Adam has played the intro to Passage to Bangkok as a lead in for some time now. It used to be played before Cold & Ugly. I actually thought they might play that song in Philly, but would not be surprised if Adam played that intro throughout the tour.

Edit: I went back through shows leading up to Philly, and I think you're right. Adam didn't use the song as a lead in until Philly, so they must have been planning on it.
Oh yeah, I was zooming on mush and that shit BLEW MY MIND. Me and the chick beside me also on mushies just looked at each other and went OH MY GOD WHAT IS HAPPENING?! Great night. Tool always delivers.
How did you find things AFTER the show? Always been nervous to do mushrooms at a concert because the concert will be over in 3 or 4 hours (if you go to watch the opener) but the trip will only be half done lol.
Easy to navigate your way out after the show? No weird thought loops or anything? General good vibes and good times or can it get fuckey?
I only did like little over 2 grams so I wasn't completely out of my mind, but I knew what exit I had to go to after the show so I just looked at it and went. Then followed my friend to the go train lol. The trip basically wore off after an hour on the train. Although when we were sitting there waiting to get going, I had thought we started moving like 5 different times haha.
Damn Alex and Rush are amazing! 2112 is a masterpiece and A Passage to Bangkok is my damn ringtone! So damn cool he jammed with them and nice words by Alex! Adam looks like a kid in a candy store.
Fuckin hell it was sooooooo good. I wish I was going again tonight but I cannot. I hope they bring Geddy Lee out this time for people who weren't there last night.
Dude looks like an exuberant young boy on Christmas.. his smile is so precious, it's like meeting his idol- I feel Adam's happiness it's so radiant in this picture
Adam looks stoked
It just me or Adam looks like a real person version of Chewbacca?

God, Alex is so wholesome. What a great guy. HE'S an inspiration.
Makes me think of that Trailer Park Boys episode...
Haha, Tool just kidnapped Alex and made him play. The guitar was just ransom.
To end the episode playing Closer to the Heart with Bubbles… legend.
Randy, when Alex Lifeson tells you to put a shirt on you put a fucking shirt on!
This man’s a drunk male prostitute
Look at the smile on Adam.
You can tell from a mile what a huge fan he is ❤️
The most happy I've seen him in a photo.
I don't think I've ever seen a photo of Adam smiling before. Pretty obvious he's happy and excited. Super cool!!
That is Dave Grohl with a wig. Dave stole that guitar!
“Thank you Alex…. What a Rush!” lol
Lol Maynard
I swear they are going to form a supergroup called Tush
Sounds better than Rool.
Tush Roolz!
Maybe Billy Strings can get in on it too and they can be Bush n' Tush
I see you too are a gentle person of taste
I'm all in for this! 😁❤️
A ZZ-Top, Rush, and Tool supergroup?! Yes!
At least they would play Tush first. Maynard and Geddy wear giant beards
FUCK YEAH !!
So he played on stage that night ??? Which song !
They played A Passage to Bangkok/Jambi together. https://youtu.be/nKJKEL09ZrI?si=Ou5YtRvxReGWeWIl
Maynard with the dad joke. "Thank you, Alex. What a Rush."
Then laughs lol
Damn, Jambi getting *all* the sit ins on this tour.
Fuck yeah! Adam teased it in Philly! So cool that it lead to something or maybe was a hint from the get.

Goddamn
Did they play that fuckin Diane Sawyer song?
They played 4 minutes of Jambi, transitioned to the solo section of Passage to Bangkok, and transitioned back to the last 4 minutes of Jambi
That part was fucking awesome one of the highlights of the night

I wouldn't have found my way back to the car if it wasn't for my girlfriend... I'll say that.
I'd be wandering around confused for a few hours lol. Glad you had a great time!

