Motörhead play their biggest ever Irish headliner.

The band planning on invading The Point on the 31st where they're sure to prove they haven't slowed down with age.

Despite – or perhaps because – of his superhuman ingestion of chemicals, Lemmy has managed to do it louder, faster and more beligerantly than anyone else for a staggering 31 years.

Along the way he’s attracted such A-List admirers as Ozzy Osbourne, Johnny Depp and Dave Grohl who’s invited Motorhead to open for the Foos in June when they play London’s Hyde Park.

Diehards will also be interested in the inaugural Nantymoel Motörhead Festival, which takes place in Wales from June 2 and 4 and includes a male voice choir recital of ‘Ace Of Spades’.

Tickets priced €49.25 are on sale now

Saw them when I was in Hamburg in October. Great show. Who would have thought that someone so old and intoxicated could rock so much?

i'd love to go but i think 50euro is too rich for my blood for a point gig.

Didn't they headline something in the RDS a few years ago?

yeah, they headlined Extremefest a few years back, but it was poorly attended and very badly organised........
and of course they've played outdoors here before too in Dalymount in 1983.....supporting Sabbath......don't know how many were at it.......

Ah yes Dalymount. A great day but Motorhead were terrible. They were boo'ed off the stage. Lemmy threw the mic stand into the crowd and the crowd threw it back.
