    Saw them in 1982 on their Iron Fist tour with the classic line up and again on my eighteenth birthday.
    Listened to Hammersmith and Ace of Spades last week, timeless.

    Thanks to this thread, I've spent the last 3 hours watching motorhead live vids on YouTube.

    I can't thank you enough.

    Saw motorhead at glastonbury on the box last night -poor Lemmy looks pretty fcuked -good performance even though he was obviously in poor health they even had to do a drum solo during doctor rock.

    hope he gets well I doubt it though he looks very bad and thin I know he had lots of health problems recently.

    legend

    Saw them in the Ambassador a few years ago and specifically remember my ears ringing for several days after. It was an awesome show.

    Would love for them to come back on their next tour.

    Bump.

    Genuinely heartbroken to hear of and see Lemmy having to end another performance on the current tour.

    The man has always seemed pretty immortal and indestructible but I think Father Time is finally starting to win :(

    I've seen Motorhead live twice and there was a definite difference between their performance in 2008 and in 2014. I fear the end of their lives shows may not be too far away.

    That said, Bad Magic is an absolute belter of an album and proves that himself and the lads can still go in the studio.

    I wouldn't hold it against Lemmy if he decided to call it a day due to his ongoing health problems, the man has done & seen it all over 40 brilliant years, he has nothing left to prove..

    yeah, call it a day on the live front apart from maybe a few gigs a year, that still gives him the chance of fulfilling is wish of dying onstage

    He could call it a day in terms of live performances, but still continue to release albums with Motorhead, special occasion gigs every now and then..

    LOVING the new album, stand out track by a mile is 'Till the End'

    Hope that track doesn't end up having a deeper meaning :(:(

    Check out Lemmy on latest WTF with Marc Maron (podcast). I think he sounds banjaxed and its no wonder we're hearing about gigs getting cancelled, he's still very sharp though.

    Till The End sounds like Ride On, never knew Lemmy was a fan of Christy Moore.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,449 ✭✭✭blastman


    My copy of the new album arrived yesterday, and I have to say it's an example of how albums should be released these days. I ordered the vinyl and includes a copy of the CD AND a download card. That should be the standard (for vinyl releases) these days.

    It's also on lovely white vinyl! Niiiiiice....

    So they're back gigging, quite odd that it's the Black Magic tour and they're not playing any new songs

    New album is album of the year for me so far, a cracking effort from lemmy and the lads. Fair ****s to them for still banging out crackers like this at this stage of their career.
