There is that, but still not rock. Great drummer, and an i fluence on many rock drummers, but not necessarily part of rock circles.

I'll check that dictionary, but in the meantime I'm impressed - as is everyone else in the world - by your eloquence, obvious accomplishments and success, and the evidence of your blazingly high intelligence.

I'm glad that Buddy Rich isn't rock tbh. Are we only talking about rock drummers so that Peart can be relevant while we throw around terms like "best"?

70s era rock drummers, yeah. And Peart is one of the best of that era. Rich and Krupa are the foundation of everything that came after them for sure though.

Geddy Lee sounds like an over-controlling girlfriend who won't 'allow' you to break up with her.

It is a FB meme that started a rumor. Unless I hear it from a Rush rep I will not believe it.

Oh look, Nea values physical instruments over electronics. I'd never have guessed.

Culture Shock mentioned FB, so I posted something I saw on FB, which btw I thought was funny till you killed it. I don't know what you're getting at tho. Like I don't know are you teasing me for being into Prog Rock/Acid Folk or Minimal Synth/Cold Wave?
