Dude, you nailed a very difficult drum part written by arguably the greatest rock drummer of all-time. That was amazing. You are a VERY talented drummer (with a great taste in music). Keep up the good work!
@@freemanwithoutthephd639 Always has to be some asshole comment like this. You may be the best drummer in the world but just tell the guy good job and move on. Insecure much?
@@freemanwithoutthephd639: "Easiest Rush song" is a phrase on par with "lightest sumo wrestler". Apparently, my band is covering this, so I am going to have to play drums and sing this song, simultaneously.
I've been watching this guys videos for years. My son that was killed 13 years ago showed me this guy. I watch him all the time over the years as it makes me remember better times while watching this with him. Thank you to astrotama......
You're welcome. All over the years, I have received many touching stories from all over the world related to my videos. This is one of them. I'm just glad that these modest efforts are helping you with your loss. Rush music has often the effect of getting people closer together (because I believe they were themselves a very close group of folks). So, my thanks go to you, and all the best.
@@Astrotama Your phrasing and timekeeping are really good, and it's clear you go to a lot of trouble and expense to research and acquire top-notch hardware. Of course any artifact from the early days is going to document how far recording for TH-cam has come. Totally deserving of a new upload, I'm going to subscribe so I'll know when it happens!
You give honor to Neil, I've watched alot of your videos and I've never seen anyone cover him note for note but you. you deserve a standing ovation every time.cheers brother.
I love to watch you play. I am a truck driver. Because of your videos, I play on my steering wheel to the best reinacturment to what you play. Thank you for your videos. Especially "New World Man".
🤘Where been all my life 🤘, I only have limited mobile data but it's worth it to watch and listen to you assassinate those drum parts. Keep on rock'n bro.....
I like your Rush Performances, and how you say how you aren't totally happy with some of your performances. This shows ow dedicated you are about perfecting your performances and skills. Keep up the good work!
This just showed up on my feed again. I’ve seen it many times but had to watch again. You hit every movement, crash and accent note perfectly. I know every note in my head and have attempted countless times, but I could never make my hands and feet move that quickly. It’s a gift. You should be proud sir.
I am a drummer myself and after looking at other crappy vids on here you are a light amongst the darkness of no talented hacks....thank you and keep up the great drumming
Really fun to watch. Great job! Weird watching something like this that is the better part of decade old. Always makes me wonder what people are up to today.

Brother, this is excellent work. Like the way you dig your head to one side and then instantly move seamlessly to the next phrase. A joy to watch. Keep it up.
Very well done. I can see you have played this so much it seems effortless. Showmanship would be the icing on an already great cover. You are awesome I'm inspired.
I like your humility and and your imitation of Peart’s talents are the sheerest form of flattery! Keep the videos come’n my friend! I just joined your channel. ✌🏾
I come back and watch a few of your videos every now and then. Your awesome man thanks for these. Neil was a legend, I hope your doing well and maybe just maybe we`ll see a new video from you some day.
truly dedicated to the craft of Neil. you are blessed. a god of note for note. I hope you perform on a daily gig/ you are too talented to stay at home.
It's nice when you find someone on TH-cam who actually sounds good when they play something. :) I agree with charlessndanville: If Rush ever needs a backup...they should totally call you!!
I will personally beat the 10 people who didn't like this video until their music sense returns. You are spot on and a joy to watch. Thanks for sharing your talents with us who can only dream of being as talented as you. Peace.
Bah, no need for bashing. I have no issue at all with people voting down these videos, whatever their reason. Many miss the idea that I do that as a tribute to Neil Peart, not to show off myself as a drummer. Can't pleased everybody! ;)
If you don't like the music that is one thing. But you don't down vote sunshine because of musical taste. Your skill and mastery of the drums is not up for debate, the proof is in the video. Keep on rocking my friend and keep sharing your talents!
@seanbalz I do spend quite a bit of time trying to tune the drums according to the song I play on the videos. I don't always succeed - Neil's drums sound very different across the years - but I try.
Only played the drums in a garage band during the teenage years, so I'm no expert. However, I thought it was pretty damn good. Best of all, I was smiling the whole time. Very entertaining, along with the others of yours I've seen. Thx man!
Oh yeah I forgot to tell you I like how comfortable you are on your kit especially when you hit your cymbals it's nice to watch somebody play so fluidly you know exactly where they are you don't have to look
Love it!! Absolutely love it!! You fantastic haha! I'm laughing cause I've never seen anything like it!!! You kill it on that ride symbol!!!! Brilliant!
Dude, you nailed a very difficult drum part written by arguably the greatest rock drummer of all-time. That was amazing. You are a VERY talented drummer (with a great taste in music). Keep up the good work!
Thanks a bunch!
I agree is very good but this song is actually one of the easiest Rush songs to play in my opinion (I play drums too btw)

Thank you!

Well done. You nailed all the little things as well as the big things. I'll be using this video as the benchmark for my Limelight drum cover.
Brother, this is excellent work. Like the way you dig your head to one side and then instantly move seamlessly to the next phrase. A joy to watch. Keep it up.
Simply put........ You rock my man. My favorite song ever and you nailed it. So smooth and clean. Geez! Bravo!
