Recommended Posts

I'm seeing all these tweaked setlists and it's interesting to read when you don't have limitations, but what if you could only take 5 songs out and replace them with 5 that are somewhat logical and in theme with where Rush is in their careers, what would those 5 be?

 

 

Subdivisions

Big Money

Force 10

Kid Gloves (Replace Body Electric)

Cut to the Chase (Replace Grand Designs)

Jacobs Ladder (Replace Territories)

Analog kid

Bravado

Wheres my thing

Far Cry

 

Set 2

Caravan

BU2B (Replace Wish them Well)

Clockwork

Anarchist

Carnies

Wreckers

Headlong flight

Halo effect

The garden

Manhattan project

2112 (REPLACE RED SECTOR A)

YYZ

Working man

 

Encore

Tom Sawyer

Limelight

Spirit of radio

 

I know I am in the minority but I am really disappointed at no BU2B, my favorite off the album and it has become one of my all time fav Rush tunes. I also think it really came off well live during the Time Machine Tour. Reaplace Wish them Well with BU2B

 

Never cared for Power Windows so 4 songs off that album just doesn't excite me.

 

I took out Territories and replaced with Cut to the Chase one of those inexplicable songs they won't play but it rocks

 

I love love love Grace Under Pressure but they happened to pick my 2 least favorite songs from that album. Take out Red Sector A and throw in 2112 which always gets the crowd's juices flowing. I toom out The Body Elecric and replaced with one of my facorite Rush songs from the 80's-Kid Gloves

 

I am on the same page with everyone else. Jacob's Ladder is epic and must be played. Replace Grand Designs with Jacob's Ladder

 

Amazing what 5 changes does to the overall look of the setlist

that second set is ok but replace red sector a with something different like the enemy within.

the first set earthshine for the big money, prime mover for force ten, the weapon for bravado, a farewell to kings for where's my thing, and cinderella man for far cry.

I really like the first set so I didn't change too much with it. But since they are playing so many deep cuts, I think it's only right that the end it with a big hit since there's a bunch of new stuff coming in the second set people might not be as familiar with yet.

 

As far as the second set goes, I think playing nine new songs in a row is a bit much. That's why I split it up by putting in two well known songs that weren't played on the last tour. It will prevent the inevitable when it comes to people who don't know the new material from getting too bored because they're hearing song after song they don't know. I took out Working Man because if they do play anything from the 70s it should be 2112 even though they've played it a ton it's a huge crowd pleaser.

Reflected Light you were only suppose to change 5 songs form the original set.

Amazing what 5 changes does to the overall look of the setlist

Set 1:

Subdivisions

The Big Money

Prime Mover (Replace Force Ten)

The Enemy Within (Replace The Body Electric)

Grand Designs

Territories / Middletown Dreams (Instead of switching with the former spot of The Body Electric, switch with Territories.) *

The Analog Kid

Bravado / The Pass

Wheres My Thing

Far Cry

 

Set 2:

Caravan

Clockwork Angels

The Anarchist

Carnies / Seven Cities of Gold

The Wreckers

Headlong Flight

Halo Effect

The Garden

Jacob's Ladder (replace Wish Them Well and moved slot to be placed after The Garden) (Not my first pick, but I know how many fans would kill to have it, so I added it in.)

Manhattan Project / Dreamline

YYZ

Working Man

The Spirit of Radio (Removed Red Sector A, which I hated to do, and in it's spot moved The Spirt of Radio to close Set 2.)

 

Encore:

Tom Sawyer

Limelight (Added in)

2112 [Overture / Temples / Grand Finale]

 

(Made Encore to stay the same each night.)

 

* Didn't count as a real song change in my eyes. Just different slot.

 

Okay, changes might be questionable and over 5 because of moving some things around, but physically adding or removing should be 5. Hard to do only 5 though. I could've butchered the list, mostly from moving things around and taking out/adding more.

 

Also, I did both nights for this.

I would eliminate these songs from the set list. Subdivisions, Big Money,Force Ten, Body Electric,Tom Sawyer , and replace with Xanudu, Peaceable Kingdom,The Larger Bowl,Half the world, Play the entire Clockwork Angels start to finish like they did with moving pictures . Go back to the one solid Drum solo. Just my thought that all.

I really enjoyed our setlist. I was not disappointed at the end of the show one bit. However in (reasonable) fantasy land tonight would have gone more like this:

 

 

Subdivisions

The Big Money

Turn The Page>Force Ten (just because I've been dying to see it again since the HYF tour and it's got the same groove)

Grand Designs

Middletown Dreams

Territories

The Analog Kid

The Pass

Where's My Thing?

(with drum solo)

Far Cry

 

Set Two, with string section

Caravan

Clockwork Angels

The Anarchist

Seven Cities of Gold

The Wreckers

Headlong Flight

Halo Effect

BU2B>Wish Them Well (This one just isn't very good is it?)

The Garden

The Spirit of Radio>Dreamline (Same positive dynamic but the crowd would've exploded)

The Enemy Within>Red Sector A (selfish fan pick wink.gif

YYZ

Finding My Way>Working Man (Nice rocking tune to go out with. even if Ged would've struggled it would be a nice change)

 

Encore:

Tom Sawyer

2112 Part I: Overture

2112 Part II: The Temples of Syrinx

2112 Part VII: Grand Finale
