Who is the longest running rock band with no member changes that still performs?
RE: Rush. 1975 and no member changes. Toured in 2011 and have an album coming out in 2012. It is true that Rush has had no lineup changes since 1975, but their original album featured John Rutsey on drums, who was replaced by Neil Peart due to Rutsey's health problems. So if the question is what is the longest currently running tenure of the same lineup, this may be true. If the question of the longest currently active band with the original members and no changes, then it is not Rush, and perhaps U2.
How old is the band rush?
The band's history goes back to 1968, but there were a number of personnel changes before it finally became what we know as today's incarnation of Rush. That incarnation goes back to about 1973. After playing at numerous bars and clubs, Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson and John Rutsey released an album on their own label, Moon Records, in 1974. It was sent to me (I was the music director at WMMS-FM in Cleveland), and in April-May 1974, Rush began to receive airplay on American radio. By that time, John Rutsey had to leave due to health issues, and Neil Peart joined the trio. Thus, Rush as the band we know today is more than forty years old.
