Rock is truly dead.....

Just the other day Mike Portnoy was denying a rumor that said he was doing a 40th anniversary Permanent Waves tour with Lee and Lifeson. I wonder where that rumor came from. Someone must have known he was sick.

Damn this hurts so much...dude had it pretty rough for the last third of his life or so (read into it, if you don't know what I'm talking about). Thanks for all of the music and lyrics Neil, you will be missed

On Aug. 10, 1997, Peart's first daughter and then-only child, 19-year-old Selena Taylor, was killed in a single-car accident while driving to university in Toronto. Just months later, Peart's common-law wife, Jackie, was diagnosed with terminal cancer and later died. Peart told his fellow Rush bandmates on the day of his daughter's funeral they should "consider me retired." He would later go on a 14-month motorcycle trip across North America, through Mexico to Belize and back, chronicling the journey in his book, Ghost Rider: Travels on the Healing Road, before rejoining the band.
highly recommend the book if you are so inclined

His Solos were epic, but more importantly, were the things like on Red Barchetta Freakin awesome.

Someone who truly deserves the term of The GOAT.
Monumental loss for rock. Even in retirement.
