Rush Returns with New Drummer and Classic Energy

Rush is back on the road for their Fifty Something Tour, their first since Neil Peart’s passing in 2020 and the first in 7 years, selling out everywhere with 58 shows across the U.S. and Mexico. Opening with a surprise “Xanadu,” they deliver nearly three-hour sets packed with classics and deep cuts, including a stunning Aimee Mann duet on “Time Stand Still.” At 72, Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson still command the stage with their signature energy and sound. Drummer Anika Nilles, 43, has stepped into Peart’s legendary shoes with electrifying precision, earning roaring cheers. Vintage footage honors Peart during key songs, while lasers and pyro revive the classic Rush concert experience — a triumphant, emotional return for fans who’ve waited years to see the band live again.
