Lorraine Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 I'd see 'Leefson' with pleasure and I'd like they added a great keyboards player to the line up to refresh the formula at that point and have no boundaries on stage (if any hasn't been already crossed...)But I don't think I would cross 'the pond' for them, hoping for a good European reception of the project and a tour in a 500/700 miles radius around. I'm almost afraid to ask if that's supposed to be Rick Wakeman? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lorraine Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Yes, it's true he is a keyboard genius, but he doesn't quite look the way I remember him. More than ever I think that aging is a cruel and heartless bad joke nature plays on us. And it always starts just when we finally have it all together. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That One Guy Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Hard to vote Oh go ahead! You can't go wrong. It's either no or NO!!!. Win/win either way. ;)I mean I would love to see a Rush show with just Geddy and Alex if Neil didn't want to. Catch being a name change would be required.

Blue J Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 For whatever reason, I just can't see Geddy playing on a stage with any other musicians than Al and Neil. Neil either, but that's for a different reason. Alex I can see making guest live appearances, with random other bands. But not Geddy. Those three guys in Rush, they've always belonged together, belonged to one another. And I think they've always known that. And I'm glad for it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leefson played YYZ with Taylor Hawkins and it was glorious. He even played it at the right speed unlike a certain clown-nosed grump. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GabesCavesOfIce Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 (edited) Neil is stunning amazing and awesome, but... Alex and Geddy are 100% Rock Gods. How is this even a question? Of course you go. If drums are your thing, I get it. But for those of us who prefer guitar n bass... Sit at home or see two thirds of Rush. Tough choice, hmmmmm.Edit , I'm referring to Leefson, as the Rush name should be retired. . Edited August 5, 2015 by Gabrielgil513 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troutman Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 No way, I would go see the other two members with differerent bands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAccountant Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 I don't see it happening. Remember in "Beyond the Lighted Stage" Geddy discussed this and indicated that he did not want to be in Rush without either one of the other 2. If they did play together it would not be Rush - not as we know it and likely it would not be called Rush. And I do not think they would play together. I think they might try different solo projects however. But if they did play together would I see it?? Perhaps. But I don't think it will happen.

TexMike Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Thought about it. I'd feel a bit conflicted, but I'd go If they got someone really good. I would go in already knowing it wasn't gonna be AS good as with Neil. But Al and Ged are still worth paying to see and I'd judge it on whether they put on the best show they could WITHOUT Neil. But as said by others, it will never happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theredtamasrule Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 While there are plenty of drummers with more chops than Peart no one plays like him and merely copying him would be a pale imitation of the original. It'd be like watching a tribute band...good musicians themselves but not quite the real thing. That's when Rush plays state fairs with Styx and Foghat. Gag.

Chicken hawk Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Rush is a trio...Neil, Geddy, and Alex.Even tho i have gone to concerts that members have been replaced.....Rush is more unique and i just couldnt. Hell they wouldnt do that anyhow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xanadu Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Nope. There is no Rush without Neil.Agreed. It's why I don't own the debut album. Hey their debut is pretty good and very underrated Yes sir. I enjoy it for what it is. Not fair to compare what came after it to it, IMHO. That said, I would totally see Geddy and Alex. It's not like those two are completely worthless without Neil.
