    This is so true especially in my case cause I'm way up there in my age bracket. 8-)

    They didn't, they haven't played Jacobs Ladder since Moving Pictures "Warm Up Tour" and actually didn't play it after for the actual Moving Pictures Tour.

    It is believed the setlist remained the same throughout this tour.

    2112 (Overture/Temples of Syrinx)
    Freewill
    By-Tor and the Snow Dog (abbreviated)->
    Xanadu
    Limelight (early version, different introduction)
    The Trees
    Hemispheres (Prelude)
    The Spirit of Radio
    Closer To The Heart
    Beneath, Between and Behind
    Tom Sawyer (early version, different second verse)
    Jacob's Ladder
    A Passage to Bangkok
    Natural Science
    Working Man (reggae intro)
    Finding My Way
    Anthem
    Bastille Day
    In The Mood
    Drum Solo
    Encore: La Villa Strangiato

    Rush were my obsession from the first time I saw them in 1978 up until the Grace Under Pressure album in 1984. I fell out of love with them when the keyboards started to dominate their sound


    +1
    I was the biggest Rush fan ever until the keyboards took over. Before that, I had never heard such a sound coming from three people. Neil Peart is still a god in my eyes. I can still put on Fly By Night, 2112, or A Farewell to Kings and be in complete bliss.
    It's nice to be nice to the nice.

    Well, now I can see Rush every time they tour for the rest of my life. Last night in Concord, CA, during 2112, Alex walked over to my wife, stood on a speaker, waited for her to get her hands ready, and then reached down and gave her his pick -- DURING 2112.

    So yep, I can pretty much go to any Rush show I want to now!

    from the YouTube clips, it looks like Neil is finally having fun on tour and not as stoic as he was during the snakes and arrows tour...
    I realize he has suffered the loss if his wife and daughter back then ..


    loved seeing neils "stick play/ stick tosses" are back in his stage presence!

    long live rush!

    Snakes and Arrows was a few tours after the tragedies actually. Not to go into details but that all happened in 97 and 98. Their first tour back was 2002 (Vapor Trails album) and the Snakes & Arrows tour was in 2007.

    Also don't forget RUSH had the 2005 R30 World Tour which was captured live in Germany on DVD. Love Neil's drum kit for that tour...the gold trim was just too pretty emblazed with the logos from all the other albums.

    What a great show last night! Probably get flamed for this but Pearl Jam could learn a thing or two from these guys. No opening act and 3+ hours of Rush!

    So, I know this might be kind of a silly request, but if anyone can help, it'd be the lovely Jammers here... My sister and I have been huge fans of Rush for years, and see them together everytime they hit up the Gorge. Long story short, her birthday is coming up, and I would like to get her an old Rush handbill and frame it. Problem is, I can only seem to find the reproductions. Anyone have any ideas where I could get my hands on A real
    one?

    I might be a bit old school but what exactly is a handbill? I posed the question on the Rush forum and I'm awaiting an answer.

    Handbills were advertisments bands used to produce in the 60's, 70's and 80's. They were fairly small, average being around 4.5" x 9". They were distributed to promote concerts and tons of them were made. Not too many bands do them nowadays, but you can walk down the Strip in Vegas and get tons of them :twisted: ...just not for concerts. In any case, I can find glossy reproductions, but I'd really love to be able to get ahold of an original. I've been striking out though, probably because they were ads, and no one really keeps them for 30 years, haha.

    Gotcha...I know what they are now. I have one of them signed by my friend Michael Franti to my daughter. Yes they seem to be hard to find is what I'm hearing from the Rush forum too after so many years. However give it some time someone will post something that can help.
