If they were walking toward you on the street, you would cross the street.

The show usually starts around seven
We go on stage at nine
Get on the bus at eleven
Sippin' a drink and feelin' fine

Great drinking game: watch the Paradise City video and you have to drink every time someone nods at the camera

I was at that gig, my first festival experience. G'N'R were at the bottom of the bill, Appetite For Destruction had just been released. Crowd went nuts for them, and a couple of kids died in the crush down the front. Pissed it down all day, absolute mud bath.

Axel rose looks like that kid on my block who always asks to bum a smoke, then when i tell him i dont smoke, he promptly tells me to go fuck myself. Seems like a nice kid.

I heard that Lemmy got his name from Jimi Hendrix when they were at a casino and Lemmy would keep going up to Jimi goin "Lemme get $5".

Not to diminish their success and accomplishments, but Duff and Axl look a bit like imposters next to the authentic OG.

Lemmy reminds me of Champ from the office if he had a cooler older brother.

To me, that video always exemplified rock 'n roll - giant stadium, random articles of clothing on the stage, clips from 'life on the road', bouncers tackling people, etc

Lemmy is dead and looks better than Axl right now. Fat loser looks like he ate Meatloaf.

Definitely one of the quintessential heavy metal "tour montage" videos. Pretty much every hair band back then did one. Also had to have a ballad at some point. Def Leppard pour some sugar on me and motley Crue Wild Side are a couple of other awesome "tour montage" gems.

Just like old school Sabbath, Zeppelin or Lemmy, I need to drop it down low, and make it heavy, I LIKE IT HEAVY!

I was there that year!

I still have the t-shirt (though it seems to have, erm, shrunk since then).

That was the tragic year that 2 people were killed in a crowd crush.

Lemmy's ethic was absolutely and completely something else.

He'd say "I'm a public figure. If I'm in public, I'm at work." and never refuse an autograph or a photo.

Yeah I mean I just heard this from a friend and posted it. I should hope no one takes me as a legitimate source. Glad to hear the real story. So was he involved with Jimi at all? I heard he was a roadie or something for him.

Lemmy’s leather crotch: is it part of his pants or part of his belt?
