"Lemmy's look is something that is probably a little cultivated from back in the '50s, and added to that, some of the shit that he picked up along the way, bikers, punk rock, whatever." "Although, he's been around for a long time." "Maybe some of the punk stuff they got from him."

"If I was to really give it a specific name, I would probably say it's like a Western jack boot, because he likes these boots with a squared-off nose, almost military-looking." "Almost like a cavalry kind of boot, with Motörhead flair to it of course!" "We were at a rehearsal place in the Valley in the mid '90s, and Motörhead was right next door." "Every day we would see Lemmy out at this video game in this lobby area." "It was summer time." "It was really hot in the Valley." "And Lemmy was wearing these shorts." "If I tell you he's wearing Daisy Dukes... lt was like a thong, dude!" "You would walk out of our door, and the first thing you would see was Lemmy bent over this machine." "So it's basically Lemmy bending over with his arse in your face." "That's a weird scene." "We're all wearing shorts, but our shorts are like board shorts." "I finally got the balls to walk up to him, and he's playing the game." "I'm like, "Hey, man." "Hey, Scott." "How are you?"" "I'm like, "We've been wondering..." And he's like, "What's that?""

"I said, "They're really short." ""We see your arse every day." "It's weird."" "And he goes, "What?" "It's hot out." "These are shorts."" "He looks at me and goes," ""Those aren't shorts, those are pants." ""These are shorts. I'm cool."" "And he kind of goes like this, like it made absolute sense!"

"There's just no words." "It's just..." "He's Lemmy." "It's almost... lt should be a verb!" "Nobody told him to do anything that he wasn't completely natural and comfortable doing, and that's rare." "And that's why I think we respond with respect, because we wanna be like that." "I think he's a renegade." "There's not that many of them any more." "Everybody assimilates." "Go along to get along, to get what they need to get." "And I don't see Lemmy as that kind of guy." "I see Lemmy as doing things his way to get where he wants to go." "And that's attractive because people don't do that any more." "(d THE WHO: "Shakin' All Over")" "d When you move in right up close to me" "d That's when I get the shakes all over me d" "The thing I remember about Lemmy, which has nothing to do with music, is he was obsessed, and I think he still is, with one-armed bandits." "You know, the..." "You know?" "And... I can remember Dingwalls, the little club in London, very popular, by the canal." "I think that was probably the first time I ever met him." "You walked into Dingwalls, and just inside the door was the one-armed bandit." "Without fail he would be on that, sometimes all night." "I don't know if he ever won, but, God, he'd play that thing for hours." "I've never seen anybody love those things so much." "They should bring out a Motörhead one-armed bandit, and if you get three Lemmys, you win the jackpot!" "d Shake it all over d" "When it comes to rock and roll, you need something to believe in." "Integrity means everything." "Musically, of course, when you go and you see a band, and you know it's coming from the heart, it touches you more because there's some sort of human connection." "If you go and see some robots just moving around the stage, you might as well go home and play a video game." "But when someone is doing..." "When someone is playing rock and roll from the heart, and they really walk it like they talk it, you pay more attention, because it makes you feel like a human being, in a way." "To connect to someone doing something really honest or true, it's important." "So, to me, more than any other rock musician... I consider Lemmy a legend, you know." "But, to me, more than any other rock musician, he is...the baddest motherfucker in the world." "Mm-hm." "(Drumming)" "Know what would be cool?" "If I could get one of those lyric sheets." "For the instrumentals there's two 1 2 bars in a row." "(Bob) Let's check the levels with Lemmy, make sure he can hear himself." "(Guitar playing drowns out chat)" "That one little spot when it's on the double chorus..." "Yeah, it's a double chorus!" "Fuck!" "For Christ's sake, what was Chuck Berry thinking?" "I remember a show in England that I did with Meat Loaf where the show was held up cos Chuck Berry thought he hadn't been paid." "He wouldn't go on until he had a wad of money." "He had been fucked so many times." "In the '50s there were no rules at all." "A guy could pull a gun and say, "l'm not paying you."" "Even in the '60s, late '60s, Hendrix got burned fucking blind." "He never saw any of the money." "I was standing outside of LAX once, getting ready to get on a plane, and this young black guy comes up to me and says," ""Hey, I read in an interview that the only person" ""you ever wanna meet is Little Richard."" "I had always said that. I didn't give a fuck about anyone else." "I said, "Little Richard?" And he goes, "Yeah." "He's my dad."" "I said, "Shut the fuck..." "Really?" He goes, "Yeah." "Come here."" "And there's this limo parked out front and