RIP. Great drummer, awesome lyrics. Maybe the greatest 3 man band ! I saw them for the first time in 1977, Buffalo, NY, Century Theatre. They played so loud, chunks of plaster fell from the ceilings. No one cared !

OMG laughing at Bubbles playing along with them (above vid), never saw that ! LOL.

2112 ? wow ! so many good ones tho',I always liked Fly by Night :

RIP, Neal.

An incredible drummer, student of music, and observer of the human condition. Unlike so many in the public eye he seemed to be a genuinely nice, thoughtful and humble individual. A loss for music and just in general.

I always loved the vibe at their shows. It seemed like the audience and band were all friends, family and neighbors in on some big open secret and nobody wanted to be anywhere else.

With Rush people looked forward to the drum solo. Not usually the case.

Some are born to move the world
To live their fantasies
But most of us just dream about
The things we'd like to be
Sadder still to watch it die
Than never to have known it
For you, the blind who once could see
The bell tolls for thee, bell tolls for
For you, the blind who once could see
Bell tolls for thee, bell tolls for thee...

RIP
