30kwpa Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 I recall Alex saying they were "bringing back" Jacob's Ladder and other older stuff (other than Moving Pictures) for the TMT. I was so stoked when I heard that. When the TMT set list was revealed and it was not included, I was pretty bummed. Got over it pretty quick though. Maybe it will be a drop and add for the return part of this tour, like Ghost of a Chance for Entre Nous, Red Barchetta for Secret Touch... etc. was for S&A. Will wait for spoilers and if so... Greensboro (my old stomping ground) here I come!! Heck, maybe they'll come back to Atlanta but play indoors at Gwinnett Arena. Now THAT would be nothing but totally awesome.

USB Connector Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 I'm thinking this will be one of the setlist alterations. If they do, I'm hoping they'll shorten it a little. I like the song but some parts are just too repetitive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garyg7133 Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 I will most assuredly be at the urinal for Jacob's Ladder. I don't get the uproar over this boring dud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freeze Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 It`s probably only weeks until Lifeson "confirms" Jacob`s Ladder for the second leg of the Time Machine tour! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fordgt99 Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 It didn't matter to me that it wasn't played last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALifeson85 Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Knowing MY luck, since I can't afford to catch Rush this time around, I'll bet my life savings that Jacob's Ladder gets added to the setlist this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg2112 Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 (edited) My take: Jacob's Ladder will definitely be in the 2nd leg setlist. They will also add a new CA song, likely replacing either Stick it Out or Faithless. Then there's very slight chance theres another swap-out but dont hold your breath. Not enough to get me to drop more dough for a second time this tour. Looking forward to the full CA tour (hopefully indoors) in 2012!

J2112YYZ Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Jacob's Ladder would be cool to hear live but there are a number of songs ahead of it on my list of Rush songs I wanna hear live. I'm not going to any shows on this leg so it doesn't bother me weather they do it or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cygnals Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Would love to hear JL this time around as I never heard or saw them perform this song live in person. That would be a great surprise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amish_ashaman Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 (edited) QUOTE (fordgt99 @ Jan 11 2011, 12:04 PM) It didn't matter to me that it wasn't played last year. It only mattered to me in that I always felt the set was one song short. More specifically, it was one "vault" song short. We all knew we'd get to hear The Camera Eye and Vital Signs, and the other older songs are songs that they have played for years. Last tour we got Entre Nous, Circumstances and A Passage to Bangkok. We didn't get anything on that level this time around. The closest we got to a song like that this time was Marathon or maybe Presto, but I want to hear something more from the classic period. If they are only going to do a handful of older songs, I really wish they wouldn't have filled one of those slots with Closer to the Heart. I like the new arrangement, but there is so much more from that era that I would prefer to hear. How about they scrap CTTH and Far Cry and just play all of 2112?

garyg7133 Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 I could do without 2112. It's been played in parts a lot and while it's a great album, the drop tuning does zero for it. Strange because I was so glad to hear Circumstances when they played it that the drop tuning didn't bother me at all. If they're gonna go into the vault, I'd love to hear somthing from Caress of Steel or maybe pull something "else" from Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
losingit2k Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 I believe its very possible they might play Jacobs Ladder this time out! Probably swaped for Working them Angels! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to bash the setlist, but on a "time machine" tour one would expect the kind of gems that they brought out on S+A. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuitarPlyr01 Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Where's it gonna go? Only place I can logically see it is in place of 2112, and that's because they haven't stopped playing 2112 since the 90s. I think they've played it every tour since 96 when they did all of it.
