Thanks so much to everyone for taking the time to watch this, and for the kind words! I’ll be uploading another Rush cover in memoriam of Neil tonight, and then hopefully another two before month end.
Outstanding dude. When I saw the kit I wasn’t so sure but this is easily the most accomplished cover of a Rush song I’ve seen. Loved the tasteful double bass work at the end - you made it your own. Bravo 👏
Badass!!!!! Savage, I never seen an upswing to a cymbal before! You make it look so easy, but I know it is difficult to play. It's my favorite Rush song.
Oh hell yes. I've been on a steady spree of drum-alongs trying to keep up with our dearly departed Neil. It still hurts a lot. You crushed this. Can't wait for more.
I've seen a few covers where drummers put their own flair on it, and it takes from the track. The little things Casey's added here fit it and serve well.
Absolutely LOVE this cover! Casey- I no longer can play at 65....but if I could, YOUR style/talent is what I wish I could've been.....then. And...some great showmanship with the over/under strikes for cymbal crashes and right hand stick flips. BRAVO! Subbed.
You absolutely CRUSHED this cover....note for note. I had to check it out 3x. Excellent mic'ing and mix; love the fat snare sound. VERY impressive, and my all time FAVE Subdivisions drum cover. KUDOS.
Amazing. It’s an odd thing that one can shed tears for someone you’ve never met. But Neil affected drummers on a different level. Sure others enjoy Rush, but for drummers, Neil made something special back on that kit that only those who struggle to play drums can appreciate. Of all The Professor’s parts Subdivisions is top 3 for me. It perfectly displays Neils immense talent to create mind blowing drums parts. Anyway, great tribute. Thanks for everything Neil... cheers
Hey Casey, probably the 8th time Ive come back to watch this clip, so very well and very joyfully done, have saved the link for future review based only on how much I enjoyed watching how much joy you get from playing this song. Keep it up dude, well done
First reaction: wow, he has his hi-hat mounted really high - he must go through a lot of sticks. Second reaction - chuckled when I saw pieces of wood flying everywhere. But enjoyed it :)
Really amazing cover of probably my all time favorite Rush song, Casey! You really brought the same emotion to the track that Neil did, and most of us Rush fans can identify with the lyrics in one way or another. Take care and again, amazing work!
Absolutely awesome !! I loved your stick trix, and the up & over smashing of that reverse cymbal, I think you threw some quad bass kicks in there somewhere too, oh, and you were singing it too, haven't seen that yet either; Excellent !!
WOWEEECUZOWWWIII!!! That was the best I've ever seen on youtube. Great camera angles at the right moments and it seemed you played it note for note except for the improv on the bass drum but man what a great video and rendition.
I had a few little things I added of my own: the 32nd note hi-hat runs before the verse, the double-kick stuff at the end, but yeah most of it was just directly what Neil played. Well spotted!
@@DinaDAndrea You’re so kind! Even though I love almost every single Rush song, this song in particular means the world to me, resonating with the teenage misfit that I grew from. When Neil died, I sat in my chair and wept for about an hour, then set up my cameras, mica and lights in a hurry and recorded this. That’s why I look so sad in the video. I love them so much! 🖤
@@CaseyLewis I feel this so much and couldn’t agree more. There is truly no other band like them, and Neil was certainly one of a kind. Your band, though, is quite good!! Ever come to Windsor, Ontario to tour?
@@DinaDAndrea Not often! We have some lower ON shows in September: Toronto, Hamilton and London, but that’s the closest we get for the foreseeable future, I’m afraid!
@@CaseyLewis that’s still a trek!! Btw I would love to hear you do a 2112 cover!! Or Malignant Narcissism. Or any of their other several amazing songs 😆
@@DinaDAndrea I think there is poorly recorded video camera footage somewhere of me performing Overture/Temples with some friends as part of a tribute show. But you definitely wouldn’t hear Rush at a Belvedere show…haha.
Great job!!! I don't know how your voice is but, if you can, and have Geddy's range, that's special....in my younger days, I played and sang Limelight, Red Barchetta, Spirit of Radio, Digital Man, Tom Sawyer, Entre Nous, New World Man and a few others that don't immediately come to mind..again KUDOS to ya, brother!!!👍👍👍👍👍
Un ser humano es un todo buena persona buen musico tener conducta intachable un profesional esa era neil por sobre todo un ser humano excepcional seguro dios lo llevo para escuchar buena batería...!!!!👊😁👍
Hey Casey…Amazing job. That had to be one of the best Subdivisions covers I’ve seen. Thanks for that!…btw, Ged’s vocals sounded different. Where did you get that from? Thanks, again
Thanks, man! I really appreciate that. I found the stem tracks online, stereo mixes of drums, bass, guitars, keys and vocals. I can’t remember where. I suspect they may have been taken from Rock Band by someone. Don’t know for sure.
Just a question.... Why do you have your Hi-hat som up high? It is a max height. It is destroying your drumsticks... It seems odd to me.. I keep low and nice i'm high. We are all different.
Slimjim Phantom I’ve released over 20 different records with 7 different bands and written and played session drums for a great deal more. So yes, I’m fully capable of constructing my own parts.
As a drummer of 49 years( started when I was 10) that loved and attempted to cover Neil for decades, I understand how difficult it is to nail a Rush song. You are really impressive. I wish I had videos like this back in the day. Would’ve been a lot easier to learn Neil’s drum parts. You are helping a whole generation of young drummers. Please keep it going. Again, impressive.
@@bhenrydrum77 when I started playing at 16, 34 years ago, I cut my teeth on Neil’s parts…laboured over them, agonized over them….played them constantly.
@@CaseyLewis understand that so well. Agonizing is a great way to put it😂😂. Every year they put a new album out I was blown away trying to figure out the new things Neil was doing. His passing was a sad day for all of us who listened and were amazed. Still miss him. He impacted countless drummers.

