ByTor2112 Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 Both live in Toronto yes, pretty sure in the Forest Hill and Rosedale areas (north of downtown and very upscale). Neil sold his home(s) in Quebec and Toronto after recovering from his tragedies and meeting his new wife, who lives in California. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lerxstforever Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 Neil lives in Santa Monica. While visting my aunt and uncle in Oceanside, we drove up there one day and visted the pier Neil talks about in Traveling Music. Its pretty neat, and one of the guys riding their bikes looked kinda like Neil, but I wasn't positive, he was gone in about two seconds down the bike path.

Jack Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 My Girlfriend recently visited her friend in Toronto and whilst there explained to her friend I was a Rush fan (as I'd asked her to try and get and few snaps of the Moving Pictures cover building - City Hall?). A few weeks ago got a text from her canadian friend to say she'd seen Geddy Lee cycling in Toronto!, so i'm thinking he probably lives there. Wish there was a cycling smilie!?.

yyzyy Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 I know that Alex used to live in Stouffville...My dad's cousin, who is a cameraman, met someone during a film shoot that knew Alex Lifeson...He then gave us the directions to his house...so one night, we drove up there and just gazed upon his 3-door garage home equiped with basketball net and Jaguar! It was really neat to know that Lerxst himself was behind those doors... Also, the reason why my dad got into Rush was for Alex Lifeson's cousin. He lived on my dad's street...so one day, after a shopping spree of Rush stuff at a music convention, we went back to my dad's old neighbourhood and he showed me Lerxst's cousins house...Weren't we lucky enough to find the father of the cousin throwing away the garbage!!!!! ...Anyway, we got-a-talking, and we now learned that Alex's father, Ned, had passed away recently and that he had sold his house and moved downtown somewhere off of Yonge St. This was about a year ago, and that is the latest news I've heard about the guys homes...but what a really good story to tell my grandkids!! ..If I had any..

Syrinx Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 Back in the day Geddy had a really cool house in the west end of Toronto, overlooking the Humber river. It was on the side of a very steep hill / cliff, and featured multiple panoramic levels, each one with a balcony or big picture windows. I used to ride down ther on my bike to see if I could see him. Never did - he was probably always on tour back then (late 70's). Every time I go by that house I think of Geddy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
