Hello you,

This collection was recorded over a span of 20 years, primarily during 3 tours.  Our desire was to record many shows hoping to capture some "magic" performances as naturally as possible.  But, as Murphy's Law would dictate, with well over 60 shows to choose from, we found ourselves being drawn to a mere handful.  We have tried not to "mess" with these tapes very much and to present something that we think represents a fairly definitive retrospective of our live work and changing sound over that period of time.

Of course, no band is an island, and so we thank our various crew members, management staff and drivers throughout the years who have been the unfailing support system that has kept us rolling, stage to stage, with great dedication and professionalism, and good humour.

But most significantly, we would like to thank our many fans around the world for their long-standing support which, to our continuing amazement, has enabled us to hang around for so damn long - despite the inherent weirdness of our music!

best wishes to all

Geddy

"suddenly...you were gone...from all the lives you left your mark upon"

In loving memory of Jackie and Selena
