LedRush Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 I thought they'd never played "The Necromancer" live... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CZS82iWQ-X8 They played the By-Tor/Necromancer combo several times on the '77 tour. I have the boot "You Can Trust Your Car" with one version. I have a boot of them playing the whole thing when they opened up for Kiss in Nov. of 1975. http://www.digitalrushexperience.com/database/tourlist.php?tour=3 I have the one called Stainless Steel.

LedRush Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 I thought they'd never played "The Necromancer" live... There's a very shitty quality bootleg of a performance of it on youtube If you think that's bad, you should hear the sound quality of the one with the full version being played!

Hear Again Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Fountain of Lamneth was never played live. Where and when does the source material say it was played? I don't know of they ever played the whole thing, but I've heard that parts have been performed Yes, this is true. It was done in a weird kind of medley with the heavy parts of The Necromancer thrown in. Take Care Do you have a source for this, because I've searched a few times and nothing I've seen indicates that the song had ever been played live.The only source I have is that I was there. It wasn't played in it's entirety so I don't know if that counts or not. I don't think I've ever seen a setlist that showed that they opened with Bastille Day for that show either. But, they did and continued to open with it for the next (probably) 3 tours I saw after that. Take Care What was the date of that show? I'm getting very jealous. I'm thinking January 1976. About a month before my 16th birthday :codger:.It was about my 4th time seeing them though. Second at Massey hall. Take Care Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WorkingAllTheTime Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 What really pops off the page for me is how criminally underplayed the brilliant Entre Nous was in the last 34 plus years of touring. I thought that was a huge highlight of the Snakes and Arrows tour (first leg). I hope they bring that one back for R40. Such a great song. Agree. I love the song. I have always heard the challenge was the arrangement... trying to get it right and do it justice live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tickets usually said "No Cameras No Recorders" and they would confiscate said items. That setlist isn't even close... They headlined that show so the set was longer by far and as I said, they definitely opened with Bastille Day. Joe Mendelson"s Mainline was the opening band. That was a weird choice.

lerxt1990 Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Chemistry was played on the RTB tour in '92? I heard it's never played. (Singals tour) They played it, but then dropped it out of the setlist towards the end.... Signals Tour (New World Tour)September 3, 1982 - July 23, 1983Signals released: September 25th, 1982 TourdatesSetlistsThis is the first time the "Three Stooges Theme" was used to open the shows; it would be used until the Presto tour and then return for one final time for Vapor Trails tour. As demonstrated in numerous recordings, Rush had fun this tour, often changing the lyrics to some of the older songs such as "The Spirit of Baseball" and "The Plumbers of Syrinx" (with Lerxst adding additional vocals). For this tour, "The Camera Eye" was abbreviated such that only the "New York" or "London" section would be performed each night on a seemingly random basis. Although the setlist remained the same throughout most of this tour, "Chemistry" and "The Camera Eye" were dropped from the setlist in Germany, and although "The Camera Eye" was brought back for later dates, "Chemistry" did not return and has not been played since.

GrandDesigner Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 The band really limited their selection of songs from around Signals through Counterparts. The early 80's to mid 90's setlists had the least amount of variation and really didn't see the band breaking out of their comfort zone except for the odd song or two. They stuck to the same 70's songs as encores and played mostly the same 80's material from tour to tour. It wasn't until TFE where they brought back more obscure songs like 2112 and Natural Science, and even moreso with the most recent CA, TM, and S&A tours which show the greatest variation in setlists ever. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grover Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 The above set list for the Signals tour is correct but the encore was YYZ with the drum solo. The medley was at the end of the main set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
