I bought Neil Peart's Taking Center Stage a couple years ago. I watched it a couple times, then put it away for a couple years. Lately I've been re-discovering my DVD collection and put this Neil Peart DVD back in rotation. Since then, I've watched it like four or five times in the past couple weeks.
I'm not getting tires of it either. It's like putting in a live DVD and sometimes I just have it as background noise. But I'm really getting absorbed in what he is saying about drumming and his approach to live playing. Like last night, I found myself trying some of the things he is talking about, such as soloing over a transition in the music, rather than just a quick drum fill. It felt really good and I think the band leader even took notice.
Anyway, the whole point to this thread is that I am wondering if you all have a drumming DVD like this that you just watch over and over and over?
