RIP Lemmy. Killed By Death.

[Scott_M]

Just saw this from there too :

 

And there are the stories from those who have encountered him: the member of the British rock band with an equal enthusiasm for chemicals who spent an afternoon nose-deep in powders with him at the Rainbow Bar & Grill in LA, playing Tetris – “I love it when I’ve been playing for hours … that’s when the swastikas start appearing,” Lemmy is reputed to have said.

 

 

Hahah!

I went to the Rainbow when I was in LA. I was telling the Mrs it was meant to be his local & the bar maid over heard us & said even though he does go in there, it's very, very occasional & would hardly class it as a local.

a day of solid Motorhead and i'm carrying on for good time yet

[Ezekiel 25:17]

Ive never heard of him, Im man enough to admit this.

Me neither. I actually thought the thread was about the Newswipe version when I first saw it. Even managed to get that wrong as his name's Limmy.

Not my sort of music especially, but I remember with fondness the first time I heard them, like others, on The Young Ones. Lots of volume, energy, and a certain raucous anarchy was a perfect fit for the programme. I remember talking about it in school the next day.

 

Nice one, Rev.

In my local of 15 years tonight and I can honestly say I never heard Ace of spades once in all those years.

 

Five fucking times tonight.

 

Hahaha.

I'm out of green.

Can someone do the honours on my behalf for Mick on this one please?  (I'll forget when I've got the start of a 2-day hangover tomorrow)

again, on the ball....and what a final pay-off line

[Carvalho Diablo]

Always hoped that Motorhead would represent Britain in the Eurovision Song Contest.

 

You know how all of these Eastern European / Iron Curtain types just love their heavy metal, Motorhead would have brought the bacon home.

 

"Hello, we are Motorhead and we play rock n' roll..."

 

BOOM

[thegreatelephant]

he liked Dancing Queen - think he was serious

[Mook]

Dancing Queen is a great record.

[thegreatelephant]

[thegreatelephant]

 

another perfect day getting a pasting - what an album with Robbo in harness

[Joe Strummer]

He sounds fucked on their last live recording, guess he was doing well just to be on stage playing.

 

He loved the Beatles too.
