"Neil is fine". Geddy was honoring Neil by respecting his wishes and answered that question without hesitation and with a complete poker face knowing he 40 year friend and bandmate was dying of cancer. Much respect to Geddy as if I didn't have a truck load for him already.

I absolutely love Geddy Lee. He is such a cool interviewee. He's so polite and down to earth. Just an amazing person with a genuis musical talent. RIP Neil.đ˘đ

"And Neil's doing great?"
Anyone else get chills hearing that? At the time of this interview I never would have guessed what he was going through. Seems like with hindsight, you can see, by Geddy's response, Neil's health was riding on his mind as well as Alex's and their families and friends closest to them. Same can be said when Yes was inducted into the RRHoF by Geddy and Alex, but no Neil. At the time, I just thought it was Neil's somewhat introverted personality (which I don't hold against him). It never dawned on me he was battling cancer.
"I can't pretend a stranger is a long awaited friend" never rang so true. RIP Neil.

I met Neil and Geddy in Daytona Florida back in 2015. I never bothered them in acknowledging that I knew who they were. It was fun for the few days that I could just be around them at the hotel. I had a temp job cleaning there with a bunch of catty witches LOL but I even had time to talk about bikes, as I ride too. Neil talked about bikes a tiny bit and Geddy sat down near the flower garden and chatted a bit. I was delighted and it was fun to just be normal with him. This put them at ease. Rest Easy Neil Top drummer ever and Hey Geddy, if you see this, I am the tall brunette Joyce. It was a pleasure to meet you both. I left and reside in Nashville for the time. God Bless and heal your hearts to RUSH, my very first real concert, "Moving Pictures" Alpine Valley late 8's maybe 1981. I would have to find me ticket stub and I am sure that I still have it. Geddy, I was so flattered that you would even speak to me and I never told a soul till now.

Such a smart, levelheaded and humble guy. All 3 of them.. thatâs why they stayed together so long as well as knew when to quit while on top

The fact he was asked about Neil, and thinking not only how painful that was for Ged to be asked, but that he had to play it straight, and respond as if all was indeed well, when in fact, it sadly wasnâtâŚI just canât imagine how agonizing that was to have to keep all the emotions in check each time the questions would come up about Neil, especially as Ged, Alex and the rest of the inner circle were keeping his illness a secret from everyone per Neilâs explicit request. As Ged stated during his and Alexâs interview with Strombo, âOn one hand youâre being dishonest, but on the other hand youâre keeping a promise to a dear friend, so fuck the dishonesty part.â (Canât recall his exact wording on it, so thatâs paraphrased.)
Rest easy, NeilâŚwe love and miss you dearly. Thank you so very much for everything. đđťâĽď¸

Geddy Lee is the reason I stopped playing bass and focused my extraordinary talent on the triangle.

RIP Neil. At the end of this interview Geddy was asked how Alex was doing and a genuine smile and even-paced reply that Alex is doing great etc., came out of him. But when asked how Neil was doing, Geddy replied very fast and in a dry, close lipped, curt manner, " He's doing good...everythings good. "..with a serious tone instantly entering his voice as he said the words. His eyes went down, not able to look the dj in the eye as he lied about Neil's state of being. I can see the discomfort in him to lie to someone's face and to a million listeners on live NY radio. Ugh. Neil, as we now know had been at that point, already in a wheelchair for months unable to even speak. Hmmm. Lee was just keeping Neil's condition quiet there. Respect to him for keeping Neil's privacy secure there. God that must have been hard to do...for a year or more as Peart's condition spiraled to points of no recovery. And this interviewer speaking expectantly that Rush could do a one show a month stint of concerts for a year on Broadway and only NOW do I see the pain, the reserved reply from Geddy murmering with feigned sounds suggesting he'd mention it to the band or management like, " OK well...we'll see, we'll see....maybe yeah." when in reality he already knew Rush was finished and Neil was leaving this life soon. Ugh. Now as I watch his face, his hushed response there, I see so much more how his insides were being ripped apart knowing the reality of things and that he was losing his friend...a brother.

Geddy always wears his "Order of Canda" pin on his left lapel (Martin Short always does as well). It not only shows Geddy's pride in being Canadian, but also confirms that he and his music are a National Treasure. Keep wearing it Geddy.

So glad it's not Eddie Trunk doing the interview. Geddy actually being able to answer questions is pleasant to see without the 10 minute ramble from Trunk.

My absolute favorite bass player. He has an incredible talent for not only music, but communicating. Such a genuine and humble man.

The fact that Chris Squire made Geddy's top 5 list is a terrific salute!

Geddy is so humble and easy to listen to. Great interview.

Thank you Mr. Weinrib, for all the music in this 40 years!
Please, extend my thanks to your friends Alex Ĺ˝ivojinoviÄ Lifeson and Neil Peart.
To my eternal happiness, I was able to assist them at the MaracanĂŁ Stadium in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
One of the most important musical experiences of my life.
Thanks!

Geddy Lee. A true gentleman.

Geddy. Class with a six foot Capital "C". What a gent and a real Canadian ICON not a poser. RIP. Neil. Bless.

A great interview with Geddy. In part because the interviewer allowed him to talk. Unlike a certain trunk individual.

He is so humble and soft spoken. I had back stage passes for the presto tour. Alex was high strung AF, Neil was introverted as heck, and it was obvious to me that Geddy was the pr guy. So friendly and warm.

Geddy Lee just blows my mind every time I hear his interviews. He is so thoughtful and articulate, and yet humble and so true to himself. Amazing person, I hope to see him perform again some day. PLEASE!!!
