Reviews

""An inviting tour of our national pastime, led by a rocker with an infectious love of the game."" — Kirkus Reviews

""Epic."" -- Rolling Stone ""A treasure trove for any fan of the four-stringed (and occasionally more) instrument."" -- Billboard ""As someone who has spent his life telling made-up stories that are obliged to sound somewhat plausible, I am deeply envious of Geddy Lee. And it's not only the improbable, absurd, wondrous and at times heartbreaking true story that life has gifted him that I envy, but also the warmth, care, artfulness, hard-earned wisdom and--always--the gently skewed humor with which he tells it. He's one of my musical heroes, for reasons that are there on record, but with this book everyone can see why for so long he has also been one of my heroes as a man."" -- Michael Chabon ""There was never a band like Rush. Geddy Lee doesn't want to forget it. It took a series of losses for the high-voiced rock star to confront his personal history. It all came out in his new memoir."" -- The Washington Post
