    nope....the same company that runs MSG bought the building, remodeled it, and it has become the leading arena-size venue in L.A. for the most part.

    GRAPES UNDER PRESSURE: RUSH'S GEDDY LEE AND ALEX LIFESON TALK WINE

    Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson recall in vivid detail the night of November 12, 1974, when a bottle of wine changed their lives. While Rush were on tour opening shows for Rory Gallagher, promoter Randy McElrath invited the up-and-coming band out to dinner at the Pfister Hotel in Milwaukee. During the meal, McElrath ordered bottles of Château Margaux and Château Latour Bordeaux and shared them with Lee and Lifeson. Instantly, he turned them into wine connoisseurs.

    “It was the first time we had wine of that caliber,” Lee recalls. “We both were stunned by the wine’s texture, complexity, and flavors.”

    “I was amazed how the wine developed in the glass over the course of the meal,” Lifeson adds. “There were so many layers and nuances. After I got home from the tour I bought whatever good wines I could afford.”

    Lee became a serious collector about 10 years after Lifeson did, and their shared passion for wine has helped the pair maintain a strong, lasting friendship, one that goes back to their childhoods. Though they’ve enjoyed many experiences during their time in one of the world’s most successful bands, the ones they treasure most involve memorable bottles of wine savored during their travel adventures and on each other’s birthday.
