Geddy Lee says Neil Peart's body wasn't even cold before drummers started reaching out to him to see if he would be interested in their services.
This came up during his recent appearance on Strombo's Lit, Apple's book club curated by Canadian media personality George "Strombo" Stroumboulopoulos.
Strombo told Geddy how musicians reached out to him, knowing that he's good friends with Rush.
Peart died four years ago this Sunday, January 7th, 2020, from brain cancer. He was 67.
A Peart tribute concert was held Saturday night at the Keswick Theatre in the Philadelphia suburb of Glenside, Pennsylvania.
Performers included Dream Theater drummer Mike Portnoy and Anthrax bassist Frank Bello who all played with the Rush tribute bandm YYNOT.
Proceeds from the show will go to New York's Cedars Sinai Hospital in memory of Peart.
