Until Tuesday night, Rush hadn't played their iconic 2112 suite in full for a long, long time. Nearly three decades had passed since the 20-minute, seven-part epic ended the first set of the final show of the Test for Echo tour, at the Corel Centre in Ottawa, ON, in July 1997.
Since then, the band have performed truncated versions of the suite, including on the opening night of the Fifty Something tour at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles. But on the second night, they played the whole thing, to the very palpable delight of the 18,000 ticketholders.
