    RIP Neil Peart

    Probably the only Canadian who wasn't a huge fan but, there's no doubt this guy was one of the best on the drums. Died of brain cancer, same as Gord Downie. Sad day up north

    I have never been a huge Rush fan for some reason, but he was definitely one of the best drummers ever. RIP

    That dude could bang those drums!! In my opinion one of the best drummers of all time. Watch this entire solo and you will begin to understand.

    Indeed! For anyone that has never seen the RUSH documentary "Beyond the Lighted Stage" I highly recommend it. It's without a doubt one of the best documentary's I have ever seen. RUSH was possibly the most talented 3 piece band ever. RIP Neil.

    Fantastic drummer, arguably the best ever! Not a huge fan of the obligatory drum solos, but I was when this guy hit the skins. RIP Mr. Peart.
