ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAMER GEDDY LEE ANNOUNCES INTIMATE SPOKEN WORD TOUR IN DECEMBER

Geddy Lee returns to the UK in December for a spoken word tour to celebrate the release of his memoir ‘My Effin Life’ and the tour will see the Rush singer/bassist bring his memoir to life

The evening promises to be an extraordinary experience, a once-in-a-life-time event. After the curtain rises, Geddy Lee will give his fans a peek into the very fabric of his life: from a deep reflection into his family and childhood, to a steep dive into the history of Rush; from the determined pursuit of music, to the personal memories of his life-long friends and band-mates Alex Lifeson and Neil Peart.

Joined on stage by a special guest interviewer, Geddy Lee will be reading key passages from his forthcoming book My Effin’ Life; he will then share thoughts and stories taken from his experience. Furthermore, fans will then have the chance to participate in a special Q&A, with Geddy Lee answering their questions directly.

When asked about his memoir the legend comments: “Writing this book has meant spending so much time living in the past”. Lee continues: “I’ve never lived my life looking anywhere but forward, which is why I resisted doing this kind of thing for so long. Being in a band all those years was reassuring because it was an ongoing thing. It felt like it was forever. There was always unfinished business: the next record, the next set design, the next tour. It’s been the theme of my life. But you need a lot more determination to proceed in the world of music without the comfort of your bandmates, and I can only hope that finishing this book will release me to return to what I do and love best”.

The tour will kick off in Wolverhampton and will end in London, with North American dates to be announced. 

Each UK ticket purchased will include a copy of the book via the tour partners Waterstones (www.waterstones.com). Full dates are below and tickets will be available on https://www.rush.com/geddylee/
