You can either love or hate rock stars, but you can’t deny their ability to make great songs and albums that are being listened to today. Pretty much any rock star is a person that’s larger than life. They’re known for their extravagance which is why some of them have pretty unusual hobbies. Here are some rock stars that have such hobbies.

Lemmy Kilmister
Lemmy is a name that’s well-known in rock and roll. His gritty vocals are unforgettable and have an iconic status. He’s known as the bassist and vocalist of Motorhead. But he’s also a rock star that had some interesting hobbies. He was an avid gamer and would spend much of his time enjoying all kinds of games on his Play Station.
In addition to that, Lemmy liked playing poker, video poker in particular. He would visit the Rainbow Bar and Grill in LA and play for a very long time. What he would have also enjoyed is the many variants of poker available online. Thanks to sites like Casimba Casino UK poker fans from all over the world can enjoy the many poker variants and some other games like blackjack, roulette, and some slots as well. When visiting such sites what’s paramount is to enjoy them responsibly.

Eric Clapton
This is another rock star that’s famous for many of his hit songs like Layla, After Midnight, Change the World, and more. When he’s not touring he likes to relax with an unusual hobby for such a person. In other words, Eric Clapton likes to fish in his free time. He’s a dedicated fisherman and he even has a fishing rod that’s named after him. It’s called the Slowhand Special.

Rivers Cuomo
He’s known as the lead vocalist in Weezer, a band that has produced lots of hit singles throughout the years. But what he likes to do in his free time is unlike any other rock star’s hobby. Rivers likes to knit especially before he goes to bed. It’s a relaxing hobby that takes his mind off things.
Another ardent knitter is Keely Deal from The Breeders. She started knitting to battle her drug addiction. So far, her hobby has evolved into a business that focuses on selling handbags designed by her. Talk about turning your life around.

Maynard James Keenan
The lead singer of Tool is a jack of all trades. He can act and he’s known for writing most of the songs in Tool. Also, he likes to practice BJJ in his free time under the wing of Rickson Gracie. But that’s understandable since he needs to stay in shape. One of the hobbies that stands out is his love for winemaking. That’s right, Maynard has his own winery in Arizona and is called Merkin Vineyards. It produces chardonnay which has won lots of awards.

Conclusion
As mentioned before, rock stars are known for leading shocking lifestyles. So, it shouldn’t come as a surprise when they choose hobbies that are the polar opposite of their way of life. In short, rock stars will never cease to amaze us.
