6. Workin' Them Angels 7. Faithless (never played live) 8. BU2B (new song - never played live) That's going to suck.... I really hope this isn't the real setlist, as everyone else is saying; it could be way better.

no it won't. it will give me plenty of time to run to the john, pick up a beer and something to eat before heading back.

And "Faithless" is pretty good. Personally, I would replace "Faithless" with something else. I like faithless and a part of BU2B. I don't like the idea of the atheism they're going to be pouring over the crowd when they play those 3 in a row   ..As I've said many times, I'm not very religious at all, but it bugs me when Atheists preach too.

[Mr. Not]

Well, in the past, we've learned that RIAB isn't the most reliable Rush source

 

Alex saying there's going to be JL in the setlist, and then when the setlist is released by RIAB there's no JL... Hmm..

 

But maybe Alex saying JL was going to be played was from an unreliable source as well, I wouldn't really know because the only Rush websites I visit are RUSH.com and TRF.

It's two songs out of 26 listed - 3 if you go Angels > Faithless > BU2B. I don't think it's overkill. Neil's been writing anti-organized religion stuff for over 35 years, how is this surprising to anyone by this point?

Are you guys really wanting to have a pissing contest over how you interpret Neil's lyrics? If so....exchange numbers and talk about it over the phone. This shit really isnt all that interesting to others. Unless you want to throw a sheep, candle wax, and fisting into the mix. Then I'm on board! You have to include some hard drugs in there too. That would make great reality TV on VH-1 or something. Until then, I grow weary. This is Rock and Roll right? Am I wrong?

The same applies for music.

[FootballYouBet]

If this is indeed the setlist, it's not that bad. However, on the other hand it's not that good either, because the first set has several songs in a row that are just Meh. IMO, all they need to do to make this setlist GREAT is to replace a couple of songs in the first set. Playing only one song from AFTK just sux. Especially when that song is CTTH and is basically a pop tune. I like the song but I would much rather hear Cygnus, Xanadu, or FTK. Then there's only 1 tune from Hemispheres. Add The Trees. If they just added one more tune from AFTK and one more tune from Hemispheres this setlist would be phenomenal.

[liddybuck01]

for the first night they should open with the MP song and leave everything else until after. everyone waiting in anticipation!!! lol but if they do that they should definitely not follow up with the new stuff. such a downer. maybe do both at the beginning to get it out of the way.

 

2 new songs

MP

jacob's ladder

everything else

 

 

lol

[rusher]

Except for Faithless, I don't mind this setlist. That song makes me sleepy - seriously.

 

One song from GUP and Vapor Trails would be nice too.

 

 

[trenken]

I wish they would play some really old stuff, Best I Can, Lamneth, Necromancer, Something For Nothing or Twilight Zone, AFTK title track, maybe all of hemispheres, if they did 2112 they could do that. Throw in Jacobs Ladder, and Camera Eye, and youve got one hell of a setlist there.

 

I think the fans would really react well to that stuff at the shows. Instead its just another pretty safe rush setlist.
