Reader Doug alerted me to this recent post on Eddie Trunk's blog:

4/5/07: Had the honor to once again spend the day with Alex Lifeson and Geddy Lee of Rush at the Atlantic Records office in NYC. I shot a 45 minute TV interview with the guys (shot in HD) for future use. VH1 Classic has been going through some changes and the studio is being redone so they were not able to shoot anything new with the guys this time around. However the band and label hired me directly to film an interview that they own and will use to air in several places and ways to promote the new CD. Not sure yet where it will show up, but I'll let you know when they tell me. I'll also have the audio from the interview to play on upcoming radio shows soon. As usual they were both super cool people and we spent lot's of time talking about the new CD (which sounds really good) as well as the upcoming tour, set list and some questions on their history. Really great to see them both again and I sincerely thank the guys for requesting me for this interview. Again, this was not for VH1 Classic, so I will let you know when I know where it will be shown. ...

Eddie had mentioned on his radio show last Friday that he would be interviewing Geddy and Alex this week; I guess this was it. It'll be interesting to see how and when the footage will be used. Eddie Trunk has interviewed Geddy and Alex many times before. His VH1 Classic interview with them from late 2005 can be viewed here. He also interviewed Neil Peart for the first time last fall; you can watch that interview here.
