losingit2k Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 (edited) Well I guess we will all agree that the show will begin with some "Time Machine Movie Starring Alex or the Guys! Then they'll keep flashing the year and the album cover for which the next song will be. I also expect to see pics of the guys around those year being shown. Now its when it could get creative. News clips form the year of the song being played, Lighting to reflect the same, Maybe bringing back different stuff like the Giant Rabbits from Presto, Countdown on HD screen would be cool with the fog machines. Lazers of course during Dreamline or Red sector A. Any thoughts or should I just scram! Edited May 14, 2010 by losingit2k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigershark2112 Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 I tried to start a thread similar to this a couple weeks ago. It failed miserably. No one wants to talk about this for some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like the idea of the year being flashed on the screen with possibly news headlines of that year or pictures of events during that time period. There's a lot the boys could do with this tours theme and I hope they live up to the challenge. Would love to see Neil's MP era drum set make an appearance!

They usually do Rush history, but including world history would also be awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keakag Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 Putting the year up is a bit cheesy. I do thing we will see pictures of the band from the time of each particular album. Sort of like the montage we saw @ R30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merely Space Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 I don't know. I just don't see them going off the deep end to convey "time machine" for every second of the concert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

micgtr71 Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 A lot of talk about those rabbits. Hopefully there will be no Dreamline or Red Sector A. The lazers would be ok. I would love to see the doubleneck Rick, though I am sure that it is too cumbersome if he even still has it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LedZep Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 First time I saw Rush, Jimmy Carter was President... so I think flashing some time relevant pictures or news headlines would be cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WIDE-ANGLE WATCHER Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 I think some Time Machine related props and video, i.e., Peabody's Way Back Machine, Back To The Future's Delorean, H.G. Wells' The Time Machine, The Twilight Zone's episodes and Einstein's Theory spaced out throughout the show would be cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you look at some of the old footage, he has the figure of a 90 lb woman lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
