Narps Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 Territories definitely belongs and deserves the disco ball treatment along with The Weapon , Red Sector A and of course Scars... :dweez: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laughedatbytime Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 I'm looking for a good concert version of the song and can't find one. So far, the studio one is the best. There's something about the song that it loses live, and I don't know why that is.There are plenty of boots from the CA tour, and most of them have been able to keep the snoring from the crowd down fairly low in the mix. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HemiBeers Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 Love it. one of neil's better lyrics imo. glad to see it live last tour, but I have doubts it will get played again this tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what happened between Presto and Roll The Bones, but something did. They aged fifteen years in two and were never the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lorraine Posted March 18, 2015 Author Share Posted March 18, 2015 I'm getting the impression that your vote, LABT, in this Territories poll was One of the worst songs Rush ever did! Silly me! Why bother guessing? I made the votes public. I'll just go look. :laughing yellow guy: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the worst songs Rush has ever done not on S&A or Presto would have been more accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexMike Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 I LIKE "Territories". Not sure about love. I feel it's fair to say that starting with "Signals", Rush became slightly more about style than substance. But man, what style! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was trying very hard to rock out to the over abundance of PoW material on the CA tour set 1. The crowds just wouldn't go for it. Ambien salesmen reported their largest quarter to date that year. But....Territories....Love It! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GabesCavesOfIce Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 Gutsy lyric closing out the song, wow, did he really say that?

WorkingAllTheTime Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 It is one of my favorites from that era. I won't apologize for it! For my money, it's one of Neil's "smarter" songs and has one of my favorite lines: Better people. Better food. Better beer.Why move around the world when Eden was so near?
