Alex is also one of my favorite players and primary influences. Rush and Yes were the bands that introduced me to odd time signatures. I bought my ES-330 in the mid '70's because I was such a fan...I didn't know that it wasn't a 335 (and am now quite happy that it isn't). It has taken a long time for him to achieve the accolades that he is due. I first saw him on the Farewell to Kings tour...what an excellent show that was! Happy Birthday, Alex...may you enjoy many, many more!

I saw Rush about 10 years ago and am so glad I did. They were just incredible. Wish I had seen them years before.

As a drummer, Neil was one of my major influences. His drumming just blew my mind. And I learned so much from listening to those albums.

In my opinion, he is the best drummer, ever.

And Alex and Geddy are just incredible also.

Happy Birthday Alex. Your music will live with me forever.

I have seen them maybe 10/12 times at least.  First show was just after Pert joined....  (this was before 2112)..

I caught them for the R40 tour..  and that, as they say  was "all she wrote" 

These guys are without doubt  my favorite rock band ever..

Live.. They were mind blowing good, always...
