Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson have announced dates for a new Rush North American tour. The Rush Fifty Something tour will be the band's first live dates since drummer Neil Peart died of glioblastoma in 2020, aged 67. The schedule will begin on June 7 next year at the Los Angeles Forum, the venue for Rush's last show, the final date of the R40 tour on August 1, 2015.
The dates will mark the debut of the band's new live drummer, Anika Nilles. The German drummer, composer, and producer performed as Jeff Beck’s drummer for over 60 shows and has released four solo albums. Geddy Lee also doesn't rule out another musician joining him and Lifeson on stage for the comeback shows.
