After a hugely successful 2007 tour, the fans have spoken and they want more. Rush officially announced dates for their extended 2008 Snakes & Arrows World Tour. The tour will kick off with their first ever appearance in San Juan, Puerto Rico April 11 and hit over 45 cities throughout the United States and Canada. For Rush fans this will be the first time in over a decade the band will make stops in Orlando, Oklahoma City, New Orleans, Reno, Moline, Boise, Austin, Regina and Winnipeg to name a few. Also for the first time in years the band will play Albuquerque, Edmonton, Vancouver, Hershey and Manchester.
Since releasing its self-titled debut album in 1974, RUSH has been universally regarded as one of the most inventive and exciting groups in rock, famed for virtuoso musicianship, epic soundscapes, and dramatic lyricism. The band’s extraordinary body of work – which includes such acclaimed works as 1976’s 2112, 1981’s Moving Pictures, 1996’s Test for Echo, and 2002’s Vapor Trails – has achieved worldwide sales exceeding 35 million units.
A SNAKES AND ARROWS LIVE CD will be released on April 8, 2008. In addition, the track "Malignant Narcissism" from the band’s 2007 release “Snakes & Arrows” (Anthem/Atlantic) was nominated for a Grammy Award in the category Best Rock Instrumental Performance.
Fans will experience the technical virtuosity and hard-rocking compositions they have come to expect from Rush members, Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson, and Neil Peart. In addition the band will update their set list for the 2008 tour.
Don’t miss the RUSH Snakes & Arrows World Tour as it stops in Toronto on July 9th at The Molson Amphitheatre.
