 Topic: Good News First: Peart To Be A Father At 57
Posted: August 24 2009 at 17:44 |
congrats Neil.....  May she soon pass the likes of Meg White as the greatest female drummer of all time... though didn't Karen Carpenter beat Bonzo once in a drumming poll in the 70's

Very happy for Neil. There's no full moving on from a past like he's had but hopefully this helps.

Losing my child and wife would be such an unimaginable hell, so I really did, and continue to, feel for him. Now I am full of happiness for him. It's great news, and I'm sure that all will be well.

I wish Neil nothing but happiness after all that he's suffered in his life, as Raff said a hell that I can't even begin to contemplate.

One one hand, great news. I'm very happy for him.
On the other, who wants a teenager when you're in your seventies.
Best wishes and good luck, Neil.

Wonderful news, I can't imagine what that man had to go through, it's good to hear that he'll have another chance to be a Dad.

Yes, indeed. It explains the long hiatus between test for echo and vapor trails.

That's really good news for Neil ! I read the account of his daughter and wife's death in the book Ghost Rider, which impressed me very deeply. The man really went through hell...
