   Here's more on Geddy & his Jewish roots: "I was born in Willowdale,   
   Ontario. I was a quiet nebbishe kid. My parents were both Holocaust   
   survivors and emigrated here after the war. They basically arrived   
   with 10 bucks in their pocket...worked their way up to lower-middle   
   kind of income & raised me in the suburbs. When we first moved in we   
   were one of the first Jewish families to live in our neighborhood and   
   we were constantly living in terror with being beat up because of that   
   fact. It was an exciting time (sarcastic laughter). When I was 12, my   
   father passed away and I had to go to synagogue in the morning &   
   evening every day. I was not really allowed to listen to music. So   
   that whole year was devoid of what all the other kids were just   
   starting to get turned onto." - RUSH: BEYOND THE LIGHTED STAGE, 2010
