What's next for Rush?

- The progressive rock group Rush, formed decades ago in the Toronto suburbs by guitarist Alex Lifeson, bass player Geddy Lee and drummer Neil Peart, became Canada's most legendary rock band ever, with more than 40 million albums sold. Lifeson and Lee (author of a new memoir, "My Effin' Life") talk with correspondent Jim Axelrod about their particular blend of musicianship, stagecraft and goofiness; how tragedy upended the band with the death of Peart; and what might constitute Rush's next chapter.

The gold standard of rock and roll. Three wonderful guys. RIP Neil.
more like Platinum standard :)
@@OneIssueVoter Way to tell everyone you don't know what you are talking about. Geddy is widely regarded as a top 10 bass player all time and has extremely complex and recognizable bass lines, and Alex was ranked top 50 in a list made by a company that has long detested Rush while a plethora of other great guitarists sank low on the list, and likewise has complex riffs and solos. The only way they could be as good as they were was if all 3 members were elite at their artistry, otherwise they would have gotten no where if any single leg fell flat. No 3-piece band could produce so much sound and have so much success if any of them lack. Yes Peart is the most regarded and recognizable member, but nothing about the other two members is "generic" lmao
7:10 Whoever poured the interviewers beer (on the left), should be arrested, and never allowed in a "brewery" again!😮
@Joseph-vl4uk well said
I would put Ged in my top 5
They all made it work
Even though we loved Neil RIP
I'm a hell of an air drummer
@@OneIssueVoter and what bar is your band playing in this weekend?
One of the best bands in music history.
💯
For a wealthy rock star, Geddy is such a down to earth guy.
He's like the complete opposite of Gene Simmons.
All of Rush is and was.
I think most of that wealth is in baseball memorabilia and bass guitars....lol
This is why Rush could be at the top of their game, and not sell out. I would love to see Lerxst and Dirk put together a band with their own original material. They have it in them, and I think they want to let it fly. They should at least have some fun and call themselves "Victor's Headache".
Probably because they only had a small circle of people that believed in their vision and stayed true to it. They didn’t get caught up in rock and roll excess.
Alex: We'd seen a lot more girls at our shows.
Geddy: Like five or six. lol
A very touching interview. RUSH never went through the calamity of doing hardcore drugs and band members going off to rehab or commit suicide. The best, they never split up or sued each other. They were a family that played together and stayed together. The road they have traveled on to superstardom had to be difficult in the beginning. Their music was certainly different and fresh. They stayed true to themselves and their art. RIP Neil Peart
According to Geddy’s bio they actually did quite a bit of hardcore drugs, luckily not meth or heroin though hahah and no rehab. They are class acts through and through. And professional above all else.
I should have made myself more clear. Hardcore drugs = Cocaine, heroine, meth krokodil, ect..@@patmanpow1173
@@patmanpow1173 I truly wonder what those guys were like on coke. They probably just read more ferociously
Rush, one of the greatest bands ever. No band like them will exist again. True musicians. No auto tune here.
Not even close. So glad I grew up in the right time witness to the MAGIC....
No melody, no "beat"..just noise made for the Dungeons & Dragons crowd
@@kendallevans4079 all music from 3 talented individuals. Like any other band, there appeal is normally to specific generation.
@@kendallevans4079 On the contrary, there's a plethora of beats and melodies in Rush, just not so much of the predictable prosaic ones that you're accustomed to.
@@kendallevans4079 it's not that pop and rap mainstream crap
Everybody on Earth deserves a friendship as long and healthy as Geddy and Alex.
As far as I am concerned, there is no more RUSH without 🥁Neil Peart!!!!!
They have been the
Soundtrack to my life
Since 1976. I personally
Don’t care if they ever
Play another note on
Stage, I think they’ve
Earned their leisure…
RIP, Professor ❤
❤
Yeah …there is only one Neil Peart.
