So many dead people....

[Anderson]

Kobe Bryant and 4 others.



Calabasas, CA. Looks like helicopter tour gone wrong.

Not the biggest Rush fan, but Neil was the fucking GOAT.

My all time favorite drummer from my all time favorite band. Jen's right - I'm gutted by this.

Seems he passed on Tuesday and we're just finding out today. After the tragedy he went through years back with his first daughter and wife, the poor guy was finally living the life he wanted with his second wife and kid and it just wasn't long enough. I feel awful for them, for Geddy and Alex, and Neil's parents.

His lyrics meant a lot to me, Rush's music formed the bulk of the soundtrack to my life, and talent like his comes along once in a lifetime.

RIP, Professor, and thanks from this real life Analog Kid.

Tim and I are both crushed, too!

We're both Rush fans (him moreso than me). However, I LOVED Neil's drumming and the depth of the lyrics he wrote for the band.

I will miss you, Professor!

[Martin]

Fuck

[Matt]

Neil Peart of Rush, 67. Brain cancer.

I'm absolutely crushed right now.

[B_Metal]

Sucks.

[Captain Russ]

Goddammit

No more tutti fuckin frutti.

[Abraham Smashington]

Yep. Bummer. Met him a few times. Always a class act.

[Timothy225]

Sid Haig, 80. Fucking shame - thought he was on the mend. Got to meet him at a couple of shows, and was one of the nicest guys ever.

RIP, sir.

[Matt]

That really sucks. So many great songs from him. Those first two Cars albums are amazing.

[Timothy225]

Ric Ocasek from the Cars. Totally did not see that coming at all.

RIP Blind Fury.

Because of this on FB I thought the blind rapper died. So I was sad twice.

[Matt]

Gutted on Hauer.

[Abraham Smashington]

RIP Blind Fury.
