A couple of days ago, Rush announced Neil Peart’s death. He was one of the greatest drummers of all time and his style revolutionized Rush’s music. I’ve been in love with Rush so much that - in case Guga is not available - my username is always followed by 2112. Neil’s death means that I’m never going to see them live, and I’ll always regret that time in 2013 when they played in Köln as it was the closest they’ve ever been to me. ---
