All I can imagine is their hearts hurt everyday knowing that their drummer and great friend is know longer with them. God bless Rush and god bless you Neal.
Agreed sir. As a percussionist. For 45 years my influence. Always bought more equipment. Temple blocks. A gong. Ok with me. I bought my first 16 pc set at 16. The more the better to play. Mancini picked me to play at 1 concert. Good enough for me. I did play for the USAF. But I didn't pursue to be a professional. Logistics and civil engineering more my thing.
@@kevinmcgiffin10 As a percussionist, every Rush concert my eyes on Neil. In 78, I bought a 15 piece kit. Then added more. Temple blocks and more. He always added more. Irreplaceable percussionist. 😭😭😭
I was inducted into the Rush universe at age 11 and, as a precocious young lad immersed in music courtesy my parents, I began to consume every Rush release. In 1979, my mind is blown by 2112 before I retreated down the rabbit hole into Caress of Steel. Thus began my obsession with Rush that spanned several decades. People laughed at me in junior high because I was different. I laughed because they were all the same.
With a heavy heart I would like to say to the family & friends of Neil Peart, you have my sincerest and utmost condolences! What a profound loss this is. The world is a little bit darker now without you in it Neil, you will be missed and never forgotten. 😢
This was the song that really sold me on Rush as a young musician. It has such amazing technical riffs, patterns and changes. A song like this never gets old...
In 1976 I was 15 years old and went to see BOC.....the opening act was an unheard of Canadian band named Rush.....they played this and changed my life.....
At the beginning of the that tour they played at an ice skating rink outside of Chicago. There were (maybe) 500 people in attendance, most to see opening act Kansas. Two months later, they sold out a solo gig at the 2500 seat Riviera Theatre in Uptown. I was fortunate to be at both shows.
me too same year same tour also. I seen them with KiSS also, the next year I believe. Seen them 13 times total mostly late 70's and most of the 80's shows
i'm sad, i got so really sad when i heard the news. i'm sure he's happier now, and he has every right to depart as his wishes when he wishes. but please know neal, as i'm sure you do so overwhelmingly so right now,..we miss you, we are completely impressed and inspired by you. big hugs and blessings of peace and tranquility to all three of you, and to neal's family. most of all, thank you for all the great incredible music you guys created and shared with us. i miss you sir! thank you.
He folks, you have to understand just how underrated Alex is, the guys guitar pieces and playing are brilliant, he has to be in the top 5 best for creativity
When I saw this live, 2112 blaring in my ears by the masters, this huge crowd of people cheering, it made me think that there still is hope for this world.
I'm now 58 years old and will honestly say RUSH is 1 of the GREATEST bands of ALL time. I 1st saw them when i was 15 some 43 years ago and i went and saw them live a total of 11 times in my life and it's as good now as back then..
For any aspiring drummer, this is the final exam. You HAVE to know this album from front to back. My arms would ache trying to play this, but it was well worth the effort. I'm sorry that they aren't going to tour anymore, I would have liked to see them once again.
@@RockfrdDrm Geddy and Alex said that they would like to tour again and hope it happens.. 2112 is my favorite album as well and listen to it everyday...Saw Rush over 30 times in my life and the best live performances ever...
Pouring love ❤️ on Mr. Lee, Mr. Lifeson, family and friends and the Rush community as a whole. My heart aches yet videos like these remind Us why we loved you to begin with. Thank you Mr. Peart, for bringing yourself to Us, for your strength and your wisdom. We are blessed to be in your presence...
I was privileged to see this performance twice. I bought "2112" while I was in the military. There will never be another one like it. Rush created their own language.
One of the best things about going to a RUSH show is seeing how the older generation is passing along good music to the younger generation. Hope IS NOT lost!!!
I first heard The Professor at 5 years old, on my Snoopy transistor radio, late at night in bed using the earplug so my parents wouldn't know. I found the local rock station, 99KG, and heard Tom Sawyer and thought..."What is this luscious candy in my ear?" That became my meter as to what good rock and roll should sound like. I'm now 47 years old and Neil is still my meter to this day. Rest easy, Professor. Your rhythms and lyrics have touched and validated many many souls.
I was 16 in 1976 and living in Knoxville Tn. When I heard Rush was coming to town . Me and my friends went to the concert 1.5 hours early just to lean against the rail on the floor of the coliseum . Today is 2018 and I've been playing Rush on my guitar and listening to the boys every since . God bless God ,God bless my family , God bless Rush . That pretty much says it all ! ! !
