Hummel Creations Compiles Rush's 29-Year-First Full 2112 Performance From Multi-Cam Fan Footage

Q: After this massive tour, will Rush record new music with their revamped lineup?

There is no confirmed plan for Rush to record new music after the “Fifty Something” tour, but the door is open. The reporting around the tour shows the band’s immediate focus is on the live comeback itself: celebrating Rush’s catalog, honoring Neil Peart, and rotating a large set of classic material with Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson, drummer Anika Nilles, and keyboardist Loren Gold. Everything publicly announced so far centers on performance, not studio work. That said, Geddy Lee has suggested new music is possible. In comments tied to the reunion, he said the project began with jamming, so recording could happen, while also making clear nothing is decided and that the band wants to see how it feels after a long run on the road. Alex Lifeson echoed that uncertainty in a joking but telling way, indicating the chemistry and stamina of the touring cycle will matter. So the best evidence points to a wait-and-see situation. Rush have not announced studio sessions, an album, or songwriting plans with the revamped lineup. If new music happens, it will likely depend on how Lee and Lifeson feel after the 88-show tour and whether the current lineup develops into a lasting creative unit rather than remaining a touring configuration.

Hummel Creations stitched together a multi-camera video of Rush’s full 20-minute “2112” performance from fan-shot clips captured at the Kia Forum this week.
The edit followed Rush’s first complete live run-through of the seven-part suite in 29 years, after the band had played only shortened versions since its last full outing in Ottawa in 1997.
About 18,000 fans were at the Los Angeles show, and the abundance of smartphone footage made the compilation possible in a way that was rare for concerts before YouTube and the iPhone era.
Rush returns to the Forum on June 11 before continuing its Fifty Something tour across North America in 2026 and South America and Europe in 2027.
