I knew Tracey would show up...there is some resemblance between the keeper and Sox.

Great shot of Neil's drum kit Sox, I know some drummers can get plenty of sound from minimal kit, but for Rush's music I am sure he needs every piece of his gear.

Re: The Official Rush Thread

I don't know the technical terms in drumming LG but at Sheffield Neil seemed to use every pot and pan in front, behind and at the side, incredible really.
I know what you mean though like Charlie Watts gets great sounds and patterns from a basic kit but the Rush vibe calls for a different approach. However I would bet Neil could get something going on three empty beer tins.

I'm betting he could get the same sound by playing his teeth.

Oh and here is the cover for the upcoming documentary by Sam Dunn (Metal A Headbanger's Journey and Iron Maiden Flight 666)

At least I hope this will be the cover that sticks cause it's awesome!

Re: The Official Rush Thread

Sam Dunn's work is excellent, his documentaries have been first class and I learned a lot about metal in general. I will definitely check out his documentary on Rush when it comes out.
