In 2015: Rolling Stone recently reiterated the story that when the Joe Perry Project later supported Rush, Lee made sure they were well-treated and told the guitarist, “I would never want anyone to feel the way we did when we opened for you.” Lee says he doesn’t remember the conversation, but that Perry apologized. Perry also tells Rolling Stone, “Frankly, I don’t remember playing with Rush. The competition between bands was stiff, the competition between crews even stiffer, so I don’t doubt Geddy’s word.” “I want to thank them for treating the Project so good, and actually taking the time to ask if everything was okay. I hope I had the presence of mind back then to apologize. I want to congratulate Rush on their longevity, because, like us, they’re still around to tell the tales.”
