shaun3701 Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 I just hope this new album is better than the crappy S&A. Can we have a theme other than religion-bashing this time around, Neil? It's getting a little old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it was one album with a few songs critical of religion. That post makes it sound as if the last 5 albums have all been anti-religion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 QUOTE (ReflectedLight @ Mar 26 2010, 05:37 PM) a mini tour? i guess you're right but what's going to happen with the setlist? mini tour which i'm assuming will be a "revamped setlist" and a few new songs, but what's going to happen with the second round of the tour? basically the same setlist with a few more new songs, or a few more setlist changes with a few more new songs? Well they had a PeW warm up tour and a MP warm up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't wait to see where they play around here. Yeah, I'm certainly not as excited as most people seem to be, but at least they have plans for an actual album. Hey, only 4 years between albums is better than the wait the last two times. Providing they actually follow through. For my own sanity, I'm going to assume this album will be their last album, as I can't picture them still at it in 2015 or 2016 or whenever they'd normally decide to do another one. This cracks me up because I remember when I saw them in 1984 on the GUP tour and I thought THAT would be their last album and tour. Since then I stopped worrying about how long they'll be around and just enjoy the ride. I'm so lucky, my favorite band since I was young and they're still around making relevant new music, still touring and still rocking. I feel EXACTLY the same way. We're all pretty fortunate as Rush fans. Think of all the Van Halen fans or whatever...what a bunch of BS that band turned into after 1984!

I always thought the warm-up tour for Signals had the coolest name ever - the Tour of the Nadars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCM Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 Very exciting news! I only hope that Alex hasn't spoke too soon and the other two beat him over the head with his own guitars for it. Approx 45 shows - one of them HAS to be Pittsburgh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite possibly a rhetorical question but is it fairer to say Neil is critical of religion, or critical of the abuse of religion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pleeeeeease!! Clearly, that isn't physically possible, and we all suspected as much when these rumors of new music and a tour first started popping up late last year. No one thought they could get an album done by this summer, and we were afraid they'd settle on doing only a couple of new songs and that's it. Let's be glad we're getting an album next year -- better late than never. Oh, absolutely. I agree with ya. There is definitely no way that a full album will be ready before next Spring. I am certainly happy to know that an album is most likely coming at all...that makes me happy. I certainly plan to see them live this year AND next. Time to start saving those pennies!
