Here's a story from Haggerty regarding a car collector who also built models and now collects them.

Neil Peart from RUSH.

Very cool story, Adam. Thanks for sharing.

Now how cool is that? And he used to build while on the road. Not what you expect from a rock musician. I like his 1:1's too.

I posted a topic about him building models a while back. Weird coincidence huh?

Rush is my favorite band, this just makes them that much more epic to me

Great story. Thanks for sharing.

This doesn't surprise me. He's a car guy and an artist. Being a modeler is result of that.

And man, if puts even half the dedication into his models as he does his drumming............wow.

Often I find those who are into music either just to listen to or to play an instrument build models. Rod Stewart is an avid model railroader and takes his projects with him on the road. He often rents additional space in the hotel he is staying at to work on his project. Bruce Dickenson of Iron Maiden is also a model railroader. I am sure there are many others who build.

Cool! Their music is impossible to listen to, but cool to see others have the disease.
