I have seen during their last two tours, fantastic shows, have both dvd's as well. Neil is one of the two best drummers I have ever seen, the other being Golden Earring's Cesar Z.
RUSH on INHD...
I've been what can best be described as a "peripheral" RUSH fan over the years. I only own their double "Best Of" CD, but have always enjoyed their music and appreciated their considerable talent. Recently INHD broadcast RUSH's 30 Anniversary tour from a performance in Frankfurt Germany.
What really stood out for me was how tight these guys were as muscians. If one were to close their eyes, you'd swear they were 25. It was very obvious that Neil, Alex and Getty have never stopped practicing their instruments, because they absolutely shredded. There was no mucking about either as they got on stage and played one great tune after another.
I've always bowed down before Stewart Copeland as the king of rock drummers, but Neil Pert sure impressed the heck out of me with that performance. This guy was non-stop for 2 hours and never broke a sweat or changed expressions on his face. He completely kicked hiney on the drums. I thought Danny Carey was good. Danny should be lucky to lick the boots of Neil Pert.
If you have HD and they replay this show, you owe it to yourself to check it out. One whale of a performance from three guys who are serious about music.
