Setlist #2 > setlist #1

Yes, prefer #2. Maybe #3 will be the winner. I suppose running orders have to be in set patterns to suit work which happens in the background, so the set lists can't be further randomly shuffled.

Annika doing her take on Anthem, less angular, more fluent, especially in the intro. Very tight musically though.

OK, so there are 4 songs left to play to reach all rehearsed songs. A photo f the rehearsal sheet was posted elsewhere and even though this is a spoiler topic, I still thought not to spoil it. So you can see it, if you want.
If not, don't look and find out from the next setlist.

EDIT: It is 5 songs, so one more

Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.

I sense also the songs are back to their correct tempo, TAK was really driven whereas the last few tours the songs seemed slower, or maybe it's just me.

It's not you, they pushed some of them up. They sound a bit less 'bulky', but also less heavy because of that. A different drumstyle will do that. Technique vs hard hitting.

I wish they'd drop YYZ. I'm just tired of it. All the YouTube bass wannabes have worn it out and I only tolerate it now for Geddy's brief solo snippets.

[Slim]

Alex playing an Epiphone. By the way Geddy's voice is awful on this.

But why's he got the neck pickup installed the wrong way round? Has a 'Greeny' mod been applied to it?

Don't know why on the pickup but I suppose this is just promotion for his new Epiphone ES-355 1976 Reissue Signature released this week. Going for £1199 at the moment. I'll hold off just now but might weaken if the price drops later. If I do then I'll move on my Epiphone Dot Royale which was the only white lookalike I could find at the time at a reasonable price.

I thought Geddy might have used his new Rickenbacker for this. I haven't seen it yet.

I thought Geddy's voice was poor on Bravado too, first night anyway.

I was watching a mobile recording of the first night and I realise that's not the best way in which to judge these things but I thought the vocals were a little high in the mix and so didn't flatter Geddy. The backing vocals from Loren Gold sound a little odd too. However, the level of the vocals may well have been due to the video being recorded high up on Geddy's side, may be more balanced elsewhere in the arena(?).

It's a sign of the times that the whole show is available to watch more or less immediately after the house lights go up - mixed feelings on that.
