RIP Lemmy
 

Checked.

Appears legit.

His twitter account is confirming it.

RIP

Wow - 3 threads started? I'll post on the first one by time stamp...

This is sad. It affects us in a strange way. All our musicians are dying away. He had some rough miles on him and while it is sad, 70 is a hell of an age with that lifestyle, compared to many many others who perished much earlier.

I can't think of anything more to say.

They just had his 70th BD party here in LA very recently. I didn't go but saw a lot of posts on FB from people who did. Oh well, RIP buddy.

Wow, sorry to hear about that. I saw them during High school at the Palladium in Hollywierd with Korkus opening. I can't believe he's 70. I remember seeing him hanging around Sunset Strip a few years ago.

Last time I was in LA I stopped at the Rainbow for a drink. He was on tour. Rumor was he lived just up the hill from the bar. Staff was friendly and the vodka was good. :)

I bought him a drink at The Rainbow about three yrs. ago. A true English gentleman.

Oh no!

Early reports are it was an aggressive cancer.

He passed at home playing that video poker game sitting on the bar in your pic..

Allegedly The Rainbow had sent it over to his apartment.

He was looking pretty rough at recent appearances and, well, let's face it - he wasn't a role model for good, clean living. He packed a lot into 70 yrs, that's for sure. I mean, how do you get any more street cred than starting out as a roadie for Jimi Hendrix?

Let's NOT have a moment of silence in honor of Lemmy, while he's on his way to the next gig.

Rest in peace.http://forums.pelicanparts.com/suppo...s/beerchug.gif

I met him before a gig at the Living Room in RI back in the mid 80's just when Fast Eddy left. He was hanging out in the front bar drinking a Bud and playing pinball between the sound check and going on stage. He was an ugly mfer up close but just a regular guy.

My ears were ringing for three days after that show....

Sad. He hasn't looked or sounded good in a while but im still shocked. RIP

That would be the 1st thing I asked.
