Rush Performance of Between The Wheels at MGM Grand Garden Las Vegas
Let's dive into the vibrant world of Rush during a notable moment in their career! The live recording from July 28, 2007, captures the band performing "Between The Wheels" at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. This performance was part of their "Snakes & Arrows Tour," supporting the album "Snakes & Arrows," which was released earlier that year. This album marked a significant return for Rush, showcasing a more introspective and mature sound, something fans were eager for after a five-year hiatus since their previous album, "Vapor Trails." What’s particularly interesting is that "Snakes & Arrows" earned them a Grammy nomination for Best Rock Instrumental Performance. Plus, the tour was noteworthy for featuring a setlist that resonated with fans old and new, blending the classic and the contemporary. This performance encapsulated not just where Rush was musically but also the profound connection they maintained with their audience, making every show a true celebration of their legacy.