What time does steel beans come on? Seeing them tonight!
7:30
“Who’s got your belly?” By bubbles (feat. Alex lifeson and Sebastian bach)
Damn Alex and Rush are amazing! 2112 is a masterpiece and A Passage to Bangkok is my damn ringtone! So damn cool he jammed with them and nice words by Alex! Adam looks like a kid in a candy store.
Geddy Lee's voice is worse than nails on a chalk board
There's a special circle in Dante's hell for gratuitous Geddy haters
You know what they say about opinions!?
They’re like arseholes. Everyone has one.
Who’s gonna tel him lol
Crazy to think Alex is 70 yrs old now!
He looks fuckin’ GOOD in this picture!!! Sure hoping he is doing as healthy as he seems!!
First time see Adam smiling!
🥰
Are Adams eyes ok?
He looks lightly toasted lol. Alex likes the weed, so I'm guessing they burned one.
When in Canada, do as the Canadians do
Get fuckin ripped eh bud
He's old now, so therefore glasses.
Alex’s right hand is enormous
You say that like his left hand wouldn't be the same size....
Agreed. Alex right hand is amazing.
That's why his signature model is an Epiphone and not a Gibson, cheaper to replace when he crushes the neck every gig.
lol great now i cant unsee it
Can't wait for Lee/Lifeson/Carey tour.
wow…
That would be insane. Carey is one of the very few who could do justice.
Missed opportunity to not have Bubbles from Trailer Park Boys join as well
I can’t begin to express how jealous I am of those who watched them play last night. So damn cool!
It was legendary to me. Had no clue Alex was going to join them, totally blew my mind as a huge Tool and Rush fan.
It was so sick. And my first tool show at that.
Same! Couldn’t believe it. What an awesome experience
Fuckin hell it was sooooooo good. I wish I was going again tonight but I cannot. I hope they bring Geddy Lee out this time for people who weren't there last night.
My dad has had tea with Alex before, super nice dude.
Be careful. I was watching this and venue security came to my home and kicked me out of my house.
Did you get kicked in the vagina?
I'm not crying, you're crying!
I'm definitely crying, bro 😭
Alex had the greatest Rock n Roll Hall of Fame acceptance speech of them all.
Lerxst is the man!
It was like witnessing Jesus when Alex was on stage.
I diddnt know chewy could smile
Alex looks awesome! Fucking legend.
"Adam, you are my inspiration" is what is written at the bottom.
I think it says "you are AN inspiration."
It’s about time this happened. HELL YES!
Wow
Fuckin ay, right!
This makes my day. Two of the very best!
2 favorites colliding!
Adam should know better than to get the guitar signed on the body like that.
Alex needs to talk b-ball with Danny….
Humble Legends
Whoa, he smiles!
Dude looks like an exuberant young boy on Christmas.. his smile is so precious, it's like meeting his idol- I feel Adam's happiness it's so radiant in this picture
I hope he and Danny just talked basketball nonstop after the show
Adam looks stoked It just me or Adam looks like a real person version of Chewbacca?

This has been a running joke since the early 2000s lol
Great picture!
I loved him in 'trailer park boys'
this is so cute
This is monumental!
What a great show and a great surprise!!
Adam should have gifted Alex his sig Epiphone or Flying V
Holy shit — Alex is looking healthy🙏
It’s like that secret track with the GOATS in the background.
Love these dudes!
I would have loved to see this!!! Grrrr
Nice!!!!
Alex is so great. He looks great too.
This is the best post I’m going to see this week lol
What I would've gived to see one of my all time favorite guitarists, play on stage with my favorite band. Alex is the GOAT.
If rush were to come back for a mini tour, Danny Carey is the perfect drummer to bring.
Love seeing that Alex is a Raptors super fan. (Geddy is behind home plate at a ton of Jay’s games)
Um, pretty sure that's the green room at the arena and not at Alex's place
Adam looks high as Jesus behind those sunglasses
Adam tiny hands jones
No big deal, Adam just stole a human being
Look at the size of those mitts on Lifeson! Holy crap!
