CaressMySteel Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 (edited) Now that everyone likely has had a gander at the tour book spoilers, what are your thoughts about some of the notable songs that weren't included? The big ones to me are Xanadu, Limelight, Freewill, La Villa Strangiato, The Trees, Working Man and In the Mood. Of these which do you think are most likely to be included this tour? I added a poll on this topic. Any others you were surprised weren't included on the tour book spoiler? Edited May 6, 2015 by CaressMySteel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well considering the tubular bells are shown in that picture of Neil from the tour book, I would say it would have to be Xanadu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bard Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 La Villa will be there. So will Limelight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snaked Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 In the Mood- No chance. IMO Why not? If they're thinking chronological then ITM makes perfect sense since it was their closing song for many years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J2112YYZ Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Just because they weren't in the tour book doesn't mean that they won't be playing it. That just means they don't have a video for the song. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It Makes sense, I think Working Man is the 'Rush' song Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That just means they don't have a video for the song.Exactly. That's why I asked which one of the notable songs left off the spoiler list would be included. I'm 99.9% sure, some of these songs will be played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtpoet Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 In the Mood- No chance. IMO Why not? If they're thinking chronological then ITM makes perfect sense since it was their closing song for many years. The answer to that ? Is if you think 2112 closed the 2nd set or is the encore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

micgtr71 Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 I think it would be interesting if none of the songs from the tour book make it into the set.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtpoet Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 (edited) Just had a WILD thought. IF 2112 ends the 2nd set ANDThe set stays chronological THENThe encore has to open with;(A) something else from 2112 (PTB?) OR(B) something from COS So, if it is COS, WHAT IF the 2nd set opens, to start a medley, with Alex strumming the opening to FOL? After that they can break into other songs from COS, FBN, and RUSH ending with In The Mood. If this happens, I think we have found the crown jewel of gems so many seek.....

There are multiple songs with Tubular Bells in the current setlist spoilers: Closer, Cygnus-X1, Jacob's Ladder, The Camera Eye..... it's impossible he'll play all those AND leave out the most FAMOUs of them... Xanadu. :finbar: I'm predicting that The Camera Eye will probably be the intro/one verse/one chorus and the guitar solo (Like Signals), and Xanadu will probably be the same.... Can't wait!

Jaminbenb Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 (edited) In the Mood- No chance. IMO One article I read (it was linked here somewhere) was that the R40 "concept" is celebrating Neil's arrival into the band/recording of FBN (1975)... I would NOT be surprised if Rush (the album) was not represented! Edited May 6, 2015 by Jaminbenb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaressMySteel Posted May 7, 2015 Author Share Posted May 7, 2015 So, a lot of folks think Limelight, Xanadu and La Villa will be played. Add those songs to the rumored setlist and you've got a "greatest hits" tour of sorts. It might not be what some hardcore Rush fans want, but it would be a good setlist with some great Rush songs and a fitting arrangement for what the band has called their last major tour.
