We are proud of the way the Rush community has come together during this painful chapter in our lives.

On Friday January 10th, 2020 the world learned that Neil Peart, the greatest drummer of all time, had died from brain cancer. This has been the darkest hour for the Rush community. We wanted to use our platform to offer a place of comfort during this time, so we invited Rush fans from around the world to call in and share their thoughts on Neil.  There are no words to express how we feel. If there were, the man best suited to find them is no longer with us. So we will let the voices in this episode speak for themselves. We love you all. And we all love you, Neil. We hope you know that wherever you are. 

There isn't much to say. Or at least, we don't have the words, but we are going to try tomorrow. We will record an episode tomorrow and we want your help.  Please give us a call and leave a voicemail telling us what you're feeling. We are going to play every single voicemail and mourn together.  Clock's ticking. Don't wait. Call now.
