Rush's Neil Peart On Letterman's Drummers Week - 6/9/2011

Yeah, if it were not for Neil Peart, I would not be the person, let alone the drummer, that I am today. I sat and learned a ton of Rush songs, and played along with a lot of rock music. Iron Maiden, Metallica, a lot of others.. But there is no other drummer who is as great an influence to me than this man. I literally drummed to Moving Pictures start to finish hundreds of times. Then I went back to Permanent Waves, 2112, Farewell To Kings, and Hemispheres.

Ask any great drummer today his major influences, and if he doesn't mention Neil Peart, I'll be shocked.

He's the master.

Scared Old Man Seeking Help

A gentleman goes into his doctor's office and is finally allowed to see the doctor. The guy says, "Doc, I'm having trouble with.. well, you know.."

The doctor thoroughly examines him and says, "You'll need to have some work done to bring back your sex drive. I'll get back to you in a few days. Let's run some tests."

The distraught man waits and waits for his test results, and after 2 weeks finally received the call he's been waiting for: Doc Says, "I can do it in a series of operations that will take 30 days and cost $12,000, or I can do it in one operation right away that would cost $30,000. Why don't you go home and discuss it with your wife?"

So the gentleman goes home and has "the talk" with his wife.

The next day the guy comes back into the doctor's office.

The doctor says, "What did you decide?"

He says without any reluctance whatsoever, "We're going to re-do the kitchen!!"
