Web-exclusive addendum to Neil Peart Modern Drummer interview now online

Mon, Nov 21, 2011@11:25AM | comments removed/disabled

Neil Peart was the feature of a cover story in the December, 2011 issue of Modern Drummer magazine. The issue hit newsstands late last month and a few excerpts were made available online at Cygnus-X1.net. Neil touches on a number of subjects in the interview including how he prepares for a tour, how he deals with the rigors of touring, his approach to composing drum parts and the inspiration behind his recently-released Taking Center Stage instructional video. Earlier today Modern Drummer posted a web-exclusive addendum to the interview where Neil has more to say on his instructional DVD, and also touches on his appearance on the David Letterman Show's Drum Solo Week this past summer and his surprise appearance at KoSA. You can read it at the Modern Drummer website here and check out the Modern Drummer review of Taking Center Stage here. Thanks to rosmakloma for the heads up.
