Rush Fans - Animated Neil Peart!!

I once had an idea of trying to do the samething with Led Zep.

Sweet! I remember as a kid spending an entire summer learning how to play every rush song up to Signals on guitar. I actually went to school for audio engineering but after a few years doing it for a living, I ended up in web development.
