I remember seeing Motorhead t-shirts at school. Mostly worn by people I didn't speak to. Sometime later I had my metal awakening and enjoyed MTV's Headbanger's Ball. It was there that I first heard Lemmy's gravelly voice.
We are Motorhead. We play rock n roll!
I don't pretend to be the band's biggest fan but I do enjoy them very much. I almost lost my hearing at the show. The sound was perfect but cranked up l-o-u-d. Lemmy's 65 now and I wonder if he can still hear.
It was everything you'd expect. Loud, packed tight, leather everywhere, slutty women, mosh pit, crowd surfing and smoking drum solo. It wasn't really smoke but looked cool.
To make the night even better, Clutch was the opener. I love these guys. They are a great complement to Motorhead. Heavy, loud and a bit of humor thrown in. The ringing in my ears and waking up late for work was all worth it.
You may have noticed the pictures are better. I was able to sneak in with my new camera. No more crappy cell phone shots. Like this one...
Now who's ready to
Rock Out With Your Cock Out?
