Yeah read the same. Glad I got to see R40 Tour, they had said it was their last BIG tour which left hope of some smaller gigs and maybe more music. But his comments made it sound final.

I bought my first rush album over forty years ago. Those guys have been on an amazing rollercoaster. while I hate to see the news, these guys have worked harder than anyone else in the business. Three guys.

Amen to that - my first concert was 2112 in KS - I was 13 and went with my older brother and his buddy....amazing show. I have been to 14 of their shows since...every one an amazing display of musical talent.

I started going to Rush concerts during the Moving Pictures tour. Pretty much went to every tour concert up to Presto. Now I watch their live performance vids. They will be missed.
