Toy Story 3 would have ended the Toy Story franchise perfectly. They ruined what would have been a perfect ending by making Toy Story 4. As a huge Rush fan for decades, I feel as if they are making a "Toy Story 4" with this 2026 tour and ruining what would have been a perfect ending with Neil Peart, which was a "Toy Story 3" ending.

Ive seen em every tour since 78 and well,,, it died W/Neil! Sorry I'd think about going but 400.00 a ticket!! OUCH! I'll just remember them as they were. I saw the Van Halen Tour when they got back to gether and wished I saved my money! Ya it was that BAD! We almost walked out! I don't want to spend that kind of money and feel the same way., she might be great & all but, Sorry Boys, i'll sit this one out. P.S. My kit was modeled after the 82 World Tour set Neil played on

No Neil, no Rush. Now it's a new band. Rush was a monolith. Until now. They should change the band's name in memory of Neil. It's great that they want to play and create, but this is no longer Rush!

Should be called “The Golden Fleece Tour”! Big fan but unfortunately the tickets on sale to the fans are round the edges! Some of the most expensive tickets I have ever seen. Big fan for almost 50 years but this is ridiculous. It’s not the way to say goodbye to the most loyal fans ever!

Now they’re a novelty act, great. Show Neil some respect and stop calling yourselves Rush. It died with him.

Does she have Neil's philosophical understanding that drove his chops for lyrical emphasis? My concern is she probably does not.

She's not on any of the new promo material. Soooooo

I used to live near Chicago as a child early 1970's now I live in the South. Sometimes I wake Up in the Middle of the Night 🌃, Chewing on my Pillow wishing it was a Chicago Style Hot Dog and a Pork Tenderloin Sandwich, at The Same Time…

I wish they wouldn't call themselves Rush.

It's not Rush. It's Lee and Lifeson play an evening of Rush.

She’s amazing. Obviously to even be considered she has the power and speed required and that goes without saying. What separates her tho is 2 fold. She has the feel …touch and texture combined with the guts not to copy Neil, but has the talent and charisma to honor him stylistically and doing her own thing. The stars have aligned and expect nothing less than magic. When Sir Paul McCartney calls you and says you need to tour again and gives Anika the stamp of approval you listen.

Thanks for the update. But, not interested at all. This will NOT be "RUSH", and they new better when they said they wouldn't (and Neil said they shouldn't…"watch it die."). And, anyone who's heard Geddy sing in the last 10+ years knows that as well. It's a pale shadow, and a rather pathetic money grab.

Not SENRI KAWAGUCHI or MURATA TAMU but not too shabby a gal Drummer eh ….
@KawlinRolfe

What's her name?! (I know it was mentioned in the video but nobody puts it in print) Anika Nilles <– Cool drummer btw

I have been listening to he for two weeks,I’m not impressed.

I was a die hard Rush fan for over 40 years. I have Starman tattooed on my chest. I will have no part of this new abomination and cash grab.
Geddy Lee is a disloyal liar and a greedy bastard. In multiple interviews he stated he would not tour as Rush without Neil. Now he is adding members and calling the band "Rush". I guess he learned a lot from another soul-less Greedy bastard, Gene Simmons.
I am sickened by this, I never thought Geddy and Alex could betray me so badly.

Take a 2nd mortgage to pay for the tickets, that is if you have a house

Rush touring without neil??
Money $$ its a business. No integrity……same for acdc with angus as only original member. Or bon jovi with 7 members in the band! Etc etc. MUSIC BUSINESS = $$

Im so fortunate to have seen rush 3 times in my 24 years of life. How amazing it was to see the professor. However I will be equally excited if I get the chance to see them again re assembled

Oh yeah that girl is so cool! Congrats!
@davidcallahan3099

She might be better than the OG Mr. Peart. No disrespect to him. But I've followed her for a bit, and have been blown away. Perfect choice

Loved them, but will not go to see. Ticket prices are crazy. Sorry, Neil.

Price gouging. Folks are having a hard time these days making ends meet. All RUSH fans have already seen them play. Should be a discount without The Professor.

They should have taken their time replacing Neil ! As a drummer I’ve studied her style! I’d be surprised if she can qualify! Personally Mike Mangini would have been the perfect replacement! Study them both and you will agree! He’s very technical and would be a great writer! Sorry guys but to feel the shoes of a drumming master! You need a master!!

RUSH was Peart. Peart was RUSH. They were a garage band before him. They are a cover band after him. And Geddy hasn't been able to sing in this millennium. It's genuinely hard to listen to.
Just nope.
