It's 1:00am, we're in Columbus...

The Rush concert in Columbus was simply awesome. Much fun was had driving through miles of cornfield and Buckeye wilderness to reach our destination. The set list was as follows:

Set 1:
Limelight
Digital Man
Entre Nous
Mission
Freewill
The Main Monkey Business
The Larger Bowl (Bob & Doug video intro)
Secret Touch
Circumstances
Between The Wheels
Dreamline

Intermission

Set 2:
Far Cry
Workin' Them Angels
Armor And Sword
Spindrift
The Way The Wind Blows
Subdivisions
Natural Science
Witch Hunt
Malignant Narcissism
Drum Solo
Hope
Summertime Blues
The Spirit Of Radio
Tom Sawyer (South Park video intro)

Encore:
One Little Victory
A Passage to Bangkok
YYZ

After two stops at Wendy's, two detours (one due to a horrible car vs. pedestrian accident, the other a flipped semi), and a couple hundred miles on the Prius' odometer, we finally got home at 3:30am on Monday. The show featured new material more than any previous Rush show I've seen and the older stuff was great to see live. There's rumor of a KY show in April. If so, I'm there.

Hit it.

'Twas 3:36am, dammit! And I was up before 7:00 for baseball practice. You can bet those boys were running that morning!

I heard a similar rumor on Sirius this morning that Rush is considering a spring tour that will swing through the southeast.

I'm there with you!
