Rush's exclusive five-night stand at Radio City Music Hall in 1983 served as a high-profile warm-up, utilizing their existing Signals stage production to road-test pre-release versions of "Kid Gloves," "Red Sector A," and "The Body Electric." When the official Grace Under Pressure Tour launched, the set list saw a dramatic, thematic restructuring. A major highlight was the live premiere of "The Fear Trilogy," allowing fans to experience "The Enemy Within," "The Weapon," and "Witch Hunt" sequentially for the first time. The tour was also notable for significant mid-run adjustments; "Afterimage" was dropped in mid-July and eventually replaced by "Kid Gloves" in September. Furthermore, the band experimented heavily with the show's pacing and structure. Initially, Neil Peart's customary drum solo was placed inside the "Red Lenses" encore, but by October, it was shifted back to "YYZ," accompanied by a newly added bass solo from Geddy Lee, before closing the night with a nostalgic nod to "Finding My Way" and "In the Mood."
