About the Rush Fifty Something Tour Setlist Tracker

This is an unofficial, non-commercial fan tracker for the Rush Fifty Something Tour, sometimes searched as the “50 Something Tour”. It answers three questions: the current Rush setlist pattern, the latest verified Fifty Something Tour setlist, and which setlist is most likely at your upcoming show.

Recent Rush Fifty Something Tour two-night stops: Setlist B (Bravo) on Night 1; Setlist C (Charlie) on Night 2. Recent shorter stops rotate between those setlists, so each night of a stop has its own likely setlist rather than following the earlier residency sequence.

Earlier in the tour, stops ran as four-night residencies built from setlists A–G. Setlists A–D are the primary configurations; E–G are further observed configurations, each shown in its standard Set 1 / Set 2 / Encore order.

Completed setlists may include information from setlist.fm and other sources and appear here after tracker validation and independent cross-checks. Predictions for upcoming shows are forecasts based on verified completed shows, not published production sheets, so small song substitutions and sequencing changes are always possible.
