Did I miss it? How is there no thread on this?
Incredible musician and technician, had some really hard times in his life.
RIP to the youngest inductee to the Drummers Hall of Fame

I tell it like it is, if you want smoke blown up your ass or something sugar coated. I suggest you get a Hooker and a powdered donut.

Rush is one of my favorites. Neil was an unbelievable drummer. RIP indeed.

Took me a very long time to get around to appreciating their music. This I regret. RIP.
Please record my time/reps if I pass out

Rush is my favorite Prog rock group of all time. I saw this yesterday. They sang of important conceptual things. Very very good.

He's in the discussion of greatest rock drummers ever, AND he wrote a significant amount of RUSH music. So sorry he's gone.

Had not listened to them in years but in light of Neil's passing been spotifying RUSH for my workouts. Actually pretty good workout music and hearing through headphones is another experience altogether.
Don't put that on me Ricky Bobby, don't you ever put that on me.

He was every drummers favorite drummer.

I have read interviews with Alex Vah Halen and Roger Taylor. They have both said "Neil was from another planet" concerning percussion. I fell out of favor a bit with Rush with "Clock Work Angels" I thought they moved too far away from "Moving Pictures" and "Counter Parts". I was introduce to Rush with the 2112 album in the late 70's as a child. My aunt who is a very accomplished pianist and flute player loved the band. She was very into Genesis and Rush. I saw Rush twice, "Roll the Bones" tour in St. Louis and "Counter Parts" in North Carolina. Just amazing.Originally Posted by Brackneyc

I’ve seen them a few times too. They We’re my first concert ever. I saw them in Detroit. It was the Signals album.
I also prefer the earlier stuff myself. The opening to Tom Sawyer always pumps me up.If you poke a bear in the eye, expect a bear like response.
