I still like listening to the radio, from time to time. We have Canadian content here, so RUSH is played, a lot. (So is Bryan Adams,The Guess Who, Drake …oh and The Tragically Hip)
I had no idea Neil died. Brain Cancer!! The singer from The Tragically Hip singer, Gordon Downie, died from brain cancer a couple of years ago.
Thank you for the tribute!

Always thought of them as something like “poor man’s prog band”, but I liked more than just one or two from them. I am a true fan of Geddy Lee’s voice whith its touch of David Surkamp [Pavlov’s Dog], and I really enjoy the way they master their instruments, the relaxed power they sent out especially n this live. Thank you for the comment!

Like Bryan Adams, maybe bigger outside the country?

Thank you Dale, I always found this song utterly moving, I felt it was an appropriate farewell to the man…
