Fresh off their 2-night stint in San Antonio last week, Rush rolls the Fifty Something tour a few hours east down Highway 10 to play the first one-off show of the tour at Houston's Toyota Center. Rush has performed at least 2 shows in each city they've traveled to so far, which has allowed them to give fans a good sampling of setlists between the multiple shows. In general, Rush has been toggling between their Bravo and Charlie setlists between the 2 shows in each city for all of the 2-night runs, with the night 1 Bravo setlist featuring 2112 in full as the centerpiece, and the night 2 Charlie set featuring the whole of Moving Pictures. So it's not clear what Rush will do for this one-off show, although the rare Gorgo setlist that they played for the Fort Worth make-up show might be the best template to follow; that set featured BOTH 2112 and Moving Pictures in full. We'll be watching the setlist closely tonight, and will chime in once we have an idea of what they might be planning. Also, the Rush fans YouTube channel has created a cool web-based Rush Tour Stats tool that fans can use to dig deep into the all the setlist data; check it out at rushtourstats.com. The Houston-themed merch for tonight's show is featured in this Instagram post, and early merch sales begin at 5PM near the entrance at Clay and LaBranch. The doors open at 6:30PM and the show starts at 7:30 (ish). For everybody going to the show, have fun. RUSH!!!!!!!
