Came across this fantastic new interview with Alex -- conducted on his birthday, no less! -- in which he talks about the tour, his new favorite solo to play live, and the new songs. So much more. Terrific stuff!

Also loved his top 3 solos!

 

Title track is going to be an epic.....maybe he will bring out the double neck SG next tour (Xanadu!).

Did anyone catch this:

 

 

Interviewer: "You're not busting out the Gibson EDS-1275 double neck anymore, though, huh?"

 

Alex: [laughs] "No. I think I'm a little too old for that. It hurts my back too much. Maybe next tour I'll bring it out. We'll see."

 

 

Does this mean we will be hearing Xanadu or Hemisphere next tour?

 

What other songs could it be?

Thanks for posting. very cool

[EveryNerveAware]

Thanks for posting.

 

I remember when Rush played Tom Sawyer on Rock Band backstage at The Colbert Report. You guys weren't too good at playing your own song on a game system. Are you any better at Guitar Hero?

 

[laughs] "No, I retired after that. I'm much better at the real thing."

 

[tkdryan]

rerecord. Guess I better buy the cd single now to have an original recording

[PhilCastro]

"The title track, Clockwork Angels, is becoming quite an epic, so we'll have to see where that goes."

 

I like epic

Really good article. Not only good information, but more demonstration just what a genuinely good man Alex is.
