    • No, it's a top five song for me.

I sat upon porcelain pondering the masterpiece Moving Pictures which includes the five star song Limelight. Would you give that song up for a more normal interactive Neil Peart?

I don't get all the Neil bashing either. He is still 1/3 of the band that brought us all here in the first place. If Geddy or Alex had gone out and written travelogues people would probably be bashing

Why the criticism? Because he doesn't like fans knocking on his hotel door? He likes personal space in restaurants?

 

I just don't get it.

No, it's a favorite of mine. The pubic lice idea (from some one else, lol, this is a clean blueberry :P ) is funny, though. He would probably fill a whole book with complaining!

No. It's about another thread dissing Neil Peart.

 

In a lot of ways, I don't care about Neil Peart either. I say let him be and enjoy the music and memories.

Can y'all just stop it and leave Neil be?? I am so tired of the bashing Neil in threads. Neil is just being Neil, and so what if he does not meet up with fans or like adulation, I don't care. All I care about is the music, and I wouldn't trade that for anything in the world.

I have to ask - of anyone who would think less of Neil for retiring, or for wanting his personal space.

 

Would you think less of your parents if they wanted to retire? Would you think less of them if they wanted to be left alone in their lives? Would you demand that they not live their own lives as they saw proper?

 

He's a man, not an object to be used for our personal satisfaction. Just like your elders.

You probably think the same thing about Pol Pot and Vlad the Impaler! "I don't get all the Vlad bashing, so he slaughtered thousands what of it??"

Clowns that pose stupid questions while sitting on the crapper, should flush themselves down as well.

U know everyone can see that comment u made about slaughter, right??

 

Slaughtering people is not a joke or laughing matter, same for talking about people who have slaughtered others.

You're not really known for having a sense of humor. Telling people "that's how it is, how it ought to be" is what you're known for.

I do have a sense of humor, but what Tree joked about is not funny, so I did not laugh about that.
