I have a lot of hobbies and I can be very remiss in reminding myself to go down to the basement to work.

I was thrilled to support the Teenage Cancer Trust while celebrating the music of The Who - a band that changed my life.

I was taking piano lessons with a very good piano instructor in Toronto, and I'm afraid due to my schedule and discipline, it kind of fell apart. One thing lead to another and I was unable to practice as much as I wanted to.

For me, there is a lot of room for improvement and there are a lot of things I would like to be better at.

But, I would be naive not to recognize the number of musicians who tell me they have been influenced by me and sight me - as well as Alex and Neil - as a musician who has been a positive influence on their playing.

Some writing and production projects will be a great way to spend my elderly rock years.

I would like to think that Ben and myself have begun a partnership that will take us into different areas of music that we can continue to write, enjoy and keep me involved with music other then what I do with RUSH.
