It took ~5 years for them to reboot the band with a girl drummer KWABhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=koiX_Wspatw
>Only playing fucking America
>>127984282They only played in America on R40 because Alex is a decrepit old man with arthritis hands, so I assume that's still a concern. It's funny that he seemed pretty adamant about not touring again as late as last year.
>>127984245Alex and Geddy have said in many interviews that they still play Rush stuff and jam together so it was inevitable.I don't know anything about this new drummer though. Some people thought they were going to get Danny Carey because he played with Geddy in the Taylor Hawkins tribute concert.
>>127984245They stopped touring in 2015 and their last album was 2012 so it's more like 10 years.
>>127984335I have no problem with them playing Rush music as Alex and Geddy but using the Rush name without Neil feels empty considering he was a major part of every single album except for the first one. I want them to keep writing more songs but I feel like Rush should've been retired as a brand.
rush was a band that was only liked by male nerds. those concerts will be boomer sausage fests
>>1279844835 years since Neil died
>>127984531On the one hand they were Rush well before Neil joined and should theoretically have every sentimental right to use the name, but on the other hand Neil was such a vital part of what they became that it just feels weird. Wouldve been funny if they homaged one of Geddy’s old tshirts and called thenselves “Rash”.
>>127984245Blame Dave Grohl. Luckily I saw Rush back in 2003
>>127984335It's a chick named Anika
>make a post on r/rush saying im happy for geddy and alex but Im personally sad to see them move on from neil and wanted to know that anyone else feeling that way isnt the only one>immediately gets deletedI hate reddit toxic positivity censorship shit
>>127985271based mods
>>127985271>make a post on r/rushshiggy
>>127984825Actually I'm surprised they didn't just get Dave. You just know he'd sign on in a heartbeat.
>>127985609He must be still recovering from that cheating scandal last year. Had a kid with his side piece.
>>127984564prog rock as a whole is exclusively a male nerd genre (and that's a good thing)
>>127984245>>127984311>Alex is a decrepit old man with arthritis handsi dont understand how anybody could get excited for that. basically broken down elderly people playing music. thats whats wrong with rock that you have too many bands with people that are in the 70-80+ age bracket
>>127984564That's exactly what elitists like. Music for dudes by dudes.
