このコンテンツについて
Geddy Lee has once again found himself front and center in music headlines thanks to the monumental announcement that Rush will return to the stage for the first time in over a decade. The “Fifty Something” tour, officially revealed in early October and expanded multiple times due to explosive fan demand, now boasts a total of 60 shows running through 2026. This marks the first real Rush tour since the R40 finale in 2015 at the Forum in L.A., and Geddy himself described the process as a “serious soul searching” journey with Alex Lifeson. Lee said, “We f-ing miss it. It’s time for a celebration of 50-something years of Rush music,” reflecting both nostalgia and renewed energy after years away, as quoted across outlets such as Best Classic Bands, AXS TV, and American Songwriter.
A particularly biographical milestone is the band’s delicate balance between honoring the late Neil Peart and moving into a new era. Geddy and Alex will be joined by drummer Anika Nilles, a highly regarded musician stepping into legendary shoes. In a recent CBC News interview covered by Consequence and other music media, Lee explained how Nilles, initially not a Rush fan but a massive Neil admirer, was handpicked after a secretive week-long jam in Canada. Geddy’s bass tech had first seen her work with Jeff Beck, and Lee expressed how her technical expertise and positive mindset have fit seamlessly, despite the daunting role.
In terms of public appearances, beyond band news, Geddy recently made headlines for his return to the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum in Kansas City for a discussion and book signing of “72 Stories: From the Baseball Collection of Geddy Lee” on October 11. Shared via RushIsABand and Lee’s own Instagram, Geddy reinforced his lifelong baseball passion and ongoing efforts supporting the museum, where his personally donated, autographed baseballs remain on display. Over 500 people attended, and Lee was interviewed live by museum president Bob Kendrick.
On the business front, the newly announced Rush tour has set off an immediate flurry of ticket sales, with some outlets noting that every previously revealed show sold out within hours. The band is planning ambitious “evening with” shows, playing two sets a night and pulling from a rotating list of 35 Rush classics and fan favorites, a move widely seen as a strategic and creative risk with significant upside for legacy and revenue. The tour is expected to be a major revenue generator and an opportunity for a new generation of fans to see Lee and Lifeson perform Rush music live with a fresh dynamic.
As for social media, Geddy himself rarely posts, sometimes using Twitter only to follow baseball news, as noted on the band’s official site. Most recent social coverage relates to tour announcements, reactions, and book signings shared on Instagram and Facebook by Lee’s team and official Rush channels, rather than Geddy’s personal accounts.
In terms of speculation, there is buzz about additional musicians possibly joining onstage to “expand our sound a wee bit,” as Lee hinted in promotional videos, but as of yet no confirmed names have surfaced. This keeps fans watching Rush’s channels closely for updates.
