- No such things as bad days, just bad moments
A notable drummer and lyricist for sure but Geddy Lee’s voice grates on my nerves. So I listened to Rush not all. Kind of ironic because somehow I wound up with nearly all of their LP’s.
But what Neil Peart did do which I enjoyed far more was author the books about his motorcycle travels. I got more from Neil Peart the traveller than I did from Neil Peart the musician.
Sometimes the two overlapped and it was interesting to read about Rush tours and shows from that perspective.

Saw this from a news site.. ummm... "Ok Millennials" LOL.. some humor on a dark subject.. whoever wrote that article aint gotta clue. No slight to YYZ, but...
"Rush’s most successful album was 1981’s “Moving Pictures,” which sold four million copies and featured the rock hit “YYZ,” helping the band earn its first-ever Grammy nomination (they earned seven nominations throughout their career). "
