RIP Lemmy of Motorhead

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-35193376

Farewell to a rock legend.

 

I've just heard this on the news. A larger than life character who kicked the ass out of life.............


RIP

 

Never liked Motorhead, but saw him playing in Hawkwind at Windsor Festival many (or perhaps that should be many, many?) years ago before he left them.

 

Was going to take my son to watch them at Manchester Apollo in January

 

As an ex-'headbanger', I recall some mighty fine times back in my youth with the likes of Silver Machine, Bomber and Ace of Spades going at full volume (and I still have the tinnitus to prove it).

All I can say is, so long Lemmy and thanks for all the memories.

 

I read that the band have asked that fans honour him by having a drink while listening to Motorhead. I don't normally go in for all the celebrity stuff, but I think I can honour that request.

 

in one of our newspapers

"A petition has been launched to put the name of the late Motörhead lead singer Lemmy Kilmister onto one of the four newly discovered metal elements.

The petition urges The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry to call one of the elements “Lemmium.”

 

Lemmy in a milk commercial, as great as it sounds.

 

He died a day before my birthday and i played his music and danced all the way through till midnight on my birthday. First Phil then Scott then Lemmy. Terrible

 

And now Dave:(
