Rush’s set list from its 50 Something tour is 22 songs of classic rock

The Internet has unintentionally killed the suspense for nearly everything, up to and including concerts.

Long before a person walks into a concert, there’s a good chance they have the set list ready to go on their phones.

In an effort to create at last some variety to their shows, and maybe a surprise, a band or performer is now more apt to tinker with their set list.

On their 50 Something tour that is currently playing Dickies Arena in Fort Worth, Rush is playing around with their catalogue of hits to give the audience some variety. And, in the process, entertain themselves as well.

On Sunday night at Dickies Arena, Rush played the second of their four-performance run scheduled for Fort Worth to a soldout audience.

This is one of the more eagerly anticipated concert tours this summer, and Rush plays for nearly three hours that includes 22 songs, one intermission, and several tributes to the late drummer, Neal Peart.
