WOW, can you imagine witnessing NEP playing his solo for the first time ever. Not knowing about him, the band RUSH and even his the country of Canada. This probably something none of those men will ever forget.

It's akin to when I first came to this country. NYC with something called snow, the freezing temperatures 🌡 😑. The tall buildings with their limitless rise. I was 10 and they had not yet completed the twin towers. It was like I was on another planet.

Love this band RUSH, but one thing I've not found out about them. Who came up with the idea to have that intermission at their latter shows when touring? When I witnessed the first one back in the 90's, I remember saying this such a BRILLIANT idea?
Very nice find.

👏👏👌👍✌️

Happy to share a NEW film from the A Farewell To Kings tour in Baltimore, Maryland on November 13th 1977, thanks to friends at Classic Rock Media Archive for helping with the professional scan, color-correction, and audio sync!

Oh my goodness, what a treasure to see and hear this. WOW, at that time I had just moved to MD the summer of 77'. At the time I had a liking of RUSH. I especially liked Geddy's voice and got hooked after a friend played 2112 for a couple years earlier. A couple years later they were playing at the largest arena in MD The Capital Centre. I saw them every tour they played there till they started playing the Jiffy Lube Amphitheater out in Bristow VA.

I watched the video, did anyone see that drum 🥁 stick tumbling from the center of the stage towards the right side of the audience. I've never ever seen Neil Peart throw his sticks in the 49 times I've seen the band. I'm not sure where else it could've come from tumbling towards the audience. Anyway, thanks for this posting this is a treasure as this year marks R50.
💖 Long live RUSH live.👏👍👌💐

🚨 RUSH ANNOUNCE 2026 REUNION TOUR WITH NEW DRUMMER ANIKA NILLES⁣
⁣
Geddy Lee says:⁣
⁣
“It’s been over 10 years since Alex and I have performed the music of RUSH alongside our fallen bandmate and friend Neil. A lifetime’s worth of songs that we had put our cumulative hearts and souls into writing, recording and playing together onstage. And so, after all that has gone down since that last show, Alex and I have done some serious soul searching and come to the decision that we fucking miss it, and that it’s time for a celebration of 50-something years of RUSH music. So in 2026 my BFF Lerxst (aka Alex Lifeson) and I are going to hit the road once again to pay tribute to our past and to Neil by performing a vast selection of RUSH songs in a handful of cities. No small task, because as we all know Neil was irreplaceable.⁣
⁣
Yet life is full of surprises, and we’ve have been introduced to another remarkable person; an incredible drummer and musician who is adding another chapter to our story while continuing her own fascinating musical journey. Her name is Anika Nilles, and we could not be more excited to introduce her to our loyal and dedicated RUSH fanbase, whom, we know, will give her every chance to live up to that near impossible role. Before we hit the stage, we also hope to add another musician or two to expand our sound a wee bit and free up Alex and I, in order to show off some of our new fancy dance steps. ⁣
⁣
Lerxst, Anika and myself, along with many of our longstanding crew members have been hard at work rehearsing and designing the kind of RUSH show you’ve grown accustomed to expect from us. We dearly hope you will come along and help us celebrate our history together.”⁣

I signed up for the presale for the Saturday show in in Chicago. I saw them a couple of times in the 80's and would like to see them again one last time.

A friend asked me how much on the secondary market if it's impossible to get through TM. I said five grand

Probably not a high traffic place to discuss Rush, but there are huge gaps in these dates. Can’t imaging them not adding dates.

And will definitely need platinum pricing to keep the secondary market costs from exploding.

This came out of nowhere! Will try my luck for Toronto.

PS: Note to PJ - um, here’s a band with a new drummer announcing dates for summer 2026. Just saying.

It took them 10 years to find a drummer, don't give PJ ideas

I'm in heaven smiling from ear to ear. MY daughter is aspiring drummer and her birthday is in the summer. Im taking her to NYC to one of rhose shows for sure. I'll just need to put away a couple grandto make this happen. One way or another it will happen.

Yah I might go to Toronto for this one. Told a friend of mine for years that if Rush found a way to go one I'd go with him. I assumed it'd would be a closer show in Vancouver, but it is what it is.

Only so many rock bands I haven't seen, that I can still go to see. Spending a few bucks to see them while it's an option isn't a bad thing.
