Speaking of drummers. Don’t know if you’ve seen Foo Fighter’s drummer joined on stage by Alex and Geddy for YYZ. It’s on youtube and worth checking out. Happened this month?

Thanks, he didn't do too bad. What always impressed me about Neil Peart, aside from his prolific writing skills, was the fact that he could play songs like YYZ and the look on his face while he was performing was like he was thinking what he needed to pick up at the grocery store later on. Geddy Lee is also impressive, the man is hell of a bass guitarist. He's like a circus juggler in concert. Rush has been going strong for 30 years or better and what's sad is the current state of music. Instead of bands like Rush being found, we get Brittney Spears.

With one exception, Dream Theater. Mike Portnoy is the next Neil Peart.
