It’s been more than 50 years since we first heard the mean, mean stride of Alex Lifeson, Neil Peart, and Geddy Lee, and Rush’s influence on rock in that time has been incalculable. In a livestream from Art Boutiki, R50, “The Premiere Rush Tribute Band,” pay homage to that heavy half-century, promising to represent all eras of the Toronto rockers, from their proggy ‘70s work, to the “Tom Sawyer” years of the ‘80s, all the way through the band’s 2012 finale Clockwork Angels. While the original power trio may never grace the stage again, R50 are ready to catch the mist, the myth, the memory AND the drift.
