A little about me and this channel:
My name is James Aubrey IV and I just recently graduated college from Iowa State University. After college I decided to take a leap of faith. So I moved to San Diego California to pursue my passion for videography/ KZfaq. Overall I'm a pretty chill person, outside of KZfaq I like to longboard, dance, play video games, lift weights and hangout with my friends. I know that success on KZfaq won't happen overnight but I'm willing to stay patient and put in the work to try to prefect my craft daily. This KZfaq channel will be centered around my life after college. You will be able to see all of the ups and downs on my journey to success. So if you like the content make sure you subscribe so you can be apart of the Rome Life Family. (Let's build our own personal Rome's together.)
What is the Rome Life ? And What does it mean to be apart of it?
Rome Life is something I started during my Sophomore year of high school (one of the worst times in my life) it started off as me documenting my journey to recovery from my shoulder surgery but eventually it turned into a platform that I could use to encourage myself as well as others to chase our dreams.
Rome Life isn't just a saying it's a way of life and for the people who want to be apart of it have to realize that. Rome wasn't built in a day it took a lot of handwork time and most importantly patience. So you can't expect your dreams to be any different

Almost forgot: Don’t feel bad about not knowing who Neil Peart was. I’m sure most Rush fans will agree: Rush has been criminally under appreciated for YEARS. It’s a low down dirty shame that these 3 exceptionally talented musicians had been overlooked by Rock N Roll Hall of Fame for so many years, despite earning 50+ gold, platinum and double platinum records over the past 47 years. They were only inducted (after releasing their last studio album) in 2013, nearly 40 years after the release of their first album.

@@19DrumFreak89 I hear you, but among the folks with whom I frequently socialize, none can name a single member of Rush?! Personally, I easily consider Lifeson to be one of the best guitarists I’ve ever listened to. I have several copies of “Victor” (Lifeson’s solo project from 90’s) where he just cuts loose, something not often heard with Rush? I’d encourage all Rush fans to check out both Victor and Lee’s solo album called “My Favorite Headache” from 2000. These solo albums were recorded during those tragic years when Peart suffered the loss of both his wife and daughter within 6 months. That six year break led to the release of “Vapor Trails”, one of my all-time favorite Rush albums. Despite the release of the Vapor Trails Remix, I still prefer the noisy, clipped original release. “Ceiling Unlimited” is simply sublime.

Let me give you a couple of names, DAVE WECKL Considered TOP DRUMMER IN JAZZ, FUSION. He has an amazing sensibility, when he plays hard and aggressive he can make jump out of your seat. HE IS INCREDIBLE NICE WITH THE FANS. I'VE SEEN HIM TWICE. HERE IS A LITTLE STORY, HE WAS ON TOUR AND ABOUT 2 MONTHS BEFORE I EMAILED HIM ASKING IF I BRING A DRUMHEAD HE COULD SIGN IT FOR MY DAD. DIDN'T ANSWER. CONCERT DAY HE DECIDED TO DO A DRUM CLEANIC. I STARTED TO APPROACHED HIM AND I ASKED HIM IF HE COULD SIGNED AND HE DIDN'T LET ME FINISH AND TOLD ME, "YOU ARE THE GUY WHO WANTS ME TO SIGN AND DRUMHEAD FOR YOU DAD. AFTER THE CONCERT I WILL SIGN IT AND TALKED TO YOU" CONCERT ENDED CAME OUT THE STAGE GRAB A BEER, AND HE ASKED ME, "SO THE DRUMHEAD IS FOR YOUR DAD?" I SAID, YES!!! HE IS THE ONE THAT INTRODUCE ME IN YOUR MUSIC" AFTER THAT I ASKED HIM IF I COULD HAVE A PICTURE TAKEN WITH ME AND HE WAS SO COOL. NEXT TIME IF SEE YOU I HOPE YOU CAN SIGN IT AND A DRUMHEAD FOR ME" HE TOLD ME, "ABSOLUTELY" ANOTHER TOUR CAME UP AND HE PLAY IN MY CITY. I GOT TO THE VENUE EARLIER AND HE SAW ME AND CAME TO ME AND TOLD ME IN A VERY COOL WAY "HOW ARE YOU DOING!!? AND HE TOLD ME AFTER THE CONCERT I'LL SEAT AND TALK TO YOU, BUT NOW LET ME TAKE YOU INSIDE THE VENUE AND WATCH THE SOUND CHECK" CONCERT ENDED AND CAME TO ME AND ASKED ME "DID YOUR DAD LIKE THE DRUMHEAD? FROM MY LITTLE BAG I PULLED A PICTURE OF MY DAD WITH THE DRUMHEAD IN ONE HAND A LITTLE SHEET OF PAPER SAYING "THANK YOU FOR THE WONDERFUL AUTOBIOGRAPH!! HE WAS STUNT.... THEN HE SAID, DO YOU HAVE THE PICTURE OF US? I PULLED IT OUT SIGNED IT AND TOLD ME "WHATEVER YOU HAVE I'LL SIGN THEM" AT THAT POINT HE HAD PROBABLY ABOUT 7 ALBUMS" You will never going to read or hear from a fan a nice story about that guy. NEVER!!!!! This is This one is AKIRA JIMBO. Japanese. Band CASIOPEA. HE HAS THE MOST INCREDIBLE INDEPENDENCE THAT NOBODY HAVE BEING ABLE TO DO WHAT HE DOES.

