The Kossoff has the non-locking Kahler. The 64 had a locking Kahler up until 88 or so. Then it was replaced with a Floyd.

Lovely that they photographed the Kossoff and the '64 together. The '64 almost returned to active duty in 2013, but at the end, it didn't.

I think the SG was a factory bigsby. It got removed in 2005. Regarding the Destroyer, the neck pickup got uncovered before the guitar got broken. Uncovered neck pickup and no stripe.

Not true. He is not a member with decisive power, however, his holdings company is still in there. So, he is getting paid, but can't make any decisions. So, it's a grey area. What is for sure is that Simon is a touring member and not a full time member. At least on the financial front.

No. It was dropped and broken after the neck pickup was uncovered. There are pictures with uncovered neck pickup but no stripe.

TBH, she has a lot of that Neil feel. And was recomended by Skully, Geddy's long-time guitar tech (recently works for Joe Satriani too), who worked for Jeff Beck when Anika was playing with him. He should know how Rush's drums should sound like.

A little joke... So many bands replaced drummers in 2025 that Rush decided to replace theirs, who passed 5 years ago and bring the band back to life. But really, how many drummers have been swapped this year. I have never seen anything like this.

Well, they didn't play the farewell card... Them saying that after Neil passed is understandable, as is them not touring as Neil didn't want to past 2015. So, I wouldn't crucify them in the same vain as Phil Collins, Kiss and Scorpions deserve to be with their cash grab farewells. As I said...

Pros: - Well, the fact that Neil's wife and daughter are supporting this. - There will be an additional keyboard player, therefore ditching the power trio format, which was only possible with Neil. - They will be finally playing live again. Cons: - Calling this Rush. Should be Lee & Lifeson IMO.

Also, Jan's Mesa preamp is gone. He is using IICP (2C+) and Bogner Ecstasy Synergy module preamps instead.

A backup. It used to be a Kemper as a backup, but it seems like they switched to Neural. Also, from that photo, it's clear now that the Birthday Strat and California Series Strat had their pickguards swapped mid-tour.

Bought the 1975 edition. An early birthday present for myself.

If they combine video shots from 2 different years, this would be an even bigger video editing shitshow than usual.

That doesn't work. If they have 2 concerts in a row, they follow that with 2 days off. If 2nd date in Paris happens, it will be on 21st. Also, I doubt they will do long-distance travel just before recording the show. I'd imagine they will want to prepare for as many days as possible at La...

Hellfest.

I think this point is actually the first time they haven't got plans for the future after 2026 yet. They always planned 2 years in advance, but I think not this time.

I honestly think Maiden wil go the Rolling Stones way. That means 20-25 gigs per year. I think a good indicator of that is Bruce ramping up his solo career.

Actually, watching Dortmund 83, the bridge pickup on The Holy Goldtop was changed mid- World Piece Tour. It has a Black one in Dortmund already.

SOAD is a very specific case IMO. No new music and very few shows in last few years due to internal politics (Serj wanting to do it as little as possible and Daron's ego, but the band knows that it could be only 4 of them and noone can replace anyone, so they changed their approach to the band).

So, Bruce's hair will again magically change and each guitarist will play at least 2 different guitars.
