Nah, it'd impress me if you admitted you were wrong for once in your entire worthless life.

Okay so Carey is overated because he doesn't play the style of drumming that impresses you most? It doesn't make him overated in the overall scheme of things because he is still diverse, original, and definitely more then capable.

To put this into context, Space Prog impresses me, it floats my boat, I don't call the Rolling Stones overated because they don't do Space Prog. The Rolling Stones are rated highly because of OTHER attributes. Danny Carey may not impress you personally but he is far better overall then 99% of the other drummers in the world today.

If you dont think Careys playing is complex, you're not very bright, or well educated in theory.

Hes one of the most technicaly capable drummers out there.

He is a very good drummer actualy, listen to his early Genesis stuff, some good stuff there.

If only he stuck to drumming and didnt turn one of the best prog bands of the 70s into a Lionel Ritchie lite pop group.

No, but hes capable enough to play with Geddy and Alex if Neil called in sick.

Do you think that there is anyone else in classic rock that is as technically skilled as Neil Peart?

I dont really think Peart is THE most skilled drummer in rock, come to think about it Bill Bruford (King Crimson, Yes) probably is better, more experienced and hes showed himself to be very capable in many different styles (from prog to jazz)...Steve Gadd (Steely Dan) is also very skilled, Terry Bozzio (Frank Zappa) and Vinnie Colaiuta (Everyone, pretty much) are others, all of whom could take on Peart...And Carl Palmer (ELP) and Simon Phillips (Toto) come close, younger players like Danny Carey (Tool), Mike Portnoy (Dream Theater) and Tim Alexande
(Primus)...If we include all genres then there are many jazz drummers who destory Peart...Buddy Rich (Solo), Billy Cobham (Miles Davis, Mahavishnu Orchestra), Max Roach (Charlie Parker, many others) and Dave Weckl (Dave Weckl Band) among them.
