Set of sticks along with Neil Peart's book.
At the heart of the book are note-for-note musical transcriptions of 17 songs that are included on the Taking Center Stage DVD. These transcriptions are exclusive to this book, since they are taken from the performances on the DVD, documenting how Neil currently approaches the songs. Songs include, œTom Sawyer, œYYZ, œThe Spirit of Radio, œFree Will, œSubdivisions, œTime Stand Still, œMarathon, œLa Villa Strangiato, œThe Trees, œCaravan, œBU2B, œFar Cry, and many others.
The book is divided into chapters corresponding to each and every Rush tour from the time Neil joined the band in 1975, up to the present. Each of these chapters contains extensive text discussing the musical approach of the band at the time, the construction of the drum parts, and Neils setup. Accompanying this are exquisitely detailed diagrams of each of Neils drum sets, produced after extensive research into the exact instruments that were used on every tour. Tying everything together are stunning photos taken over the past 30 years and color reproductions of just about every drum company advertisement that has featured Neil during his career.
Includes:
Fifteen chapters devoted to Neils musical approach and equipment on every Rush tour since 1975.
Note-for-note drum transcriptions of 17 songs taken from the Taking Center Stage: A Lifetime of Live Performance DVD, including Rush classics like œTom Sawyer, œYYZ, œThe Spirit of Radio, œFree Will, œSubdivisions, œTime Stand Still, œMarathon, œLa Villa Strangiato, and many others.
Detailed text from both Neil and author Joe Bergamini, explaining his equipment and his approach to the songs. Exclusive photos, some never before published, showing Neil and his drums in vibrant detail. Detailed diagrams and explanations of all of Neils drum sets. Other interesting images, such as Neils Modern Drummer magazine covers and print advertisements from DW, Tama, Sabian, Ludwig, Pro-Mark, and Zildjian.