Thanks so much to everyone for taking the time to watch this, and for the kind words! I’ll be uploading another Rush cover in memoriam of Neil tonight, and then hopefully another two before month end.
I just can't get that first part down,it is darn hard to make my four limbs to do something different at the same time.Oh yeah, nice playing dude!
Do you as a rush fan understand his lyrics? He trying too teach us.
Congratulations,you nail it ,keep Neil Peart in your heart ,and the band rush fan for ever.
Thank you so much! That’s very kind. 🖤
Excellent job
Thank you, Tim!
Outstanding dude. When I saw the kit I wasn’t so sure but this is easily the most accomplished cover of a Rush song I’ve seen. Loved the tasteful double bass work at the end - you made it your own. Bravo 👏
Thank you so much! 🖤
watched about 25 drum covers of Subdivisions by some really talented drummers. You sir, just killed it and yours is my favorite. Neil would be proud.
Thank you so much! That’s very kind of you…and made my day. ❤️
Brilliant. I would start a Rush Tribute band just to have you be the drummer. You are amazing. Smooth, effortless and killer dynamics. Wow!!!
Thanks so much! That’s very kind. 🖤
Badass!!!!! Savage, I never seen an upswing to a cymbal before! You make it look so easy, but I know it is difficult to play. It's my favorite Rush song.
Me too! And thanks so much for the kind words! I really appreciate it. 🤘
Absolute flawless performance Neil would be proud dude
ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT !!!! Well Done Sir !!!!!!
Oh hell yes. I've been on a steady spree of drum-alongs trying to keep up with our dearly departed Neil. It still hurts a lot. You crushed this. Can't wait for more.
Solid drumming, man! The professor would be so proud his legacy lives on❤.
@@gijoemon225 That is high praise! Thank you very much. I’m honoured to be held in even the slightest regard next to him.
Simply perfect!!!!
Umm 3 years later, this is amazing!! Holy sh!t!
Pretty damn sweet. I play this in a Rush tribute but can still learn how to play better by watching other great drummers’ versions…like this one!
Thanks so much! That’s very kind of you!
Solid! Thanks for taking the time to cover this!
Thanks! Had to pay tribute to my hero! ☺️
That was the best drum cover I've seen of anything
Nailed it..making it look so easy..you have threpassion ,my friend.. Neil ..would of been so proud..RIP
A-W-E-S-O-M-E!!! I have goosebumps and tears in my eyes. Thank You!!!!
Wow. Awesome, Casey. Thank You. RIP Neil Peart.
Firstly: crushed it. Secondly love the respect to our dearly departed. Thirdly: crushed it.
I've seen a few covers where drummers put their own flair on it, and it takes from the track. The little things Casey's added here fit it and serve well.
Just checked out some of Belvedere. It’s awesome. Can’t wait for you guys to swing through L.A.
A sincere, passionately played tribute to Neil. He’d be proud of you!. Great technique and articulation.
R.I.P Neil Peart.
That was absolutely awesome.
Thanks so much, Thomas!
Tight tight tight!
Great job... harder song to play than it appears. You make it look so effortless, and you look like you're having fun while doing it!
Absolutely LOVE this cover! Casey- I no longer can play at 65....but if I could, YOUR style/talent is what I wish I could've been.....then. And...some great showmanship with the over/under strikes for cymbal crashes and right hand stick flips. BRAVO! Subbed.
Thanks so much, my friend! I appreciate it! I hope that you still play a little sometimes, even just for your own enjoyment! Drums are life! ☺️
You absolutely CRUSHED this cover....note for note. I had to check it out 3x. Excellent mic'ing and mix; love the fat snare sound. VERY impressive, and my all time FAVE Subdivisions drum cover. KUDOS.
@@dedexyz8475 That means a lot, man. This song is important to me, so I’m glad that I did it justice. 👍

This is that different mix . Geddy's vocals are the obvious factor . GREAT -JOB -MAN !

