He was always looking to improve.

I got my hands on 2000 ( according the the supplier ) bog oak many years ago. Made my Father an amazing livingroom table with it beautiful figured Bubinga. What an amazing wood to work with that Bog Oak was. Cut like butter but smelled terrible when cutting.

A rubber practice pad to the tones of an 80's steel kitchen sink. Ability starts from simplicity. Lincoln logs to practice galore doesn't give success until lots of $$$ is involved. Dw is a stienway piano type of company that likes approved artists from the record companies to help sell their instruments. All this tech does not make the drummer. The commitment to rhythm played on any surface on planet earth makes a pro musician.😮

You don’t know how lucky you are to interview the musicians and tour the factory where the greatest set of drums ever were made by the greatest musician who ever lived played on his final tour with the greatest band to ever be. Thank you so much for bringing this beautifully created video of some of the most beautiful people in the world today. I became a drummer because of watching Neil. From a musically inclined family that pushed me to play the lower brass instruments like trombone and baritone or the tuba. I always drifted back to the drums. So even though I played the brass instruments that taught me to read and write music in bass clef format, I ended up sticking with the drums. They are the heartbeat of all music in my opinion. Thanks to all who were in the video.

How on earth is the Newsboys drummer playing while his drum riser spinning? 😮

God I miss I brother. RIP

Man, what an experience to have gone through and to have such an eloquent thoughtful discussion from Neil.

the world needs more people like neil, alex, and geddy

Losing Neil was comparable to seeing a beautiful mountain range out your window every day and you admired it for 45 years, then you wake up one morning and it's gone, Neil wrote 99% of the songs for Rush from the beginning, fair well Professor, peace love and harmony (((((💗)))))

John Good has the goods! Great flick!

That voice that intellect. I wish I’d met him personally. Much missed😢

Thank you, what an amazing video. True artist. For you to get to meet Neil should be a lifetime memory.

That was just wonderful. The narrator was inspiring. Thank you.

My only issue with DW cross grain philosophy is that that can greatly be ruined by drum heads and hardware on the shells. Wraps are known to change tone as well. What good is a shell note if it can be changed by others add-ons? Also that would mean Keller shells and all the other top drum companies are junk. Hard to believe and even notice.

What a great man! Here’s a guy who kept his A game right until the end. What an inspiration and role model. A true professor.

@51:50 the Professor is clearly not happy to suddenly see those cameras and unknowingly asked to welcome the crew that John Good brought in. He shakes his head and seems pretty frustrated. He was going to wave to someone but he pulled back and stopped. Then he semi-wishfully motions as if to push them away. He is visibly upset. And then he goes and gives a great interview.

So fascinating! I have loved the drums since like age 4, though never knew what it takes to build such an amazing instrument. Thank you for sharing this most interesting video.

The hell is that abomonation of a thumbnail?

I could listen to Neil read the phone book and get inspired.

Your presentation alone is awesome I always was amazed with drum kits ; I had no idea that so much could be put into the production of a drum let alone a whole entire drum kit ; thank you ; I thank all of you people ; 1500 year old bogg oak wow ; p.s. I don't even play

Did anyone else cry when this first came out?

What an awesome production.

The best fuckin drummer in the galaxy

Whats makes peart so great was what made tom brady so great what made micheal jordan so great. No matter how much you accomplished no matter how high of a stature you're fans or peers regard you in there is always another level to reach. If men like these could have kept their prime physical bodies who knows how far they could have ascended.

We miss you Peart.

Rest in peace, legend 💐 🥁 ✍️

This just came up for me again and made me smile! I would say I hope that you get more than two sick days… that’s very unrealistic

The forest is a garden. A garden to nurture and protect.

Awesome Thanks for making a video and a story .I play DW For about 7 years . Still remember getting the drum kit in the mail was so exciting. You feel like you're playing something special with DW .

I love Neil. I wish he had considered more carefully WHO had bestowed this privilege upon him. What’s the source?

Every time I hear him speak, I swear I get some brain 🧠 cells back from what I wasted in the 70's Thanks TIP

Best drummer ever.no one will ever be able to measure up to him.rock on canada.

what a guy !

Never knew making drums was so very technical with regards to different woods,wood cuts and layering. But, then again, I'm a wannabe drummer that would wind up being train wreck before leaving the station 😂. Neils R-40 drum set must have cost a mint because it sure looks line one and sounds like one . ...LONG LIVE THE ULTIMATE PROFESSOR OF PERCUSSION!

Dear lovely likey ❤❤❤ please DW 😢😢😢I live in Iran and here is not DW even 1 kit 😢😢😢😢I need DW really just ❤❤❤in my opinion DW is the best drums on the world infact ❤❤❤❤❤I like so much DW

Neil Peart was an inspiration for me. I use a DW set and having seen the process here I was amazed to the core. Seeing Neil in concert on the R40 tour I never knew it that you built and embellishmented his whole set. I really loved the whole thing. 💙 😊

Billions of words can be positively spoken of Neil and his work that he was called to leave behind. None should ever be written or spoke above any else to lessen our honest respect and adoration for the accomplishments that Neil has achieved in his life. The power of perfection he not only gave to the audience and fans but to his own guaranteed satisfaction he was comfortable with. That perfection is his comfort. Neil has said, "You have to know you're at the top of your particular mountain, I guess. Maybe not the summit, but as high as you can go." - Neil Peart

all 3 members of Rush are and always be be extremely highly respected musicians and human beings, their intelligence in the music industry , IMO, is completely unmatched. RIP Neil, you are solely missed by all of us.

I loved the way Neil Peart described this 1500 year old Oak. Saying that it's quality was "supernatural" gave me chills. That was soooo cool.

We're did you see this on because I try to watch everything that Neil Peart done thanks for sharing

Wow dude ! talk about being at the right place at the right time . . . . NOBODY BUT NOBODY gets a Neil Peart interview. you're were lucky enough to get within the same zip code of the guy . The best part about a Neil Peart interview on a subject he is passionate about , is ya just got to wind em up and look at em go !

I like how Neil described the ancient river Olt winding through the Caspian’s. It immediately made me think of his lyrical line from the song Ceiling Unlimited from the Vapor Trails album “winding like an ancient river the time is now again” I thought that perfectly described the birth of that amazing drum set from that ancient old wood.

“But there was one particular set that crossed the line from epic to borderline sacred” That gave me goosebumps hearing that.

Still brings a tear to my eye realizing he's no longer with us. :( Neil Peart......he's one of a kind!

Michael Jackson hate this. But he never hate sugarfoot😂😂

Love admiration and respect! Oh and hes was a great drummer too!!

A true professional, master of his art. RIP Neil Peart.

An amateur practices to make it perfect once. A professional practices to make it perfect every time.

Sounds like a true Virgo to me...perfect, perfect, perfect!

Yooper here.Just a stones throw away from Esky.Cool vid!
