Rush co-founders Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson will return to the road as Rush next year for a 50th-anniversary tour dedicated to the memory of their late bandmate Neil Peart, they announced today. German drum virtuoso Anika Nilles, who’s previously backed Jeff Beck, will join them for the 12-date, seven-city Fifty Something Tour, which kicks off June 7 at Los Angeles’ Kia Forum — the same venue where Rush played their last show with Peart in August 2015. “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,” Lee said in a press release. “And that it’s time for a celebration of 50-something years of Rush music.”
Lee and Lifeson, best friends since high school, spent the past few years in a friendly public debate about the prospect of touring again without Peart, their drummer and lyricist, who died in 2020 after a quiet battle with brain cancer. Lee told Rolling Stone that he’d been working to persuade Lifeson to go out, and even Paul McCartney had told the duo that they needed to tour again. As recently as last May, Lifeson was still resistant, at least in public, telling Rolling Stone, “There’s no chance that we’re going to get a drummer and go back on the road as the rebirth of Rush or something like that.”

It’s a true homecoming finale for what has become the most-attended tour in history.

In total, over 11 million tickets have been sold worldwide.

The show was the first of two nights at Wembley Stadium, wrapping up the European leg of the band's Deadline tour, which will see them play 31 dates in 16 cities worldwide.
