    Neil suffered from tendinitis for a few decades. It got real bad at the end. Plus having a young daughter around five at the time that they retired in 2015, six months later he found out he had cancer. The man is not only a legend, but was a beast on the drums and a intellectual inspiration to me.

    Neil Peart was definitely one of the greatest drummers of all time and my personal favorite. He plays both rhythmically and melodically.
    Most drummers are not able to utilize melody in the way that Neil was. When you listen to Rush songs his fills and grooves are very different from what you hear in most rock songs. Neil wasn't just a time keeper for the other musicians he utilized percussion to the fullest extent so that his parts accentuated the rest of the music melodically in a very unique way.
    He was a musical and lyrical genius and he is greatly missed. RIP Neil.

    My first concert was Rush in 1983. The first of 49 shows and never missed a tour from then on. I don’t believe in the “Greatest Ever” because they are all based on personal preference. But he was definitely one of the most influential .
    He had written that he wasn’t happy with this particular solo and the night before was much better. He would also travel solo on his motorcycle between shows - sometimes riding 300 miles on a show day and then playing the full show. This was a man who knew how to get the most out of a day.
    He truly deserves much better than he got in the end. But what a life lived. What a vapor trail to leave and what a humble, friendly anti-legend legend he was. RIP, sir. Generations to come have yet to discover your greatness.

    That was a Xylophone that you asked about and in the past he had a gong and tubular bells but you can bet that if he had a drum or another percussion instrument in his stage kit he hit it at least once and he hit it hard. Neil is by far the greatest rock drummer of all time and his lyrics of RUSH's songs were phenomenal. He retired from drumming in 2015 and sadly he passed away 2 years ago

  • @matthewhoag2609
    @matthewhoag2609 Год назад +6

    That instrument he is playing is technically called a percussion controller. It’s a synthesizer for drummers that you play like a xylophone. Since it’s a synth controller you can make it sound like anything you want. In this solo he has a marimba or xylophone patch loaded (those instruments have wooden keys), and I believe he triggers the gong sound at the end on it. His drum kit has a number of electronic “pads” that have programmable sounds. Some of them look like drums, some are the black cymbals, and he has foot triggers, too. Kinda like Guitar Hero drum pads, but professional-grade. He is actually triggering the horn sounds at the end with various pads and pedals. The only pre-recorded loop was the jazz song at the very end. In the early days Neil used a real glockenspiel, but the versatility of the programmable pads teplaved it with this thing in the early 80’s.
    PS - A lot of people confuse xylophones (wood keys) with glockenspiels (metal keys). It’s because the toy companies lied to us as kids, man!!! That thing you had with the colorful metal keys was NOT a xylophone - it’s a glockenspiel! Some sort of conspiracy among the toy makers, lol.

    • @89801wink
      @89801wink Год назад

      I believe this would be harder to play as a xylophone, as the keys on a xylophone are different sizes therefore allowing you to visualize what tone they are. As the keys are the same size on this, I believe it would be harder.

  • @coot1925
    @coot1925 Год назад

    As a drummer of over 50 years I think I can answer your question with regards to stamina. A band will usually rehearse for 4 - 8 hours straight many times a week to get everything perfect and tight. So a 3 - 4 hour gig is not that much of a physical strain. The other thing is using the natural bounce of the drum heads takes a lot of effort out of fast drum rolls, so unless you're trying to smash the sticks through the heads you don't hold the sticks too tightly and you let them rebound freely. You don't really use your arms so much as your rist so carpal tunnel strain can be quite common in percussionists. You need pretty good core strength as you spend a lot of time balancing on the drum stool with both legs lifted up at the same time. Apart from that, it's all about practice, coordination and technique. Simple really. I think every drummer wishes they were as brilliant as Niel, including myself. We all miss him very much. ✌️❤️🇬🇧
