Tombstone Mountain Posted July 22, 2012 Author Share Posted July 22, 2012 QUOTE (ReflectedLight @ Jul 22 2012, 08:12 AM) what do these people do when they're on the stage and not being used? i guess they'll just dim the lights in that section where they'll be. this whole thing seems very odd. Ahmet Rozier,field correspondent of the Yukon Blade Grinder has an update coming out this week. I think those questions will be addressed in upcoming article.

But it's an excellent question. I like your idea with steampunk attire or red jumpsuits. I know I'm setting myself up for a huge disappointment...but when I heard they were bringing a string section....I envisioned a violinist going up to center stage to jam with Alex during Losing It. They probably won't even play that song. But it would be very cool if they did! My gut feeling is that they will go some kind of steampunk garb for the CA set just to blend in with the theatrics on screen. It's funny I say that and the first thing that pops into my head is Terry Gilliam's art. Can't see them wearing tuxedos and evening gowns (if chicks are in the orchestra). They will probably wear some type of boring black attire... but I like your ideas! From what I read of Alex's interview in Guitar World, the orchestra is going to be on stage for the entire show. i can't believe it. the entire show? this is not good. playing during neils solo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a good thing...a fantastic change of pace. They are playing a lot of stuff they never played live...that's what I want that's what i want also but only use the orchestra for the songs it was intended for, not side b tunes, classics, or anything else that might be bringing to the table. Just because they are on stage doesn't mean the orchestra will be incorporated into every song. I hope you're right me too. I'm sure that Rush will utilize the string section appropriately. Just like they have on Clockwork Angels. You damn pussies...drop the "O" word. It's an 8 piece string section for 6 songs on the back side of the stage. They either push the trigger or have actual strings play it as it was recorded. You cry-baby old school "high school" "shopping mall" wanna-bes can sure rain on a parade. so you know for a fact that they are going to use the string orchestra for 6 songs? He doesn't know shit This guy also thinks Neil won the FIELDS medal too. Alex has confirmed its for the entire show! Yeah, they'll be out there because it's probably more trouble and more time consuming to be switching them in and out for different songs. I can't see them incorporating the orchestra for every song. yep, cant imagine them playing every song. interesting to see how they are going to incorporate the string section.

Thye will most likely be on stage the whole time except the Encore. They will probably be showcased with lights when they are playing they will be lights on them , otherwise they will be in the shadows or darkened.

I'm just happy they are still together and making great music still...Strings will be fantastic!!! i just have my preferences of what they play. i don't want tired classics...however, I give them my money with a smile and a thank you.
