We chat with Dave Bidini of the Rheostatics about their upcoming double vinyl release, The Great Lakes Suite, out later this week! This new recording features 18 tracks of primarily improvised music and spoken word, performed by longtime members Dave Bidini, Dave Clark, Don Kerr, and Tim Vesely, with newer additions Kevin Hearn and Hugh Marsh, alongside legendary guitarist Alex Lifeson of Rush. What a treat to chat with Bidini about baseball, the founding of his community newspaper, The West End Phoenix, and so much more. Said Alex Lifeson to Dave Bidini, "you have to embrace danger" and this new recording is a great reminder that your greatest adventure could be right around the corner, and to keep going...A very inspiring chat, hope you enjoy it!
