Hmmm, good list. 7 out of the ten songs from that top ten Rush songs that DTF did for Survivor were in the top 10 on this list from Classic Rock.

jjrock88 · « **Reply #1576 on:** June 12, 2015, 01:29:13 AM »

Very good list.

I'm trying to figure out the feasibility of seeing R40 with my friend.
So, shirking off financial worries as any irresponsible teen would, can anyone tell me roughly how long the shows last?

Nick · « **Reply #1578 on:** June 16, 2015, 10:33:45 PM »

With intermission it's about 3h I believe, 2h40m of music approx.

Grizz · « **Reply #1579 on:** June 17, 2015, 01:45:15 PM »

Great, thanks.
So that means the show ends around 10:30, leaving plenty of time to catch the train to Penn and then the train from Grand Central to New Haven.
And yes, I realize it's silly to take a train to a concert from the venue in which they'll be playing two days later. I think tickets for the Newark show are cheaper (haven't checked recently).

Six songs from the Atlantic Years and two of those six from Clockwork Angels.

Can't exactly say I agree with that, but the magazine is Classic Rock.

They are. I chose Newark first because Saturday night we're going to make a day of it.

Still trying to get cheap Philly tickets. I was going to go to MSG too (solo), but I may have to reevaluate that. I hate to miss Rush at Madison Square Garden, but I don't want to deal with the insane markup to do it. Still thinking about finding a cheap ticket at the door, but we'll see.

Probably a little more than 3 hours. Both Toronto shows were billed as 8pm start. Both started and ended late. We didn't walk out of the arena until 11:20.

Grizz · « **Reply #1583 on:** June 21, 2015, 05:23:50 PM »

Current prices on TicketBastard are at least $200 a pop (for a pair of adjacent seats). Anyone have a suggestion for a cheaper source?

If I recall correctly, it was played, briefly, in the end-of-show medley for the Moving Pictures Tour. Without looking it up, it may or may not have also carried over into the Signals Warm-up Tour, which featured a similar set.

Last time in full was headlining gigs only during the All The World's A Stage Tour.

It's my favorite pre 2112 Rush tune. Wish they thought of it as much as I do.

KevShmev · « **Reply #1590 on:** June 30, 2015, 06:25:02 PM »

In the End is a good song, but I've never really thought it was as great as some do, including some friends of mine who always tell me I am nuts when I say, "This is a good song, but not essential Rush." *shrugs*

TAC · « **Reply #1591 on:** June 30, 2015, 06:31:43 PM »

I wouldn't call it essential Rush either, but I do like it.
The All The World's A Stage version is great though.

Don't shrug at me, Kev!

It's my favorite song from Fly By Night by far and I really love the version on All The World's A Stage.

Anguyen92 · « **Reply #1593 on:** August 09, 2015, 06:09:04 PM »

Well, watching the Clockwork Angels Tour on Palladia atm. The time slot is only two hours long. This version skipped the whole 1st set and started right away with Caravan with the strings players. I know I have the DVD and all, but I'm a little peeved at this. That is all.

Why get upset? They never show full shows.

So I was checking out some Ayreon vocalists and bumped onto an acoustic online set by Mike Mills, which features a Farewell to Kings (song) cover.

I love stuff like this and since this board really loves Rush, I thought some of you might enjoy this cover. His voice really fits early Rush music.

Cover is at 24m52s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l4jMqoIZgag#t=24m52s

A guy called Tony Reed has recorded covers of early metal songs, and his compilation includes a version of Garden Road: https://metalhammer.teamrock.com/features/2015-09-22/the-man-whos-rerecording-the-history-of-heavy-rock-mos-generator-tony-reed

Obviously he doesn't have Geddy's vocal range, but I like his modern take on the song.

That is an amazing cover. Wow. His vocals are amazing! His cover of Iron Maiden's 'Stranger in a Strange Land' is really good as well.

The rap video portion was cool with the celebrities. Other than that I"ve always though it was sort of a sterile song in concert. I like it on the album but not as much in concert.

I see that there's a lot of options on which type of package to choose from. For those that do not have blu-ray, which options would be best to get all the songs and as much live footage as possible? Looks to me that the 3-Disc CD/DVD combo is probably my best bet.

Ben_Jamin · « **Reply #1607 on:** October 08, 2015, 11:41:46 AM »

Awww...No video of Clockwork Angels or The Wreckers.

Looking ahead to the rumored recording of the Toronto shows, they'll be playing the B and C setlists (if they continue their pattern), and of the two, I'm willing to bet that the MAIN show will be the C set, which includes 3 songs from PEW and 3 songs from HEMI, and is the longer of the 3 sets. With that in mind, I'm hoping they release the B set-only songs as bonus tracks on the DVD and CD sets, and I figured the 3CD set will look something like this...

Disc 1 ~ 60-65 mins (1st Set)
1. The Anarchist
2. Clockwork Angels
3. Headling Flight (w/Drumbastica)
4. Far Cry
5. The Main Monkey Business
6. One Little Victory
7. Animate
8. Roll The Bones
9. Distant Early Warning
10. Subdivisions
11. Losing It (Maybe? Here or before Subdivisions, or in place of...)

Disc 2 ~ 74 mins (2nd Set)
1. Tom Sawyer
2. YYZ
3. The Spirit Of Radio
4. Natural Science
5. Jacob's Ladder
6. Cygnus X-1, Book 2: Hemispheres (Prelude)
7. Cygnux X-1, Book 1: The Voyage (Prologue, Drum Solo, 3)
8. Closer To The Heart
9. Xanadu
10. 2112 (Overture, The Temples Of Syrinx, Presentation, Grand Finale)

Disc 3 ~ 44-50 mins (Encore & Bonus Tracks)
1. Lakeside Park
2. Anthem
3. What You're Doing
4. Working Man (w/Garden Road teaser)
5. The Wreckers
6. How It Is
7. Between The Wheels
8. The Camera Eye
9. Red Barchetta (Maybe?)

The first and 2nd discs could be a little longer if they perform "Losing It" and include the Set A-only track "Red Barchetta" (although no big loss if RB isn't included).

Either way, it would be AMAZING if they released all 30 of these songs on the eventual live album.

-Marc.

That was my post from way back on May 30th earlier this year. Here's the actual set list for the 3CD set:

CD TRACKLIST:

Disc One
The World is .. The World is ...
The Anarchist
Headlong Flight
Far Cry
The Main Monkey Business
How It Is
Animate
Roll the Bones
Between the Wheels
Losing It (with Ben Mink)
Subdivisions

Disc Two
Tom Sawyer
YYZ
The Spirit of Radio
Natural Science
Jacob’s Ladder
Hemispheres: Prelude
Cygnus X-1/The Story So Far (drum solo)
Closer to the Heart
Xanadu
2112

Disc Three
Mel’s Rockpile (with Eugene Levy)
Lakeside Park/Anthem
What You’re Doing/Working Man
Bonus
One Little Victory
Distant Early Warning
Red Barchetta
Clockwork Angels
The Wreckers
The Camera Eye
Losing It (with Jonathan Dinklage)

All 30 songs I predicted back before the shows even happened, plus an alternate version of "Losing It" as an added bonus!!! Cannot believe how closely I predicted this release! Awesome set list with some amazing songs on it, especially that second CD. The third disc is pretty amazing, too, especially with SEVEN bonus tracks from alternate nights of the tour!!!

Going for the 3CD/BD/T-Shirt set, definitely. November is going to suck me dry between this, Spock's Beard's compilation and the new Flying Colors live album. My poor poor wallet...

-Marc.
