"anyone who thouroughly watches the outro music during football playoff weekend would have noticed the at least three peart tributes over the last numer of outros, first one was ts, second one was freewill, and just now tpotr . thanks for the outros."


I could not find what the guy was referring to and I don't normally follow football or any other sport on TV. However, I would be interested in hearing what the post was talking about if anyone can help with that.

He wrote the best anti-SUV/Hummer song I've ever heard, that's for sure!

I think this video shows some of his best work (not being a solo) but a hell of an intro.

Church Drummers To Play 70-Minute Solos In Honor Of Neil Peart This Sunday

WORLD—Church drummers all over the world have announced their plans to play 70-minute solos during their services this Sunday in honor of Neil Peart.

Just as congregations begin getting into songs like "Reckless Love," "What a Beautiful Name," and "Who You Say I Am," drummers will just "let loose," calling churchgoers' attention to their percussion skills to the "cheers of the crowd." The planned solos will be "significantly longer" than church drummers' usual 45-minute solos.

The solos will alternate between time signatures throughout, from 10/64 time and 9/17 time to simpler time signatures like X/banana and Quasar/4, "just as Neil would have wanted." Church drummers around the world are also pushing their pastors and leadership teams to buy them several dozen new pieces for their drum kits, so they can give Peart the salute he deserves.

"I can't think of a better send-off for the Great One than building up into a solo on my 17 floor toms, pounding on my triple bass pedal that I definitely need, and then just going absolutely wild on my 67 cymbals," said Graceaholics Community Church drummer Bob Ward. "Solos like this will honor a great drummer and bring glory to God through my epic music skills."

Sadly, most of these drummers only think they are as good as Neil Peart, while they are more on the level of Lars Ulrich.

Reformed churches across the country are begrudgingly allowing the solos but reminded their drummers not to play "Freewill."

The church I went to while I was stationed at Fort Hood, TX had the preacher's 80 something mother playing drums. I'd like to see her tribute solo.
