New Geddy Lee interview in Canada's National Post

Wed, Apr 16, 2008@8:31AM | comments removed/disabled

Adam McDowell of Canada's National Post recently interviewed Geddy Lee for an article titled Rush bring brainier brand of rock back on the road. There's also a side article of items that didn't make it into the main interview called From the Cutting Room Floor: Geddy Lee pines for Halifax. There's not anything too exciting in the main article but in the side article when talking about the tour Geddy says:

We wanted to expand the tour to hit cities that we haven’t hit for a long time. I’m looking forward to playing a lot of Canadian cities that we haven’t played in a while. We haven’t played Winnipeg in a while, or Regina. We’re still hoping to expand the Canadian dates to include something on the East Coast. We’ve had a hell of a time getting arena dates in those cities, especially Halifax.

So Geddy confirms that the band is still trying to secure a date in Atlantic Canada but having trouble with scheduling - which corroborates what I've been hearing from other sources. There is still hope for Halifax yet! Thanks to TMMB for the heads up.
