Working Men is a live compilation album by Canadian progressive rock band Rush. The compilation documents a shortlist of career-spanning material pulled from the band's three tours during the 2000s. The selections are from the Vapor Trails Tour, the R30: 30th Anniversary Tour and the Snakes & Arrows Tour. Each of those tours were already documented on CD and DVD in the form of Rush in Rio at Maracanã Stadium in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in 2002, R30 at the Festhalle Frankfurt in Frankfurt, Germany in 2004 and Snakes & Arrows Live at the Ahoy Arena in Rotterdam, Netherlands in 2007, making this compilation possible. It is available in both CD and DVD formats like the previous releases. Both formats were released on November 13, 2009, in Europe and November 17, 2009, in North America.
