Cygnus 2112 Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 (edited) I saw Clockwork Angels Tour twice, 9 shows into the tour and 5 shows from the end. Same setlist both times, with no Limelight and no Manhattan Project. I would've loved to have seen it, even as a show opener. But Snakes And Arrows tour happened when I was in grade 12 and mom didn't want me to miss any school at the time, so it didn't happen. Damn parents looking out for my life.

Ged Lent's sis Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 I wasn't a fan of Limelight as an opener. It's just not that type of song Nah...Spirit of Radio was probably the best opener! It's funny I'd never given their opener much thought in these terms, but "Limelight" as an opener does seem like an odd choice. Fantastic song, but the energy seems all wrong (not the least for a band with their name). Speaking of "SoR": My first concert had the best opener and subsequent first few of the set: 2112, Freewill, By-Tor, Xanadu, The Spirit Of Radio, Natural Science!... I'm getting goosebumps typing this. I, too, am still bummed I missed R40. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treeduck Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 I did see R30 and the Time Machine Tour, but when R40 happened, I'd moved to Idaho from Los Angeles, and so the closest to me I think would have been Salt Lake City, and I just didn't make it. I will kick myself for ever over that decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnoble Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 Dreamline was always a great opener 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RushX1 Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 (edited) I too missed the R40 show. Had lawn seats and a giant thunderstorm was raging in the area so I thought for sure it would be miserable on the lawn. I made the tough decison not to go figuring I'd hit another show later on the tour. Alas, it never happened. To add insult to injury, the raging storm cleared and turned to clear skies just before Rush hit the stage. At least I still have the unused paper tickets.

Rush Cocky Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 I missed R30 AND R40 Time Machine was the last time I saw them live. No regrets though, all 5 of my shows contained very pleasant memories, and I went home satisfied each time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
