Is that Derren Reddick or what ever he's called? I wouldn't grant him much credibility.
I wouldn't be so hasty to dismiss him - as Zoony says Darren is a huge fan, and has met the band both professionally via PR duties but also as a paying fan through meet and greets.
He always tries to get a Rush track on his playlist each day - lol, he's the reason Karen has turned a corner and rekindled her enjoyment of Rush.
Of course he could be working with duff info, but imho he's a professional when it comes to his day job, and I doubt he would knowingly spread unfounded gossip. I didn't catch the broadcast but Karen did, and Darren did caveat his comments, but it was enough for Karen to drop her work and text me, and she's far less impressionable than I am.
Let's wait and see...........
