40th Anniversary Blu ray/DVD/CD, Will There Be One and Where Will it Be Recorded?

[DirkPrattLerxst]

Will they make one and if so, where do you think it'll be recorded?

[The Analog Cub]

Does the pope shit in the woods?

 

Oh, it'll be recorded and released like they've been doing since Vapor Trails. My imaginary gambling money's on the two Toronto shows.

[Justin Case]

Yes, most likely. My guess is that it will be filmed either in Toronto or NYC/Newark.

[The Analog Cub]

Yes, most likely. My guess is that it will be filmed either in Toronto or NYC/Newark.

 

I doubt they do New York based alone on the fact that the Grace Under Pressure concert was recorded there.

[Justin Case]

Yes, most likely. My guess is that it will be filmed either in Toronto or NYC/Newark.

I'm pretty sure P/G live was done in Toronto.

"The program was shot over two nights in September '84 at Maple Leaf Gardens. The production, which included the use of 12 cameras, 40 vari-lites and 300 pars audience lights, was on par with our co-production of Bowie's Serious Moonlight show, and the same director, David Mallett, was used. We used a lot of Canadian talent (Magnetic North Corporation did the post-production and the audio producers were Terry Brown and Jon Erickson) and, in CPI's pitch to prospective clients, we emphasize the strength of Canadian production talent." - Steve Howard, Concert Productions International, Canadian Musician, May 1985

My bad. For some reason I was thinking it was done in Radio City Music Hall.

[gudbuytjane]

Knowing they will inevitably release a live album and BluRay from the tour is one of the few things helping me accept that I am not going to see them live (*sobs of the broke-ass broke*).

RCMH was the site for the pre P/g! warm-up shows.

Marillion opened. I was there for a few of the shows ;)

[Snaked]

I don't have confirmation on this yet but all indications are that they will record both Toronto shows.

I like your line of reasoning, though. If the band is on the same page, NYC may be a shoe-in!! :dweez:

Highly doubt it would be NYC and/or Newark.

Union costs for both venues are through the roof.

 

But ya never know...

I think you're right...it's more of a hope for me than anything else.

[bscsmkr]

To me Toronto is really the only choice

Two nights

Their hometown

Their final tour of this scale

It all makes sense and is appropriate

 

Unless they add more dates, but snaked hasn't given us any indication of that happening

[YYZumbi]

Ofcourse it will be one....

 

and it will be recorded in Rio I hope!! With a better mixing then Rush In Rio.

[Disembodied Spirit]

Toronto because they will play both sets

I would like to see a Pre tour doc. Setup, prep maybe even a 5 hour setlist being discussed and cut down.

Pretty much any extras off stage in case this is it

[jamie]

Of course they'll release one. It'll probably be in Toronto or some other big city.

[EagleMoon]

They should record multiple shows. I think that would be the most appropriate thing to do. Doubtful that they would, just because it would probably be cost inhibitive.

[BlairC45]

Toronto of course! ;) Seen them when they recorded Grace Under Pressure at Maple Leaf Gardens and will be there when they record at Air Canada Centre! :)

[Mr. JD]

I hope it will be Toronto. I have tickets for the night 2 show. With RushCon announcing a "mini con" for the Toronto dates, recording the shows would make the trip complete.

[The Analog Cub]

They did for the CA Tour in Dallas and Phoenix, probably for a couple reasons:

 

1. They had rotating songs in the setlist.

2. Age has caught up with them.

 

That's why Toronto would be perfect for this. 2 nights to go off of for a release.

Yeah I know they did, which is part of the reason for the bad editing job on CA.

 

I was thinking of more dates separated by a few nights each.

[limbo]

Wish they would record in MN. The excel was built for concerts first hockey second. The sound is amazing.

[Pale Facsimile]

If they REALLY wanted to go for a "live souvenir for the fans" type of cash cow, they should record the soundboard of every show and release it online a few days later for $9.95 MP3 and $12.95 FLAC files, the way Metallica does (and HAS done since the beginning of the 2004 Madly in Anger Tour). Now, granted Metallica's setlist changes on a nightly basis (usually half of the 18 songs stay the same and they mix up the other nine...from what I understand, Lars takes suggestions during the Meet and Greet and then the guys decide just before they go in the tuning room to jam/warm up). If RUSH did this, despite the setlist staying the same, or only swapping out a few songs, I still would have bought all 8 shows I've been to since 2007, and probably would have bought a few from the CA Tour where they played Middletown Dreams.

[greg2112]

Take it to the bank. Hoping its the MSG show Im going to.

[Midway Hawkers]

Toronto is the logical choice but I could see KC or Denver as well given they are at the start of the final leg. Ged's voice would be rested and the show should be running like clockwork at that point.
