the fool wrote:t's fact. when i go back and listen to some of my first rush bootlegs (and the first official live album) to hear that drum solo... then when i listen to the show i attended on the 'roll the bones' tour (allegedly their LAST), it is identical in its parts, simply switched the order around. pathetic.

but as i've said, this is a fruitless argument. peart-worshipers and mac users all have the same thing in common, and you're not going to change their minds. but do not dismiss what i said as fantasy when anyone with ears can clearly hear it's fact.

and once again i'm forced to point out that i didn't say he wasn't talented, or that i didn't feel sympathetic to his personal plight. he is, and i do. but neither of those things preclude him from being the most overrated drummer that has ever been rated.

incidentally, not sure why people keep bringing up peart here - is he a metal drummer?

It's pretty obvious that my next post is going to get me banned so I may as well go out with a bang eh? :x .
Before I do I thought I'd listen to suggestions and include the most scathing comments that you can muster. All in good fun but he did compare us Rush/Peart fans to 'Mac users' and this is simply not acceptable. Help please...if only to teach the man the use of a Capital Letter :-) .

I'd suggest giving him a virtual lobotomy but you may not want to venture up his arse because that's obviously where his head is.

I'm just wondering, if Peart is so overrated, who are these underrated drummers who could play circles around him?

Amen brother Elfie.

The assclown from the other sight needs a windowectomy.

That way he can see just how far his head is up his ass.

The Hair has left the building............................. :smt097 :rr:

if peart is overrated why are the only ones who says he isn't good the modern people who think death metal is the pinacle of drumming and people like danny carrey or some other joe nobody drummer to be the best? the same peopel who think zack wylde is the greatest guitarist ever...

Thankyou for the sentiments but I'm looking for sound bites to include in my final post before the ban. For example: the cool WHB wrote "

The other day I invited a neighbor who is a concert pianist to watch Peart's RIR drum solo. Though I fancy myself a bit of a musician, this guy was catching and pointing out all sorts of things in the solo that my uneducated ears would never have caught. For exapmle, at one point the pianist blurted out, "Whoa! Seven over five!" I thought that meant that he'd noticed Peart playing in a 7/5 timing. What he actually meant was that that he noticed Peart playing two rhythms simultaeously, one in five and the other in seven. They start together, and then of course they deviate after 5 counts, but eventually, if you can manage to continue them, they catch up to each other and you end where they meet up. He stated something like, "I only caught it because I once had to learn a piano concerto that did that. The untrained ear will never realize what's happening. He must be proving himself to himself, 'cause the audience is never going to catch it."

I can't think of many other rock drummers that would attempt such a thing.
