Since CA is such a hard rocking album for the most part and they plan to play most of it, I think that they might try to keep the entire show a little harder rocking than most recent tours have been. I think they are going to bring back some of the really hard rocking older stuff which would make this one pretty heavy rocking show. Could this be their heaviest rocking show since the early eighties or maybe even the late seventies?

Ummm no.

 

Let's see... strings (and those softer older songs they'll play with the strings), and some of the highlights from CA are Halo Effect, Garden and Wreckers.

 

I guess if you are used to Air Supply, this upcoming tour could be considered hard rocking...

Strings and metal/hard rock rule!

 

Sorry, but I guess that I am not as familiar as you are with Air Supply. tongue.gif

Yes i think it may be of a heavier bent tongue.gif .

but pleeeese no more sawyer,spirit, 2112,limelight etc,etc angry.gif

I say the same, even though I've only seen them live 4 times...I'm ok with keeping Tom Sawyer, it was their biggest hit etc etc, but why do they insist on Limelight,2112, Spirit of Radio etc? If they got rid of at least one of the three, that would seriously help the setlist.

I agree. The songs are just played out. Put them on the shelf and save them for r40 or whatever comes next. Since MP was played live I say leave every song from the album out of the setlist.

Passage Bangkok

Test for Echo

The Manhattan Project

Kid Gloves

The Trees

Far Cry

 

Second Set

 

Caravan

The Wreckers

Losing it

Headlong Flight

The Garden

Xanadu

Tom Sawyer

The Spirit of Radio

La Villa Strangiato

Bytor and the Snowdog

Ok, maybe I didn't add enough songs from CA But I'd be happy with that Set list!

You people are nuts! Limelight, Sawyer, 2112 are the main reasons why I got addicted to RUSH...It was in 1981 when I was 13 and I heard The Spirit of Radio on some fair ride...Limelight is my alltime favorite song as that is his best solo IMO.....They will no doubt continue with these songs...These are anchor songs...

Not sure...but I am willing to bet that Alex will fart at least 5 times during each stop on the tour. Shall we have a poll on that?

What's the big deal about that? I farted five times just while I was reading your post. It was the most enjoyable part of reading your post.

Since CA does rock pretty hard, I think it will inspired the boys to play harder stuff like, By-Tor and the Snow Dog, Jacobs Ladder and Xanadu who knows maybe even the Necromancer?