@@g.christopherlyn685 Thanks so much! Very kind of you to say. 🖤
Absolutely nailed it sir, outstanding work 🔥👌
Thank you so much! I’m glad you liked it. ☺️
Amazing, loved this to bits, thanks for posting.
Amazing! Such a fitting tribute.
Wow, a great tribute to a great man, good job sir.
Nice take on a great son Casey!!!
Your playing is almost as if I'm listening too the professor. Your cymbal play is on point. Great job !!!
Thanks so much! That’s such a lovely thing to hear. I appreciate it. ☺️
Love this, including the eye-level hi-hats! :D
Haha…thanks!
Really amazing cover of probably my all time favorite Rush song, Casey! You really brought the same emotion to the track that Neil did, and most of us Rush fans can identify with the lyrics in one way or another. Take care and again, amazing work!
That means a lot! Thanks so much. ❤️
Watched this for a second time. Really enjoy your playing.
Congratulations!!! Perfect :)))
You made it look easy. Super clean
Amazing tribute to a man that made all Canadian drummer try to be just a little better
Very nice dude!
Dude, the execution, the stick work and doing it on such a small kit. Impressive. Nice work.
Thanks, man! I guess it’s smaller than Neil’s….haha.
@CaseyLewis just a tad bit...but you make it work. Lol.
that was outstanding !
Thanks so much! I appreciate you watching!
Honestly as solid a tribute as I’ve seen. I will now be buying anything your band does without even hearing it. Nice work!
u wont b dissapointed
Absolutely awesome !!
I loved your stick trix, and the up & over smashing of that reverse cymbal, I think you threw some quad bass kicks in there somewhere too, oh, and you were singing it too, haven't seen that yet either; Excellent !!
Haha! Thanks man! I appreciate it! And yeah, I was full on singing, when I soloed the room mics I could hear me faintly in the background.
AWESOME
wow
Well done man. Added a lot of flare neil would have never done. I like it
I really appreciate that, Tim. Means a lot. ❤️
Great tribute man. RIP Neil Peart...
Awesome job. Keep it up!
My fav too. I was thinking about doiing a playthrough as well
Killer! Job well done.
Great cover!
Great drum cover!
I can feel ya love bro❤️❤️❤️
You killed it
Rip to a legend
Thank you for all you done.

Amazing video. 🔥❤️
Awesome brother.
Awesome! Nice tribute!
Dude...that was awesome
Thanks, Kevin! I appreciate it. 🤘
Well done.
I did not hear the "digital delay" on the snare like one can hear in other drum covers. That's a good drummer in my book.
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾Love your relaxation and fun playing this song. Very tidy stuff dude!👍🏾👍🏾Neil at his best in my opinion.
This is fantastic. Subdivisions actually used to be my favourite until Bravado and The Pass took over. You nailed it!

Awesome tribute, man! See you on May, 1st in Berlin! So stoked to see you guys play!
Bang on fella. Nice twirls too!
Thank you! Nice to have those appreciated…haha
Nicely done!!
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it!
Excellent!
So sick Casey, keep it up !🔥
Thanks so much! I will!
Nice...very nice...

Thanks, man! Yeah, I can sing and play pretty much whatever Rush tune, but my head voice is definitely less clean than it used to be.
Well done brother!
Thanks, Kevin! I appreciate it!
Beautiful piece Casey.

I like the sound and feel. I need power and I need space for my left hand on the snare. Just feels right for me.
You’ve got a cool name too! lol✌️
Haha…was thinking the same thing about you! 😂
Ok.now do mission. Jk. Do what ya want these are great
Haha...deep cut, man!
@@CaseyLewis its all rush. So amazing. Its that groove
Wish you where my neighbour
Aren’t we all neighbours on the internet, really? 😂
Not bad for a white boi!
Haha….thanks!
Can you play anything other than what somebody else does, apparently you devoted many, many hours to play exactly what Neil has written
Slimjim Phantom I’ve released over 20 different records with 7 different bands and written and played session drums for a great deal more. So yes, I’m fully capable of constructing my own parts.
I’m convinced, are you ?
Yep.
Wow, I can’t wait to hear some more drum karaoke, what a joke
You need to listen to some Stray Cats boy
Great job!!!