I watched some of "The Decline of Western Civilization Part ?" where Gene Simmons made fun of Rush members because they were reading rather than getting laid and partying. obviously Rush is more technical as musicians than KISS (sucks). guys have followed them around the world for decades. with the same fans in the front rows they watched each other getting older like receding hair lines and some fans gained weight lol. seeing Rush 100 times is not out of the question.

Lakeside park, tom Sawyer, ghost of a chance, roll the bones, new world man, the fountain of lamneth, the temples of spyrinx, tears, lessons, I could go on for days. As awesome as his drumming is, the man was well read, poetic, socially conscious, and in general a deep person with compassion for the world he lived in. That's his real legacy. He married one woman, stayed with her until her death. Was not a drunk or druggy like so many rock and roll musicians of that era. And you seriously belittle and insult him calling it "drumming" the man was a percussionist. Perfectionist. In later interviews he mentioned he hated playing tom Sawyer live for the fans because even for him it was so hard to do it right every time, and he felt he cheated his fans if it wasn't perfect every time. That gentleman is the mark of a professional percussionist that loved the craft more than his ego.

Geddy and Alex gave him the nickname “The Professor” due to his love of reading while on tour. His nose was constantly stuck in a book. He was quite content to sit on the tour bus and read while the other guys met with fans, his lyrics in Limelight allude to that, “I can’t pretend a stranger is a long awaited friend”. For his drumming skills he was called, “The Master”. He grew up in the city I live in and I go to Lakeside Park a lot, it reminds me of their music and Neil’s impact.

Very few people master anything to the level Neil mastered the drums. He was also a lifelong student. Even once he was well established as one of the greatest rock drummers of all time, he still sought out lessons from teachers who he could learn different styles from. Truly dedicated to his craft. And yet he was also the bands lyricist as well as a prolific author. Fun fact he used to bicycle from city to city while on tour. This man knew how to live to the fullest. Just an incredible human being. Experience to extreme!

Neil Peart (pronounced pEErt) was nicknamed the “professor” since he made a series of instructional videos for drummers. His career spanned from the late 1960’s to 2018. That’s roughly 50 years! During that time he spent countless hours perfecting his art, and worked with/mentored under numerous drumming greats. The solo you just saw (and his set) is the culmination of years, and years of study. Neil said he was always trying to improve, and perfect his solos. Is he the greatest drummer of all time? That’s pretty subjective. I would say that their are other solos by other artists out there that are comparable to Neil’s, but they’re different in style, feel, and sound. I’m sure if Neil were alive today he would say that his playing is a recipe inspired by generations of drummers. Personally, I think he IS the greatest drummer of his time, and will be remembered as a legend for generations to come. I’m glad you had the opportunity to be exposed to his art. Thank you for the video. Stay safe.

Small correction, Neil had been called the professor since long before those instructional videos. On the All the World's a Stage live album, Geddy even introduces Neil as the Professor when he starts his drum solo. He also retired in 2015 when they finished their last tour. You can never have too much Neil!

He also taught courses in modern poetry at the University of Toronto, I believe. I think this was in the mid 80’s or 90’s.

From what I've heard, Neil recognized the greats that he learned from, that he stood on the shoulders of giants. This particular solo give homage to the jazz drummers like Buddy Rich. This solo, while awesome, isn't his best work- his best work was with his bandmates Geddy and Alex, and the amazing music they produced for 40+ years.

Neil Peart was the GOAT of drumming and he was one of the best behind Buddy Rich. In progressive rock he is and always will be untouched.

What I love best about Neil…. Even when he was at “the top of his game”, he was humble enough to think “I still need to get better”….AND THEN WENT AND GOT DRUMMING LESSONS!!! And according to Neil, it helped him. If that doesn’t bust one’s ego….I DON’T KNOW WHAT WOULD!!!

The late great Randy Roads had the same work ethic and determination. While on tour, he would look up a guitar teacher in the phone book and go take a “Lesson”, with the idea of “there’s always something to learn”.
