Congratulations, Lara! I don't know which I've valued more from your 'Stack: seeing my favorite band's music through others' eyes, or discovering some amazing covers. Thank you very much for both, and so much more.

Have you considered letting this Substack stand as it is, and starting another? In doing that, you wouldn't be betraying either the "Rush" or the daily aspect of it. And I'm confident many would subscribe on the basis of your fine work here.

Thank you for the kind words, and for following along this year!!! I am indeed working on a new Substack project -- not related to music this time -- and I'll make a post here when I'm ready to launch.

I think you have a point about letting this blog stand as is. I might end up doing that... though gosh, it's weird not writing new posts every night anymore.

I’m with Jackie here. I’m guessing you probably have non-Rush related stuff to write about and that could be part of the new venture. Of course we will stay subscribed here for any Rush addendums you share in the future. It sounds like you’re the sort of person who works better with a deadline so suggesting that you write when the iron is hot, probably isn’t the best idea for you. But I’m just guessing.

You are too kind, and thank you for being so supportive this year. It's been a true delight seeing your name pop up in the comments over the past several months, and I'm not sure I would have kept going without your encouragement!

When I'm ready to set sail on the next Substack adventure, I'll be sure to let you know, for sure :)

Thank you for reminding me often to engage with their catalogue besides the greatest hits anthologies I own.

I'm sorry to hear about your loss. He sounds like he was a dear person, and clearly he had great taste in tunes.
