On the second day of their Fifty Something Tour, which took place at the Kia Forum in California on June 9, fans got a special gift when Rush decided to play the entirety of the rock epic "2112," which is over 20 minutes long. The last time the band played "2112" in its entirety was on July 4, 1997, in Ottawa, Canada, as reported by Stereogum.
In the comments of one fan's video, reactions included, "Never would have thought they would play the entire SIDE A of 2112 ever again. Speechless," and "They played the whole thing. Unbelievable. And it was amazing.70 is the new 30." There were also many comments praising the band's new drummer, Anika Nilles, who joined for the Fifty Something Tour in place of the late drumming legend, Neil Peart, who died in 2020.
While Rush hasn't performed "2112" all at once in 29 years, they have played parts of the iconic song many times. Along with the beloved track, Rush's second show of the tour also included other songs they haven't performed in many years, including "Leave That Thing Alone," "Witch Hunt," "The Analog Kid," and more.
