Drummerrobin Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 So now we know the theme of the tour is the reverse timeline of the band, what would your ultimate reverse chronological setlist be? Here's mine: 1. Headlong Flight2. Armor and Sword3. Ghost Rider4. Resist5. Cut To The Chase6. Scars7. Prime Mover8. Open Secrets9. Marathon10. Kid Gloves11. The Weapon12. YYZ/ Drum Solo Intermission 13. Tom Sawyer14. Limelight15. Natural Science16. The Spirit Of Radio17. Jacob's Ladder18. La Villa Strangiato19. A Farewell To Kings20. Xanadu21. Closer To The Heart22. 2112 (Overture/ Temples Of Syrinx/ Grand Finale) Encores:23. Bastille Day24. Anthem25. Working Man Since Presto was missed out on the R30 tour, I figured it was Roll The Bones' turn this time. For me, this is as good as a backwards Rush setlist can get!

No Cygnus X-1, no Hemispheres, no thank you. Yeah it was a tough call with those songs. I don't dislike them by any means and I think they work great live. I would just take La Villa over Hemispheres Prelude and A Farewell to Kings over Cygnus X-1 by a hair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boston_E Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 To add a twist for this, I'm going to add the requirement that there be at least one song from each of their studio albums. It looks like they are playing 24 songs on this tour, so that is 20 songs (one from each studio album), plus 4 wildcards. 1. The Wreckers (Clockwork Angels)2. Far Cry (Snakes and Arrows)3. The Seeker (Feedback)4. Earthshine (Vapor Trails)5. Half The World (Test for Echo)6. Animate (Counterparts)7. Dreamline (Roll the Bones)8. Roll The Bones (Wildcard 1)9. The Pass (Presto)10. Mission (Hold Your Fire) Intermission 11. Manhattan Project (Power Windows)12. Red Sector A (Grace Under Pressure)13. Subdivisions (Signals)14. Tom Sawyer (Moving Pictures)15. YYZ (Wildcard 2)16. Limelight (Wildcard 3)17. The Spirit of Radio (Permanent Waves)18. Freewill (Wildcard 4)19. The Trees (Hemispheres)20. Closer To The Heart (Farewell to Kings)21. 2112 (2112) Encore 22. Lakeside Park (Caress Of Steel)23. Anthem (Fly By Night)24. Working Man (Rush) The hardest thing for me to eliminate here was Cyngus X1. Other notables that were tough for me to cut out was The Camera Eye, Bravado, Ghost of A Chance, Chain Lightening. This is a hard list to make… you can imagine what the band goes through!

A slow, soft song like Halo Effect in the second spot? Same with Losing It in the second set. Both are fine songs but talk about killing the mood right away. EDIT: The same goes for the poster who put The Garden second. Seriously? Let's rock for a few songs before you slow it down so much.

MSG C5 Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 First, I'm very excited to see this tour based on the current three set lists already performed. I plan to see them 2-3 times so I'm hoping to see at least two of the alternative set lists. I'm also happy that so far they haven't changed anything from Jacob's Ladder through the encore as I'm really looking forward to that stretch of songs. My only headscratcher was in Tulsa when they opened with "Clockwork Angels". I don't thing that song is a strong opener and IMO "Headlong Flight" is a better choice primarily due to the lyrics and how they fit perfectly into the a retrospective look back at their career and the reverse chronological format. With that, below is my dream setlist which is based on representation from every Rush studio album. It is a total of 28 songs, or one more than their show last night in Minnesota, so I know the boys could do it. Set 1: 1. Headlong Flight2. Far Cry3. One Little Victory4. Driven5. Animate6. Roll the Bones7. The Pass8. Time Stand Still9. Big Money10. Distant Early Warning11. Subdivisions12. YYZ13. Limelight Set 2: 14. Tom Sawyer15. Red Barchetta16. The Spirit of Radio17. Jacob's Ladder18. Cygnus X-1 Book II: Hemispheres Part I: Prelude19. Cygnus X-1 (Drum Solo)20. Closer to the Heart21. Xanadu22. 2112 Part I: Overture23. 2112 Part II: The Temples of Syrinx24. 2112 Part IV: Presentation25. 2112 Part VII: Grand Finale Encore: 26: Lakeside Park27: Anthem28: Working Man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like they are playing 24 songs on this tour, so that is 20 songs (one from each studio album), plus 4 wildcards. Thought I'd see if I could adjust my setlist to accommodate those rules.
