I do not disrespect his big drum kit, I only say ij is not necessary at all, only for his solo. Or do you disagree there?
But I give up; you deliberately twist my words. I can only repeat it: Peart is an exceellent drummer, and so are many others. Period. He is no better or worse than them Anytrhing else is personal taste. My personal taste is that I find his style boring because he never does the unexpected, but that is merely my pesonal taste. Period again.

Actually as Tony quoted you clearly disrespected it. You called it nothing but frills. That's not a compliment.
I'm not twisting your words. You're twisting mine actually while claiming I don't read your posts. Every time a point is made you simply ignore it and switch direction.
Thanks for the punctuation clarification by the way.
PEART 4 LIFE!!!!!!!!! |
Nonsense. Where is the disrespect there?
You twist my words. Did I or did I not acknowledge Peart's skills? So where is your problem? Can you really not sand it there are many other drummners who are equally skilled?
|
You show nothing but contempt for him but even more so for fans of him. Why you should hate the fans so much is beyond me. |
Nonsense. If acknowlidguing his skills is showing contempt for him then you have your head stuck up your bum.
|
I think your behaviour across two threads now and many times in the past about this one drummer speaks for itself. I know where my head is. I doubt you use yours.

You may or may not like Neil's drumming style, that's a matter of taste and I can agree that there are many other great drummers who may be underrated compared to him, but I do not agree that his huge drumkit is only for the show and used only in his solos.
Neil makes full use of his drumkit during his songs playing, have you not watched Xanadu, Mistic Rythms and so many other songs? from someone who says that I can only think that he/she has not seen Neil live much.

I really don't understand this whole thread. Friede clearly stated that Peart is a very skilled drummer. she also stated that he is not as skilled as some osome people would want us make to believe, which is exceptionally more skilled rthan anyone else. I personally find it ridiculous that in any drum pooll which contains the names Peart and Bruford those trwo are always miles ahead of any other drummers.. skillwise they aren't, so obviously some other factors must play an important role. what are these factors? maybe we should discuss that instead of throwing insults at each other

Did she come crying to you?
OK, we can argue with you too, no problem.
..and throwing insults? Well, she started it. But I will withdraw my comment if you wish.

can you stop your bickering for a moment, SnowDog? she did not come crying. I think we should not discuss who started the insults; after having read the thread I think the fault lies on both sides and that there are, as usual. misunderstandings. so whay is it that Peart and Bruford always win the drum polls? one reason probably is that Rush are a very popular band on the Americasn continent, and many people simply vote the musician from their favorite band in a musician's poll

I think Friede should write all she thinks about Peart and Peart-fans somewhere and the Admins take the post and make it sticky. So that everyones acknowledges her position before starting a Peart thread and she doesn't have to drop-in every time and reinforce the mentioned opinions.

Well for a start I am not bickering.
I think the fault lies on one side. Your lover Friede. Why do I say it's her fault? because she trolls every thread that has either Neil Peart in it or favourite drummer polls and threads. Everyone here knows her opinion!!! Does she need to ram it down our throats on every occasion?

And she hasn't misunderstood us? This is beyond a joke.

I think I'll observe for a while......I've simply had enough for now. This happens all the time when Peart is mentioned.

are you still flogging a dead horse? I offered a topic for discussion; why not utter your 5 cent's worth on it?

Personally I think Peart is one of the great drummers and he has a wicked sense of humour too. He always plays drums in a little glass booth before each concert and then he is focussed for the show. The documentary Beyond the lightest Stage explains a lot about his passion and he is one of the most dedicated drummers in the business.
