Rush performs their 1980 album Moving Pictures in its entirety on their 2010 Time Machine Tour.
That is: Tom Sawyer, Red Barchetta, YYZ, Limelight, The Camera Eye, Witch Hunt, and Vital Signs.
I saw that original tour in the fall of 1980 at the "old spectrum" in Philly. I am currently blaming my loss of hearing on them specifically. Really. I remember the best seats were in sections G,S,H &T Great seats, Hot Tickets... Stayed in line all night to get them....
Anyway I remember sitting in section H, right in front of this HUGE ASS WALL of speakers.
RUSH was/were absolutely amazing and I was deaf for a long time afterward. Much worse than any of the other concerts I had been to.
And as one who toured with the dead for a bit and followed a few other bands... W.O.W. They were a special show to see.

Thanks for bringing back a few memories...
