ALifeson85 Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 (edited) I was thinking...who would be totally down with this idea...if Rush did a HUGE 3-night festival show, and every night, they did a different type of setlist! The first night would be EPICS...second night would be RARITIES...and the last night would be GREATEST HITS. Check it out... Night #1 : EPICS Night ---------------------------------- 2112 By-Tor & The Snowdog The Necromancer Xanadu Jacob's Ladder -Intermission- Hemispheres The Camera Eye The Fountain of Lamneth Natural Science Cygnus X-1 ----------------------------------- Night #2 : RARITIES Night ------------------------------------- Finding My Way Anthem Grand Designs Circumstances The Big Wheel Prime Mover Cut To The Chase Where's My Thing? Kid Gloves Chemistry Something For Nothing -Intermission- Test For Echo A Passage To Bangkok Bravest Face Afterimage Double Agent Middletown Dreams DRUM SOLO Different Strings (acoustic) A Farewell To Kings Lock & Key Countdown ENCORE Fly By Night ------------------------------------------ Night #3 : GREATEST HITS Night ----------------------------- The Spirit of Radio Subdivisions Marathon Time Stand Still Red Barchetta Leave That Thing Alone! Show Don't Tell Earthshine Bravado Distant Early Warning Freewill Limelight -Intermission- Tom Sawyer Analog Kid Driven The Big Money Dreamline The Pass YYZ / DRUM SOLO Alex Solo / The Trees Red Sector A Closer To The Heart Far Cry Working Man ENCORE Force Ten La Villa Strangiato -------------------------------------- That would be the Best...3 Nights...of live Rush music EVER!!!!!!!

Tommy Sawyer Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Good luck with that! Good setlists, but they are not quite complete without the Pass, Resist, Bravado, Between the Wheels, etc. Heck, why don't the boys just play their whole catalog! THAT would be a festival to remember. QUOTE Different Strings (acoustic) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColdFireYYZ Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 That would be a great idea I really like Marillion's idea of having a weekend convention in 3 cities every two years. It would be cool if Rush did something like this but they're at the end of their careers and I can't picture them doing anything like that.

Good,bad,andrush Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Bravado needs to be in there All their epics live? I'd probably pay 50000 for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lost In Xanadu Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 I'd make the trip to anywhere in the US (hell, the world) for a 3 day party such as this. It would have to be in a pretty big place....
