Rush is my favorite band, and Neil’s drumming and lyrics always looms large in my mind. Neil’s passing was a gut punch and was a profound loss for me and all fans of Rush. RIP Neil Peart.

Neil has marked an epoch in drumming history. Never tire of listening to him in interviews explain his approach to drumming. Neil was a very genuine soul. He will be missed by those of us that had seen him live and for those that will come to know of his legend into the future, they will be inspired and changed. Thanks to Neil and Rush and thank you for sharing! Cheers

I've never understood why Caress Of Steel was so maligned by critics and fans alike. It is one of my favorite Rush albums. It was an integral part of their growth and in my opinion, did most of the heavy lifting from 'what they were' to 'who they are now'. Criminally underrated, and a huge void in the true Rush fan's appreciation of the totality of Rush. Tolkien would've loved it!

Neil comes from my home town so I am biased but in my opinion he's the best. Very few other drummers possess his chops, limb independence, and technical skill but no others in my opinion have those qualities plus the ability to make the kit sound so very good. He is a master drum part composer as well. Did I mention that he was a great human being too?

Good to know that the Canadian genius behind most of the great lyrics and the musical elevating of Alex and Geddy aelso made good use of the available bongos; white noise clap trap (love me that applesauce); his own take on Simmons drums (nothing wrong with them, played them once 2) and those heavy English coins to teach his fans worldwide and the rockers and mockers still around as well , how in humble persevering through it all we can help make this world better, without first doing no harm , since the only way to make all things ''nice'' and every one equal , as trees of the same size isn't by cutting them all down...for if we did we wouldn't have greats like Alex Lifeson, , Giddy Lee ( with his museum -like baseball and bass collections and all) and the professor 's RUSH to listen to...Shema!!!.

Neil is absolutely one of the greatest of all time, or THE greatest, depending on who you talk to. I believe Dave Grohl from the Foo Fighters said that Neil Peart was your favorite drummer's favorite drummer. One of my favorite drummers is Danny Carey from the band Tool. Guess who is one of Danny's favorite drummers? Neil Peart :)

With all my love and respect to my all time hero, I must state this: Though I have been a (self-appointed) devotee and student of Neil Peart's work for over 44 years, with him being on my mind most of my day, I have always taken serious issue with his view of his stardom. This is mentioned in this video. If I could have had a conversation with him (and Geddy and Alex), I would have said "You're famous. Grow up. Get used to it. Learn to embrace it." This adversarial view of fans is insulting and ludicrous. We finance their whole lives, making them and their families rich and comfortable. They gain a powerful voice with which they can influence others, something the average person could never have. If a living, unappreciative famous person wishes, we fans could invite them to give up this fame, wealth, comfort and influence at any time. Conversely, Henry Winkler is the model star. He is humble, appreciative and caring toward fans. He takes the time to say hello and thanks every one of them. Many more people know Henry Winkler, so It's not a matter of how big of a star one is. Every famous person should learn to be like Winkler. Limelight made for a great song, but it's truly bittersweet for me.

Bottom Line being about Neil is that He was Every Teenager's hero who took up drum lessons during the '80's, as His style boarded on every kind of basic style from,,, not going to get into it. Don't know how many drummer-wanna-bees that thought They were great when they could play LIMELIGHT. Always that song. Terrific Talent

3:23 - Ooh, it's the old cruel 'musician' joke so beloved of keyboard players and guitarists: "... amongst musicians and drummers alike..." OUCH! Yep. We drummers aren't musicians [joke]. Whether you're called Buddy or Neil or Vinnie or Elli [that's me], we're just illiterate animals who like hitting things. Sometimes it's a snare; often it's a ride; usually it's the bassist; occasionally it's the 'Like' button.🤭
