Professional Air Drummer @ Rush (Neil Peart = wow)

I had to sit next to this guy ALL NIGHT. He had his own drum kit right in front of him. Short video, but he went on like this for 3 hours. He must have been as tired as Peart was after the show.

And then of course, here's the real deal. Best drummer on the planet right now. Solo went on for 7 minutes or so.

Rush fans take air drumming to new levels. I have never seen such fanatical air drumming outside of a Rush concert. I don't think PJ fans have an equivalent from-stands interaction.

That's the first thing I noticed about the Rush show I witnessed. Air drums, air bass, and of course plenty of air guitar. Even seen alot of people mouthing the words, but at no point in the show was it audible, so I guess I'll add air singing to the list. The only thing I didn't see was air foot controlled synthesizers.


Air instrument virtuosos are lame as hell, except at a Rush concert. The worst offenders I've seen are the people that think they're Maynard at Tool shows.