Right on man. 2112 was my first concert, Civic arena Pittsburgh
Same holds true even without Neal. Haven’t found 3 musicians that compare in today’s ridiculous music world
Same here.....same here
If Rush doesn't reunite it's not the end of the world. They have a cemented legacy and a catalog of music that will stand the test of time. It's worked out for Led Zeppelin when they lost John Bonham. They never reunited to make new music ever again and 43 years later, they're still celebrated.
Very true
Exactly...
Please leave well enough alone. And I LOVE Rush!!
Yes it’s an interesting point about Rush. All fans are just fine about the end of the band without The man. Would be very strange a tour with another drummer but if they fancy a come back they will get a warm welcome .
True but Zep did play together again a few times.
These guys are national treasures and such amazing role models. So thankful for them... RIP Neil.
Global treasures. Protect at all costs!
No, they are way beyond a Canadian treasure, they touched the hearts of everyone around the world!
They are INTERNATIONAL 🎉❤
⚔️ IN THE NAME OF THE BASSIST
⚔️ AND OF THE GUITARIST
⚔️ AND THE WORLD'S GREATEST DRUMMER
AMEN
🔵😳🔴
Rush's been my absolute passion and inspiration for decades. Neil was the reason I started learning the drums. My dad went to Rush in RIo in 2002 and grabbed the DVD a couple of months later. Six-year-old me would watch it over and over again, sitted on the floor, pillows in front of me and wooden spoons in my hands, banging to Earthshine and memorizing every detail of Neil's solo. Twenty years later, still rocking to it, appreaciating Neil's fantastic lyrics, Geddy's resounding bass and Alex's distinct tunes. I'm a drummer to this day and will be a fan until the day I die.
The passion for his playing never goes away. Heard them first in 1976...still a huge fan....saw there final show...saw Neil standing on his balcony at home in Santa Monica....went and saw his R40 kit at DW factory 10 minutes from my house!!
🍻
That’s such a cool story. I’d like to share two of mine. I started college in 1985 and I wrote Stewart Copeland, Phil Collins, and Neil Peart letters, asking for advice on how to make it in the music business since my dad forced me to go to college, but I wanted to go to Los Angeles and play in bands. Of the three Neil was the only one who wrote me back. It was a handwritten postcard And it was filled with sincere advice. Still can’t believe he wrote me back. My second story is seeing Rush on their 40th anniversary in Vegas with my then 72-year-old dad. We had 10th row tickets at the MGM and it was absolutely amazing.
Wonderful RUSH stories, everyone!!Neil Peart was truly a humble giant, an intellectual w a huge heart, soul and could play the drums and percussion like 'nobody's business'💪🏽🥁, and wrote genius lyrics, as well! All three members are humble, musical geniuses!🎶🤘🏼✌🏽 RIP Neil, his daughter &1st wife💔💔💔
Fan till the day I die too.
Never a big fan of the music, but they have more integrity than any band out there. Always stayed true to their vision and never wavered. They did it on their terms.
@@fzr1000981and "The Pass".
I have to be honest when I was a "young metal head" :) hard to believe 30+ yrs ago I never got the Rush thing. I liked a few songs but it just never clicked. Fast forward, I took the time to dive into their music. Rush is an amazing "Band" and band in the true since of the word. No ego's between members an actual musical brotherhood. With three extremely talented individuals. Being a avid motorcyclist and bicyclist I read Neil's book and it was very well written and an inspiration in over coming heartache. RUSH deserves every bit of their success and should have been inducted in the Hall of Fame much earlier than they were.
You might wanna rethink that and go back to the early albums and educate yourself they wrote about everything that's relevant. Neil was a brilliant lyricist as well as a great drummer Probably the best band that has ever lived
May I suggest, you give them another shot by listening to "In the End" on their Fly by Night album.
