      People always talked about Mike Portnoy replacing Neil after he retired. I was always frustrated as no one can replace the master. HOWEVER, I do believe he is the ONLY one who should.

    Mike, you are exactly what the doctor ordered after a lot of tears. And, apart from the therapeutic benefit of laughter, auctioning off the drumkit (complete with autograph and boot marks) in favour of the American Brain Tumor Association is so noble. Your friend and hero, Neil, would wholeheartedly approve all of this for sure. Thank you, thank you, hugs to everyone.

Sadly after 26 to 30 years playing i lost my kit in Katrina. I've played keys since and recently guitar. Took custody of my kids back in 2006 and eviction was a torment in my worries had i kept playing. Renting was no option. I will one day get another. Honor you Neil Peart once more when I do I'll upload a video of YYZ live playthrough with your solo and some of my own. Rusty I'll be but I wont ever forget who I was as a drummer. My hats off to both of you guys. Neil RIP. And MP for making his way into my ears at 26. When I thought I was a bad ass. Had to learn your stuff. Barely. Hahah. I cannot imagine what I can do today. Soon my friends. Meanwhile i am on med leave ,kids all grown and I'm in a camper uploading the softer side of my music. Guitar atmos blues. My own genre. Heheh.
