A few weeks back I let you know that Alex Lifeson would be making a guest appearance on the upcoming Tiles release Fly Paper. Tiles webmaster Michael O just let me know that the album will be released in early 2008 via InsideOut Music and that Alex Lifeson's additions to the song he plays on sound great. If you are unfamiliar with Tiles, they are a Detroit-based progressive rock band who are - not surprisingly - huge Rush fans. Former Rush producer Terry Brown produced their last record and is also producing Fly Paper. The band posted some pics up on their site yesterday of Terry Brown's 60th birthday party from back in June. In attendance were several folks from the Toronto music scence including our favorite drummer Neil Peart. You can check out all the pics at this link.