he goes..." "The window comes down and fucking Little Richard is sitting right there!" "And I'm like, "Oh, my God!" And he goes, "Hey, Dad, this guy..."" "He's like, "What?" He said, "This guy's a musician."" "And the fucking window comes down and he goes, "God bless you!"" "How weird must it have been to be gay and black in Macon, Georgia in the '50s." " (Bob) And an amazing singer." " The best rock and roll singer ever." "I don't know who people consider the originator of rock and roll." "It's Little Richard, because nobody else had..." "He was crazy." "Him, Elvis and Jerry Lee Lewis." "That's it." "Those three." "You can't tell who did the first whatever, but between 'em, they started rock and roll." "(Gröhl) When you meet the originals you realise of course they're fucking troubadours or renegades." "They're fucking freaks!" "So that's where you got all the music that was different than anything else, like Little Richard, a gay black dude in Macon, Georgia in the '50s." "There was nothing he could do but play rock and roll." "Probably not!" "People say, "Don't you like Prince back in the '7 0s, '80s?"" "I said, "No, I've seen Jimi Hendrix."" "(Laughter)" "He comes on with scarves over him with a Stratocaster." "Are you kidding?" "I used to score for Mitch." "I used to score dope for him." "And I used to score acid for Hendrix." "He's a very fair man." "I'd give him ten trips and he'd give me three and take seven." "(Bill) Very generous." "But he had to take 'em then, on the spot." "Yeah." "Well, the thing is with acid, see, they say it doesn't work two days in a row." "But we found that if you double the dose, it does!" "(Laughter)" "Yeah!" "A great day!" "See you, buddy." "Great to have you back." " Are you here for good?" " Yeah, for a while." "I'll call when I get back." "I haven't been to the Rainbow in ages." "I had this fight going on with the fucking Darkness, this band, right?" "That's why I called you." "We went to the show and it was fine." "We went up the Rainbow and we were sitting there." "I'm sitting at a table talking to the singer and he says," ""Hey, you recorded a song with Lemmy, right?"" "I said, "Yeah."" "He said, "We have a feud with him." l was like, "Really?" "Why?"" "He said, "He reviewed our record and he said it was fucking shit."" "And I said, "Have you ever met him?" He said no. I don't think you'd met him." "I'm like, "Dude, he's the fucking greatest guy."" ""Well, so I called him a fucking cunt or something in the press."" ""Honestly he's a good dude." "You'd like him. I'm gonna go take a piss."" "I fucking got my cell phone." "I'm like, "Lem, come on up for a drink."" "So I go up there." "The Darkness are sitting there." "He sees you coming." "It was like, "Oh, fuck me!" "No, no!"" "Then Lemmy sat down, and at first I'm like, "Lem, what's going on?"" "He's like, "l wanted to go to the Darkness gig but they banned me."" "And I'm like, "Have you met Justin, the singer?""

"You get so many tourists that come in " ""Does Lemmy hang here?" "is Lemmy here?"" "If he's not here, he's on tour." "He's got to be one of two places - the Rainbow or on tour."

"What I really like about the Lemmy mythology is that he used to be a roadie for Jimi Hendrix, too, which scores a lot of points in my book, man!" "He would rather play an instrument than carry it."

"I didn't want to live with his mother, you see, because it was only casual sex, really." "But, I mean, I love Paul." "I like Tracy." "She's great." "She did a really good job of bringing him up, up to a point." "He's turned out to be a clever kid and he's good." "He's a great musician." "You have no idea how good he is." "My mum knew The Beatles, right?" "She used to go out with John Lennon, didn't she?" "Obviously, trying to get to Paul McCartney through him!" "No, she lost her virginity to John Lennon." "The story that I've been told by my mum is that George liked her." "He would shyly, coyly look at her when she walked past the bus stop and George would be standing there." "She wasn't interested in George." "And then, you know, I don't know." "Maybe if she had been interested in George, it would have lasted longer than with John!" " lt didn't last long with John." " Nope. lt didn't." "But she always talked about it." "She was very smitten." "But she called you after Paul not John, so..." "Yeah, that's a strange one." "She must have been thinking about Paul when she was with John." "Perhaps she called him Paul and that's why it didn't last." ""Oh, I love you, Paul." "What?" "!"" "Yeah!" "Paul!" " We swapped girlfriends twice." " Yeah, we did." "At the Limelight and then at Stringfellows, wasn't it?" "We swapped girlfriends one night and did it again two months later." "Well, a lot of chicks like that - the old man and the son as well." "It's like screwing the daughter and the mother at the same time." " Yeah, that kind of thing." " Yeah." "(Cameraman) Doesn't it ever feel too cluttered?" "(Lemmy) Yeah, all the time." "What do you think?" "What are you doing?" "Shooting my trash can?" "Fuck off, man!" "You better not put that in the fucking movie." " Where's the trash can?" " There." " l was looking at