The rock legends RUSH are back on tour! GEDDY LEE and ALEX LIFESON, the iconic co-founders of the band, have just announced 17 new cities joining their 2026 headline tour, Fifty Something, due to “incredible demand”. You know, it’s been eleven years since they’ve toured together, and we’re stoked they’re dusting off those iconic riffs.
The tour is a love letter to RUSH’s music, legacy, and the late, great NEIL PEART, who was not only an incredible drummer but also a phenomenal lyricist. By the way, did you know that Neil Peart was known as “The Professor” due to his intense drumming style and love of literature? Anyway, the new dates include cities like Philadelphia, Boston, Montreal, Washington D.C., Atlanta, Edmonton, Seattle, Vancouver, and more (check out the full list below). If you’re in one of these cities, you won’t want to miss it!
