When you’ve taken on one hell of a gig and know that the guy she’s replacing was one of the hardest hitters on top of being a technical master. This is the best photo of Anika Nilles yet with Rush.

If you haven’t seen this, take a minute and listen to this. This is the best percussion performance I have seen maybe ever but it’s been a long time. Thank you rush.

RUSH is back! New drummer Anika Nilles nails it, and the joy and happiness in Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson is palpable.

[AllieJade @AllieJade1]

Anika's got some big shoes to fill!
I'd say she's stepping into them nicely, wouldn't you?

[Andrew Holland 🇨🇦 @Andrew__Holland]

Great to see Geddy and Alex have fun and Annika breathe fresh air into them

Rush on their second night night of a four night stay and the Los Angeles Forum swapped 9 songs and also played 2112 in its entirety. Rush has never done anything like that before. I've seen them every year since 1978 and I'm blown away at how good they are now, much better than the last several tours. Their new drummer, Neil's replacement, Anika, is beyond amazing. She's brought a freshness to the band, and you can see it in Alex and Geddy. Also a shout to the their added keyboardist and backup vocals @lorengold

I don’t know how Anika Nilles does it.

I really don’t.

Basically - night after night, it’s going to be her under a microscope, in front of thousands of @rushtheband fans, waiting to see how she plays iconic fills.

She has nerves of steel!!!

Props, I could not do it. 🫡

This brought a tear to my eye. My god she’s good.

Emotional first show of drummer Anika Nilles with RUSH!

[Ken Rosato @KenRosatoTV]

Wondering about Geddy Lee's ability to hit all his notes? Wonder no more! #Rush2026 is as amazing as ever. Alex Lifeson is on point and the late, great Neil Peart is smiling down on opening night tonight in LA as Anika Nilles honors his legacy - the crowd loves her. #RushIsABand

Rush miraculously come back to life, opening their tour with “Xanadu”
