Motorhead in concert

Post by Old Mother »

Saw them tonight in Chicago. They didn't disappoint.

The show was opened by Valiant Thor. I've never heard of them and didn't get to see them play as I was late to the show. The second act was Clutch. They're kind of a bluesy-metal/hard rock band. I like some of there stuff, but overall I'm not that big of a fan. They played really well though.

Motorhead just fucking killed it though. :rock: :rock: :rock: :rock: :rock: The only downside to this is there were hipster douchebags everywhere. That was the only disappointment.

I can't hear shit now.

Early Clutch is some good shit.

Saw Motorhead in the early 90's and even had a drink with Lemmy.

Amazing they are still alive.

I have seen Motorhead more than any other band and they have never dissapointed.

First time was on a triple bill of Overkill, Motorhead and Slayer around X-mas of 88 and it was the most intense show I have ever been to, complete mass hystaria at its best.

I love how Lemmy starts a show, he never asked us "How ya doing?" and never threatend to "Rock you all!".

He simply comes out and says "We are Motorhead and we are Rock and Roll." and gives the 4 count in German and the sounds of Vahalla fill the air.
God damn fucking right!

I was known at shows in So Flo for my ratty old Orgasmatron shirt I wore at ever show from that night in 88 (Hey Motor- Dude, whats up buddy!) untill it was torn off by some chick (Who I did not know but she blew me after the show) at a Malevolent Creation show in 93.

The last time I saw them was in 97, Lemmy was at the bar while Nashville Pussy was playing and some of the people I was with were coming up to him and asking for autographs. They said "Of all people you should go get one from him." So I did one better, I showed some fucking class, walked up to the bar, ordered 2 Newcastle's, slid one over to him and lifted my glass and said "Cheers mate!" he raised his we took a swig nodded heads at each other and I said "Have a great show Ian." and walked off.

When they played, I was the Khan of the pit and at one point between songs he pointed me out and said " Theres a true Motorhead."

I alos used Jujutsu to stop a guy from fighting me, he swung I enterd did a satnding neck crush, said in his ear "Let's not do this brother." gave him a hug and we proceeded to knock posers on their ass together.

I took my green belt test the next fucking day, I was still jacked up on Motorhead, no drugs or nothing just Motor-tweeked.

Glad you had a great time, you saw Rock and Roll at it's fucking core.

What "Frampton comes alive" is to old asses in their 50s and "Kiss Alive" is to old white trash, "No Sleep to Hammersmith" is to Old school Thrashers.
