Kidding aside, when I saw this pic listed in the Post’s obits, I was shocked at the death of Tom Hanks. So it’s a strange death for poor Neal Peart, because I was relieved that he died (rather than Hanks).
RIP to Rush’s drummer, who was much more than a drummer. He was also an accomplished lyricist, and authored several books, encompassing both fiction and non-fiction.
Remember Will Ferrell/Chad Smith drum-off?
Too bad they won’t have a Tom Hanks/Neil Peart.
Neil Ellwood Peart, you will be missed.
