Alexmai Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 A 2112 instrumental medley, then the whole CA for the first set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilb1972 Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 Although on the 2112 tour, they did (minus The Oracle) the whole suite. And on the Hemispheres tour they did the whole album as well, although I don't believe they did it all back to back. And those were "new" albums with epic length material being wielded on their respective tours. So while they probably won't -- I wouldn't say its not within the realm of being at least plausible that they might. This is Rush after all.

CrossedSignals Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 QUOTE (GeddyLeefan2112 @ Apr 25 2012, 10:21 AM) I think people need to stop being so hung up on the idea of a full album in the set list. If it happens, it happens. While I think Clockwork Angels will be a fantastic album, playing the whole thing, either set, would be a mood killer. I understand its a concept album but it will also be a new album. You need some old classics to break it up and keep the momentum going. Of course this is all imo. No full albums, please ....unless it's Grace Under Pressure. Or Power Windows. Also, all of Hemispheres would rock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Killer Rabbit Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Totaly going to be Tai Shan, and then to piss you off even further, do a cover of Nu shooz "I cant wait" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apetersvt Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 I too would put my money (if I were a gambler) on Far Cry. tSoR unlikely as it opened last tour. Other thoughts: OLV Subdivisions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once we hear the album we'll know better how this tour will go down! If the album is unbelievable, We will probably hear the whole thing, If not about 7 songs spread about here and there between the sets! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexmai Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Maybe this? Opening song 3 from CA 2 standards 3 from CA 2 standards intermission 3 from CA 2 rarities 3 from CA encores Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
losingit2k Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 I'm going with these as openers: Set 1: Caravan Set 2: Subdivisions Encore: 2112 Overture 2nd Encore: Limelight I think its time for RUSH to have a 2nd Encore! I think it would be really cool and surprising! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
traeplien Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Opening number is going to be the return of "Big Money". You heard it here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yokkov Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 QUOTE (01GT Eibach @ Apr 23 2012, 11:55 PM) QUOTE (CrossedSignals @ Apr 15 2012, 07:38 PM) With the indoor shows, 2112 would work as a good opening song. Just imagine the house lights going down, and then the unmistakable "whzzzzzzz"ing intro to 2112...and the place going NUTS... That's why 2112 was their opener from 2112 all the way through to Moving Pictures (MP was the first tour where they stopped after Temples, though) Yeah um... I hate to rain on your parade but that's just not true... The opener on the 2112, All The Worlds A Stage, Farewell to kings, and Hemispheres tours was always either Anthem or Bastile Day.

greg2112 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 The should open with 2112. I'd love the version that they opened with on the PW tour, but ill settle for overture-temples. Oh and lets hope theres not some goofy video on before, completely detracts from the power and excitement of the opening song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quickfree Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 My head says "In The Mood" or "My Best's Girl" but my heart says "Bytor". Definitely I double dog dare and no givebacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snyder80 Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 I really can't see them playing all of CA on this tour. I mean, lets face it, they've only done that once, and it was Moving Pictures! That's setting the bar quite high for playing complete albums. Anyway, I'd love to see them open with 2112, as long as, they include the Grand Finale. Otherwise, I'm not interested. Other good openers could be Distant Early Warning, with mucho lasers, The Big Money, Far Cry, etc. I'd be happy with any of those. Actually, I'll be happy either way, it's f***ing RUSH!!! C'mon man!

greyfriar Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 I've just heard that 'THE ANALOG KID' will definitely be the opener for the second set. Also stated: 'Signals' will be a balance point for the upcoming shows. The Info is from the german Rush Forum and the guy who posted this has contact to the direct periphery of the band and is also a friend of Alex's son.

While I'm sure your information is good faith, I'd be kind of surprised if they have the setlist figured out this far in advance of the tour. I'd tend to think they're still arguing about it. We haven't even had Alex guarantee a song everyone is dying to hear yet, that will end up being a big disappointment when they don't play it. But I hope you are right.
