    Set I:

    Cut to the Chase

    Available Light

  2. Being a Keyboardist, this was the first album I ever purchased by Rush because of Subdivisions, and the Love just grew and grew. like most Rush fans I started looking backwards, buying Moving Pictures, Permanent Waves and by the time I got to Hemispheres I was a full fledged RUSH Fan. Hemispheres just blew me away! Anyway I saw Rush in concert for the 1st time during the Signals tour and loved every moment, Specially Countdown! However, I and was very disappointed they didn't play Losing It which would become my favorite Rush Song of all time! Time went by,  then Grace Under Pressure came out and I can say I pretty much learned every song off that album which had keyboards the rest is history. I'm very happy I finally Got to see Losing It played live at least in Video. God I miss these guys! 

  3. A tour with new music and they can even play stuff from their solo albums! May look like this:

     

    Set I:

    50th Anniversary Medley

    Freewill

    Limelight,

    New Song,

    New Song #2,

    Geddy Lee Bass solo,

    My Favorite Headache,

    Promise

    The trees

    Xanadu

    2112 Entirety

     

    Set II:

     

    The Camera Eye

    Natural Science

    BY Tor, the Necromancer and the Snowdog (medley)

    Cygnus X1/

    Hemispheres (Prelude)

    Alex Liefson acoustic solo

    Closer to the hear

    Red Barchetta

    Tom Sawyer

    the Spirit of Radio

     

    Encore:

    YYZ

    La Villa Stangiatto

    Working Man

     

     

     

     

  4. Presto. It has more good songs and nothing quite as bad as Heresy.

    I don't know I think Superconductor and Scars are worse than that.

     

    Scars in particular is bad but not as awful as Heresy for me.

    Scars makes me think that they were smoking something really bad that week in the studio. :smoke:

     

    Not Neil Pat. Are you serious? Neil's drumming is fuckking incredible on that song. "Presto" album destroys "Roll The Bones." "Face Up" Ass down Pat!

     

    I always thought the drums on Scars sounded programmed, but never looked into it. Neil at his most atomically metronomic!

     

    yeah that just shows how good Neil is ! :Neil:

  5. It's close. I actually quite enjoy both albums. I'd give the edge to Roll the Bones for a more consistent showing.

     

    By track:

     

    Presto (GPA 2.25)

    Show Don't Tell: B-

    Chain Lightning: B

    The Pass: A

    War Paint: F

    Scars: D

    Presto: C-

    Superconductor: B-

    Anagram: B

    Red Tide: C+

    Hand Over Fist: C

    Available Light: C+

     

    Roll the Bones (GPA 2.51)

    Dreamline: B+

    Bravado: A-

    Roll the Bones: B+

    Face Up: D

    Where's My Thing: C+

    The Big Wheel: B-

    Heresy: B+

    Ghost of a Chance: B-

    Neurotica: C-

    You Bet Your Life: D+

     

    I don't know? I couldn't bring these grades home to Mom! So they are both "C" to "C-" albums. Not good!

  6. Roll the Bones;

     

    Dreamline > Show Don't Tell

    Bravado > Chain lighting

    Roll the Bones < The Pass

    Face Up < War Paint

    Where's my thing? > Scars

    The Big Wheel < Superconductor

    Heresey > Anagram (for Mongo)

    Ghost of a Chance > Red Tide

    Neurotica > Hand over First

    You bet your Life < Available Light

     

    So Roll the Bones wins out 6 to 4

     

    And that's the way I see it!

    I don't disagree with that breakdown, but I still prefer Presto as an album...which strikes me as weird.

     

    I think it may be the Sound/ Mixing of the Album. I think Presto Sounds better.... I think? :scared:

  9. I'm telling you guys its there. it very subtle and happens very quickly but it's there. First I saw half the circle/ star carved into the cement floor. and i started thinking." man that looks like the 2112 star". then boom Spider man fell right on to it just like the emblem. it was very zoomed in and soon started breaking up right after, i think it was the part where all the Drones were first attacking him. All i know is that there's a Rush fan somewhere in the CGI room that pulled this off. or who knows many its Jon Favreau himself. hey Star Wars Fans and Rush fans walk hand in hand! as my Avatar suggest!
  10. There is no Rush.

     

    Hopefully though Geddy and Al will do something soon.
