Background

The European leg of the tour was supported by Girlschool.[1] Riot was the opening act for the band on the North American leg, performing in arenas.[2]

Setlist

This is an example setlist adapted from Rush: Wandering the Face of the Earth – The Official Touring History of what were performed during the tour, but may not represent the majority of the shows.[3] The setlist was similar to the setlist from the previous tour, but featured the song "Subdivisions" which would later be featured on the band's 1982 studio album Signals. "New World Man" and "Chemistry" were both performed only at the soundchecks before a show.[4][5]