Everyday glory 😎
Great way to wake up on a Sunday morning ☆ I was high school teen girl so infatuated with this band and everyone knew it even the boys. In fact I got every friend their concert tickets. I went two nights one night girl crew and the other with my guy crew and it was normal. Lol 😂. I stopped going to shows when my father had gliomastoma in 2013 before Neil became ill. But I understood this gut wrenching diagnosis. My grandpa, a watchmaker, extraordinaire, fled from Nicaragua with my grandmother in the 40s from massive corrupt government to S.F. Strangely my events did match rush evolution. That said I cannot be more proud of my favorite band that I love so much. Ged and AL are the best. Love you guys for everything. Keep rocking Rush rules ☆
♥
Thank you for sharing your story. Are there any other bands that you can recommend ?
Btw, I love your username. One of my favorite song by them.
What most women seem to forget is that if you become a true Rush fan, you become even hotter than you ever thought!!😂😂😂
@SpringNotes I listen to old Genesis. Lamb lies down on Broadway is a masterpiece. Steve Hackett spectral morning song and his Firrh of Fifrh from genesis is amazing
He still tours. YES Albums. I am musician flute player and teacher I absolutely love Tull..i met Ian Anderson. If you ever catch Tull in town you must see him Ns his band perform. It's top notch. BtW I met Rushs.main truck driver and he drives for Tull when he's not doing Rush tours. Cool, huh ?
@spuds6423 did get a few marriage proposals haha
How many seniors like myself can't help But "Air Drum" Every time a Rush song comes on the radio?
CBS could have at least recognized John Rutsey. He was in the band 6 years. To put that in perspective, that is only 4 years less than The Beatles were together. They present this as if Rush formed after holding drummer auditions and finding Peart. That aside, it's not everyday that you see a two guys that have been together for over 50 years that have been put through the rigors of one of the toughest industries and still have so much love and respect for each other. It shows the corrosiveness of taking yourself too seriously and the importance of humility and keeping yourself grounded. I would love to hang out with them, such wonderful human beings! We are all so lucky to have had front row seats to watch the career of thee greatest progressive rock trio ever formed. Whether or not Peart were still alive, he was done. He was walking away, retiring from music. As a fan, I am 100% on board with what Geddy and Alex decide to do moving forward. As much as I love and respect Peart, there was Rush before he joined the band, there can be life after. There are hundreds of thousands of people who have lost a beloved spouse and remarry. As grief settles, they come to one realization. We are given one trip on this ride. They can spend the rest of their trip in sorrow, or they can continue to honor that persons memory, pick up the pieces and move forward. Doing so does not mean that you no longer love or care about that person. Rush's lyrics were Pearts thoughts, words and life experiences. No better way to honor his legacy than to continue singing those words.
thanks for mentioning that............John may have not been the right drummer for the band, but he was an original member for a significant amount of time......Apparently, they called him the working man.......😉
I don't know about that. Plus, he went along with wanting to fire Geddy while being the band leader.
Ray Danniels was the one that wanted Geddy replaced and he ended up being their longtime manager. @@mattmarkus4868
I also think John deserved a mention. He did a good job on their debut album & his status as founding member merit this.
Words well spoken,never forget,and no regrets, life is short,it will pass you by so quickly,I feel it's ok to move on, isn't that what Neil taught us .
First rock album I ever bought - Permanent Waves
One of their best albums
If you watch the doc Beyond the Lighted Stage, one guy says "Ive been a fan for 30 years and they never let me down." Such a terrific band.
I love Rush. This made me tear up multiple times. The guys seem so genuine and down to earth. RIP, Professor.
I knew I wouldn't make it thru this video without crying. And I don't cry.
I honestly cannot think of any other musicians that have a true and honest love for. Not only giants of music, but incredibly decent human beings. Rest in peace, Neil. ♥♥💔
lots of other greats out there -Jerry Cantrell would be one of many.
Words of wisdom from two of the finest men&musicians on the planet. RIP Neil.
These guys have always been the guys next door, as opposed to being rock stars. That's one of the things that we love about them.
