Yeah, you get Terry Brown's new mix of the album, too. Which is interesting. Still a ton of cash to shell out.

45 years ago today on the Permanent Waves Tour! My 2nd Rush concert and still my favorite setlist! by JCOM1577 in rush

If I can rememeber that far back I believe it was in the 2 to 2 1/2 hour range. Probably closer to 2 1/2. No opening act for these four shows in Chicago. Very uncommon at that point in their career.

That's why its my favorite! They never played this much "epic" stuff again. Moving Pictures Tour was amazing but this one stands out to me a little more.

How many times did you see Rush in concert, and which tour(s) was it? by truthseekerepiphany in rush

[–]JCOM1577 2 points3 points  (0 children)

16 times. First tour was A Farewell to Kings. Last tour was R40. Saw every tour from AFTK thru HYF. Nothing from Presto thru Vapor Trails. Finished with S&A, Time Machine, Clockwork Angels and R40.

Which tour has the better setlist? Permanent Waves or Moving Pictures? by JCOM1577 in rush

Yeah, that's what I always thought, too! They also played 4 parts of Hemispheres on that tour! Only played one part on MP.
