Well in the Time Machine spirit, how about ending like they used ot end for years. And the lights, and us all clapping together, that was fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cygnus_thegodofbalance Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 I think there's much better endings than In the Mood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apetersvt Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Agreed that it should be brought back. It is (I'm pretty sure) the song that's been played the most live in their career. The song isn't that great but it certainly belongs as part of their live set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trenken Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Yeah I didnt love when they ended the shows with the standard issue rock show medley. I was happy when they stopped that. I get why they did it though, it was a high energy way to end a show, but I just wasnt into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alph Seeker Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 I would love to hear it come back! In college, ITM was one of the only Rush songs my roommate liked. He had really bad taste in music himself. Billy Joel was about the only thing we could agree on. That said, the stereo was mine, so it was rarely an issue . We had an agreement - he could listen to his music in exchange for helping me with math. Lets just say I eventually dropped calculus and made it up during the summer session. I played In the Mood a lot, though - I had to live with the guy after all... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xanadu93 Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Sure, it's a "dumb" song, but who cares? It's probably the best closer they've ever used. Beats the hell out of "YYZ". The only song that came close IMO is "Working Man". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
micgtr71 Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 I used to love that ending. Somewhere I have one of those HYF balloons. They had Rush printed on them the same way it was on the HYF album. November 87-Utica, NY...23 years ago! Damn! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBluePhoenix Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 I vote NO! Don't get me wrong, I like their first album but to play In the Mood or even Working Man live is a waste of time that would be better spent on deeper cuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lerxt1990 Posted April 28, 2010 Author Share Posted April 28, 2010 Its not about the song: its obviously not Shakespeare and its not Xanadu, its energetic, fun, and tongue-in-cheek in a way. They played it so long thusly, and for nostalgia's sake. I'd love to hear it again, and break out a cowbell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
