They were lean, fit, and rocked it like 20 year olds! Amazing concert! How was Alex's solo? Did he also have one at the end of The Wreckers? Thanks.

Dscrapre Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 QUOTE (lerxt1990 @ Sep 7 2012, 09:28 PM) I think what youll miss is that its a f-cking great song, one of their best, from their best album, and it wont get played. But Bravado will be. Fail. I'm not that huge of a fan of it. I do actually prefer Bravado. The big thing for me is that I'm going with 3 other people, my brother and 2 of my friends. Limelight is my brother's favorite rush tune, same with one of my friends. The moment of unity is what I'm going to miss most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mighty Dudad Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 I happen to love the set list. Is it the 25 songs that I would have chosen? Of course not, but then again they didn't ask for my input, did they? I can't wait to see Analog Kid, Grand Designs, Territories, and CA in Chicago next week. There have been rumors of some rotating songs, so 7 Cities and BU2B lovers may get their wish...probably at the expense of HE and WTW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djfunkywill Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Perhaps this is a rebellion against their surge in popularity. Most definately a setlist a serious Rush fan could appreciate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeaveMyThingAlone Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 BU2B is my favorite song off CA. Disappointing it's one of the only ones that didn't make it along with Seven Cities Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
presto123 Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 (edited) I'm just wondering how the CA stuff sounded. Such great material is probably even better with live strings. How many tears during The Garden? Edited September 8, 2012 by presto123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iluvgeddy05 Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Just got back from Manchester. I feel like they picked my younger brain and said "yes, let's play those songs" Unbelievable! I'm in love. I was dying with the first set with pure joy and shock. Plus, it included and impromptu drum solo in the middle of Where's my Thing which was awesome!! The strings were a really nice compliment and not weird or overbearing. Tons of new pyro and lighting tricks Tad disappointed in the encore but definitely a crowd favorite. IT WAS SO GOOD.

ALifeson85 Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Check out the setlist in the picture....notice Limelight is crossed out of the encore. Perhaps that was from tonight, and was crossed out due to the band running a little late starting the show?? http://a.yfrog.com/img876/8745/wbpenn.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dscrapre Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 On a positive note, I'm very happy with how well-represented CA is. Clockwork Angels the song is gonna be so awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clockwork Angels the song is gonna be so awesome! Totally. If I had to nitpick the CA section I'd swap Caravan for Seven Cities. I like Caravan but since we already got that and BU2B last tour and have them on dvd I would have preferred Seven Cities and I like it even more anyway. But that's a minor, minor complaint. The whole thing looks awesome to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ged introduced it as "a song very near and dear to us." Alex played the piano section and the strings were perfect. Definitely a highlight.

Some of the cheering was for the song, which sounded great, though there was some low-level feedback squealing through much of it, sadly. Some of the cheering felt like "This is the last song from CA, so thanks for playing SO MUCH of the new album." It was the highlight for me.
