+Darren Clark Hi Darren, it's funny because I feel exactly the same. Although some people in my life think I am well spoken and articulate, I feel like Neil is a professor and I am a student. Neil is an inspiration to me whether I am on my bike cycling or hearing him speak with George. I was listening to "Middletown Dreams" today and I couldn't help thinking that Neil is a survivor. If I lost my daughter & wife like he did, I just don't know if I could go on. He has demonstrated how a person can endure a world that came crashing down and come back, re-group, stay positive and return to his profession albeit with frustration & challenges.

My interaction with him, to the extent that there was an interaction, was between his home town of St. Catharines and Hamilton where he was to play a gig for which I had tickets and to which I was travelling. He passed me on the Queen Elizabeth Way around Grimsby as he and Brutus were speeding past on their motorcycles on the way to Copps Coliseum for the gig. That's the closest that I know I was to him but, alas, I was just another driver in a vehicle on a 6 lane highway full of traffic.

Neil’s been gone 2 years, and yet I am continuously inspired by him, and his philosophies on life and being “in the moment”. Neil may have never gone to college, but his level of knowledge about a myriad of things and his awareness of the world around him sounded more intelligent than most of the tenured university professors I have heard in my life. I would have paid a handsome sum to take a class from him, no matter the subject. And you could sense that he would have been a tough but fair instructor.

You can see how the interviewer is drawn in by Neil’s eloquence when explaining his pursuits and he is riveting to listen to while both speaking and playing. Neil had a zest for life. The best word to describe Neil is inquisitive with regard to his curious nature and passion for knowledge. Rush is “ Thinking Man’s Music” and rightfully so. Neil will be missed. Many musicians have passed recently but, Neil’s passing was really heart wrenching. Thanks for the drumming prowess!

I saw them when they were the opening act for Styx at Queens University in my hometown of Kingston Ontario and it was a fantastic concert. I only saw them one more time and I'm kicking myself now for not seeing them more. They were so inevative and original with amazing lyrics to go along with the music. All three members were so gifted and their music catalogue shows it. R.I.P Neil !

I absolutely loved that Neil compared visiting the Grand Canyon to being blown back by a power chord, and then seeing the rock formations of Utah as having the grandeur of the music of Gustav Mahler. I honestly can't imagine any other rocker making such intellectually astute comparisons like that. (Although fellow band member Geddy Lee might be inclined to make similar comparisons himself. Possibly.) True genius indeed. And George, leaving aside those dark circles around your eyes, and the dreadful lighting here, what was with your death grip on your mic stand, dood? Good grief. Thought you were holding onto that for dear life, like if you let go, the room might begin spinning so fast you'd have been hurled into the darkest recesses of space. (I appreciate that now, in 2022, you don't need to hide behind a microphone or have headphones clamped on your head during the interviews/conversations. Like the one with Neil's friends and band mates, Geddy Lee, and Alex Lifeson that I just commented on at length. You're a much better, more confident and relaxed interviewer now, and don't seem to need the technical device crutches anymore, which is wonderful.) Outside of those minor quibbles, great interview. I too love listening to Neil speak, on any subject. I have not heard it come up but I wonder if Neil narrates the audiobook versions of his books. Because, honestly? If he has not, he should. Neil's voice is perfectly suited for audiobook narration. Not to mention ASMR... (I've said this elsewhere, but RIP Neil.)

This is an interview I can never get tired of watching because it captures Neil as a real guy talking about what he really cares about, observing people, connecting with them, and exploring human nature, which is why he was such a great drummer and so in tune with all of it. So strange to think he found out he was sick just about a year after this interview. He found out he had glioblastoma in August 2016, and at that point he was having a difficult time finishing his crossword puzzle, but here he seems sharp as a tack. I still can’t believe he’s gone.

BUT.. i knew the man.. and hold dear ALL those memories....because sometimes, fond memories is ALL that remains.. and the only things that last as time keeps slipping through our fingers.. as well as those who are gone.. and those who remain

RUSH is THE PERFECT EXAMPLE of the fluidity of MASTERING TIME SIGNATURES! I play drums and there are a few things that you need to know about Neil Peart’s ( pronounced PEER-T) character: First he writes the lyrics so he knows in advance what TYPE of song it’s meant to be ie ballad, driver, etc. Second he COMPOSES on the drums… like a carpenter who looks at a set of blueprints before building the object. Neil lays out a SKETCH in his mind of the VOICES of the drumset and builds the song from there. He is also a great LISTENER knowing when NOT to step over Geddy’s singing or Alex’s solos! Finally, he had perfect timing and fluidity of time changes. He said himself that it’s not about COUNTING the time signatures as much as fluid motion to change the tempo without counting: in other words it should FLOW! He hates repeating the same drum patterns in the same song meaning if he plays a fill one way the first time around he will play it differently the second time around. IE. Rolls down the toms the first time around and triplets or quads (all four limbs) the second time around. In short there will NEVER be another like him on planet earth 🌍 🌏 🌎! REST IN PEACE PROFESSOR! With heart felt admiration and sincerity! Gary

Everyone should listen to what this wonderful man has to say! His genuine nature and deep humility should be a lesson to us all. The care he shows for every little detail is amazing! Neils thirst for exploration in depth for everything that he sees and does is a very special quality.Thanks for sharing your compassion for life with all of us!

All 3 members of Rush were/are very well spoken. If Neil hadn’t become a rock legend he could’ve been one heck of a narrator.

Neil was here as a blessing to all who paid attention. A multitalented person who played percussion, wrote magnificent lyrics and stories. He touched many souls in his time here. I miss him dearly.

When I first discovered Rush, one of the things that struck me was the songwriting. Neil’s song writting and his ability to express verbally and so intelligently to this day makes my heart full. He Is genuine, authentic, articulate - everything. He is the reason I fell in love with English and American literature all the way to college and beyond. I credit Neil ALWAYS for making reading and verbal expression the most hippest and coolest thing ever. I love and miss him.

Been playing the Grace Under Pressure album tonight Neil is such a good teacher. My inspiration to be a drummer as a young boy. Would not have picked up the sticks had it not been for him. Would have missed a wonderful life of playing songs. Being the heartbeat of the music. The brilliant mind of Neil is so incredible. Can listen to him speak for hours. Anyone involved with him personally received a gift that is priceless. We will miss you friend. Such a loss.

There's a reason he was called the Professor . Not just for his drums but for his life experiences, he was a great person and went through a lot of grief through his life to attain such greatness. Great interview!

Would have absolutely LOVED to meet Neil traveling via motorbike in our Italian Alps, shaking hands, talking about our bikes and pretending I didn't even know who he was...not even asking for a photo or an autograph..I would have cherished that moment very preciously. RIP Professor, hope you are riding your bike wherever you are!

Just heard today January 19, 2020 of Neil Peart's passing on January 7, 2020. I understand now why he announced his retirement from music a few years ago. It was the beginning of his private battle for his life. I'm just happy he lived to see his himself (& band mates) be inducted into the Rock N' Roll Hall Of Fame !
