このコンテンツについて
Geddy Lee has spent the past few days straddling two lives: the reflective author and baseball historian, and the rock icon hurtling back toward the arena spotlight. Rush fan site Rush Is A Band reports that Geddy’s most recent major public appearance was at the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum in Kansas City, where he hosted a book event for his new volume “72 Stories from the Collection of Geddy Lee.” There, he sat for an onstage conversation with museum president Bob Kendrick before signing books for an audience of roughly 500 fans, and later shared photos and a heartfelt thank-you on Instagram, praising the museum as an inspiring place and urging support for its preservation. That appearance reinforces a long-running biographical thread: Geddy as serious baseball collector and benefactor, the same guy who donated hundreds of Negro Leagues–signed baseballs to the museum years ago, now returning as an established author to cement that legacy.
On the music front, the real earthquake remains Rush’s full‑scale return to the road. Rush.com and Best Classic Bands detail how Geddy and Alex Lifeson have now expanded their 2026 “Fifty Something” tour to around 60 dates across North America, after the initial shows sold out almost instantly. In new interviews summarized by Blabbermouth and Consequence, Geddy describes the reunion as a very difficult but ultimately joyous decision, shaped by long soul‑searching over whether they could honor Neil Peart without cheapening his memory. He confirms that German drummer Anika Nilles, known from Jeff Beck’s last tour, has been chosen after secret rehearsals in Canada convinced the pair she could handle the Rush catalog with power and sensitivity.
Geddy has also used these conversations to sketch out the shape of his immediate future: he says he has been practicing diligently for a year and a half, is building multiple rotating set lists of more than 35 songs, and does not expect to return to three‑hour marathons but still plans “over two hours” a night. Commenting to CBC, quoted by several outlets, he calls the fan response overwhelming, admits he is physically “getting ready,” and frames the tour as both a tribute to Neil and a celebration of 50‑plus years of Rush music. There are no credible reports in the last 24 hours of new controversies or surprise projects, and no verified social media posts beyond his ongoing promotion of “72 Stories” and the tour.
