I could've swore I read somewhere That Alex was having arthritis issues with his hands and is very hard for him to play anymore..........I'm pretty sure. I think.............?

It's Peart having the issues. Lee and Lifeson want to keep touring but Peart isn't physically able according to an interview I read with Lifeson...

Oh, OK.

Damn, that's sad.

Thanks, trick.

Yes Alex does have arthritis but it is Peart who is as usual being the stick in the mud, even back in the 80s he didn't like touring. He likes the home life and spending time with his daughter.

Did they play La Villa Strangiato? My fav...........

Actually they did not, here is a nice website and if you click on each city it will tell you the setlist.
http://www.rush.com/tour/rush40-tour/

They had pretty much the same setlist for each city but there were 3-4 songs that were rotated in/out depending on where they played. The songs were the Camera Eye, Natural Science, YYZ and Red Barchetta.

Yah, I read Neil has Tendonitis and Alex Arthritis after I talked with trick.

Even Alex at this point is seriously contemplating touring.

I didn't know Neil had another daughter..............

Sure did... pretty much most of the Hemispheres album. It was nice to her the early stuff...


Here is the set list from Austin.

The Anarchist
The Wreckers
Headlong Flight
Far Cry
The Main Monkey Business
How It Is
Animate
Roll The Bones
Between The Wheels
Subdivisions

Set 2

Tom Sawyer
The Camera Eye
The Spirit of Radio
Jacob's Ladder
Cygnus X-1 Book Two: Hemispheres - Prelude
Cygnus X-1 Book One - The Voyage: Part 1
Drum Solo
Cygnus X-1 Book One - The Voyage: Part 3
Closer To The Heart
Xanadu
2112 Overture/The Temples of Syrinx/Presentation/Grand Finale

Encore

Lakeside Park
Anthem

Sadly, La Villa wasn't played on this tour which is a shame because it usually is a staple for their setlists. Maybe it was Cygnus Book 2 you were thinking of, they did play that as well as Cygnus Book 1 back to back as an instrumental with no vocals.

Neil Peart's got arthritis. According to Geddy Lee Rush is pretty much done as a road band but may do some studio stuff.
