Pretty good going!
To be honest I was a massive fan up to Power Windows but didn't like their direction after that. Having said that, Clockwork angels was pretty darned good.
I hope Geddy keeps playing, him and Billy Sheehan being my favourite bass players

Almost certainly but I'm glad they've called it that. It won't be Rush without Peart so don't call it as such. Be good to hear what they put out!
If "Queen" had done the same I might've had a touch of respect for them ... might ...

What a career, 40-something years and no real dud album in their entire back catalogue. I'm not sure I could say that of anyone else.
Sad news in a way, but I don't actually mind seeing a band retire gracefully. A few more should follow their example.
But also as many have said glad they retiring with dignity intact. 2112 will always be a defining album for me.
What a career, had a few vastly different eras that were a success and one of the best live bands around. The sounds they produce from just 3 guys is remarkable. No backing tracks in sight either!
If you haven't watched Beyond the Lighted Stage I would thoroughly recommend doing so, its tells the stories from the beginning and is full of funny and interesting little stories. The band does seem just like 3 good friends making music together, no drama, no upsets, nothing but class.
They are my guilty pleasure music; they get lumped in with prog rock and not a category I generally enjoy but Rush showed some humour and the ability to actually rock ( in a make you want to jump up and down and play air guitar kinda way ). Good to bow out and not split acrimoniously or flog a dead horse when you already own a holiday home in Malibu type deal.

Each of them can pretty much do what they like now.
