MalformedEarthborn Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 I'm not in total denial so I believe that Rush is over and we won't see Neil, Alex, and Geddy together again. I also believe that Ged and Alex wouldn't go onstage as Rush without Neil at this point. However, I thought it would be fun to share who you think could work as a replacement for Neil in a hypothetical situation. I read that someone in an interview asked Dave Grohl which is about the worst thing I can imagine. My favourite drummer (yes, more than Neil) is Dale Crover from the Melvins. I don't think his style would work at all with most Rush songs but I would love to see them try hahaha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JARG Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Abe. He has the chops and he'd bring a sense of groove to Rush that they never had with Neil.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iQnxGppzGtM 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the OP, I'd say John Bonham (it's all hypothetical, right?). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vaportrailer Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Abe. He has the chops and he'd bring a sense of groove to Rush that they never had with Neil.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iQnxGppzGtM And he could help with the vocals! :PGreat drummer. Interesting set-up with the bass and hi-hat on the left. Cool!Holy tuning-key, Batman! The snare's tone sure dropped by the end. The perils of new skins.

HemiBeers Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 (edited) Geddy and Al have restraining orders against Mike Portnoy. He's been stalking them to get a mere whiff of a comeback tour. Sorry Mike, I don't think 2 hour drum solos would work out...and stop ringing their doorbells every hour.

RUSHHEAD666 Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Joel Stevenett https://www.youtube....h?v=1JoAdUluVVE Yep. I agree. JB got me into YYNOT a few weeks ago. I thought it was a hack job band at first and just such a poser copy cat band with a chick singer. But then after like three listens I totally got it. LOVE IT! I almost mentioned YYNOT to Geddy but I decided to talk about baseball instead. I made the right choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
