progmaniac Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Hey, Sorry if this has already been covered but I just wanted to know wether Rush plan on playing the whole album Moving Pictures on the Clockwork Angels tour? It's gonna be my first Rush concert and I'm stupidly excited. See you in London! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ancient Ways Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 since they did it last tour there is zero chance they will play MP in its entirety. I would be surprised to hear more than 2 songs from it actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GUP1771 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I seriously doubt they will for this tour, but I bet it is safe to say we'll be seeing at least Tom Sawyer and Limelight returning. Maybe YYZ too, but I don't think we'll see the other half returning. In my opinion, as long as I see Limelight live again, I'll be happy in regards to Moving Pictures being played.

HomesickAlien Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 No! I think that album is back in the vault and never to see the light of day. You're guaranteed to hear Tom Sawyer and Limelight. They're concert staples, and casual fans as well as first timers like yourself expect them to be performed. Whatever they play, you're going to have a great time!

rocketom Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Limelight is not a guarantee, there are several tours where they did not play it, I hope The Clockwork Angels tour is another one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

losingit2k Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I really don't think so. But I'm sure you'll get Tom Sawyer, Limelight and YYZ on this tour maybe even Red Barchetta. Anything else would be surprising but then who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mika Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Rush surely wouldn't be so boring as to repeat the playing of the same entire album two tours in a row, especially with Clockwork Angels to play with! I'm sure 'Tom Sawyer' and probably 'Limelight' will get played, but a no to 'YYZ' or 'Red Barchetta', and sadly a no to 'The Camera Eye' (wow, did that ever rock last tour!), 'Vital Signs' (aw!) and 'Witch Hunt' (well, they did that one two tours in a row, which makes its appearance as part of the 'Fear' trilogy unlikely, unfortunately).

BrightAntennae Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Yup...probably just Limelight and Tom Sawyer this time around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be surprised if it was just Tom Sawyer....Honestly, after the last tour(s) I wouldn't mind if they didn't play anything off of MP.

greyfriar Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Maybe we get 'The Camera Eye' again. Geddy and Alex mentioned in interviews how they enjoyed to bring the song back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leslie145 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I'd be happy enough if they left out Tom Sawyer and/or Limelight - not that they're bad songs (far from it), it's just they always play them - face it, after 30 odd years, even Rush must be getting a little tired of them by now If they were only to play 1 song from MP, I'd give a big thumbs up to Camera Eye, but hey, that's just my little wish & yes, they will play Tom Sawyer & Limelight (and yes, I will sing along in my usual lusty & unmusical fashion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJH Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 2-3 songs at the most...I really hope they do camera eye again,also Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil has said how much of a challenge it is to play and that's why they enjoy playing it so much. It's also a song that, for me, evokes the spirit of RUSH as a group the best. Whenever i hear it, i feel like it's a part of me, and i dont think i will ever get tired of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This just in: EARTH NOT FLAT! They did play MP in its entirety and The Camera Eye became an all-time favorite for the entire band throughout the entire TM tour. Read interviews much?

Tarkus406 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 (edited) Tom Sawyer = definite, can't avoid it - 100% Red Barchetta = probably taking a back seat this tour - 30% YYZ = maybe - 45-50% Limelight = most likely - 80% The Camera Eye = highly doubted, but would LOVE IT - 15% (half-version 25%) Witch Hunt = nah, plenty of stage time since 2007 - 15% Vital Signs = only a very slight chance - 20% Entire album = zero, zilch, not on your life - minus 0% divided by 0 Edited July 17, 2012 by Tarkus406 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ancient Ways Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I say Tom Sawyer for sure and a small chance of one of the other songs from side 1 but no more than this. Nothing from side 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdhonda Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 You guys do realize that they have only missed YYZ on one tour (RTB), right? The chances of it appearing are closer to 80-90% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they could play 'Where's My Thing?' with the ethereal opening they did on the Roll the Bones tour, that would just be awesome. I would gladly have this traded in place of 'YYZ'!

The chances of it appearing are closer to 80-90% No complaints from me on YYZ- my favorite instrumental by them (very closely followed by 'La Villa...') Although when I saw them on the TM tour, there was a chap behind me who I think had seen Rush In Rio too many times & insisted in 'singing' along at the top of his voice just as an aside, even though YYZ is my favorite instrumental, YYT is my favorite airport... St.John's, Newfoundland (no Newfie jokes please), been many times & love the place Edited July 18, 2012 by Leslie145 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
