Happy Birthday, Alex Lifeson! From epic riffs in "Tom Sawyer" to mind-blowing solos in "Limelight," you've rocked our worlds and air-guitared your way into legendary status. Your guitar wizardry has inspired generations—though we're still trying (and failing) to nail that intro from "Spirit of Radio."Recently, seeing you jam with fellow legends reminded us all why you're the ultimate maestro of strings. May your birthday be filled with laughter, joy, and fewer jokes about how many pedals it takes to achieve your signature sound. Keep rocking strong; after all these years, you're still closer to the heart!