Rush is the soundtrack to most every part of my life
Saw Rush at Joe Louis Arena in 1980. It was the Permanent Wave Tour and I was hooked. The tickets sold out in 15 fifteen minutes. The Professor Neil Peart is missed and will never be forgotten. Thank You Rush, for the Music.
And you probably saw them for $10. I saw em in Atlanta’83, Signals Tour, $12.50.
Greatest band ever.
👍💯
In 1975 as a 16 year old Canadian kid, I took my younger brother to see RUSH & Nazareth in concert at the Pacific Coliseum in Vancouver BC, Canada.
Lucky for us we got see each of those two bands play live numerous times thereafter. Each RUSH concert was a whole new experience ; as they always changed things up and never left us disappointed. In 2002, I read "Ghost Rider: Travels on the Healing Road" by Neil Peart and that book had a profound impact on me. He was a not only a great drummer, author and lyricist, but a fine man as well. Alex and Geddy have always impressed me, not only with their great music ,but also their enduring friendship as "goofy" pals (so were my brother & I). I am looking forward to reading "My Effin' Life" by Geddy Lee and hopeful, that someday I will see them play live again( as RUSH or as themselves). When I return home to Canada next year , I will be sure to visit Henderson's Brewery and enjoy a nice cold RUSH! Cheers!🎵
@!GoodBoyChevy Neil's book "Ghost Rider: Travels On The Healing Road" had a huge impact on me as well. Neil also inspired me to start journaling after reading that book. I was so happy to see them tour again & took my children to their first concert in 2002 which was Rush. I have seen them live 16 times on 14 different tours since 1982 when I was 16 which was the first time I had seen them play live. They have never disappointed me either & as a guitarist/musician they have always influenced me to become better & to always keep learning & pushing myself to play things that are difficult and even out of my range at first, until I spend a lot of time practicing. Their catalog of music is still inspiring to this day & I can always learn something new just by re-visiting an old song of theirs or learning an older song by them I wasn't good enough to play years ago but have advanced enough now to do so. Not only did Neil's book "Ghost Rider" influence me, all his books have as I have read every book he has ever written & when he had his web site up & running I use to read his book reviews at "Bubba's Book Club" and have discovered some amazing authors & excellent books by checking out some of the ones he reviewed there. The site was still up the last time I checked with plenty of his older reviews still available to read. Thanks for mentioning his book "Ghost Rider" I always felt it never got the attention it deserved.
I hope that they will export their beer to the U.S. I wonder if its already here?
@@cygnals524 : Thanks for the info and sounds like we would agree on many levels. 🎵👍
@@SDsailor7 perhaps by now you have found the answer and it tastes good.Cheers! 🎵
I bought my first Rush album at the age of 10 and I'm 53 now and I love Rush just as much, the best band ever!.
I'm so fortunate to have spun around the Sun at the same time that these gentlemen were creating all that magic. Forever grateful for their music, charm and fortitude.
Beautifully expressed
I second that emotion!!👌🎸🎹🥁🍺
I stood in terrible pain after a diving accident, for the entirety of the longest concert I've ever been to, to watch the most FLAWLESS band I've ever seen... and I loved every millisecond of it. I was guitarist that was hardcore into RUSH and I watched close... ZERO mistakes. Absolute Perfection. The musicianship is astonishing. I hope they continue - if they want to.
Seen Rush on the Signals tour. We had row Z on the main floor which is the very last row on the floor and when we got there and showed our tickets to the usher he took his little flashlight and looked around on the floor for row Z. There was no row Z so he called someone on his walkie talkie and then he said to follow him. He took us down to the 3rd row center. Needless to say we were freaking out. Turns out that Rush knew and everyone who had tickets for rows Y and Z got the same deal. Great times 😊. YYZ
Once u have Been that close. It ruined you...u have to be close for every subsequent concert...I'm a victim....
