Certainly at this point, after being together for almost thirty-eight years (and being around a decade or two before that), Alex, Geddy, and I have reached our 'mature years.' However, we have arrived there hot and sweaty, sliding into third, as a working, touring band. That built-to-be-performed quality is clearly evident on all of the songs on Clockwork Angels, too. Like the nineteen albums that have come before, these songs are 'Made 2 B Played,' again and again for years.