that." " At what?" "I don't know." "Whatever that is." "It's a fucking Domino's bargain list." "One of my favourite memories of my dad is when I was six years old, and I'd just learnt to play three or four chords." "He came to visit and as he was leaving, he picked up a guitar and he started just playing by the front door, like E major, and we just jammed on that one chord for about 20 minutes." "He was looking right into my face, right into my eyes, and just egging me on, like, "This is the rhythm, the feel." "This is how you do it."" "It was probably the third time I had ever seen him, so that was a major event in my life." "The nicest thing he ever said to me was very recently when you asked him, "What is the most precious thing in this room?"" "and he said, "My son."" "I was kind of blown away by that." "I wasn't expecting that response." "I wasn't thinking he would say that." "But that was amazing." "It was wonderful." "Thank you!" "This is my son, Paul." "Eh?" "Not bad for an only child!" "d Lucky thing for you, babe l'm so lazy d But I'm gonna pull your trigger d" " Go take it to him, Scott." " That's some size." "That's cool." "Yeah!" "I present this tank." "(Laughter)" " lsn't that bad?" " Yeah, it is." "I served several years in the US army as a special operations soldier in Ranger regiment and Special Forces, and I had served in Iraq and Afghanistan." "I know Lemmy is a big military history buff." "My kind of rock-and-roll connective tissue to the military was probably Motörhead." "You know, I would wear Motörhead T-shirts over there." "In a way kind of stating my own individuality." "Not to glorify war or say, "War is really cool," or whatever." "It is what it is. lt's a function of the human condition." "But Motörhead is good go-to-war music." "He's a World War I and World War ll historian." ""1 91 6" was their first Grammy-nomination record about World War I." "And he's a collector of war memorabilia, in general." "I remember watching a BBC documentary with him and he's showing me this airplane, this Messerschmitt." "I'm trying to remember what it was and he's going, "That's wrong."" "I go, "They must have researched the shit."" "Brings out three books to show me that plane wasn't even built then." "(Lemmy) Everybody collects something." "The drummer in my old band used to collect elephants." "He had elephants all over his fucking apartment." "I think I have a collection that might warrant more interest!" "This is a Damascus sword." "See the blade?" "That's Damascus steel." "This is a first model dagger." "It's quite pretty, I think." "Purely decorational." "These are Masonic daggers." "Look at that, huh?" "That's a nice piece, too." "This is from Toledo and not Ohio." "Look at this fucking thing!" " (Cameraman) What is that?" " British." "That's British." "I think it's from the first war." "And this is a German bayonet." "That's seen action." "I always liked the workmanship and the designs, you know." "They were the last great knife makers, the last great sword makers." "It's a craft in Germany that has largely disappeared now." "Even a lot of the American swords were made in Germany." "In the Civil War, there were a lot of German swords used in that war." "Up to the First World War, obviously." "I got Argentinean stuff." "I got Yugoslav, I got Croat," "Slovakian." "(Cameraman) How long has it taken you to amass this collection?" "Years and years, right?" "1 9 years, yeah." "When I came over to the States, I had nothing, you know." "So there we are." "Come on." "(Engine revving)" " l thought I'd dress up for you." " Yeah, you look good." " Good to meet you." " And you." " Nice to meet you." " How are you doing?" "We pulled it all out." "Check it out." " MP40, G43, K98." " That's a nice gun, that." "That's a 251 9." "That's the chassis of 2-22, isn't it?" " 251 ." " 251 ?" " There's the Hetzer." " What was the chassis?" " A 38(t)." "A Czech chassis." " A Czech one." " Skoda." " Right." " Did you have to restore it?" " lt's got the original engine in it." "There you go." "(Starts engine)" "(Lemmy) This is the smallest tank that the Germans made." "It was made actually in Czechoslovakia, based on a Skoda design from before the war." "This was called a Hetzer." "It's a 38(t) chassis." "This is a big gun for a tank this size." "This is a 75mm armour-piercing gun, you know." "This would stop anything, more or less." "They would bury this tank in the ground." "So all that would be visible would be this here." "Just the gun on the top of the tank." "So they would wait for you to come along and just kill you!" "Wars are the most interesting times." "Shows the best and worst in people." "In war you get to find out who your real friends are." "Ask any of those boys coming back from Iraq, you know." "(Cameraman) Anybody who's watching and thinks you're a Nazi, what do you want to say to them?" "Well, I've had six black girlfriends so far." "So I'm one of the worst Nazis you've ever met, right?" "Imagine going to Nuremberg and introducing my girlfriend to the Führer." "Yeah, I don't think so." "I just dress how I like to dress." "I don't ask anybody else to do it, you know." "It's a free