Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson, and Anika Nilles Talk About Reinventing Rush
1 min read
Rolling Stone recently posted a great interview with Rush conducted after the first run of shows featuring new drummer Anika Nilles.
It was great to hear the three of them talk about how they made the cosmic connection, how Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson learned what Neil Peart had composed, and how the trio has redefined Rush’s sound.
I have been running this blog since 2009 when it was known as The Great Southern Brainfart. These days, Southeast of Heaven is it’s name but I’m still the same angry, cranky, bitter fuck I’ve always been only a bit more now. My Swedish friend Charlie from the band Hellsingin Underground said once, “Don is known for being one of the meanest bastards in American rock journalism.” It’s nice to be loved.
Oh, and I also once took a shit in Anthrax’s backstage press room toilet and didn’t flush.