That's a great story!! 👍 🥁🎧🎸🎸🎤
The head on the interviewer's beer at the end is an all-time classic
I was noticing the same thing. I think you would do hard jail time if you were served that in Ireland or England. . . :)
@@oftenlucid Certain beers are supposed to be poured that way- to release the CO2.
@@lawrencescottjr1619there is no way any sane person would pour a glass with more than 50% head
Those 3 men worked very hard for what they accomplished. No handouts or help, they did it on their own without whining and complaining. Pure work ethic and devotion to their craft. The world lost a bright light when Neil passed. R.I.P. legend!
so, they did it like most other bands do then. Yes. And as far as hand outs, you have no clue. You were not there. And yes, there was whining and complaining. That is part of it.
Thank you for not only spotlighting,but being respectful to, one of the greatest musical acts of all time, regardless of genre.
#RushRules
#NeilLives
Right on! 😊
RUSH are 3 great guys who offered the best of what human beings can offer. The perfect combination of great playing, wisdom and inspiration that nobody else has ever offered to the world!
My younger brother lovedddd this band. As a 15 year old, he slept outside for concert tickets; I covered for him & brought him & his friends coffee & food. Great band.
Such a great sister 😭
We both covered for each other when necessary. When my folks found out, they were furious @ both of us & almost didn’t let him go to concert; they had a change of heart & let him go.
Gettys voice is done. His last 2 tours were not good vocally. Maybe lip sync his voice. But i wont go see them anymore. He has too many high pitched songs. He cant hit those notes
I feel like I owe so much of how I live my life-with the most emphasis on authenticity, kindness, and excellence-to these men. So happy to have discovered their music in 1983 as a freshman in high school. To see them become esteemed in the world at large is not something I would have ever expected. I, and many of my fellow Rush fanatics, were sometimes ridiculed for loving them, and they were consistently reviled in the music press. Revenge of the nerds, eh? ❤
Rush fan since 1979. Not only was it the music, but the more we learned about them as human beings, the more we loved them. RIP Professor.
I am a lifelong fan of Rush. This was a great interview to see on national TV on a show I never miss. I listen to Rush music every single day. So many times when I am listening to any of their 165 songs I think "This is perfection" or "That which is perfect." Listen to the first 5 minutes of "Xanadu" if you want to hear an example of "That which is Perfect." RIP Neil Peart, you magnificent poet and storyteller. Thank you so much to Alex and Geddy for enriching my life with your wonderful songs! Rush fan until the day I die!
Rush is the only band i have ever seen that played an absolutely perfect set. Flawless and epic.
I would also say they have just about as close to a flawless discography as it comes, which is even more impressive considering they had 19 albums and not one of them was truly bad!
Got to see them twice and was heartbroken at Neil's passing. In knew then 2020 was gonna suck. And Geddy's baseball collection
I first saw Rush back in 1975 when they were the opening band for Blue Oyster Cult. Had never heard their music before that concert. The day after the concert, I went to my local record store and bought every album they had out at the time. They have been my favorite band of all time ever since.
I saw that tour, and the one the next year, too, again opening for BÖC. They held their own, with the Cult, quite the feat. I mean, they didn’t get booed off the stage, like just about everyone else.
And oddly enough on the Power Windows tour, it was BOC opening up for Rush in Binghamton NY!!!😂
Very rare for BÖC to open for anyone. That says a lot about Rush. A lot of good things. I saw BÖC open for Black Sabbath in 1980, although they co-headlined. I didn’t stick around for the Sabs. Seen everyone open for BÖC, 156 shows in 50 years. Never disappointed.
@@martybrilley3406 Then you missed out on seeing Cortland NY's Favorite Son, Ronnie James Padavona Dio!! Dio was awesome and one of the most gracious people I have ever met in the business.
@@spuds6423 Broome County Arena?
As a RUSH fan for 55 years, I appreciate what we had and everytime i put on a Rush album in the year 2023 i think this has always been my band..what a ride Guys.. R.I.P. NEIL...
