Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson are feeling the spirit of radio the stage.
Rush just played the first four concerts of their long-awaited ‘Fifty Something Tour’ at Inglewood, CA’ Kia Forum and wowed critics.
“After a decade away, and six years after losing [Neil] Peart, Rush had returned not as a lesser echo of themselves, but as lifelong friends reclaiming what made Rush matter to so many for five decades,” Revolver gushed in a review of their June 13 LA gig.
“Lifeson’s hair is white now, but otherwise the pair looked much as we last saw them, Lee as ever grinning behind tinted glasses. In the drum seat was Anika Nilles…[she] was a forceful but also humble presence, smiling after each song but never standing triumphantly behind the kit, leaving the spotlight entirely on Rush’s guitarist and singer-bassist.”
Next up, the “Tom Sawyer” prog rockers hit Fort Worth, TX’s Dickies Arena for another quartet of gigs. Those shows are scheduled to take place:
Wednesday, June 24
7:30 p.m.
Friday, June 26

Geddy Lee memoir
In 2023, Lee embarked on a fall tour in support of his memoir “My Effin’ Life.”
“I’ve never lived my life looking anywhere but forward, which is why I resisted doing this kind of thing for so long,” Lee shared in a statement ahead of the trek.
“But you need a lot more determination to proceed in the world of music without the comfort of your bandmates, and I can only hope that finishing this book will release me to return to what I do and love best.”

Anika Nilles
Nilles, 43, hails from Aschaffenburg and started her artistic journey when she was just six.
Her first original compositions “Wild Boy” (2013) and “Alter Ego” (2014) led to a subsequent tour, debut album and aforementioned 2022 European run alongside Jeff Beck.
To get a taste of her jazzy and refined yet explosive sound whilst banging on the kit, you can find her lively discography here.
Carrie Nuttall-Peart full statement
Peart’s widow Carrie Nuttall-Peart and his daughter OIivia released a statement regarding the ‘Fifty Something Tour.’ Here’s what the two shared in full:
“We are thrilled to support the ‘Fifty Something’ tour, celebrating a band whose music has resonated and inspired fans for generations, and to honor Neil’s extraordinary legacy as both a drummer and lyricist. Neil’s musicianship was singular. Compositions of intricacy and power that expanded what rhythm itself could express. As both drummer and lyricist, he was irreplaceable. Inimitable in his artistry, and unmatched in the depth and imagination he brought to the lyrics that inspired and moved so many, he profoundly shaped how fans connected with him and the band, giving voice and meaning to their own lives. As the band enters this new chapter, it promises to be truly unforgettable. We are excited to see how their new vision unfolds, and to hear this legendary music played live once again.”
