their seats then they will hold it a bit longer but ALWAYS get to your seat by the ticket's advertised time.

    I like reading Neil's travel stories.  I always enjoy when he mentions places I have visited or lived.

    Great link, hermy, thanks for the link.
