Jacob's Ladder 2286 36.7%

Hemispheres 1521 24.4%

Middletown Dreams 1115 17.9%

A Farewell To Kings 1102 17.7%

Fly By Night 967 15.5%

Kid Gloves 861 13.8%

The Enemy Within 800 12.8%

Vapor Trail 734 11.8%

Manhattan Project 714 11.5%

 

 

I'd like to think 3 will make the cut, but my gut says just 2 will be in the setlist: Hemispheres (Prelude only), and Middletown Dreams.

 

Maybe 1 of these gets the 'strings treatment'?

 

 

[dtpoet]

I'm going with 2; JL and KG. Maybe a hint at Hemi-Prelude.

[Running Rebel]

Can't argue with the list. I'd love to hear any of them.

[FountainOfSyrinx]

Jacob's Ladder 2286 36.7% LIKELY

Hemispheres 1521 24.4% NO WAY

Middletown Dreams 1115 17.9% EHHH

A Farewell To Kings 1102 17.7% NO WAY

Fly By Night 967 15.5% NO WAY

The Weapon 893 14.3% LIKELY

Kid Gloves 861 13.8% LIKELY

The Enemy Within 800 12.8% NO WAY

Vapor Trail 734 11.8% NO WAY (I wish though )

Manhattan Project 714 11.5% LIKELY

 

 

Thats what i think

[snowdog212]

Well you know AFTK wont be played Geddy said as much in an interview

[Alchemical]

I can see half of those making the cut. Jacob's Ladder, Middletown Dreams/Manhattan Project (One or the other), A Farewell to Kings, The Weapon, Kid Gloves

[The Mighty Dudad]

I'd be shocked if ANY of those songs made the set list. Personally would love to see Kid Gloves...but not holding my breath.

[The Cat 3]

I'd love to see them play "Middletown Dreams".

 

I think that, with the string section, that "Jacob's Ladder" is good bet.

[BU2BoneU]

If you watch the Hemispheres Prelude from the Counterparts bootleg, Geddy's singing is extremely forced and pitchy, and that was 1993-94. I can't imagine what it would sound like in 2012.

I'm thinking an instrumental Hemispheres Prelude, maybe with the strings playing the vocal melody.........

[ReflectedLight]

it's either going to be something different where they mix things up a bit or the agony of defeat.

[ReRushed]

I'm surprised "The Analog Kid" isn't on the list. It should be.

i'm surprised also. don't worry they won't play it. they'll play roll the bones instead.

[pdurbin22]

Mark my words: "The Analog Kid" WILL be played on this tour.

Jacobs Ladder

The Analog Kid

Cut To The Chase

Manhattan Project

Funny, I've had a weird feeling for months that this is a song they're finally going to play

[Snyder80]

If they play The Enemy Within or Middletown Dreams, I'm going to cream myself right where I stand.

[sb2112]

I predicted Jacob's Ladder, Manhattan Project and The Enemy Within. The Weapon is one I could see happening too.

I think Cut to the Chase might make it this time around. Isn't it usually one of the more requested songs each tour?

[bigalfan]

I could hear the first two played repeatedly for three hours and I'd walk away happy! see? >

[anchorman]

At some point, the band will have to acknowledge that Hemispheres (the song) is one of the best pieces of music they have ever composed.

 

I don't care about Geddy's vocals. Pipe them in if you have to, but play the darn thing and play it in the right key.

 

I would love to hear every one of the songs listed. It would be a welcome change from these staples:

 

SOR

Tom Sawyer

Free Will

2112 (Intro)

CTTH

Limelight

YYZ

Working Man

 

I realize Tom Sawyer HAS to be played, but that's it. Working Man has become a joke.
