Manager Ray Danniels this week said it was "somewhere between possible and probable" that they wouldn't tour again. Lifeson tells Jam: "We're nuts. We rehearse for six weeks before the rehearsals - I'm serious.

"I've been rehearsing for three weeks now. I spend four hours, three times a week, and then the rest of the time I play for an hour to two hours. And that's just to get ready for rehearsals."
