Geddy Lee is going to spill about his “effin’ life” this fall.
The 70-year-old Rush frontman and bassist just announced a 14-show book tour promoting his new memoir “My Effin’ Life.”
Along the way, the 2013 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee will drop into New York City’s Beacon Theatre on Monday, Nov. 13 to read passages from the book, chat with a special guest interviewer and answer questions from fans.
And yes, audience members receive a copy of “My Effin’ Life” at each and every stop on the affable Canadian rocker’s ‘My Effin’ Life In Conversation Tour.’
“I’ve never lived my life looking anywhere but forward, which is why I resisted doing this kind of thing for so long,” Lee shared in a statement.
“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.”
