JAG Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 not sure if that has been considered or discussed but I have been waiting nearly 30 years for them to bring it back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArrowSnake Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 I want to see this happening. I love the Fear series. It's not a trilogy by the way, there are four songs ( The Enemy Within, The Weapon, Witch Hunt, Freeze). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nate1647 Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 I'll paste in my post from the setlist. Ironically, every setlist i've posted has included the Fear Trilogy and no one has commented on it at all! here's the post: Let me start out by saying that Clockwork Angels has become my favorite Rush album of all time. With ALL of the support behind this outstanding effort (the book, all the time machine stuff leading into it), the reaction from fans so far, and the enthusiasm the guys have for it, I believe we'll see the whole thing played. It was brought up earlier that an extended drum solo in Headlong Flight would work, and I agree. I'm sure Neil realizes that the big band ending has lost the power it had 10 years ago when he unveiled it. BU2B2 is also the perfect place for a break for Neil as well. That being said, here we go! Sitcom style intro set in the suburbs Subdivisions Cut to the Chase Prime Mover Test for Echo Hemispheres Prelude The Enemy Within The Weapon Witch Hunt Freeze Middletown Dreams Far Cry 2112 (Overture/Temples/Grand Finale) Intermission Clockwork Angels film narrated by Neil, or acted by people including the boys. I think this film will be fairly serious and will go in between all the songs, telling the story along the way. Caravan Bu2b Clockwork Angels The Anarchist Carnies Halo Effect 7 Cities of Gold The Wreckers Headlong Flight (drum solo in the middle) Bu2b2 Wish Them Well The Garden Encore The Spirit of Radio Limelight Tom Sawyer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAG Posted June 9, 2012 Author Share Posted June 9, 2012 I am aware of "freeze", I am refering to the original trilogy. To me it will remain a trilogy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flying Finn Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 If they play The Weapon and The Enemy Within fine, I'm okay with that. But naah Freeze ain't great song and they played Witch Hunt in their last two tours. Don't need to hear that one again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArrowSnake Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Freeze is a great song and an essential part of the Fear series, adding the element of the "fight-or-flight response" theory. You guys are stuck in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SchemingDemon Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 We don't really need to hear Witch Hunt again, but I'd be very happy with The Weapon and The Enemy Within. I wouldn't be disappointed if they played Freeze though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShlappinDahBass Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 I love the whole series. All four of the songs happen to be one of my favorite songs from those albums. Aside from Witch Hunt. Every song from Moving Pictures is my fave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrandDesigner Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 I don't see them playing The Enemy Within and The Weapon without Witch Hunt. I'm dying to see those two songs live so I'd be more than happy to sit through WH again if it means I get Enemy and Weapon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the record I like Witch Hunt but there isn't unlimited space in the setlist. That's why I rather hear something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vital signz Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 No way they will do Fear... Not enough set list space to include The Enemy Within and Freeze, and no way Witch Hunt gets a nod this time around. I do believe there is a chance we could see The Weapon, but not a big chance.

quickfree Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Yep, they can do it. Even after saying Freeze was not possible live. So draw you're own conclusions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
micgtr71 Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Was Fear ever called a trilogy by the band? I would enjoy hearing any and all of those songs. I have been wanting TEM and TW for years and I can listen to WH any day as well. This would be fantastic to hear all four parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You sure? Why would they definitely not consider it? I agree that it is a long shot and probably won't play it, but I never saw anything from any of the members stating that they would never play them.

NYM86 Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Freeze is long overdue IMO. Song's on fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mika Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 I'd love to hear the full 'trilogy'! Not so sure of it's plausibilty, considering 'Witch Hunt' has been played the last two tours... but this would be the best chance of getting 'Freeze' live! 'Freeze' is probably in the top three songs I'd love to hear this tour. Don't know how well it would translate live, though... fair bit of Geddy harmonizing, and a super-long sustained note... but it would be super-wicked live!
