Neil Peart and Los 33

Neil and Wheels.

Neil Peart's latest installment of News, Weather and Sports tells the tale of his South American adventures. The Rush drummer, who travels between shows by motorcycle, has asked readers of his blog to make a donation to the Red Cross in Chile, who helped the plight of "Los 33", the Chilean miners who were trapped underneath the Atacama Desert.

It's a hell of a blog post, and well worth the price of admission to read about Neil's adventures riding from Brazil, to Argentina, to Chile. So if you're a Rush fan, or if you just like good travel writing, we suggest you check it out.

Rush are expected to go back into the studio early next year to finish work on their next opus, Clockwork Angels. You can download the first single, "Caravan" at Amazon.com.
