Did anyone notice this Easter Egg in Far from Home? Half way through the movie they show a concrete Rush Star on the floor and then right after Spiderman falls on it just like Starman. It was like "Man that looks just like the Rush 2112 Star, then Boom Spiderman falls on it just like the Rush Emblem. its very quick but there!

They're done, move on. There's really no other way to say it. They left us a lot of great music to continue to enjoy for years to come. Releasing new material without touring probably isn't gonna benefit them financially since album sales these days are so bad.

 

Are there other bands you really like that are still active? Throw your Rush enthusiasm into them. Sure, they can't take the place of Rush but don't keep hanging on for something new to happen with them. It will only lead to disappointment.

 

Oh I know! I've been listening to Sons of Apollo alot lately and promise of a new Dream Theater album is uplifitng. I enjoyed Roger Water last Solo Album as well as many other progressive venture out there. But there's nothing like listening to New RUSH!

Congrats Duffman! 6 Years is nothing to shake a stick at! Its been 3 years since :rush: last show and it feels like an eternity! Anyway enjoy your RUSH Forumversary!

 

:rush: :rush: :rush:

 

:Alex: :Neil: :geddy:

Am I the only one jonesing for some RUSH right about now? This usually happens about now for me. Its been nearly 3 years from that last fateful show in August of 2015 at the Forum in LA. Where they played my favorite Song Losing It. Now, I understand their desire to stop touring due to aging but what about some new music. Even a compilation of instrumentals with a few new Instruments thrown in would be nice. Anything really. RUSH has been the Soundtrack to my life and it feels life cant continue with out them. I've bought the Anniversary Disk to 2112 and Farewell to Kings but those were just a distraction really. I need some new RUSH! I mean Clockwork Angels was a masterpiece IMHO! Can you Imagine what would come next?

 

:haz: :haz: :rush: :haz: :haz:

I don t think they should ever tour as :rush: without Neil! However Geddy and Alex sure deserve to tour on their own. They both have Solo Albums and a slough of great unplayed RUSH songs to choose from, They can bring along a great drummer like Mike Portnoy to cover the Epic RUSH songs. They can even record a joint Album called L.L.P.

 

(Lee, Lifeson & Portnoy Tour) would be cool! anything to hear Geddy and Alex at it again!!!

I love every Rush album, especially their early ones but I still say clockwork angels is a masterpiece. Only one song of theirs makes say how the hell did they come up with that and that is Tom Sawyer. But clockwork angels makes me say the same thing about the whole album

 

I agree CA is in my top 3. Its Wall to Wall!

Moving Pictures

 

Signals

 

Clockwork Angels

Losing It

 

The dancer slows her frantic pace

In pain and desperation,

Her aching limbs and downcast face

Aglow with perspiration

 

Stiff as wire, her lungs on fire,

With just the briefest pause --

The flooding through her memory,

The echoes of old applause.

 

She limps across the floor

And closes her bedroom door...

 

The writer stare with glassy eyes --

Defies the empty page

His beard is white, his face is lined

And streaked with tears of rage.

 

Thirty years ago, how the words would flow

With passion and precision,

But now his mind is dark and dulled

By sickness and indecision

 

And he stares out the kitchen door

Where the sun will rise no more...

 

Some are born to move the world --

To live their fantasies

But most of us just dream about

The things we'd like to be

 

Sadder still to watch it die

Than never to have known it

For you -- the blind who once could see --

The bell tolls for the...

No Bad Rush Albums but TFE and CoS come close!

No live. A crime along with Cut to the Chase

 

Cut To The Chase is the real shame there.

 

This is Exactly was i was thinking. Two songs that should have made it to their live show. I feel if they were having the longer tours they had towards the end, we would have heard both tracks Live. Who know maybe when they have their reunion tour!

Well Let me take a stab at this!

 

MP VS PeW

 

Tom Sawyer < The Spirit of Radio

Red Barchetta > Freewill

YYZ > Jacobs Ladder

Limelight > Entre Nous

The Camera Eye > Different Strings

Witch Hunt < Natural Science

Vital Signs < Natural Science

 

So Moving Pictures Wins out 4 to 3!

 

So

 

Moving Pictures!

Lifeson, Lee and Palmer would be nice as well.

Regardless, it fun to be back here with hope of seeing 2/3 of the guys again.

I agree with you after seeing the set, I was thinking the same thing. 1 new song woild not be enough. I would have to hear their new stuff to make a more precise setlist.

Oh I think they'll still fill arenas, just like plant/page filled arenas and Roger Waters filled arenas. Cause regardless what they put out. Fans will still expect the same type of show.

The good thing about this is that we'll get to hear some more new Rush-like tunes not to mention songs from their solo albums when they hit the road.

 

Setlist:

 

Limelight

Freewill

Red Barchetta

New Song

My Favorite Headache

Promise

What will they call this collaboration, Brush? As in whom ever is the drummer will have a brush with greatness? I liked to Mike Portnoy take the seat!

 

Lifeson, Lee and Portnoy!

Great work as always. I love Neil's address and phone number. CLASSIC! Kinda sad though. But I feel something on the horizon for the boys. Anyway on the bright side I've reached my desired weight.
