Neil Peart
You’ll never see better rock musicianship than in this song, “Freewill” live in Cleveland. Watch from the 3:10 to 4:12 mark for some of the most spectacular playing ever. The look on Neil Pearts face at 4:12 is priceless because he knows they just pulled off the hardest part of the song flawlessly, and you’ll notice and hear that the crowd goes wild at 4:12 at what they just witnessed. I’ve seen Rush 7 times and each time was amazing. Rush is a Rush plain and simple, you either get or not.

Just too bad all that screaming early in their career pretty much shot Geddy’s voice by then. I liked Rush a lot more when Geddy wasn’t screaming like a banshee all the time.
No idea why I said Dan.. o.o (real brain fart there :P )
That was a good clip. One of the things I noticed was that Geddy seemed to be pitched much lower than the album for much of the song. The instrumental middle was freaking amazing.
