apetersvt Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 QUOTE (bigalfan @ Jun 28 2011, 05:30 AM) NOBODY is dumping Presto? Seriously? Dump Time Stand Still for Time & Motion Dump Presto for Peaceable Kingdom I'd dump Presto in a heartbeat other than the fact that it is somewhat of a 'surprise' tune that we'd never seen live before. For that reason, there are tunes that I like more that I would drop before Presto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark5705 Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Ok if we assume the Time Machine is a real working device and it actually makes everyone the correct age for when the songs were written: "I think I'm going bald" for "Stick it out" "Between the wheels" was good live for "Faithless" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow! Another Rush fan who loves "We Hold On." Talk about a great song. I love the way the song closes out the "S&A" record. "We Hold On" should be in the set list next year. I love how "Available Light" closes out "Presto" too. Yet another song I would love to see live. There is always "Hope" since the greatest band in the world is still going strong! Rush Rules!

greyfriar Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 There are a lot of 'close out' songs, beside Available Light and We Hold On, I'd like to hear live: Between The Wheels Countdown Mystic Rhythms Out Of The Cradle High Water ... or the older ones Cygnus X-I Book I Natural Science In The End just to mention a few Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HorsemanOfTheApocalypse Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 (edited) OUT - Stick it out & Tom Sawyee. IN - Available Light & hmmm... so many... erm... Madrigal, Different Strings, A Farewell to Kings, The Stars Look Down, Between Sun & Moon... I am also in total agreement with OUT MP, IN COS, not that I dislike MP but COS live would be total genius - even to a genius! Working Man would have to stay due to it's "closure" factor - effectively Rush's career took off when Donna Halper heard & started playing WM on WMMS in Cleveland in 1974, & I guess (well, I'm sure) the boys have DVD'd Cleveland on this tour as a nod to that starting point. For the same reason I think Time Stand Still needs to stay - very much an "end of the summer" "looking back" type of song - "old friends growing older" is now surely as much a nod to "us" - the people who have followed Rush for spans of geological time, as it was to whoever it referred to in the mid '80's. In many ways this song works even better with the boys being at this stage in their lives (& we at ours ?) that it did when it was written. I also think Closer To The Heart is another nod to "closure" - a song which allegedly at least one member of the band never wanted to play live again, but such an audience singalong in the past that it is back again to say bye-bye ? (that doesn't mean I wouldn't change it though!) I think some songs (& maybe not just/even the above ones ?) are in the set-list for certain "deeper" reasons - not just because one has a nice bass line or whatever ? ...then again I might be talking a load of rubbish & the songs are just "here because they're here" Edited July 1, 2011 by HorsemanOfTheApocalypse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Available Light would also be close to perfect as a replacement - for Stick it Out, say. We Hold On is among the best on S&A (my Nr. 6 after Far Cry, the instrumentals and The Way The wind Blows), despite some minor flaws (it's a bit too long, but, hey, Hemispheres could have done with some minutes less). A fine piece of songwriting. I had come to think they lost the skills of ending a record appropriately after the mid eighties (All the closers between PoW and TfE are not that great for me, with the notable exception of Available Light), but then they came up with Out of the Cradle (fine enough, though it gets some bashing here, even more as VT in general) and, even better, We Hold On. They've played nearly every song off S&A now, so why not add the last missing GOOD one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scars Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 ONLY two? I think if given the option, I'd be dumping half the setlist... OUT: Faithless Workin' Them Angels The fact that S&A has 3 songs yet Fly By Night, Caress Of Steel, Grace Under Pressure, Roll The Bones, Test For Echo, and Vapor Trails don't even get touched ticked me off. So to compensate for at least some of those albums, I'd put in Test for Echo and Dreamline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
