I did this a while back as a similar exercise. I looked at how long it's been since certain favourites had been played, and wondered how likely it was that certain vault songs might be brought out. Also, I timed out both versions of the setlist in Winamp, and they're both around that 2h45m mark that shows have been recently. For extra nerdiness, I've put in a few nods to previous tours (like opening with Overture/Temples and closing the main set with Grand Finale like on the MP tour, or the YYZ/drum solo/Red Lenses medley from PoW).

Excellent setlist, But the encore probably isn't the best place for Time Stand Still. Give Roll the Bones the axe and put Time Stand Still there instead, and that setlist is darn near perfect!

There's not enough new material. Ol' Neil would probably give himself the axe before the end of the show! Edited by Geddy's Soul Patch

I posted this in the other thread that we have for setlists below, but I'm really interested to start a discussion on realistic AND fantastical ones sets as opposed to purely sentimental ones or those on someone's dreamline.

As you'll see below, I love making rush puns.

 

Here's my Setlist! It's both fantastical and realistic. At the beginning there were too many hands on my time, too many feelings,... Too many things on my mind. However, in the end, I detached and subdivided it over and over, but now I'm happy and would endlessly rock to it any day.

Don't be afraid to give feedback on my setlist, as I can't stop thinking Big, and would enjoy others telling me what they think just between us.

So here goes it.

 

Set 1

R41 Overture - Working Man

- Anthem

- Bastille Day

- Making Memories

- What You're Doing

*leading straight from the solo towards the end into the opening song*

Far Cry

Driven

Earthshine

Kid Gloves

Red Tide

Nobody's Hero

Malignant Narcissism

Drum Solo

Secret Touch

Closer to The Heart

Second Nature

Emotion Detector

Headlong Flight

 

-- Intermission --

 

Act 2

Spirit Of Radio

Free will

Jacob's Ladder

Entre Nous

Different Strings

Natural Science

Afterimage

The Twilight Zone (ambitious, I know)

YYZ

Resist

Broon's Bane

The Trees

Mystic Rhythms

The Enemy Within

Losing It (ambitious Part II)

Everyday Glory

Tom Sawyer

 

-- Encore --

2112 (Overture, Temples, Finale)

La Villa

Fly By Night**

 

** Alex talked about how he'd like to do a heavier version of FBN so assuming they do, that's where I'd put it.

 

What do you think?

 

That first set would just kill the crowd right off the bat. You have no massive crowd pleasing song until CTTH. This set is certainly more fantasy than realistic

 

I'm gonna try and come up with my own realistic set and post it here.

 

I didn't think there was much wrong my first set... While not big hitters they have gotten good reactions from the crowd in recent years.

 

 

A tad harsh I think.

LOL. Not enough unplayed stuff for my liking. They don't have many more tours in them. I'd like to see some more of their unplayed stuff before they call it quits. However, we would get "Freeze" and the rest of The "Fear" Quadrilogy!

I think since this is the 40th anniversary tour they're going to pull something old out of their hats. Fingers crossed for The Necromancer in it's entirety! Edited by sabresman31
