They were going to play some tennis at a private club in town. I worked at that hotel so I knew their schedule. Alex was there a half hour early. It was just him and my friend and I. He was wonderful to us. The 3 of us talked like old friends. Then Neil and Ged came down. Ged said hi as he walked by. Neil was less than cordial and ran off like we were going to try to kill him or something. No worries. He is what he is. I don't hold it against him. He didn't know that we were just a couple normal guys that only wanted to say hello. It's my understanding he had some very unpleasant encounters with fans (or fanatics, rather) starting after they released MP -- heck, maybe it was 2112 when it started. In any case it's good to know someone doesn't hold that against him. People are who they are. Besides, what if it turned out he did have some kind of societal.. disorder (for lack of a better term)? Highly doubtful. He travels frequently (non-gig) and really seems to enjoy it. Not liking strangers slobber all over you is not strange or anti-social So, that's travels frequently on the back-roads with one companion, all the betterfor not meeting people, whilst wearing a big purple helmet, all the better for not being recognised whilst wearing it. Come on, someone with a real problem doesn't go out AT ALL and certainly does not do so for leisure. Having friends would be a problem too...and Peart appears to have some. Not wanting to be recognized and drooled over is not a societal disorder. I thought that's pretty easy to understand He knew full well what "fame" would entail. So he should be prepared for what he gets. There are plenty of ways to minimise attention: by his constant drawing attention to the fact that he doesn't want attention he is making a rod for his own back. My conclusion is that Neil Peart certainly has some sort of mental disorder. NEIL PERT = ATTENTION WHORE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
