I have to respectfully disagree. The Camera Eye is one of the best in my opinion. I do think Tom Sawyer is extremely overrated and overplayed. I would have much rather Jacob’s Ladder or Natural Science become a set list regular instead of that. The same with Vital Signs. That song didn’t get its due until decades later

Never thought we'd be crossing a song off the list after so long, but here we are.

 

Hope it happens again even if it's unlikely.....

If there was a pool for such things I'd go with tunes most likely to get crossed off the list....

 

Some Rutsey tape from the Piccadilly Tube is unearthed and Can't Fight It and Not Fade Away are on that tape

My recollection is that Geddy had plans to do a club/theater tour to support the album but then around that time, Neil said he was ready to come back to Rush so that obviously took priority.

As this thread's been bumped, I recently saw Scottish tribute band Moving Pictures and they played Different Strings, which was tremendous live. Missed opportunity guys!

Would have been nice to extend that solo at the end of the song too

Dream Theater had a really nice cover of Different Strings they played for some club dates in the late 90's. 


I agree - missed opportunity for Rush.

Imagine the live extended solo Alex would have given it!  :drool:

In general, Dream Theater used to play Rush songs that either were never played live or had not been played live in decades.

Absolutely. 

TCE and Jacobs ladder being examples of this.  Both played for Toronto shows, BTW.
