Ep. 215: David Calcano of Fantoons on his Contribution to the 50 Something Tour
Friend of the podcast David Calcano of Fantoons returns this week to tell us about his involvement in the 50 Something tour. I won't spoil it in the description in case you're still avoiding the setlists, but suffice to say Fantoons made a real cool video for a classic Rush tune!

Ep 211: Do You Want to Build a Rush Setlist?
This week, we're holding a contest: guessing what songs Rush will play at the first 4 shows of the Fifty Something tour in Los Angeles in June! We've set up a form where you can choose 38 songs you think will make an appearance in any of those LA shows. Each song you can choose from has a point value attached to it, from 1 for the songs Rush has played most often to 15 for the songs they've never played. The form is set up to ask for a playing order, but we're not expecting anyone to pick every song in order. The winner will receive a set of Rush bobbleheads, modeled after their 70s look. And, if you want to, we'd also love to have you on the podcast to brag about how prescient you are. Good luck!
