Shocked and saddened to say the least. Saw him with Rush back in 2009. Superb.

He was a phenomenal lyricist too. He will be sorely missed.

That's sad. I hadn't heard. He was a great drummer. Thanks for posting.

"I’m gutted and crying quite a lot now "

It's too soon, he was only 67. The post on the fan page says he passed on Tuesday, he'd been battling brain cancer for three and a half years. I can't imagine how Geddy and Alex are feeling. A very, very sad day

You're quite correct, I quote his lyrics often and always will

Absolutely awful news . One of the best drummers of all time. He had that sound that was so identifiable. His lyrics too, absolutely amazing.

Huge talent, Huge Loss

He was, very much so. Moonie was Neil's hero, when he auditioned for Geddy and Alex they liked the fact he played like him.

When the dragons grow too mighty

To slay with pen or sword

I grow weary of the battle

And the storm I walk toward

When all around is madness

And there's no safe port in view

I long to turn my path homeward

To stop a while with you

When life becomes as barren

And as cold as winter skies

There's a beacon in the darkness

In a distant pair of eyes

In vain to search for honor

In vain to search for truth

But these things can still be given

Your love has shown me proof

"No idea who that is "

He was the drummer in a band called Rush. Is there a reason you didn't just ignore the thread if you don't know who he is? Cos if you'd posted a thread about someone who meant a lot to you and a lot of other people and I didn't know who they were then I'd have just left it alone.

Look. I started this thread because someone very important to me died this week. Now you've told us all you have no idea who he is, we're grateful cos obviously you're unbelievably important to everyone here. We get it. You don't care. Now can you please just leave us alone.
