When Rush concluded their R40 tour in 2015, the many fans of Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson and Neil Peart knew extensive touring was off the agenda. Drummer Neil had indicated his distaste for being on the road. But for almost five years fans hoped for a one-off reunion gig or a festival appearance. With Neil's untimely death in January 2020 at the age of 67, those dreams of a return to live performance were shattered. Across more than 40 years, the power trio that had sold 40 million albums worldwide and played in excess of 2,400 shows around the world were no more. Until 2026, when childhood friends Geddy (singer, bassist & keyboards) & guitarist Alex announced the Fifty Something tour. With previously unseen photos and fan memorabilia, this book brings together over 500 eye witness accounts of Rush live from 1974 to 2015, allowing the reader to recapture the experience of seeing the greatest ever power trio live in action with The Professor behind the drum kit.
