The guitarist spoke in a recent interview of the possibility of new music saying “We love playing together and we really enjoy that aspect of our relationship.”
Lifeson, who suffers from slight arthritis in his hands, also hopes that the band won’t stop touring competely as he wishes to do “special runs” of smaller tours lasting a couple of weeks.