Same here!! I STILL live in Knoxvegas. The Civic Colosseum hosted great shows back in those days!! 1981 Rush was there again for the Moving Pictures tour!! I arrived SIX hours early for that one!!
I saw Rush when I was 16 in 1976 . Seems like they came with Foghat. Yeah. I'm not really sure it's been a day or two. Get on from Amarillo Texas. My favorite Rush album is there first album there White Album. My favorite Rush song is off that album working man. I sure do miss the 70s that was a blast
I was 16 in 1977 and got my first job working at Edinburgh Zoo. My first weeks pay got me Rush’s ‘Caress of Steel’ and then in September ‘A Farewell to Kings’ came out which blew me away. Sadly, I’ve never seen Rush live but have loved them since 1977.
To bad rush is into the occult and don't believe jack about God or the Bible might be why he took Neal's daughter and first wife within six months of each other back in 1996
@@marcwoods8608 an absolutely shitty and un-Christlike thing to say. Please pray to your invisible imaginary god so that I may never again have to be aware of a person as shitty as you.
God thank you for an amazing childhood. Sitting on your floor with your new album, cover art, reading eveyword like your life depended on it. You sing along with the lyrics. Over and over and over and over and that's not enough. Can't wait to save up and go to the mall, hit up the listening booth, all day Saturday. 🙌 Thank you...
I remember when I seen the 2112 tour for the first time... We high schoolers thought they invented fire. Damn they were GREAT. RIP NEAL Your truly missed by Millions
Falou tudo irmão. Se tivessem nascido na Inglaterra, teriam sido a maior banda de todos os tempos. Músicos com técnicas excepcionais, e o melhor baterista de todos os tempos. O álbum 2112, pra mim, está entre os 5 melhores da história do rock.
I've seen Rush 18 times Farewell to Kings tour was the 1st time and many times after including a road trip to Toronto and Molson Amphitheater they recorded that night & picked resist as 1 of the live tracks on the next live LP. I was wearing a KSHE 95 pig shirt got interviewed ( a simple hello ) by 1 of Toronto's rock station's after the show!!
I SAW RUSH FOR THE FIRST TIME IN LETHEBRIDGE ALBERTA.CANADA.IN 1979....AT THE LETHBRIDGE..HOTEL PUB...THEY WERE GREAT..IT WAS FREE TO SEE THEM BACK THEN.....I PLAYED THE PUBS BACK THEN ALSO...YOU HAVE TO DO WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO.TO BE NOTICED....CHEERS..WALLY
Early 70's... Bad Company was THE big band to see... Civic Arena in Pittsburgh, PA... Rush, an unheard of and unknown band opening the show... 3 encores AFTER Bad Company was booed off the stage!
Hard to believe Bad Company was booed off the stage. They had one of the best voices in that band. I saw a tv special awhile back and even as older men they were still very good.
2112 was the first album I heard from Rush. Since then, I have been a loyal Rush fan. I am saddened by the passing of Neil Peart. He was a man of integrity, wisdom, depth and grace. He will never be forgotten. His legacy will live well past 2112.
Grown up and grown old with these fine gentlemen Loved the journey and they've been my musical saviours all the way through Older but what a history and no other artist come close to matching them in my aged eyes Masterful Saw them on this tour and truly incandescent Keep it 2️⃣1️⃣1️⃣2️⃣
Saw them on the Exit Stage Left tour and was in the top level at the Philadelphia Spectrum sitting on the side of the stage and was anle to view down into Neil's drums. What a show it was by all 3. Remember it well 30 plus years on. Thanks to Rush for so many years. Few bands deliver so many opportunities for their fans to make great memories.
My son and I saw that concert at DTE when he was six years old he still talks about he's such a great drummer he is why I picked up sticks thank you for the music and you will be missed
Thats because they actually fucking cared about the music they created and how they performed it . If it was good enough to put it out on LP, cassette , CD etc , then why the hell change the arrangement ? The people want to hear the hits ......as the hits .
The reason is that practice time for Rush was longer than many other group's actual stage time. They made the complex look easy with gestalt force and sheer willpower to the end.
