September is Rush Month at Planet Rock

Sat, Aug 25, 2007@5:10PM | comments removed/disabled

UPDATE - 8/28@4:35PM: Here are some more details courtesy reader Distant Early Warning. The interviews were done by Planet Rock DJ, Mark Jeeves, who is a big Rush fan. The first interview is this Sunday, September 2nd at 7PM (UK time) and is with Neil. Apparently, he talks about Keith Moon and why he couldn't be like Keith, why the UK is important to him and he also chats about his lyrics. The other three interviews will be broadcast on the following three Sundays.

According to DJ Nicky Horne, UK digital radio station Planet Rock has declared September as Rush Month. They've been featuring a different artist each month; currently it's Rolling Stones month and they've also paid tribute to Genesis and Pink Floyd as well. Aside from playing more Rush and having competitions for tickets (Rush will be playing 7 dates in the UK in the first half of October), they will be broadcasting four exclusive interviews that were recorded in San Francisco earlier this year. Each of the first three will be with one member of the band, talking about a particular period in their history and then the fourth will be with all three. Thanks to reader Distant Early Warning for the heads up.
