UPDATE - 9/14@11:01PM: That's a wrap on Boston. They played the expected Charlie set - specifically the version with A Farewell to Kings rather than Anthem. Full setlist here.
UPDATE - 9/14@9:03PM: Intermission! Rush is sticking to setlist Charlie as expected, specifically the C-2 variation that they've been favoring lately which includes A Farewell to Kings rather than Anthem. They'll be busting into the full Moving Pictures when they come back from break. Full setlist so far here.

Rush will wrap up their 2-show run at Boston's TD Garden this evening - playing the band's 30th show on the tour so far, and we're not even a third of the way done yet! They'll then take a short 2-day break before heading to Cleveland later this week. We're expecting the band to play a version of their Charlie setlist, which includes Moving Pictures in full as its centerpiece. This setlist features Dreamline right after the Xanadu opener, and closes out set 1 with The Spirit of Radio. Set 2 begins with Moving Pictures and closes out with a truncated 2112 with By-tor as the first encore. There have only been 2 variations of this set so far - one with Anthem and the other with A Farewell to Kings - so we'll see which one they pull out, or if they throw another variation (or a totally new one) at fans. Here's the full, expected setlist. The Boston-themed merch for the show is featured in this Instagram post, and early merch stands open up at 3PM at North Station, directly next to the Proshop at 84 Causeway St. Doors open at 6:30 and the show will start at 7:30 (ish). For all who are going tonight, have a blast!!
