Earlier this month, Rush announced that they would be hitting the road for the first time in over a decade. In a new interview with CBC News, Geddy Lee opened up about how he is preparing for their upcoming tour.
When asked if he misses hearing the sound of a roaring crowd, Lee responded:
“Actually, no. It never answers my mind, to be frank. The one thing I miss about touring is actually the job itself and that marvelous feeling of being in the middle of a 10-minute song and you’re caught up on your playing and you’re trying your best and everything is working and all your bandmates are clicking. It’s that adrenaline that I miss. I had kind of settled into a nice life without the roar of the crowd, and I think I adjusted pretty well to it. But, of course, I’ll be very happy to hear that once again.”
Physical toll of Rush touring
He went on to address the physical toll of touring and how he is gearing up for Rush’s upcoming shows.
“I’m getting ready. I’ve been playing diligently for about a year and a half now. And it wasn’t that we had planned this tour that long ago. I had just decided that after writing all these books and having the experience of doing television shows that I needed to make some music again,” Lee said.
“So I’ve been working out pretty regularly trying to get my fingers, these little digits, back in shape. And, of course, since we did make the decision to tour, I’m hitting the gym pretty hard, and so is Alex [Lifeson]. But we’re gonna be ready. We’re working at it. We’re gonna put a lot of hours into that.”
