Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson Form Band with Alex Van Halen. New Music & Tour Coming
In a recent conversation with renowned rock journalist, Claude Balzac, Rush guitarist, Alex Lifeson signaled that he and Geddy Lee are ready to make beautiful music together again.
“That conversation sparked something inside of us and we immediately went into the studio and started playing around” said Lifeson “We said hey we should get a drummer, and at that exact moment there was a knock on the studio door. Much to our surprise, it was Van Halen drummer, Alex Van Halen. Coincidentally, his car broke down and he was asking to use the phone. We invited him to jam and it was magic immediately.”

“it sounded so good” said Geddy Lee, “We immediately recorded 2 new songs on the spot and booked a tour for the summer. This is going to be an epic summer. Even if we have to play in a bubble, we are hitting the road. It’s been way too long and this project sounds too good. The people need it and we need it.”
Friends and special guests were invited over to record. Michael Anthony, David Lee Roth, Lady Gaga, Axl Rose, DJ Khaled, Cardi B, that guy from Phish, Bob Dylan, Art Garfunkel and Sly Stone. The new band noted that the following musicians are banned and will not be invited to record or tour: Sammy Hagar, John Mayer, Bruce Springsteen, Bon Jovi and The Weeknd. “No special reason, we just hate them” said Lifeson.
“It was a lot of fun, I really needed this” said Alex Van Halen. “It got a little weird in the studio when DJ Khaled showed up and brought Cardi B with him. He spit all over our good mics and kept screaming his name and she peed on the floor. Things got a little awkward, so I don’t think they will be coming on tour with us.”
Alex Lee Van Rushen
The name of the band will be ‘Alex Lee Van Rushen’. The touring band will rotate but will consist of multiple bass players, drummers and more. Kind of like a Progressive Metal Grateful Dead. An extravaganza, if you will. For the first leg of the tour, the lineup will be Axl Rose on lead vocals, Geddy Lee on bass/vocals/keys, Alex Lifeson on guitar, Alex Van Halen on drums, Michael Anthony on bass/vocals, Stevie Nicks on tambourine/vocals and Slash on guitar/flugelhorn.

Alex Van Halen On Drums Was An Excellent Choice ! Axl Rose On Vocals ? Terrible Decision. More Thought Should Have Been Applied. Vocals Can Make Or Break You.

What did Sammy do to be hated by Alex Lifeson?
