They have finally selected the artist for the Neil Peart Memorial at Lakeside Park in his hometown of St, Catherines, On.





Quote:

One sculpture, standing about 12 feet tall, will feature Peart as a young artist and poet circa the 1970s, holding a book and drumsticks, surrounded by sculptural elements bridging his entry to the band. The second will feature Peart in his later years, holding a small piece of his drum kit and offering his drumsticks to visitors.

My guess is he would not have wanted this. Which means he will be upset wherever he is. Which means we will get haunted statues! Neil is still here!

Everything else aside, those are absolutely incredible sculptures. Wow.

This is kind of cool:

"Sabian Cymbals will provide a few of Peart's old and damaged cymbals to be melted down and incorporated into the monument's features."

I'm assuming this is the same Lakeside Park that inspired the song? Yep, just checked.

Yeah, he would be thoroughly embarrassed. That said, these are both great.
