If the 35 shows are it this is a Wussy Tour. "Our last big tour of this Magnitude", The Who are playing over 50 gigs, Scorpions have over 60 scheduled, Yes usually plays over 60 a year. There are many more examples than just these bands. Dont get me wrong I'm sure the concert will be Great just dont want to hear how this is a Huge tour. It's Not.

No offense on the Who.It's the Roger and Pete show.

 

Now if Rush fans want the Geddy and AL Variety hour, I'm sure that can be arranged.

I don't believe for second that this is the only leg of this tour.

I mentioned to a few RUSH friends of mine that basically this is not our first rodeo with this... and we usually end up seeing a second leg / more dates.

 

AFTER these R40 dates they will say something like,

'we've spent the last few 4 or 5 months preparing and touring, and we are not getting any younger. We are going to take the rest of the year off and enjoy the holidays and see what next year brings.'

Then around the holidays we will start to hear rumors that they are going to ANNOUNCE something in early 2016. The rumors will consist of more N. American dates and probably a short stint in Europe (or vice versa).

 

Then mid winter of 2016 they will make an announcement:

'on the success and enjoyment of touring for R40 we have decided to extend it into 2016.'

I bet they add 15 (or so) more dates in N. America (probably hitting cities like Cleveland, that have been good to them over the years) and 15 or so major European cities (probably the 'standard' cities one would think of).

 

They will do the N. American and European dates, finishing in the fall of 2016.

On that they will say, 'we have spent the last year touring (even though it was a couple of 4 month stints in a 14 to 16 month span) we are now going to enjoy the holidays with our families, take a year off, and see what the future holds for us and the band.'

 

At that point i would think, outside of some sort of special projects - movie soundtracks or maybe a single or two... THAT will be the end of RUSH as we know them.

 

I don't think they will every say 'FINAL TOUR' it's not their style, but I don't think this 30+ date leg is really the end.

Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you're wrong lol

I concur.

If Rush was a stock I would sell it.

They have peaked as a business.

I think "of this magnitude" means just that. This tour is the last tour of this size that we're going to get. Even though it's only 35 dates, anything after it will be smaller or nothing at all.

I just copyrighted

"This Magnitude- Rush Live in Tulsa 2015"

So none of you Bootleggers get any ideas

These days, very few older bands are playing with all original members, like Rush (IMO, Neil counts as an original member).

 

Yup. There's Neil, and then there was that other drummer they tried out for awhile :gumby:

I think you're about right! However. i think they will include south America and Mexico in that 2nd leg announcement.

According to Neil and Alex they tried to work in Cleveland but it didn't work out with their route schedule or something. This will be the only leg and L.A. will be the last show.

 

I haven't heard this… when/where did they definitively say these things?

I read that too. It was some interview with Alex.
