Bower had the very RARE opportunity to interview Neil back in late 2006. The Bower Show was on Sirius Satellite Radio and Neil was doing a book tour for his Roadshow: Landscape With Drums – A Concert Tour By Motorcycle book. Bower has spent the last hour listening and re-listening to it to recall just how amazingly nice, funny and talented a man the elusive Neil Peart was.

He truly will be missed.
