CygnusX-1Bk2 Posted January 26, 2008 Author Share Posted January 26, 2008 I will say that we are playing at least 3 songs we have never performed before, including something from S&A. We are also playing a few that we have either only performed once or a couple of times. Albums we are touching on include: Signals GUP Hold Your Fire (Yes I will be performing a song from this album) Presto Counterparts And others We are also going to be using some new technology for this show. We used to have a couple of songs on a sequencer with a click that we would play to. These songs will be now be played fully live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a couple of those (Mission & TMMB) are the best songs we do and a helluva lot of fun to play. We need to add songs from Presto (in the works for next time), Counterparts, Test for Echo (had one but dropped it), and Vapor Trails to get something from every album but our show now is over 3 hours and I don't know where we'd put them.

We need one each from VT, RTB, Power Windows, and Rush for us to play something from all albums. But yeah it's a lot of fun and extremely challenging. My voice is the big limiting factor. Luckily the "newer" stuff is far more reachable for me than say anything of the first 5 or 6 albums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rushfanNlv Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Well I, for one, will be looking forward to hearing what your set list ends up being. See, this way I'll know what Rush will be playing on this leg of the tour. I figure that since they took a cue from Trilogy and played Circumstances and Entre Nous on the last leg, maybe they'll show up in Concord dressed in disguises and pick up the new set list. Have a good show man. Still looking forward to that Vegas gig. Maybe I can save Brook Shields from drowning and hire you guys to play at my birthday party.

Luckily the "newer" stuff is far more reachable for me than say anything of the first 5 or 6 albums. yeah, that what our singer says too, and he's totally right, that early stuff is way up there....but it is the best stuff to play and what most want to here, IMO. Let's face it, without the first 5 or 6 albums, this forum probably doesn't exist.... anywho, GL and have a blast (please record some for us east side folks too).

CygnusX-1Bk2 Posted January 29, 2008 Author Share Posted January 29, 2008 Agreed about the first 5 or so albums. However we have favored Permanent Waves and Hemispheres so much that we have a minor bit of backlash from one guy who claimed we always play the same stuff and ride on the coat-tails of having the PW-MP-ESL kit. Despite the fact that we have never played the same setlist 2 shows in a row (even when playing 2 nights back to back). But there is some material we are more comfortable with for obvious reasons like it's the stuff we want to hear and it's what we grew up listening to. But we also like the challenge of playing different songs and I am into the tech side of things so I like to program synths and samplers for the "newer" songs. Also I am probably the most familiar with the current Rush catalog than the other two guys, especially Adam who only listens to albums after Presto with me. Though recently he's mentioned that he's been getting a little burned out playing the same tunes and he wanted the challenge of things that are new to him. Basically we are trying to expand our repertoire for our own interests as well. Hopefully it will go over well. We always feel a risk with every show. Then people show up and cheer and we feel better. Our last show in October last year went particularly well. I was willing to hang it up and leave it at that, but it is too much fun to play this stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was willing to hang it up and leave it at that, but it is too much fun to play this stuff. Wow, I can really relate and sympathize with what you are saying, especially the "hang it up" part, I did that in 2006. We pretty much went through the same, it's hard to please everyone. The classics always go over well and are fun to play, and the keyboard-intensive stuff is hard to get sounding right and often gets the old "ho-hum" reaction. Ultimately, you play what you enjoy most and besides, you'd be crazy not to take advantage of that awesome kit. For a final show with my band, I wanted to do a 25th-anniversary re-creation of the MP tour (same songs in the same order) but it never panned out. Not enough interest in the live shows to warrant the trouble and expense of keeping the band together. I sure miss it sometimes. However, I saw your YYZ clip and you guys are amazing, keep it up!
