Ni> Rush drummer Neil Peart has announced his retirement. IMO he is one of
Ni> rock music's best drummers. He has shared his awesome talent for 40 years.
Though he's definitely earned his retirement, it still sucks. I saw Rush on all
their tours since 2002 EXCEPT R40. (Ugh! Of course it's the last chance to see
Peart in that context that I miss.)
I do have to agree on him being (easily) amongst the best in rock. He's one of
the few who could do simply mind-blowing stuff, both technically and
theatrically, and at the same time keep things musical, never becoming
"clinical." That's something I'm sad I'll never get to see again.
