In honor of the great Neil Peart, I put together a lesson pack that is based on the intro to Rush's epic song, YYZ, from their album Moving Pictures. The rhythm to the intro is morse code for the Toronto Airport.

Please pardon the unexpected emotional response to the untimely passing of Neil on January 7, 2020. He was an inspiration to countless drummers from around the world. Regardless of genre, all drummers knew, loved, and respected Neil. He part on Tom Sawyer was the very first song I learned on drums and he was without a doubt the biggest inspiration and reason for me becoming a professional musician.
