Probably Neil Peart. But it's not like I actively think about anyone I don't personally know as a "favorite" person. But if I had to pic a celebrity it would be him. Or Paul McCartney.

The thing that always impressed me with Paul is he seems to genuinely enjoy entertaining people. You hear about bands complaining that they hate playing certain songs, out right refusing to play their hits, or phoning in their concerts. But not Paul. I saw him a few years ago and he put on a 3 hour nonstop show. His band took breaks but he just kept going. I can't even begin to guess the number of times he's played Hey Jude, but every time I've seen him play it he seems to be genuinely enjoying himself.
