For once (and thanks to a fellow fan on Ravelry) I am on top of Rush news! Here’s an excerpt of the press release:
... The Time Machine Tour is an evening with Rush, where they will perform their classics, give a taste of the future – and for the first time ever – feature the Moving Pictures album live in its entirety.
The band is currently working on their 20th studio album with producer Nick Raskulinecz ... and in addition to their classics plan to showcase a few new tunes live this summer.
“We were off for a year and a half, and now it's just pouring. Everything is totally crazy and there's not a minute left in the day. We've got these half-dozen songs, and we'll probably go in the studio and work on a couple of them and see how it goes, perhaps release something – and I say perhaps – and then we plan on being on the road,” says guitarist, Alex Lifeson.
Currently their site’s splash page has been replaced with a graphic announcing the tour, with tour dates and venues listed below. I sure hope I can make it to a show!
Thanks for the info
I passed it on to a friend who's a big Rush fan. I also told Lew about it, and he's intrigued. Hhhmmmm.....
It would be fun ...
... albeit logistically challenging, to have a mini–meetup at the show. I’m 0 for 2 at it so far, but would be happy to try again with you guys if you end up going. Dunno if we’ll be going, yet.
Sounds intriguing
I'll discuss the logistics with Lew.
