RIP Neil Peart

[Citanul]

Rush drummer Neil Peart dies aged 67

I know that Rush were pretty much done, but I still did have a smidgeon of hope that they'd still do something, even if it was just once-off, but that puts an end to that hope.

R.I.P.

I think I saw Rush three times in concert.

Being Canadian, I'm sure he will issue an apology to Rush fans for passing on too soon.

 

[dzheremi]

Dang it...I laughed at that. Sorry. (Not Canadian; just feeling bad.)

In all seriousness, RIP Neil Peart. I'm neither a drummer nor even particularly a Rush fan, but there's definitely a reason he's considered one of the greatest rock drummers ever. That is unlikely to ever change, nor should it.

 

[timothyu]

Buckle up. There is going to be a rush, no pun intended, of musicians moving on shortly.

 

[Leboman]

He was definitely one of the best rock drummers to ever live.

RIP Neil

Saw Rush 3 times. My favorite Tour was the 2112 tour! Neil was the second best rock drummer right behind (Bonzo) John Bonham.
