J2112YYZ Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 I wouldn't care if they dropped it from the set but i'm not sick of it. Tom Sawyer is the one big hit i'm tired of. The last four times i've seen them, I had no reaction to the song at all. This includes seeing them do it from the front row on the TMT. Everyone loves Subdivisions. I doubt there's ever been a show where the song didn't get a great reaction. People can really relate to those lyrics. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shabadoo25 Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 No. However, I've been sick of Red Sector A for awhile. It sucked they brought it back last tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WorkingAllTheTime Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Subdivisions got a huge response in Dallas. I’d pay to hear them play Chopsticks. And in Austin. It was basically a sing along in Austin. Nearly the same on the floor in Dallas. It's one of a handful of songs they probably feel "obligated" to play (Tom Sawyer, Parts I and II of 2112, being the others). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew the set lists for the two shows I attended in Texas. I knew they would open Set 2 with Tom Sawyer. I watched the intro video and then made my way for my bathroom break when Tom Sawyer started. So, yeah, I skipped out on TS because I have seen it live so many times it was okay for me to miss... and I didn't actually have to wait in line to take a piss. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tombstone Mountain Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Yes, great song. Most fans seem to like it, yet crowd always seems to snooze through it live.True. I noticed it seemed to entrance people....the vibe is so powerful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disembodied Spirit Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Closer to the Heart is worn on me live. But I get why they play it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tombstone Mountain Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Any song they play now, is just a grain in the hourglass going down the pike. Treasure each song 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grasbo Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 I love Subdivisions but then again i haven't been to a Rush concert because i live Downunder so they can play any song they like.But i must admit that i tend to skip Tom Sawyer and Spirit on my dvds.Looking forward to Xanadu when the dvd comes out.

JohnRogers Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 I expect subdivisions as much as Huckleberry Finn, I wouldn't want it any other way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bathory Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 great part of the set. it's not 100% necessary but it's always good to hear. better an "overplayed" classic where the only downside is "normal people like it!" than a boring song 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DistantEarlySignals Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 I am not sick of it at all. What I'm sick of is 2112 and YYZ. Maybe just the Overture from 2112, but I'd rather see Something For Nothing or Bankok.... I would be fine if they excluded it to play something else from Signals like Countdown, Chemistry, The Weapon, etc.And please - The Main Monkey Business is the most boring song they have ever done. If they are doing instrumentals, how about Leave That Thing alone or La Villa. I really loved Where's My Thing on the last tour though. Wouldn't mind seeing that again!

GorillaStrangiato Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 Subdivisions would always be on my dream setlist. Maybe my favorite song ever by them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rugen Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 I am sick of Limelight, probably the guys also for this tour anyway, or at least Geddy and Neil, beause i think it's one of the favorites of Alex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DistantEarlySignals Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 I'm sick of - Tom SawyerYYZ2112 Red Sector A was so overplayed, although I do say it's great live. Better songs from GUP though. I wish they'd play Kid Gloves instead of Between The Wheels on this tour. I think they would get a great response if they did The Enemy Within or Countdown live. I still love seeing TSOR live though. Never gets old............ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleMoon Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 YYZ is a great song, but it's definitely been way overplayed live. Same with Limelight, Tom Sawyer and TSOR. I get that people want to hear the hits, but geeeeze. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HemiBeers Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 I'm kind of meh about it. The lyrics are great, right on the mark. Musically it's nothing special. I was able to figure out the keyboards in about 20 minutes on my wife's keyboard...so yeah not too tricky. I also don't like the song for making Al basically disappear until the solo. I've also heard enough of Limelight and CTTH for a lifetime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnRogers Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 Set aside the fact it is such a great song. No Rush tour should be done skipping The Spirit of Radio, "concert hall" with the lights shining on the crowd as we get all jacked is our tradition. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
