Paul Rudd<\/a> and Jason Segel<\/a> \u2014 who portrayed perhaps cinema\u2019s biggest Rush<\/a> fans in I Love You, Man \u2014 <\/em>both remembered drummer Neil Peart<\/a> in loving statements to Rolling Stone<\/em>. Peart, along with his Rush bandmates Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson, appeared in the 2009 comedy, as well as a promotional short for the film.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m so sad to hear about Neil Peart\u2019s passing,\u201d Segel tells Rolling Stone<\/em>. \u201cDrumming to \u2018The Spirit of Radio\u2019 was one of my happiest moments. Getting to know Neil even the tiniest bit, and gush with Rudd about our love for Rush, will be something I remember forever. He was an amazing talent and a good man. We will miss you Neil.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
