Yeah, the whole story about him just taking off after their deaths is really 
sad. Apparently, Geddy and Alex heard little from him the whole time and were 
really concerned about the band ever getting back together.

I heard some really wild stories about them from their crew about when they 
toured as an opening act for Kiss. The guys in Kiss thought there was something 
wrong with them because they didn’t party or have all the groupies. They used 
to barge into the room where Kiss would be having all their post-concert 
debauchery and harsh everyone’s buzz. I don’t recall if it was Paul or Ace that 
Alex used to purposely try and bust up his groupie hookups on occasion just to 
mess with him. At least that’s what I was told.
