Anderson (Neil Peart’s writning partner on Clockwork Angels) Being the music editor of the Boston Phoenix in the 70’s, listening to bands, and talking to musicians Having an intimate dinner with Freddie Mercury and Queen The value of “greatest of all times” lists, and where Rush falls on his list How a trash pulp-paperback led to a career in comicbook writing for some of the biggest names in the business How Marvel and DC have abandoned entertainment How to build a comic novel with dynamic narratives, just like Neil didMike’s fandom of Rush…it don’t go so deep. But his favorite cuts are deep tracks, and if he had more time, he’d know more Rush. One thing is for sure, when we got done wit ‘im, he was itchin’ fer more…The wheel gives us Witch Hunt off off 1981’s Moving Pictures. We’ve spent a lot of time with this track on this show, and we were happy to have a great, powerful track to play for someone just getting to know Rush better.
