A video shared by Drumeo shows Nic Collins, son of Genesis drummer Phil Collins, performing a Rush drum cover. This performance has sparked reunion speculation among fans.
The video displayed the young drummer performing Rush’s “2112.” Drumeo titled the video “Nic Collins Learns Impossible Neil Peart Drum Part,” which prompted enthusiastic responses from fans.
Rush fans suggested Collins as a potential drummer for the band.
“Call Geddy and Alex. Tell them to get Rush back on the road. We found their new drummer. No one can replace The Professor. But Nic did an awesome job,” one fan commented.
Fans expressed their support for a possible collaboration.
“Now let’s talk uniting Nic with Rush and a WW Tour 2026! He is obviously up to the challenge and would represent Neil Peart very well,” another fan wrote.
Another enthusiastic supporter added:
“If Alex and Geddy want to tour again, Nic would be the perfect guy to honor Neil. Prog roots with his dad’s influence and his youth to study and take on The Professor’s challenging rhythms!”
The video has also captured significant attention from the Rush fanbase. No official plans have been announced yet. The young drummer’s performance of “2112” coincides with his rising career in the music industry.
