Rush drummer getting limited edition signature drum kit

Rush drummer Neil Peart will be honored this fall with a limited-edition signature drum kit. Drum Workshop (DW) will produce a replica of the kit Peart used in 2004 on the band's R30 world tour, which marked their 30th anniversary. Only 30 of the drum sets will be made, and they'll carry a retail list price of $30,000. The special DW kits will only be sold through Guitar Center, and a representative for the manufacturer told us that it was too early to know which Guitar Center locations will sell the Peart set.

The members of Rush will reconvene next month to continue working on their new studio album, for which they've already laid down about eight songs. There's no word on when it might be finished.
