x1yyz Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 I just looked at the setlist for the MP tour. There are ten or eleven songs in common with R40 (although all are not played every night this tour). Although I would miss Beneath, Between, & Behind (which I love) I would take the R40 tour over the MP tour. And I'll take it from the first row, not the sixth :P 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gudbuytjane Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 Truthfully, I'd take the PW setlist over MP any day. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bill1971 Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 I'd take this tour. Best of both world, plus I'd miss Jacobs Ladder and Cygnus.

losingit2k Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 This Tour! Specially the CA Stuff and Subdivsion and Distant Early Warning are two of my favorites. I just love the first set which would not even exist in the MP tour. Is it Perfect no, But Neither was the MP Tour. Jacobs Ladder is the defining song. Give me the best of both worlds. R40 all the way. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rush85dude Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Moving Pictures tour though I'd love to go back to T4E tour. Now that was utterly epic as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClassicB Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 MP '81 any day! Seeing RUSH at their peak. When they played every concert like it was there last! The days when they played all REAL instruments, none of this sampled crap nowadays. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod in Toronto Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 MP 81 is the tightest they have ever been. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WIDE-ANGLE WATCHER Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Back for the MP Tour I spent the night outside the local record store, The Wherehouse I believe, and bought 10 tickets. I got 9th row, 10 seats in a row. Myself and nine friends had the time of our lives (the magic mushrooms may have helped)....We were teenagers, all in a Rush nerd group. Seeing The Camera Eye was an 'out of body experience'...we were young and alive and on top of the world.You can never take that day away....If I could live it all again...

Lorraine Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Moving Pictures without a doubt. Rush at the height of their talent and good looks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To my taste. Undoubtedly, other women will disagree, but to me - Geddy looked his most handsome and Neil's face was absolutely classic and Alex was...well...Alex. :) Only a lot thinner.

geezer Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 I'd take MP after all, but nothing to argue about R40 setlist. Not intrigued by their looks, but I'd welcome the 1981 beer price! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CountFloyd84 Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Having only seen them once live, I would gladly take anything. However, IF I could go back to the Moving Pictures tour, I would absolutely do it in a heart beat just to experience the band at their peak.
