He wasn’t doing great, so it’s not a surprise, but it’s still a sad day for musicians.

By far the best drummer I've ever seen live.

Gryfter · Jan 10, 2020

I count myself fortunate to have seen Rush play live well over 30 times. Every drum solo by Peart was amazing and his lyrics were at the heart of many of their songs. He will forever be missed.

Never got to see Rush live. I'm a little young to have seen them in their hay day, but would have loved to see them nonetheless. That just wouldn't be the same without Neil Peart.

In the words of Algernop Krieger, Neil Peart stands alone.

"Professor Peart" -- I like the sound of that.
