On this day back in 1952, our favorite drummer - Neil Ellwood Peart - was born in Hamilton, Ontario. Neil is the old man of Rush and turns 62 today; Geddy and Alex both recently turned 61. I should also mention that this past Tuesday, September 9th, Neil and his wife Carrie Nuttall celebrated their 14th wedding anniversary. Happy birthday Pratt, and happy anniversary Neil and Carrie!
