[Rush Drummer Peart Chronicles Life On The 'Road']

UPDATE - 9/15@3:41PM: Yet another update. Apparently the book is already available directly from the publisher (Rounder Books) here. However, the price given is about 4 bucks more than at Amazon and other online stores - and that doesn't include shipping. Also, Amazon doesn't give a specific release date (the 25th was just what was listed in the "Product Details" next to the publisher) - so this makes me think that they might have it sooner than September 25th too. I've already pre-ordered mine from Amazon; I can wait another week or so I guess. But if you're anxious, go on and order it. And if you do, let us know what you think!

UPDATE/CORRECTION - 9/15@3:21PM: Actually, this new article doesn't seem to be the entire interview. The one bit from the first article that they left out of this one was the part where Neil discussed his lyrical inspiration for the new album as being garnered from religious themes. This makes me think that they might still be keeping portions of the complete interview for later articles.

Earlier this week, Billboard.com released snippets of an interview they conducted with Neil Peart. The entire interview is now online. The interview is mostly about Neil's traveling and his soon-to-be-released 4th book Roadshow; and how it all relates to Rush. No real "new" information - but a lot of interesting insight and commentary from Neil as usual. Neil's book will be released on September 25th and you can preorder it here. Selected excertps from the book can also be read on Neil Peart's website here.
