The guitarist and occasional back up vocalist in
canadian prog rock band
Rush. His real name is Aleksandar Živojinović and is the son of Serbian immigrants. He is a highly talented guitarist, one of the best ever, but since no music media outlet ever cares about
Rush, is often unappreciated. Plays a wide variety of guitars from Gibsons to PRSs. Can play better than just about anyone. He's nicknamed Lerxst from a mispronunciation of his name.
Alex Lifeson, Neil Peart, and Geddy Lee are the god-kings of progressive rock. Just listen to 2112 or Xanadu or La
Villa Strangiato
In 2003, Alex Lifeson
got into a brawl with police in Naples and had to be tased multiple
times.
