I couldn’t make the Toronto shows for Rush because of a planned UK trip (but did mange to use my Amex to snag Front of the Line seats for a friend).

But LOL given the presale opened six minutes ago, doesn’t look like the Chicago show is likely either

Geddy Lee at the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum. He donated over 200 baseballs signed by greats from those leagues.

The thing about him (and all the members of Rush) isn’t just that they are/were preternaturally talented, but they’re just goddamn genuinely outstandingly decent human beings.

Daaaaaamn, I know he’s got some flaws to his game but 1.5m for a 20 goal scorer is outstanding work

This is the drummer that will be touring with Geddy and Alex and trying to fill Neil Peart’s gigantic GOAT shoes, and she (indeed!) is BAD ASS

A Connor McDavid extension and a Rush reunion tour announcement.

The greatest player in the world and the greatest band in this (and every other) universe.

Coincidence? I think not.