That was one of the best short interviews of Rush that I've seen in a very long time.
Oh, and Alex is the original co-founders of the band. Geddy came in a bit after. John Rutsey was the original drummer from 1968 - 1974.
Neil then joined and pretty much became the main lyrics, while Alex and Geddy wrote the music.
Rest in peace #johnrutsey and #neilpeart.
I wonder if Geddy and Alex included John Rutsey in the interview discussion, but perhaps mention of Rutsey was edited out for time?
I was wondering if someone was going to point that out, that Neil wasn't the original drummer. To me it's a slight against John. He was on their 1st album for goodness sake. I'm really surprised Geddy and Alex didn't mention him. Shame on them.
GOD BLESS THEM!!! GOD BLESS NEIL PEART❤
?
I wonder if there will be a longer version of this on the internet? It seems like there was much more done for this interview? It was great though! I need more of Alex! ❤
It is a typical 5-7 minute feel good human interest story for the mouth-breathing masses from big media.
Almost worthless in it's formula.
MAD love for Rush. Always have had, always will have.
Geddy and Alex are two if the most genuine folks i've ever seen. Hope you two perform again even if you use several drummers and bill it as RASH or geddy and alex but do a simulcast show someplace ...tape it and give ALL the world a chance to feel the rush.😊
After seeing U2 there, we need an encore, Rush at the Vegas Sphere.
I can only imagine...
I’ll never forget when a friend of mine came over in 1977 with a record he had stolen from his older brother and said “You have GOT to hear this!”…IT was “2112” and I was blown away, it just couldn’t be that three guys were playing this incredible music!
I was instantly hooked and have been a fan ever since.
Like most, I was disappointed when they decided to hang it up, but appreciative of all of the years of amazing music. I was devastated when Neil passed away, such a loss for all who appreciate the epitome of musicianship, and understood when it was initially said Rush will never be again, however, Geddy and Alex are creative artists, and you just don’t turn that off, it is always in them and it had to have an outlet.
If they were to decide to make new music and tour with one of the few premier drummers that could pull it off, I would be more than happy for them and look forward to hearing what they came up with.
I didn't know the history of Geedy's name and his parents. Nice to hear Geddy and Alex talk about life and the band.
His birth name is Gershon Eliezer Weinrib, anglicized to Gary Lee Weinrib then changed to Geddy Lee. In his biography, he writes of the harrowing story of his parents’ time in the concentration camps during the Holocaust.
There's a home movie on CZcams of Alex Lifeson telling his family during a dinner he wanted to be a musician. Said school didn't interest him and they're trying to tell him if he had an education if the music didn't work out he'd have something to fall back on.
@@ryanarborist The title of the Teen Documentary featuring Alex is “Come On Children.”
We, Rush fans, love you. We miss Neil but we miss you too. Seeing both of you on tour would touch all of our hearts. Once again we love you and will always stand with you know matter what you decide to do. Bill
I have always loved RUSH. One of a kind rock band. Party Hardy!
Been jamming to them since 1977. 2112 was my first Rush album and still a favorite. Thank you for this interview and thank you Rush, for great music and inspiration!
Best rock band period!
sorry, it doesn't work that way.
I love those guys, all through my youth and into my adulthood. RIP Neil. we miss you!!!
Love this ... " Do what you believe because if you do what someone else believes and you fail you got nothing.
If you do what you believe and you fail you still have hope." Geddy
They did it exactly how it should be done.
Pure class with humility and Canadian humor 😎
I love them.
Although this interview was far too short, I needed to hear this wisdom from Geddy right now!
An Epic legacy. Canadian National Treasure and the professor on the drum kit.RIP. Neil
Been a bid fan of Rush since the 70’s Great band R.I.P Neil we miss you ❤
As a sixty something huge RUSH fan who started listening to them as a teenager, thanks for doing this story
Those guys were such an awesome part of my youth. So great to see them appreciated.
