Can chatgpt generate a Rush set list?

[Clemjoe]

So I asked ChatGPT to generate a set list.

The parameters were to choose randomly from all songs performed live since 2001.

12 songs for set 1

12 songs for set 2

3 songs for an encore.

 

This is what it came up with.

Should I be really really excited impressed?

Or should I be really really scared?  
 

 

 

Set 1:

1. Limelight (From "Moving Pictures" - 1981)
2. Red Barchetta (From "Moving Pictures" - 1981)

Interesting choice to end with Finale but It could definitely work, after a nice transition from the Working Man solo into it. I like this list...

Sure it could, but why would you want it to?

1. I was impressed as I thought it did a great job.

2. I’m always looking to make new Rush live mixes.

That's what the ESL Live video ended on, and it worked great. It can definitely work.

It's not a bad setlist.  The second set kind of jumps around a little between hard and soft songs.... flow could be better. But overall interesting choices.

An interesting setlist. I would have loved to hear this live, or any Rush concert for that matter. I may give this list a try on Spotify some day and try to figure out if the changes from Subdivisions to Force Ten or from The Main Monkey Business to The Garden could be done fluently. (It's Rush we're talking about, so if they for some reason had decided to perform this kind of setlist they would have made the fluency happen as well.)
