UPDATE - 11/6@1:47AM: Rush did something completely unexpected (go figure) and decided to treat the Miami night 1 crowd to their C(harlie) setlist; a set that they typically do on night 2. This likely means that the night 2 crowd should expect a B(ravo) set. This also marks the first time on the tour that the band played identical setlists on back-to-back nights (they also played C-3 at their last show). Full setlist here.
Date/Time: Thursday, November 5th @ 7:30PM
Show Number: 47
Venue: Hard Rock Live
Place: Davie, FL

46 shows down, 46 go! The second half of Rush's extensive 92-date Fifty Something tour kicks off tonight in the state of Florida, where Rush will play the first of a pair of shows at Miami's Hard Rock Live. We're expecting Rush to pull out yet another variation of their B(ravo) setlist tonight, just as they've done for all of the night 1 shows in the US so far. That said, most of the variation is in the order in which they play the tracks, with just a few selections varying from one city to the next. Set 1 typically opens up (after Xanadu) with Limelight or The Spirit of Radio and closes with the same (whichever one they didn't open with). The Bravo sets also typically include Freewill, La Villa Strangiato, Subdivisions and the Bravado Neil Peart tribute. Some other tracks that are likely to fill out the set are The Trees, Natural Science, Distant Early Warning, The Analog Kid, or The Pass. Set 2 on the other hand has been identical (mostly) for all the night 1 shows, always opening up with 2112 in full and closing with Tom Sawyer. It also features some deep tracks such as Animate, A Passage to Bangkok, Anthem, The Garden, or even Leave That Thing Alone - which they pulled out at Mohegan Sun night 1. Full expected setlist here. The Miami-themed merch for tonight's show is featured in this Instagram post and early merch sales start at 3PM in the ballroom of the casino. The doors open at 6PM and the show starts at 7:30 (more like 7:45). For everybody going to the show, have a great time!!
