## Resource

Rush is back on the road for their “Fifty Something” tour, featuring Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson with new drummer Anika Nilles, kicking off June 7th at LA’s The Forum—the same venue where they last played with Neil Peart in 2015. This North American tour in 2026 will mark a triumphant return to live music, celebrating the band’s enduring legacy. Since Neil Peart’s passing in 2020, the surviving members have kept creating: Geddy Lee released three books and hosted a quirky TV show, while Alex Lifeson collaborated across genres, launched his side project Envy of None, and penned forewords for books. Though their iconic trio era ended, the spirit of Rush lives on through their relentless creativity and electrifying stage presence.
