Testing my new D6 Kick drum mic....
I think I like it better than the AKG D112, a little more "clicky", but much more transparent! |

| Rush - Natural Science Ray Harber Neil Peart Drums
|
This is the first song I've played my new 30th anniversary Neil Peart DW Edge snare drum with! (and, man do I love it!!) I used a little of my editing skills with this one (hope it's not too cheesy!) Anyway this is a VERY HARD song to play right, but after some practice, I think a got it pretty good (This is from two different takes) Thanks again everyone for continuing to watch my drum covers, and the kind comments! |

| Neil Peart vs Mike Portnoy

The question a lot of you are asking is "Is it right to compare two great artists?"
There are two ways of looking at it; the first way is drummer "A" vs. drummer "B" and asking who is best or who would win a competition?
I believe this is wrong as neither drummer asked to be judged or entered into a competition. This is NOT what I am trying to do. I will say it again; this is not a competition and not what I am trying to do.
The other way of looking at it is one of advanced appreciation. Let me explain what I mean. Take a drummer like Danny Carey; do you enjoy his music on its own without anything to compare it to? Yes, I do. Now take a drummer like Mike Portnoy, can you enjoy his music on its own without any comparison? Yes, I also do.
But if I want to know how much I enjoy either piece or either drummer I need something to compare it against.
Our first natural comparison is with ourselves. "I like Danny Carey, and will pay money to see Danny because he is better than me". Fair statement? I don't see Danny Carey lining up to see my clinics.
Why do most of us appreciate Danny's drummer more then say Larry Mullins Jr's drummer? Because it is further from where we are. A lot of us can play what Larry plays so we think of him as a good or great drummer, but with Danny being so far pasted us we often think of him as extremely superior or a master.
To take an appreciation to a more advanced level you need to compare with another higher standard. There should only be a small variation between your personal appreciation of two players like Danny and Mike, or Vinnie or Buddy.
Who you like might change from day to day and that's fine, today you might like Danny more, tomorrow you're in a mood for Mike
How do you know what Tool song or Elton John song you like best? Compare it to another Tool or Elton song right?
What I am doing is not wrong. I am exercising my rights to free speech and I am offering you an opportunity to join me and share your opinion. There are no winners or losers, only good comments and bad comments. And I can guarantee you that at some point you have made a judgment call on a drummer based on another drummer.
If you don't like it -- Don't comment

R30 "Der Trommler"
______
Neil Ellwood Peart, (born September 12, 1952 in Hagersville, Ontario) is the drummer and lyricist for the progressive rock band Rush.
Peart grew up in Port Dalhousie, Ontario, Canada (now part of St. Catharines) working the occasional odd job. However, his true ambition was to become a professional musician. At the age of thirteen, Peart received his first drumkit and soon began rigorously practicing. During adolescence, he floated from regional band to regional band and eventually dropped out of high school in order to pursue his career as a full-time drummer. After a discouraging stint in England to concentrate on his music, Peart returned home, where he eventually joined local Toronto band Rush in the summer of 1974.
Early in his career, Peart's style of playing was deeply rooted in hard rock where he drew most of his inspiration from drummers such as Keith Moon and John Bonham, players who were at the forefront of the British hard rock scene. As time progressed however, he began to absorb the influence of Jazz and Big Band musicians such as Gene Krupa, and more recently, the late Buddy Rich. Peart is also one of the more recent pupils of jazz instructor, Freddie Gruber. In terms of music, Peart has received many awards (see below) for his recorded performances and is widely regarded for his technical proficiency and stamina. In terms of influence, he is one of the most important drummers in history.[1]
In addition to his profession as a musician, Peart is also a prolific writer, being the author of several published travelogues and evidenced by his position as chief lyricist for Rush. Over the years, Peart has become known for an a personal writing style and a propensity for addressing diverse subject matter including science fiction, fantasy, and philosophy, as well as secular and humanitarian themes. His last name is pronounced "Peert", although many mispronounce it "Pert". |
