Steve_888 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 So the rock radio station in Hamilton, Ontario (Y108) had a commercial for the Rush show in Hamilton in April and during the commercial they mentioned how they will be playing Moving Pictures. Is this just lazy commercial making (the station just assuming they will play MP again) or is it actually known that MP in full will return this year?

briremo Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 (edited) Seriously Steve? You think after just 40 US tour dates they'd just bag the whole MP tour and start fresh? It's one of the best stage shows and productions they've done in years, or ever, and you're surprised they're gonna stick with it? They did Snakes and Arrows for two years also...

32Ford Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 It probably makes more sense to to MP this year than last year only because the album will be 30 years old in Feb (I think). We saw them in Allentown over the summer. Really good show but we're also going to MSG and will be in a spot where we can see the entire stage production. The only thing I hope is that they switch out a tune or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBluePhoenix Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 The thing to remember is that this is still the Time Machine Tour. So it's no surprise that MP will remain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
limeloaf Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 I'm glad they're keeping MP. It's keeping the casual fan happy and the endeared ones get TCE and a smattering of vault classics. I'll die a happy man if I hear The Analog Kid at least once live in concert, and so far, that is my only request. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derxst Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 I am very happy that all of Moving Pictures is kept. I wouldn't mind some of the other songs being changed up, but all of MP is the draw for this tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaminbenb Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 I can dig seeing MP a second time as well...my guess is that they might pull a few tunes, and replace them like they did for S&A part 2 to mix it up a bit.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

micgtr71 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 I hope that they will play it just because it is being filmed on this leg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosy Toes Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 I was like so hoping for Permanent Waves, as they are touring Europe (i.e. the UK and some European dates) and PeW is like the most popular Rush album in the UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hemispheres89 Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 QUOTE (Oziumrules @ Jan 8 2011, 07:23 PM) The Camera Eye alone is worth the price of admission. THIS RIGHT HERE! THANK YOU! I can't believe we're still complaining about song choices played in their set. Come on, folks - they aren't going to tour forever! Be a little more appreciative. What we're witnessing are living legends that continued to exist after the majority of them flatlined. Here's what you need to understand: Just because you may be a very big Rush fan, does NOT mean that everyone else who goes, is as well. Keeping this in mind, they create a setlist that will appeal to the casual listener as well, which is why they will NEVER get rid of MP's songs, not matter how badly you wish they would. If they had songs just to appeal to diehard fans, thsi decreases sales revenue, and thus, ticket prices sky-rocket. You steal music by downloading it instead of buying the CD, you pay the high price for concert tickets, and then bitch about the songs the play. If you're oe of those people, then you helped mke it this way to begin with! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InvisibleAirwaves13 Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 This is not a new tour but a 2nd leg. It will be the exact same show with the exact same songs and I will love every minute of it a 2nd time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Middle Kingdom Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 I would think a song or two would be swapped. But if they didn't film any first leg shows, we would miss out on those for the dvd. So it will be interesting to see if the set remains the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
