  RIP Neil. You were a better person than you were a drummer, and you were the best drummer.

  I can't believe Neil Peart is gone. He and Rush have been such a huge part of my life, and there will never be a better drummer or rock band IMO. I've listened to thousands of hours of Rush music, and it will be forever entwined in my DNA. This is a very sad day for me, for all Rush fans, and for music in general.

  I'm so grateful Neil came out of the shadows a bit and did more interviews and press appearances in his later years. It's such a gift to have his voice and thoughts to leave playing as we all mourn his passing. He was an exceptional soul.

  It feels like I lost someone close to me even though we've never exchanged a word.  I can remember the anticipation of a new release and the joy from playing it over and over and how frustrated some friends would get from my incessant promotion of their music.  I haven't the words for all they've brought into my life.  Life won't be the same without them.

  Neil was a thoughtful person.  So sad he is gone.

  Rush was part of my education. I learned and discovered a lot through Neil's lyrics. Such an influence and above all an inspiration.

  Whether he inspired you with his drum stick or his pen, this is a man who defines the right way to live life on this earth.  Thank you for your humble lessons Professor.

  One of the few interviewers that actually pronounced Neil`s last name correctly.

  He sounds so vibrant and excited here; classic Neil, and this isn&apos;t even that long ago; must have been right before his diagnosis - how his world was just on the cusp of changing to tragedy again. It&apos;s beyond heartbreaking :( But man what a great interview, this typifies his humble intellect and thoughtfulness and appreciation for being in the position Rush has been in. Truly one of a kind
