Gibson.com posted their list of The Top 10 Unusual Rock Star Hobbies to their website earlier today. Coming in at number 7 is Geddy Lee's hobby of collecting baseball memorabilia:

In the Rush: Beyond the Lighted Stage documentary, bass player/vocalist Geddy Lee explains how his love of baseball grew as a way of letting off steam with something not related to music. He found himself watching a lot of baseball in hotel rooms between gigs, and from there he began to amass an impressive collection of baseball memorabilia. In 2008, he donated his collection of almost 200 autographed Negro League baseballs to the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum in Kansas City. Lee also is an avid wine collector.
