YAJ2112 Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 They play the full version of Lakeside Park? I'll set the over/under at 38%. Hopefully Periscope will have the answers for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goose Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 (edited) I'll take the over. Douche move if they don't. ETA: Although 33% would be one douche of three. Edited May 22, 2015 by goose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ancient Ways Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Won't need periscope myself as I will be there, oh yeah. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mandydog Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 (edited) And they could give everyone a small bag of sand that you could pour on your seat to sit in and then of course Howard could give a fireworks display! :D Edited May 22, 2015 by mandydog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cygnify Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 I will be there as well! :dweez: :7up: :rush: :haz: :Alex: :Neil: :geddy: I was really hoping that they would extend Lakeside a little bit to include the line "Everyone would gather, on the 24th of May" It would only make sense - if there's any day to do it - that will be it! However, I know that Rush can be pretty rigid when it comes to their show - even when they are alternating 3 setlists, to extend the song to play a part that they have not been playing - doesn't seem in their nature. Unfortunately, seems unlikely to me. :| (Not to say that I won't be enjoying the hell out of the show regardless!!!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D3strukt Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Will be there. Will be hoping for that, but ya know what you gonna do? I mean there's a chance that they might add a bit of beginning song banter about May 24th. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bordercollie Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 0%. At my first show, not knowing anything about what they typically played in concert yet, I was ticked they didn't play Lakeside Park on May 24, 1997! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bill1971 Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 0%. They would have sound checked it by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zac2112 Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 Great thread! I still cant believe they are playing ANY part of LP, Geddy is on record saying he doesn't like the song. I couldn't be happier, its in the top 5 favs for me. The whole encore is EPIC. I hope they blow off some indoor fireworks during the song!!

gudbuytjane Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 (edited) Oddly, due to the way the holiday is set, Victoria Day (what he's referring to as the 24th of May) was this past Monday up here. OK, according to Wikipedia it's always celebrated on the last Monday before May 25. So usually that long weekend has the 24th at some point, but this year was an early anomaly. I grew up in Ontario in the 70's pronunciation pro-tip: To get that "actually hanging out at Lakeside Park in Port Dalhousie, Ontario" effect, when discussing it in conversation you'd call the weekend "May Two Four." "Two four" was also the common term for a 24-pack of beer, something you'd want to procure before sitting in the sand watching the fireworks display. ;) Edited May 23, 2015 by gudbuytjane 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amalignantfarcry Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 Zero chance. They aren't touching that encore one bit. I bet they don't even realize that tomorrow and the lyrics they ridiculously leave out are coinciding. They are literally about 1 minute shy of playing the whole song and they just switch to Anthem. I do not understand it. Just like I don't understand the need to wreck the beautiful ending in Xanadu with a sudden crash ending. Makes. No. Sense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amalignantfarcry Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 I'd like to add that I think What You're Doing should be dropped for Before and After or In The Mood. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GabesCavesOfIce Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Its usually tough for them to change a song mid tour with the lights and background sounds. Better chance they stop song completely right before Anthem and Ged leads the crowd with a capella version of 24th of May verse ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocket ignites Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 I say nothing changes...they're probably locked in set-list wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
