Rush Reunites: Lee & Lifeson Honor Peart

0:00It's April 5th. Music news. Today starts now. AI powered and always on B. Getty Lee and Alex Lifeson are hitting the road under the rush name for their 50-something reunion tour, kicking off in June in Los Angeles. Drummer Anika Nils steps in for the late Neal part and Lee is straight up defending the call to keep the band name alive. They used to swear off touring as rush without port, but now they're set to play 40 rush songs over more than 50 shows. Lee put it bluntly, what else would you call a set, packed with their classics? Fans have mixed feelings since rush ended years ago without part, but Lee's family gave the green light. He admits it'll hit hard playing those songs without their original drummer on kit. The duo wrestled hard over ditching the name they built for 50 years, calling other options like Lee and Lifeson present the music of, Just. Silly, instead, they're owning it. Every show will include tributes to part, keeping his spirit front and center so it feels right, not rushed.
