A year ago since Neil Peart died

 

Well it has been a year since Neil Peart passed away.  Tbh, I never got heavily into Rush and didn't check  out more of their music after they retired from music.  However, it's still a shame that Peart died.  I don't have much to say on this, unfortunately.  He shared a birthday with my father, so automatically Peart was an awesome guy and I would have gotten along with him if I ever met him.  I did post about Peart's unfortunate death a year ago.  Here it is, if you wanna read it: R.I.P. Neil Peart.   Of course, expect a one year anniversary post on Kobe Bryant and his daughter GiGi Bryant.

R.I.P. Sean Reinert

Sean Reinert has died at the age of 48.  You may read it more here if you want.  I am shocked and saddened by this.  It's a highly unexpected death.  Interestingly, I share a birthday with him.  We have lost two prog rock/metal drummers this month.  For those who don't know, he was the drummer of progressive death metal/rock band Cynic and he was on Death's Human album.

You will be missed by many.  My condolences to family, friends, fans and anyone else affected by this.
