I'm fairly pleased that all of us, upon hearing the news of Peart's passing, primarily thought of how hard Doc was gonna take it.
Well Canada as a whole and Doc in particular. They were like Canada's band

I see I was wise not to click on this thread. Boo and hiss to you and your character assassinations.

Yes, but I don't recall the details.

Copy and pasted from few years back...

I remember when I was about 11 and used to go to see every Heavy Rock band that ever came to the Newcastle City Hall. The Brit magazine Kerrang was hyping up this band from Canada called April Wine as the future of Spandexery and they even had a song called "I Like To Rock." How could I fail I ask you? Well.... they didn't rock and the drummer had a heart attack during the encore. They wheeled him out on a stretcher with an oxygen mask on his face.

Canada, you fucking suck

I can't rebut this. April Wine was really fucking lame.
