Seems they keep adding tour dates. I've been reading old tourbooks and articles, plus listening to all the recent inverviews of course. Geddy is in full steam ahead mode and Alex seems to be about as fully on board as he gets too. One thing that I've really taken away is that as much as Rush...

It's interesting the people who go oh Geddy is using a falsetto. It was never part of his natural range, that's one of the reasons they backed away from that format after Hemispheres. I remember around the time of Test For Echo I think there being reports that Geddy was taking voice lessons...

Fantastic. Alex is still able to play, Geddy is still able to sing, Anika isn't 100% there on the styleometer, but looks to be having a good time and will warm up over the course of the tour. She's already performing the music at a more than acceptable level to me. As far as how far is too...

Loge 6 is mid-center then. It sounds really good.

Another from Time Machine: 2010-08-13 - Irvine (Digital Audience Master) The first couple songs have a bit of mic futzing but from there on the sound quality is excellent and Geddy is super loose in this show. The taper must have been front and center.

Ok, sticking to the original format, my "Speculation" list is informed by various online articles listing Geddy, Alex, and Neil's favorite Rush songs (note that Geddy included Grace to Grace in his list of favorite Rush songs, which I feel gives me leeway to include songs from the solo albums...

There's at least one more multisource scanner/audience matrix show from R40: Kansas City 2015-07-09. This one was a Xavel commercial boot but it is circulating freely on Dime. The 2015-06-08 Columbus recording "Frozen In An Everlasting View" from ninjadave is a really good single source...

Ok I did it faster than I thought. It turns out 40 songs is really restrictive if you want to rotate that much of your setlist every night. By the time you knock out the favorites and more recent material, there's not a lot of room for my personal favorite stuff. I feel like Moving Pictures is...

They've also mentioned that ~40% of the nightly setlist will rotate over the five night cycle, and Geddy confirmed two one hour sets per recent tours (total 2:15 with encore). So that's almost an entire set changing every night. Based on recent tours that would be up to ten songs, which doesn't...

There was an interview yesterday that managed to have some interesting points. They say Anika is comfortable with about 25 of 40 songs at this point, and they named the keyboardist who will be accompanying them on tour, Loren Gold, who seems to be quite experienced. I'm unreasonably excited...
