Wait... you're telling me you haven't heard "AOTA"?
Wait... you're saying you had no idea each song has a music video?
You mean to tell me you didn't even know it's available on vinyl at your local record store?
...C'MON! 😱

Another clip from the livestream — Barb Keim (longtime friend, total Journey fan, but she's got room in her heart for Rush too) asked which musician I'd love to work with.
The answer is Jacob Collier.
If it ever happened, I'd have some homework to do.
Some costumes that come in a sack can be pretty generic, but this one… Spirit Halloween, I must say, great execution. You got the hair perfect.

Every track on this record got its own video, and this is just a taste of a few of them. But no matter how you watch it, it all comes back to this — the record spinning on the turntable, the way it was meant to be heard.

It's a fitting time of year for my camera to capture something eerie

If you haven't gotten your copy of AOTA from Experience Vinyl, I'd say now is definitely the time.

A little clip from the livestream! Jaime Soto asked a good one: “What type of bass were you playing in the 1980 Japan live video?” I give you the answer and then some here. If you missed the livestream, don’t worry—there will be more. 😉

For the special edition Purple Swirl Vinyl, I signed 250 photos that come included with each purchase. BUT one of them isn’t quite like the others…
Who out there has the photo with my signature in the lower left-hand corner?

The album concludes with "No One Wins A War". This one comes from the same early 2000s sessions as a few other tracks on this album, written alongside Steve Roseman and George Tickner. It felt like the right way to close out the album. Hope you enjoyed the visuals!
This album gave me the opportunity to record some of my favorite cover songs, and "Lowrider" was one of them. It was a spur-of-the-moment idea that ended up becoming the quickest track we recorded for the whole album.

I was listening to Horace Silver's "Señor Blue" on KCSM one day and realized how similar the rhythm and bass line were to what we'd just recorded. So I added "Señor Blue" on as a tailpiece to close out "Incident In Neshabur".
