Powderfinger Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 I can't believe we have four songs from Power Windows and ZERO from Fly By Night, Caress of Steel, 2112, AFTK, and Hemispheres combined. WTF? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OGr8imL84AD8inF8sBlackSedan Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 I think it's a good set....lots of 80's and PoW...but good none the less. It was fun...I'm going to bed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alchemical Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 A little underwhelmed by the ending of the show...if Manhattan Project and Red Sector A were swapped with Losing It and Jacob's Ladder and Working Man was taken out for La Villa or 2112, I'd be a lot more satisfied. Killer first set though!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pony2112 Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 I've seen them 42 times since the 2112 tour, so I like the set list. But, the casual fan will NOT like this tour. The lack of radio hits is totally shocking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevind2112 Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Well, it may not have ended perfectly, but it was a blast "enjoying" the show with everyone here! Thanks for the fun. Off to bed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
better2112 Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 LOVE IT!!! With such a HUGE catalogue, it's going to be hard to please everyone, especially those posting on a RUSH forum. still though, 26 songs! and they still will probably change it a bit in the next few shows ?!

traeplien Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 QUOTE (Shreddy Lee @ Sep 7 2012, 09:47 PM) Can someone explain to me how and why Jacob's Ladder became the holy grail for so many people to have on the setlist? I mean, I think it's a fine song, but why so much focus on it? Even since last tour, and probably before? If you've ever witnessed it live, you would know why.

It's Rush..I will love it. It will be a blast. The Power Windows/Hold Your Fire era is my least favorite by far, so this is the least enthusiastic I've been about a setlist. Don't want to come off bitchy, just don't like the songs as much But good for them for pulling out a bunch of "B" sides. But ONE song from the 70's? That amazes me . This is the opposite of the Time Machine tour...it's more like a setlist for the hardcores and for Rush themselves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtpoet Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 I'm an "80's" guy. However, even I'm a tad disappointed. I thought maybe an 80's set, a CA set, then an older set. That would be balanced and make sense. To barely hint at anything before PW is odd to say the least. There was all this talk when CA came out that it was "ok for Rush to be influenced by Rush" (ak. bastille Day in HF). I love the 80's stuff. Was totally jazzed by the 80's stuff. I just wished they would have balanced it out a bit more. Guess we will have to wait for DC in 2 days and see if the list changes any. See if they are going to do some swaps on a show to show basis.

av450 Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 huge fail not playing losing it. Jacobs ladder would be nice. Red sector A is just a terrible song imo. probably a 7/10 setlist for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAnalogDad Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 I think that the R40 tour will be more like what some are/were expecting. This seemed like an acknowledgement of the 25th anniversary of the Hold Your Fire tour with CA thrown in. Definitely some missed ops while they have strings (JL and Losing It) but let's remember this is opening night and they're still working out the bugs. Maybe we'll see some adjustments...

Again our tastes are showing to be very similar my friend. I don't love it all, but really happy over seeing several songs I hadn't expected...M. Project, A.
