Ardent15 Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 ...so here's an (early) happy birthday thread. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4c/NeilPeart.JPG/250px-NeilPeart.JPG Happy birthday, Neil Ellwood Peart, OC!! A truly inspirational and downright interesting man, in addition to being widely considered to be one of the greatest and most influential drummers alive! Here's to the man who continues to play drums and write lyrics (IMHO) better than ever!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mika Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Happy early birthday to a truly awe-inspiring man! He shows what one can do when one lives life passionately... and I respect that he wears more than just one hat, too - drummer, lyricist, author, observer...

Animate Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Neil Peart = REAL GENIUS! Happy Birthday to one of the most, if not THE most, fiercely independent, brilliant, driven, energetic, honest, and talented individuals of all times, all walks of life. He is the epitome of what real rock and roll is about and is the most fri@@Kn rock n roll guy out there- Even when playing Power Windows, or maybe because he does go out on a real limb, it is because he refuses to take the easy road out, to do or say what is expected of him, predicted of him, or what would make him the most money or the most popular guy out there.

LyndseyG Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 I remember hubby once told me hes not a fan of drum solos...when I was first getting into Rush I listened to A Show Of Hands for the first time and Rhythm Method came on. I remember thinking "This is great!" later I asked Brett why he didn't like drum solos and that I'd heard Neil's and enjoyed it. He said "Ah! That's Neil Peart, that's different!" Hell yeah!!

I told my wife about Neil's solo and she said she hated them as well, but after she saw them the first time she was forever changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
