One of at least several other accounts that he said he left though to be fair he seems to been pretty quiet lately. Not heard from a credible source that he went back but I suppose it's possible.

Haven't gotten that far yet but he covered that part in his live readings. Florida was the first thing that came to mind too.

Rush (Geddy Lee) -- 93.3's Pierre Robert Interview CD from December 18, 2000. This CD was only given out to people who were invited to the interview (I wish I was) and/or in the fan club for that radio station.Basically this is a recording of the live interview promoting My Favorite Headache in front of a selected studio audience and at the end some fans (including the ubiquitous B-Man) get to ask Geddy some questions. For those of you into interviews. This is one of the better ones. -- $40.

That's awesome. Thought about waiting myself in Philly but didn't want to take the chance of missing the last train out.

Did he leave at one point? Is it incorrect to say that he has not been credited on recent reissues?

Thanks for posting this. It's very interesting. Though the mention they cataloged the vault there is no specific mention of any live material in this conversation. There's evidence that there is a vault but no evidence of what's in there aside from work in progress demos which kind of dispel the myth that there are no demos.

They are putting themselves out there. Alex was just shredding with Tool, working on Envy Of None and who knows what else and Geddy is on his book tour and released to new songs.. They're moving forward not back.

Had first row in the balcony at my show. Clear view and a very relaxing evening.

Finished six chapters. Have to force myself to slow down. (Trying to balance it by reading Romano's Moving Pictures which obviously isn't nearly as good in comparison) More than a quarter of the way through and they just got to the first album. Seems like a lot is going to be left out. (Still want a copy of the 1200 page manuscript.) Love the pictures, didn't realize some of them were color but I finally found them.

Agreed except for the ticket part. I'd need to know A LOT more than what I know now. And since THEY don't know, it's going to be a while even if the clock is ticking.

His honesty is pretty stark and yet... Maybe reading tea leaves is a lot art.

Kind of old news but I didn't see it here so.. Seems to be going as expected so far. A bit surprised that he says there wasn't much discussion about details before the decision was made so hopefully that will work out. Seems to project the right kind of attitude about it at least.

$5 a card was bit on the high side for me but I thought it was a cool idea and it was well designed so I went for it. I really wanted an article of clothing (Take my money!) but the art was lacking.

There was NO thought that 30 some years later there might be a demand to have this stuff. The music video format for most of that was no more than 75 minutes to 90 for decent quality video. It was edited for production and the rest was forgotten about maybe saved but not well preserved. This stuff was not considered like an Oscar worthy film, it was just music. Who knew? Anything that survived (like the Laura Secord footage (which was never filmed for release at that time) is just random luck.

This reminds me of the time I was immortalized in the 6/2/90 Knickerbocker Albany video a few times when the guy who was filming randomly focused in on part our section at a few points including during War Paint. That really freaked me out the first time I watched that.

It was. You could feel the love in the room.

I love Neil's style of writing. It's certainly a different style but I'm enjoying Geddy's style too. Interesting to compare the two.

I'd love to see the 1200 page manuscript but there's a much chance of that happened as there is of hearing the 30 plus minute version of The Main Monkey Business!

I thought the apparel designs sucked but I got the baseball cards to go with the Vapor Trails baseballs I guess. Thought the litho was very well done and now I need to find a frame and somewhere to hang it.

Have you seen a list of the classic R&B/Funk/Rock music played before the show?

Well, he insisted consistently (without evidence) in the years prior to that quote (maybe it's still available on the alt.music.rush internet archive if there is one.) that all of the footage not used in the those three videos was just sitting untouched in the vault. Then it shows up in that article years later about R30. Since then there has not been ANY supporting evidence for this. Usually in cases like these you can find more than one reference. (Such as for when Different Stages was released there was supposed to be a video release but they ran into tech-syncing problems and it was later scrapped Some of this footage was eventually released on the R40 box in 2014.)

Also, there has been NO supporting evidence since that time. NONE

Guess it's trivia now but Steve Shutt and the Canadians were thanked in the liner notes for Moving Pictures. Always thought that was really cool.

Well you never know, but...
