default236 Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 That set was so amazing I'm almost in disbelief they'll be playing it more than once! I swear this could've been Rush's last show ever and I would've beyond satisfied. Hopefully I can make a show this tour! :cheers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calirush Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 I'm speechless. July in San Jose will seem like forever now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctbadger Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 No Caravan…that's a surprise. Ah, well. Full Xanadu with double necks more than makes up for it. no limelight is really a surprise. but i'm ok with that. I've had enough of Limelight for a lifetime. No YYZ either which was a surprise to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod in Toronto Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 I followed it from start to finish, and boy, did they sound sharp!!! A lot of songs had a faster pace than in previous tours, Neil's drums are as crisp as can be, Alex is shredding incredibly, and Ged's voice held up quite well. Don't miss this tour if you can!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HemiBeers Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 Yep. Test For Echo's gonna be the only album that I've yet to hear one song from, live unless they do a song swap with a song from there. no hold your fire or power windows...at least not in version A of setlist. I'm more than ok with that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cygnus The God Of Balance Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 The wreckers is probably an alternate with headlong flightEither that or it's an alternate with The Anarchist. I'm hoping it's The Anarchist it's being swapped with tbh.I agree. I think HF will be played each night. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cygnus The God Of Balance Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 So I had planned to be in here last night, but....oh well. Awesome set list, and I love how they are going backwards chronologically in the setlist. Gonna be fun to see what surprises (if any) in the set list tomorrow. I hope the second half stays the same.

vital signz Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 I think there will be two encores........maybe rotated with each other???? God I hope not!!!!!!!!!! I saw something yesterday after the show on setlist.fm where there was something listed called Encore 2 and a few songs including The Trees. There were 4 songs total there and for the life of me I cannot find the link in my history. I think it was accidentally posted and then taken down. Did anyone else see that??????

Yep...great chat last night too, it was good to follow the show with others who know and love the band as much as me. I was surprised with the periscope thing. As good as it gets for me on this tour, unfortunately. If they came to Rio this time they'd make a fortune!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would prefer carnies if they are going to alternate a CA song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it will be a second encore for real---after the first encore--on nights they have more energy left in their tanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HemiBeers Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 Based on the set list last night, there's only about 5 song choices that even the most critical 'fan' would complain about. If Setlist B is strong as well, I'm seriously gonna add more shows even if they're cheap seats. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HemiBeers Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 Random thought...Power Windows, Hold Your fire and Test for Echo were not on Setlist A. I'm wondering if a song from each of those would be on Setlist B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truly a masterpiece last nite I woke up this morning shaken, and trembling in Tears Many thanks to Russell and Lucas for streaming on periscope. Only fear is Jacob being rotated out, let's hope not.

PolarizeMe Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 Man, still got the chills from last night. I think I'm actually gonna refrain myself from taking any pictures or videos when I see them so I can enjoy the show as much as I can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