Geddy so talented je can play bass, peddles, sing and do his laundry all at the same time 😮
Once I found Rush in about 1973, I was in love! I saw them perform in Kansas City, Kansas at Memorial Hall and at Kemper Arena, in KCMO several times over the years. Yes, there were lots of guys there, but lots of girls, too. On stage, their music was loud and clear, the audience singing along with many songs. The lights would go out and the Bics lit up the place, in every direction, thousands! Rush would be wearing blousy light-colored shirts, tight pants, and boots. Geddy's hair looked like mine, and most of my female friends, too. Never a dull concert! Still play Tom Sawyer regularly on You Tube. Miss those who are gone. Wonderful story.
Geddy, Alex, and Neil, thanks for all the wonderful music from the bottom of my heart! Hopefully there may be more to come!
My heart goes out to Neal Peart, to lose his daughter and wife well within one year's time. I cannot imagine, and Geddy's mannerism in recalling it shows what good friends he and Neal were
when I saw the vapor trails tour i literally burst into tears at the first note. which was, tom sawyer. they came back with a vengeance. it was a long wait for us, imagine how long it was for them...
Being a lifelong rush fan from the beginning of the band … they were the “anthem” of my life … I’m so blessed to have been born a time that I could experience and grow with the band. These three guys gave me something to hold on to and filled my soul with the most incredible lyrics … thanks Neil, and rock rhythms that made my soul soar… RUSH forever 😎❤️
The first Rush record I listened to was MOVING PICTURES, it changed me forever!
Great to see this! And I really like Geddy's last line at 7:10, very inspiring and really makes sense :)
Honestly, I would be interested in Geddy buying up some of his old analog synthesizers and doing a completely electronic solo album. I wonder what that would sound like.
The distilled new wave sound would be amazing
So happy you guys did Rush
So awesome to see RUSH on CBS Sunday morning. One of the GOATProgressiveRock bands ever. Too bad they didn't do this interview when Neil Peart was still alive.
I'm 61 and still have the Rush cassettes from 8th grade. I have CDs now.
Please tour ONE LAST TIME! It would be a great way to pay homage to Neil. Constantly projecting him on the video screen and showing him off in many other creative ways during the show. Any drummer who "filled in" would be incredibly thankful that they were allowed to be the sub drummer! Imagine the vibe at these potential shows. Nothing but happiness, gratitude and bliss from both the band and all of the members of the most loyal fan base in rock history (other than the Grateful Dead). PLEASE!!!??? Do a Vegas residency if you don't want to tour. The fans will come....I will , that's for sure!
There is a rumor about Danny Carey from Tool sitting in for them for an album , but a tour or anything else is a mystery.
Vegas residency with top-name guest drummers sitting in?
not gonna happen......mainly due to Geddy not being able to sing the songs in that upper range he used so much........
Yeah, why don't you be even more selfish & entitled while you're stating your needs to be pandered to?
Rush paid all their dues, and then some. Say thanks and be content.
@@gavinvalentino6002 Right on my friend preach the truth! ++Peace & Rock n' Roll 4 Your Soul++ 🤘😉🤘
Saw them three time in the 90s - I’m a lightweight next to their most hardcore fans of course but each time they put on the most astonishing show. Just when you think they couldn’t do something new onstage, they did! First time was 1991, opening night of the RtBs tour in Hamilton Ont and they played like they were at least halfway thru the tour. I ran into my ex-girlfriend a short time later - she was an even bigger fan of theirs than I was and she was green with envy!
Discovering Rush at 11 years old was my first real life revelation, something that happens a very few times in a life span. I was able to see the perform a couple of times. Thank you Lerxst, Dirk and Pratt(RIP)
I shed another tear at the mention of Neil Peart's passing. Still hard to imagine the Professor is gone.
No other band comes remotely close. The music was/is amazing but the love is what keeps me coming back......love you guys and miss Neil dearly. I respect whatever you decide to to.
My very first concert, as a teenage girl :) Cheers!
