My Dream Setlist For 2010 RUSH Time Machine Tour

RUSH 2010 Time Machine Tour

I have seen one of my favorite bands, RUSH almost from the beginning. My first concert in 1975 was RUSH warming up KISS at the San Diego Sports Arena. This concert tour was in support of the first RUSH album (Fly By Night) with new drummer Neil Peart, I have seen almost every tour since.

RUSH is celebrating the 30th anniversary of the release of ‘Moving Pictures‘ by playing it in it’s entirety on their 2010 Time Machine Tour along with two new songs to be released soon, ‘Caravan‘ and ‘BU2B‘ and it made me think, what else would I like to see them play. Well below is my RUSH 2010 Time Machine Tour dream set list. What’s yours?

Xanadu (A Farewell To Kings)
Anthem (Fly By Night)
Marathon (Power Windows)
The Analog Kid (Signals)
Something For Nothing (2112)
Earthshine (Vapor Trails)
Natural Science (Permanent Waves)
Distant Early Warning (Grace Under Pressure)
