Geddy spoke with Charlotte's WFAE 90.7 this morning for a short interview to discuss the appearance and share his own family's personal Holocaust story. Towards the end of the interview Geddy was asked about his late mother and whether she was a fan of Rush:

Are you kidding? She could have been our agent. My mother loved our band. Not at first, of course. She thought I was losing my marbles when we were practicing in my basement when I was about 15. But as we became more successful, she was incredibly proud and she loved to brag about us. And she even - in her little discount store in Newmarket, Ontario - she started selling records just so she could sell our records. She would sit by the radio and she would beam every time a Rush song came on.

You can read the transcript and/or listen to the 7-minute interview here, and get tickets at this location.
