Rush has announced tour dates for the band’s fortieth anniversary tour. They’re going to kick things off on May 8 in Tulsa, Oklahoma and end in Los Angeles on August 1. “This will most likely be their last major tour of this magnitude,” the group said in a press release. Rush guitarist Alex Lifeson told Rolling Stone, “I’ve always wanted to do some rarer Rush material…and this should be a good opportunity to do that.”
