More From Alex Lifeson

I've learnt new scales through playing different types of music, like indian raga scales, gipsy scales and harmonically-based jazz scales.

Paint pictures with sound. first, find your white-the deepest, roundest sound you can play on the guitar. then, find your black-which is the most extreme tonal difference from white you can play. now, just pick the note where you've got white, pick it where you've got black, and then find all those colors in between. get those colors down, and you'll be able to express almost any emotion on the guitar.?
Music Guitar Color
I always liked the steel guitar. i also love the guys that play the bottleneck. but i could never do it; i never made it do what i want. so every time i would pick up the guitar, i'd shake my hand and trill it a bit. for some strange reason my ears would say to me that sounds similar to what those guys were doing. i can't pick up the guitar now without doing it. so that's how i got into making my sound. it was nothing pretty. just trying to please myself. i heard that sound.
Guitar Hands Play
What interested me about chuck berry was the way he could step out of the rhythm part with such ease, throwing in a nice, simple riff, and then drop straight into the feel of it again. we used to play a lot more rhythm stuff. we'd do away with the differences between lead and rhythm guitar. you can't go into a shop and ask for a "lead guitar". you're a guitar player, and you play a guitar.
Nice Simple Player

There will be gay couples; it will exist. it is not very nice that people who are married - who divorce in three seconds - don’t want protection for the others. the legal system should protect everyone, not just the few people who think they are above everybody else because they are married.
Couple Nice Divorce
If you only think about yourself - how much money can i make, what can i buy, how nice is my house, what kind of fancy car do i have? - over the long term, i think, you get bored. i think your life becomes diminished. the way to live a full life is to think: what can i do for others?