Everyone said that Neil was the quiet reserved one in Rush. I believe he was the loudest, not only with his music, but how he inspired his fans. He will be missed but NEVER forgotten. RIP brother
RUSH, ty for all the great music. The late 70's and early 80's have so many great memories attached to you three gentlemen. You guys have always been a class act on and off stage thank you so much.
Back in the day when Rush came on the scene they were considered weird, strange, out there, not mainstream but forty years later and 40 million album sales, one can say they have arrived, "Xanadu" is still one of the finest art rock pieces ever.
Great point. Prog rock wasn't really a thing. The best music that came from Canada besides rush was heart. I think they were just getting started as well. So you figure what was big in music back then. Blues rock, disco, funk, punk. The first record came out in 74 if I'm not mistaken. And John Rutsy was on drums. Very different time.
I remember buying 2112 from Sam the Record Man on Yonge st. in Toronto when I was 13 years old. Rush is by far my favorite band all-time! This never gets old for me and I feel the same way anytime I hear anything off 2112!!
I can't believe these 3 kids made this fantastic album. The skills n the mastery of their instruments the thoughtfulness and the idea n the feel behind every note n every song I mean everything at such a young age it's unbelievable n amazing. They were in their early 20s when they created all those best songs and albums (in the universe)! 1st time I heard Rush (Xanadu live in 79) I couldn't believe there were only 3 ppl in the band.... I'll miss Neil terribly and feel even more terrible for his little daughter and wife. relatives n friends Geddy n Alex but I'm sure he's in a very nice place where we can't even imagine because he was a very nice guy and helped the poor n needy all over the world he built homes for poor Africans etc. God bless him...
I saw rush at the verizon amplitheater in irvine Ca. during there snakes and arrows tour and it was my birthday and my very first concert it was fucking awsome all hail GEDDY,ALEX,and NEIL the Rock Gods !!!
Attention all planets of the solar federation, 7 words repeated 3 times = 21 We have assumed control, 4 words repeated 3 times = 12 The brilliance of Mr Peart : )
Alright dipshit play side one of the album all plantets of solar federation played backwards says plan as day all sin for Satan rush very much in the occult
Breaks my heart. The best 3 man band. God Bless you Neil.
Not quite up there with ELP and Hendrix's band.
tixximmi1 In what way are they “not quite up there”?
Me too. I miss this band and Neil so much.
Cream was 50 times better than Rush.
@@justdoit8014 hahahah that's not incorrect but how long did they stay together? I forgot
You have got to hand it to Rush. They are the only entertainers in history to have rotisserie chicken display ovens as stage props.
And, Mr. Potatoe Head. Lol!
Don’t forget about the 25 foot inflatable hat and rabbit
I can NOT imagine what geddy and Alex are going through. These guys were as tight as 3 people could ever be. RIP the Professor.

We appreciate that, but we can't forgive you for the whole Bieber thing....

To see Neil Peart's drum solo was worth the price of admission.
Back in the day when Rush came on the scene they were considered weird, strange, out there, not mainstream but forty years later and 40 million album sales, one can say they have arrived, "Xanadu" is still one of the finest art rock pieces ever.
Ben d'Avernas ; Xanadu, my all time favorite song- PERIOD.
My all time favorite RUSH song! Used to love the video of them performing it live in Frankfurt. No longer available on youtube. :/
In my very own humble opinion. Rush best 2 songs ever is; Xanadu and Bastille Day.
Great point. Prog rock wasn't really a thing. The best music that came from Canada besides rush was heart. I think they were just getting started as well. So you figure what was big in music back then. Blues rock, disco, funk, punk. The first record came out in 74 if I'm not mistaken. And John Rutsy was on drums. Very different time.
Yes, Xanadu was track amazement, Olivia very good and ya ya sexy
there's Canada's rock anthem right there folks ! proud to be canadian, yesrrieee !
These guys are all over 50 by now and I find it amazing that they can still play this song at the intensity of when it was released. Damn.
Neil made “Animal “ look like a puppet.......best ever!

History is forever in a debt of gratitude that these three guys came together.
Rush is proof that three still equals a crowd. Great job guys.

These Guys Rocked me away from Southern Rock after Skynyrd crashed in '77. Awesome Craziness I Enjoyed every trip.
First saw them live 1977 at zembo mosque in Harrisburg, Pa. with Angel. Loved them then, been a devoted fan ever since.
