Different Stages is a live album by Canadian rock band Rush, released in 1998. The bulk of the first and second discs were recorded at Chicago's New World Music Center, during the 1994 Counterparts tour and the 1997 Test for Echo tour. The third disc is taken from a performance at the Hammersmith Odeon during the A Farewell to Kings tour in 1978.

This album was compiled and released in the wake of the deaths of Neil Peart's daughter and wife in 1997 and 1998, respectively. The album was dedicated to their memories. Production of the album occurred during Peart's recovery from his loss as chronicled in his book "Ghost Rider: Travels on the Healing Road" and as a consequence he was not involved in the production of the album.

This is the only live album Rush released that contains "2112" in its entirety (All the World's a Stage omits the Discovery and Oracle sections, Rush in Rio contains only the Overture and Temples of Syrinx sections, and R30 Live in Frankfurt has the Overture, Temples of Syrinx and Grand Finale sections. Exit...Stage Left and A Show of Hands do not contain any section of "2112".)

The album is dedicated to the memory of Neil Peart's daughter Selena, who died in a car accident in 1997, and his wife Jacqueline, who died of cancer 10 months later.

"Suddenly... You were gone... from all the lives you left your mark upon. In loving memory of Jackie and Selena." This text can be read from the inside of the album. The lyrics featured are from the song "Afterimage" a song from their 1984 album Grace Under Pressure.
