Sorry, but as good as Peart is, the only thing he does that Buddy didn't do is play electronic drums...which Buddy probably would have done had they been invented during his lifetime.... By his own admission, even Neil bows to Buddy...see the liner notes for Burning for Buddy.
That being said, the "death-defying paradiddle" is pretty funny

Aiiii, and what's wrong with wood elves, eh? The Woodland King held a ring of power, a la Elrond and Galadriel...and Legolas, if you recall, was a wood elf...so whose a** needs to be kicked? The one who makes a complementary joke or the one who presumes to rebuff the complementor?
