They may tour more for income. I am quite sure the guys do not need " more income". You always need more income. I believe Neil said as much once stating if he was to maintain his current lifestyle, he would have to continue touring. That's paraphrased. At roughly 28 million net worth for each of them, if he needs more income he is blowing it faster than he can make it. Its been known to happen. I don't know. He said it, not me. Not to mention that 28 million net worth usually isn't what it sounds like. Ummmm....28 million is sounding pretty good to me. But I'm a mere serf in this fuedal kingdom.

NYM86 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 I hope not because The Garden is a pretty wimpy way for a hard rock band to go out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That One Guy Posted August 23, 2012 Author Share Posted August 23, 2012 This album made me realize that they're old, and they're not gonna be touring forever. Geddy's voice is already a stretch as it is. Due to them not coming to my city (2nd year in a row..), I was going to skip this years' tour. I've had a complete 180 on that idea, and i'll be trekkin I-15 to Vegas come the day after thanksgiving. Unfortunately, I can't buy a ticket until Sept. 1st. I'd like to assume that due to the hilarious prices, they won't be selling out anytime soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right anything can happen. Plus there's plenty of rockers around who've continued to make music in their mid 60s - if they can then certainly Rush can.

JohnnyBlaze Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 QUOTE (That One Guy @ Aug 23 2012, 02:24 AM) Rush has been in a habit of making one album every five years now. Is it REALLY a habit (of making an album every 5 years) if they only TRULY did it twice [VT-->S&A--->CA]? Think about it: Presto--->RTB (2 years), RTB--->Counterparts [2 years], Counterparts--->T4E [3 years]. I don't count T4E--->VT due to the circumstances surrounding that time.

losingit2k Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 (edited) I think we'll very well know when its there Farewell album. I believe RUSH will just come out and say that infamous line" This will be our last studio album and the following will be our Farwell to Fans tour!"

That One Guy Posted August 23, 2012 Author Share Posted August 23, 2012 Who knows what'll happen, right? Maybe one of these years Neil will wanna get out of this and spend as much time raising his daughter as he can. Or maybe natural causes will be the killer of Rush.

Jomboni Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 I think they've said that they don't see themselves announcing their retirement ahead of time, they'll just decide one day to throw in the towel. Maybe they would set up a farewell tour at that point, but as far as albums go I don't think they're even thinking about whether they're going to make another one or not until they finish this tour. (Personally I do think this will be the last album) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tick Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 I have said it before and I'll say it again. Is this Rush's last studio album? Yes. Is it there last tour? No way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
