Rush wrapped up their 4-night stint at Chicago's United Center last night to yet another sold out crowd. For their Chi-town run they ended up playing the same 4 setlists that they played in LA (and Fort Worth for the first 3 shows). This lends more weight to the notion that the special Setlist G that we saw for the rescheduled 4th Fort Worth show was just a one-off as we'd speculated. That's not to say that we won't see that G set again at some point down the road - it's just not a part of the standard 4-show rotation. That said, after MSG and Toronto they won't have any more 4-night stints, so they'll have to change things up as far as the rotation goes at that point. I'd wager that they'll do something similar to what they did for the pair of Mexico City shows, but we'll have a better idea after they do a few 2-night stints later next month. Now the band takes a much-deserved 6-day break before heading to the Big Apple for another 4-night residency at New York City's Madison Square Garden. RushCon will be hosting a Madison Square Garden pre-show party next Saturday August 1st - the day of the 3rd of 4 MSG shows - with all the details here. The event will take place at The Rutherford a 3PM, and it's SOLD OUT (but there is a waitlist). Rush along with Anika Nilles and Loren Gold, all posted thank you Chicago messages and photos to Instagram following the final show, as seen here.
