Alex Lifeson & Geddy Lee Discuss Rush Future

Rush members Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson appeared on the latest episode of Sound Opinions. The bassist and guitarist talked with the long running Chicago Public Radio program’s hosts Jim DeRogatis and Greg Kot about a variety of topics, perhaps most importantly touching on the future of their iconic band.

As noted by the Rush Is A Band website, Lee and Lifeson told the hosts the band doesn’t have anything specifically planned right now, but didn’t rule out more Rush in the future after the current break they’re on ends. Lifeson hinted at writing new music, while Lee reiterated that the physical demand live touring places on drummer Neil Peart remains a challenge for the trio.

Here’s a transcription of part of chat via Rush Is A Band:

The case against Hillary Clinton: This is the disaster Democrats must avoid

You like what Bernie’s calling for, but you just don’t think he’s likely to win the general election, perhaps because “this country would never elect a socialist.” And even if he did win, you don’t think he’d be able to accomplish his goals, given how entrenched the GOP opposition is. Maybe you even think it’s already settled—that Hillary’s got the nomination locked up.

Here’s why going with that assumption—and backing Hillary in general—would be, in the words of Donald Trump, a disaster.

New York City’s nuclear power plant leaking ‘uncontrollable radioactive flow’ into Hudson River

Looks like the Indian Point leak is worse than they first told us. I’m not shocked, are you?
If you trust your government to protect you, you will find yourself fucked sooner or later.
#IndianPoint #radiation #leak #groundwater #contamination #WestchesterNY #news #cuomo #NewYork #HudsonRiver

New York governor Andrew Cuomo recently called for an investigation after Indian Point, a nuclear power plant on the Hudson River, reported a leak of radioactive material flowing into the groundwater. Now, new samples taken from the local groundwater show that contamination levels are 80% higher than previous samples, prompting experts to claim this leak is spreading in “a disaster waiting to happen” and calling for the plant to be shut down completely. The Indian Point nuclear power plant is located just 25 miles north of New York City, and it’s a crucial source of of power for over 23 million people living in the greater NYC metropolitan region. http://inhabitat.com/new-york-citys-nuclear-power-plant-leaking-uncontrollable-radioactive-flow-into-hudson-river/ Reports show that radioactive elements from New York’s Indian Point nuclear power plant are most likely seeping right into the Hudson River.

Massacre in India: A Man Stabbed 14 Members of His Family to Death Before Hanging Himself | VICE…

14 dead with a knife.
For all the gun control folks out there, you should take pause in knowing that mass murder with a knife may take a bit more motivation and energy, but it certainly doesn’t require a gun to perform these acts of desperation and rage. #news https://news.vice.com/article/massacre-in-india-a-man-stabbed-14-members-of-his-family-to-death-before-hanging-himself Police say a 35-year-old man killed his parents and several of his sisters and their children at the family’s home on the outskirts of Mumbai.
