I’m 50 and it’s hard to accept that I will never see RUSH birthday two 9th row tickets dead center Power Windows 1986 The Summit....it was the greatest RUSH concert I’d ever seen....Counterparts in 1994 San Diego was second I never look at the set list so I was so shocked when Xanadu came on after Feedback tour was third I loved the old sixties jams! What you do I can only dream about appreciate the gift you were given it’s one in a million! I’m sure you’ve worked your ass off ! I hope to see you in concert one day here in Houston. Mean, mean pride!

Great job again Niko as always! Never heard that song before from really liked Peart to to never or hardly ever play easy stuff....it's usually for the most part complex complicated and has off beat and odd time signatures etc. etc. I'm sure you know what I mean cause you can copy Neil's phenomenal one of kind master drumming you make it look easy Niko! I sure can't play like sure do like your seen and heard others do Rush I do think you're the best I've heard yet to date! It's obvious you put a lot of time, effort and practice into like I've commented drums are tuned to sound just like the actual song by Rush at that time period of the particular down to the cymbals sounding EXACT! That's what makes you stand out from the rest is my opine to say I think you're the best of the best I've heard thus far!

Great cover Niko! Also, do you know a band called A Liquid Landscape ? They're very underrated imo and I thought you would maybe check some of their songs like "Nightingale Express" or "June Fifth", it's quite pleasant to play at the drums and the structure is very rich

Great job! As an observation and not a criticism I noticed you were opening your hi hats on 2 and 4 (1:13 in and 2:38) where Neil plays with them loosely closed while opening them slightly for some accents. Neil is a precision drummer who plays live the same way he does in studio for the most part. It's a nice interpretation though. Very well done!

Fix your overhead camera man. Theres a part in the song that your drumming cant be seen..on your left side.
