Notes:

Final show of the R40 North American 2015 tour.

This was my 18th Rush show and I really loved this one. Geddy put a lot more into his vocals than I've heard

in quite some time, which was great to hear--especially during his higher register moments in everything from

"Headlong Flight" to "Lakeside Park." And I can't believe how amazing Alex keeps on getting (his solo in "Working

Man" was a jaw-dropper). The ending of the show was very touching, what with Peart actually coming out from

behind his kit and standing with Geddy and Alex (besides shocking Geddy, you can faintly hear Peart say "goodbye"

before taking his leave). And while I wish Geddy's farewells would have been a little more detailed in terms

of how significant this show was in the band's history, it was still an emotional moment to witness and I truly

hope this is not the end of the band's live performances.

I haven't been to the Forum since the last time Rush played there way back on the Test For Echo tour in 1996,

so it was fitting that Rush would be the band to get me back into that venue. The Forum is also the place where

I first saw Rush, since this used to be the main Los Angeles venue they played for most of the 80s and 90s. As

a result, I have a lot of sentimentality for this place despite its perpetually sketchy location. Some of the

major differences I noticed in today's era of the "Fabulous" Forum is that even though the restrooms still remind

me of the ones depicted in the film Get Crazy, they now seem to be barely lit (I guess we don't need to see what

we're doing in there). Also, the planes that fly overhead to/fro LAX no longer emit a residue that bathes you

while standing outside. So that made for a pleasant time on the exterior terrace, which has been turned into a

lounging-type area where one could people watch--something I found enjoyable due to the various types of Rush

shirts people wore. It was like the history of Rush shirts in one location (Test For Echo seemed to be the most

popular). It was also interesting watching men and women (!) change into their newly purchased R40 designs right

there at the merch table. And while some of those moments were disturbing, it was nice to see such an immediate

love for the band. That affection extended into the seating area, where people carried banners and had signs at

the ready for their moment on camera later on in the show. I hadn't seen Rush in an large, indoor venue in quite

some time, so it was a welcome reminder of how arena shows can actually be fun when the majority of the crowd are

fellow obsessives.

I wasn't completely successful at avoiding spoilers on this tour, but I was surprised and equally fascinated by

the setlist structure in how it was a chronological time travel from their most recent music all the way to the

beginning--not only in terms of songs, but also in the set design as it recreated stage set-ups from previous

tours (the crew's constant changing of the amps, cabs, kits and even the props was quite impressive). For me,

it was really great hearing songs like "Losing It" (with special guest Jonathan Dinklage from the Clockwork Angels

String Ensemble), "Animate" and "Cygnus X-1." But the fantastic thing was that this show featured my two most

favorite Rush songs ever: "Xanadu" and "Jacob's Ladder." It's been decades since I last saw those songs performed

live and I'm so thankful the band included them in the R40 repertoire. And the entire encore concept still makes

me laugh, what with the Eugene Levy intro, the backdrop, Geddy's dialogue and the dancing KISS standee.

As for sound, I was seated at the opposite end of the arena in what was once known as the Loge (the lower bowl),

so there is an inevitable echo from being that far away. There is also phasing throughout. The worst phasing is

at the beginning of "The Anarchist" when we all stood up and a bit later into the same song when the people to

my right showed up. People passed in front of me again in the early part of "Headlong Flight" and there's more

phasing at the beginning of "Tom Sawyer" due to us all standing up again for the second set. There is some really

bad (but brief) phasing in "2112" because I dropped my poster into the aisle. Fortunately it didn't land in the

puddle of unknown liquid in the row in front of me, but I had to bend down to retrieve the tube (many thanks to

the man in the chair in front of me for handing it to me). The polka outro song also has some bad phasing because

I and the people around me moved a great deal, plus there's a lot of talking. I considered fading it out early,

but I thought that would be worse in terms of not having a truly complete show.

The man to my right was the loudest person around me to talk. He's heard during "Headlong Flight," "The Main

Monkey Business," "Animate," "Roll The Bones," after Neil's solo ("The Story So Far") and in the beginning of

"2112 Part I." Besides his chatter, there is brief talking in "Far Cry" when people walked by in the aisle.

There's brief clapping along near the beginning of "The Main Monkey Business" and in "Far Cry," "DEW," "Tom Sawyer,"

"Jacob's Ladder" and "2112." And there's some extremely minor cell phone interference in "One Little Victory,"

"Cygnus X-1" and after the end of the polka version of "Closer To The Heart" (there might be more than that, but

those are the only ones I heard, which was surprising considering how many people were using their phones around

me).

I amplified this recording and applied minor eq to the explosions in "Far Cry" and "2112" just to bring those peaks

down a little. I did nothing else to the recording. If burning to cd, I would suggest that the first disc be the

first set, and that the second and third disc be split between "Closer To The Heart" and "Xanadu" (conversely, you

can make the third cd consist of just the encore set, but it would make for a short disc).

I took a lot of photos and have included a selection for your viewing pleasure. If you'd like to see more pics

from the evening, please refer to the respective photo album at http://www.flickr.com/photos/kling_klang/

Do not sell or buy this recording. Trade freely. And please do not remaster/matrix/modify this recording and its

text file.

Thank you to Rush and all the Rush tapers, traders and seeders in the world.

A special shout-out to the two fellows from Oklahoma I shared a cab with after the show who had roadtripped in

order to bookend the R40 tour. I hope this recording finds its way to you.

This is dedicated to my brother. On a personal note, it was rather bittersweet for the band to end these shows

and the entire R40 tour with "Working Man." That was the first Rush song I ever heard (without knowing who or

what Rush was) because my brother used to play it endlessly on his guitar.

Please support the band by buying their official releases and merch. They sold a wonderful, numbered litho

commemorating this final show, but the cool thing was that the Forum had posters and tubes left over from

the Hello Kitty Supercute Friendship Festival that occurred in June and they used those tubes to put the Rush

litho in. So I got a free Hello Kitty poster. I was probably one of the few Rush fans excited about that.
