Rush Time Machine

Rush’s The Time Machine Tour was a favorite among fans, thanks to its incredible set list, which encompassed songs from the progressive rock trio’s entire career. This live concert, recorded in April 2011 at Cleveland’s Quicken Loans Arena, pays homage to the city that first played their music on the radio. Highlights include “Tom Sawyer,” “Limelight” and “Closer to the Heart.”
