Geddy Lee recently sat down with Music Radar to discuss preparations for the band's upcoming Fifty Something tour, and was asked about the possibility of any new Rush material coming down the pike. Geddy mentions that he and Alex are too busy right now trying to learn 40-ish Rush songs to fill out the setlist to be actively thinking about new music - at least for now:

... "My intent, before we got into this celebration of Rush's history, was to put some music together ... Now, I assumed I would be doing that on my own, not with Alex, but when we started jamming, I started seeing the possibility of doing something with Alex - but all of that went on hold now because there's too much work. There's too much work to do for this tour to even think about that. But if we manage to survive the tour, and go back to Canada and have a rest, who knows what'll happen, but I suspect some music will eventually come out. ... After I finished my book tour, in early 2024, I was hungry for a new project, and I decided that my next project was gonna be musical, some kind of musical project," he says. "So I was getting my fingers in shape again. I was writing lyrics, and I was pretty happy to do that, and my fingers needed some attention. When Al got wind that I was prepping for something, he just called me, said, 'Hey, let's jam.' I said, 'Yeah, great. Come on over' ... My basses were lonely downstairs in my studio without my company," he says. "And when Al got wind that I was prepping for something, he just called me, said, 'Hey, let's jam.' I said, 'Yeah, great. Come on over.' So, we fucked around, recorded some stuff for fun, jammed. And at the end of that jam, it was like, 'Hey, let's play a Rush song. Let's see if we can remember this song. We pulled out a song, we started playing it. We fucked it up, of course." ...

He also did not rule out involving new drummer Anika Nilles:

... Yeah, especially if Anika can still stand us! [Laughs] It would be fun to see what she can do in a creative situation," says Lee. "Like, that would be fun. But it's all speculation until it isn't, so ...

He also had a little to say about the recently announced Grace Under Pressure 40th anniversary box set:

... Terry called Alex and I, and he said, 'Guys, I'd like to remix this record. What do you think?' I said, 'Sure. Have at it!' Nothing to lose, everything to gain," says Lee. "It's not gonna change that version that fans love. But it's another take, and I think it sounds great. I think he did a great job because he is a good producer, and because Peter Henderson did a terrific job recording that record, it's kind of a win-win.