I've been a Rush fan since 1974 when the first album was released. I first saw them live at B'ginnings in Schaumburg, Il over New Year's '74/'75 when they toured Fly By Night (about 6 months after Neal joined). I'm a bassist and spent the entire show standing directly in front of Geddy. Hooked for life! RIP, Neal.
Neil,Alex,and Geddy.RUSH!!! THE ONE THE ONLY !!! FOREVER
Geddy
@@daves4645 getting old
Getting older is tough. I have been a RUSH fan since 1987's "Hold Your Fire." I was 18 and that was my first time seeing them live. I went to Geddy's solo album signing in 2000 and his "Big Beautiful Book of Bass" signing in 2018, both in NJ.
If they do decide to do some more work together I recommend Gavin Harrison as a drummer. When Neil was alive he thought highly of him. I think he can fill those big shoes.
Neil is irreplaceable. He was more than a drummer. That being said, I hope they do it. I saw the Farewell To Kings & Hemisphere tours. The young kids deserve it.
WOW!!! I just watched RASH/Rush last night now Geddy and Alex are on National TV... It's a great Sunday.
Yes! I have the occasional Rush Saturday night concert fix too. I just smile while watching this trio doing what they do best, and am thankful that I lived in that time to experience it.
Awesome band .I saw them all over south California. Truly A Good band
Say what you want……The classiest rock band ever, and probably the smartest group of guys who happen to be at the pinnacle of playing. When musicians talk about the best, they talk RUSH! Love em or hate em, you cannot say they are the the crème de La Crème of playing instruments. They are the best of the best………❤❤❤! Long live the Rush Galaxy.
We love RUSHR.I.P. Neil Peart🙏🏻RUSH ON!!!!!!!🎶ROCK ON!!!!!!!🤘🏻🤙🏻✌🏻
RUSH WORLDS GREATEST 3PIECE ORCHESTRA🥁🎸🎸🎙🎼🎵🎶
R.I.P. NEIL PEART💔 YOU ARE MISSED. RUSH ON
God bless them. RIP Neil. Grateful. Thank you.
Great interview! What’s next for Rush? Anything they put their mind and hearts too! It’s as simple as that!
The clown princes of Rock. Love these guys. Go check out Dinner with Rush. Always puts the biggest smile on my face.
still 'til this day 2112, hemispheres, farewell to kings, permanent waves , signals, and g/p are some of my favorite albums... production, musicianship , lyrics , and only 3 guys
Nice early Christmas present. Love hearing from my favorite band. ❤
The Greatest Band Ever - @Rush
Awesome my favorite band!
Cannot fully describe what this band has meant to me for decades and how much I love these guys. Prodigies, without a doubt - arguably the greatest 3-man band in history. Trailblazers and master craftsmen with a chemistry worthy of a Nobel prize. I was fortunate to see them live once - many years ago at Lakers Stadium in LA. Unfortunate that it was only once. When I heard of Neil's death I cried like I had lost a part of my soul, no matter that I am a 55 year old married man with two daughters. To hear now that if I ever visit Canada I might see Geddy and Alex in this pub, purchase some Rush beer and mustard - fills me with joy. To hear that there is a chance they will find a drummer and tour again fills me with a mix of hope, apprehension, joy and sadness. I don't envy the drummer who has to step into those impossible shoes but I am sure he/she will be treated with respect and gratitude by most Rush fans.
Thanks CBS. Great piece! I loved how Geddy said "The lesson is be yourself and stick to your guns." It's such an important lesson that Rush teaches so well.
Great interview,thank you. I have to toss out a name Carl Palmer he’s a great drummer and comes from the Prog world.
Whatever they do, I'll be there.
I dealt with Neil Peart several times in my motorcycle business. He was extremely intelligent...witty...charming...and most enjoyable to talk and listen to. I think of him often.
BEST GROUP IN THE GALAXY. Rest in Power, Neil Elwood Peart.
