Geddy,

Here are some questions for you:

Where is Lakeside Park?

Can you name two non-Rush records that Geddy has appeared on?

And finally, what does YYZ refer to?

Lakeside Park is in St. Cantarines, Canada.

Geddy has sung on Bob and Doug Mckenzie's Great White North album and his own solo album My Favourite Headache

and YYZ is the airport code for Toronto Pearson Internation Airport.

You do Rock!! I was looking for Toronto for Lakeside Park, but St.Catherines is close enough.

Geddy also sang on Amy Mann's album, the track was Hush Hush, I believe.

Do you listen to any other Canadian bands - Tragically Hip??

Thank you sir,
I haven't heard anything by Tragically Hip...although Neil Peart likes them alot. The only other Canadian band I like, and even then just a few songs, is Triumph.

Triumph was the first concert I ever went to. It was the Allied Forces tour in 1980, I paid $8 for lower gold seats. What happed to those days.

The Hip are unique and very different from Rush. Check out their albums Up To Here, Fully Completely or Road Apples first, that will give you a good taste.

My wife approved the loan for Neil Perts house a few years back. Very cool!

The Rush concert I went to waaaay back in high school was the closest I've ever been to the stage (10th row). The bass drums were so freaking loud that my chest vibrated everytime he stomped it.
