Bigbobby10 Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 Marathon is one of my favorite songs by Rush. Do you think they should play it again on this tour? 1
JohnRogers Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 They better play it or I'll get pissed and walk out at the end of the show!
cdaddie Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 It would be in my top 5 songs for sure, so yes I would love to see it played again! 2
Rhyta Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 I've played it a couple of times over the last week and was thinking I hope they will play it again but who knows? :D
bluefox4000 Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 I love it but they played on the TM tour and I saw it live so now it doesn't really matter. Mick 1
J2112YYZ Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 I love the song but since it was played on the Time Machine tour, I don't see them playing it again. I think it's one of those deep cuts you can consider retired at this point. 2

Its just like Between the Wheels, played that 2 tours and now they will scrap is most likely
JohnRogers Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 Really? I'm pretty sure I ve heard more than twice live.

I think it's one of those deep cuts you can consider retired at this point.I have to agree sadly, in listening to Geddy on That Metal Show last week. He seemed to hint that they are going to do some songs they haven't used in a while. Also after looking at the pictures of Neil's kit, they are going back to basics.
RushBoingo Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 I should Damn Well Hope So. I am scared to death about this tour's set, considering that they played so many Power Windows songs last tour, and the fact that in an interview, Neil described some of their email discussions including the words "We played a lot from that album last tour so we don't need to worry about it this tour". If the show does not include a single Power Windows song, it will suffer (look at the snakes and arrows set for evidence). I think Marathon would be the most appropriate for this tour, and a lot of people would appreciate it's inclusion. Even people who dislike Power Windows generally like Marathon. 1
Cyclonus X-1 Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 Let's go with Emotion Detector instead. 3
Midway Hawkers Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 Not likely given how much was played from PW last tour. My guess is if we get a deep cut from this era it will be Kid Gloves or The Enemy Within. A stretch would be something off HYF.
bean-tor Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 Let's go with Emotion Detector instead. Maybe even Marathon and Emotion Detector as alternating Night A & B?
Cyclonus X-1 Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 Let's go with Emotion Detector instead. Maybe even Marathon and Emotion Detector as alternating Night A & B? Then I would inevitably get Night A and be mad.
cdaddie Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 I had both tunes in my list for the "15 songs" thread so I'm all for this!
dtpoet Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 I'm thinking that there will be at least one song from each release. From PowerWindows, I believe that it will either be The Big Money or Marathon. Since Marathong was left off last tour, I'm leaning toward Marathon.
bean-tor Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 Let's go with Emotion Detector instead. Maybe even Marathon and Emotion Detector as alternating Night A & B? Then I would inevitably get Night A and be mad. Well we can't have that! As long as you get your Marathon, I would still be quite happy with these two on alternating nights :)

Powderfinger Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 Although they played it on the TM tour, and although they played a significant portion of PW on the CA tour, I wouldn't be surprised if they included it on this tour. It is a fan favorite, and it fits with the retrospective theme of R40 (longevity, stamina) and the final tour of this scale. 3
EagleMoon Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 I say no. We've heard it recently. I need to pull more stuff out of the vault that they haven't played in a longer period of time.

Since Marathong was left off last tour, I'm leaning toward Marathon.Nothing from Caress of Steel unless in a medley.After That Metal Show I believe the same can be said for Rush and FBN....Except Working Man, will make it

What are you trying to put me through here? :P Cruel and unusual punishment for no good reason is what I'm apparently trying to inflict upon you. Sorry! I meant that I hope you get to hear Emotion Detector! Serves me right for trying to sneak in a post during a work break. 1
