Freaks and Geeks - Neil Peart sucks

From Smooching and Mooching.

People need to know that Joe Flaherty (the dad) did the intro for "The Weapon" in the Grace Under Pressure Tour (as Count Floyd). This scene is an inside joke, so comments such as "the writers of the show don't know what they're talking about" or "buddy rich didn't take any lessons!" or "neil peart does not suck" or "he pronounced Peart wrong!" are pretty redundant. The writers know this and every "mistake" and comment made in the video is done on purpose.

Plus, everyone knows the best drummer of all time is Michael Shrieve!!!

And you know what happened to Buddy Rich? He DIED.

[MrPrimetime76]

Wasn't the irony that Buddy Rich was big influence on Neil Peart?

[Bababanesa]

This clip always brings me tears of joy :)

[SuperChuck3]

Also the irony is Buddy never took lessons!

[Denton Williams]

and the fact that he was still alive when this episode took place

Gene Krupa was awesome.

That's because it is him...

[garrettmillerdrums]

His heart couldn't keep up the tempo his hands were making.

[CullaDiGiuda]

That's funny because you just mentioned Neil Peart in the same sentence as Buddy Rich.

[Scarecrow6459]

I think you can, but they are different styles really. I hold fasty that buddy is qoute unqoute "better", but Neil could do things that Buddy couldn't (for that matter wouldn't want to anyhow :P) do. Love both of them, and I think both of them wouldn't care about the whole thing anyways.

[John79Paul]

That's because he is...the guy from I love you man. Getting some Rush in wherever he goes.
