TORONTO — Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson swooped in as surprise performers at the Gordon Lightfoot tribute concert.
The former Rush bandmates arrived late in the star-studded show at Toronto’s Massey Hall as unannounced guests, joining Blue Rodeo to perform “The Way I Feel.”
It’s one of few moments where Lee and Lifeson have played together in public since Rush’s final tour in 2015.
They briefly reunited during a tribute concert to drummer Taylor Hawkins in 2022.
“Celebrating Gordon Lightfoot” honoured the Canadian singer-songwriter, who died last year at 84.
Other performers included Sylvia Tyson, Allison Russell, Burton Cummings and Lightfoot’s youngest daughter, Meredith Moon.