country, supposedly." "If the Israeli army had the best uniforms, I'd collect them, but they don't." "So there you go. I can't help it." "It's ridiculous to think that I could be a Nazi." "I'm about as far from it as you could get." "Fire!" "(Laughter)" " (Cameraman) How was that, Lemmy?" " That was great." "(d HAWKWlND: "Silver Machine")" "Hawkwind were really ahead of their time." "I worship Hawkwind." "That's some genius music." "They were like a prog-rock group that punks were allowed to like." "d l just took a ride d On a silver machine" "d And I'm still feeling mean d lt's dangerous rock and roll." "It's not choreographed." "It's not safe. lt's not clichéd." "You never know what you're gonna see." "That's got to be good, hasn't it?" "We were a space-rock band so a lot of the music we played was around science-fiction stories, which we'd sort of interpret and put into music." "We were a pretty heavy rock band with nice flowing electronics." "(Lemmy) People thought we were hippy flower people." "It fucking wasn't true." "We were like a black nightmare." "We used to lock the doors so people couldn't get out!" "It was a psychedelic experience and no one was doing that." "We used to have this sort of trancey beat going, this trancey rhythm and strobe going." "It didn't drive you insane." "It just put you into a trance." "d l got a silver machine lt's quite odd, as New Order, the driving sound Hawkwind had - the very pulsey, percussive, keyboard sounds, we would actually listen to that and try and emulate it." "In songs like "Temptation" and "Everything's Gone Green,"" "we did try and rip off Hawkwind." "They represented the first counter-culture with it and Oz Magazine, and it was very romantic." "It was a wonderful time to grow up and be a kid, but mostly I remember standing at the front, drooling at Stacia." "The girl with her breasts out, which was incredible for a 1 2 or 1 3 year-old." "It was like our education!" "We were a bunch of misfits, basically." "It was like a family." "It was like a family." "(Nik) We had a huge following, because we would do any gig." "We'd do a gig in London and it'd be like a drug dealer's convention." "Dik, Mik and Lemmy were always into a lot of speed, and grumpy." "Dik was always grumpy cos they'd been up for a few days." "We'd get picked up in our van, and Lemmy would be all surly and slam the door and sit down." "We were in the States touring." "We were in Niles, Michigan, on the way to Detroit." "Niles is on the other side of Michigan from where Detroit is." "So we pulled over at a roadhouse to eat, and I wasn't hungry, being a speed freak." "I just got this new camera, so I went out, prowling round, looking for things to photograph." "And I got conked over the head in this abandoned housing project and fucking came round without my camera, without any money." "I go back to the roadhouse and they'd gone, dumped me there." "I mean, what kind of shit is that?" "One of your band members is missing after a meal and you just drive off?" "That's not the way I work." "And so now I'm stuck here." "I have to hitch across Michigan." "I go up to my room, crash out for about two hours, down to sound check, do the show." "Crossing into Canada the next day, I get busted for speed." "In jail for two days in Canada, handcuffed to a fucking iron bar." "Then I get the news, as I'm going into Essex County jail, with overalls over my arm, going into the delousing section, this voice behind me says, "You're bailed, Kilmister."" ""Ah, thank you."" "Flown to Toronto immediately." "Do the show." "Four o'clock in the morning, fired." "They only got me out of jail because my replacement couldn't make it in time." "I found Lemmy in certain ways quite hard to work with because we were in a band where everybody was taking different drugs." "So you had this sort of disparity between people of where they were and what sort of wavelength they were on." "I was into psychedelics myself - pot, mushrooms and peyote, all that sort of thing." "Pretty calm stuff, you know." "And I think Lemmy was more into amphetamines." "He used to hang the band up cos he was never on time to leave when we had to catch a flight and we'd all be downstairs waiting to go." "And it'd be, "Christ, where is he?" And he'd be still in bed." "You'd shake him." ""Come on, Lemmy!"" "It did cause a lot of stress within the band." "All of us got pissed off over it." "It wasn't just one or two." "Then he got busted at the border, sort of thing, which, when you're on tour with all the stress factors, is like the last straw." "And the majority of the band said, "Enough's enough," and that was it." "When I arrived at the gig, I said, "Where the fuck's Lemmy?"" "And they said this other guy, Paul Rudolph, was taking his place, that they'd sacked Lemmy." "I was devastated, but I'm the type of person who... I keep a lot inside, so... I think I just carried on, but I was devastated." "It was quite a sad thing, actually." "Very sad." "I mean, he was very upset over it." "We all were, really." "It was coming for a long time." "It was '7 0s drug snobbery." "Like, they were all just doing organic drugs, man." "I was doing speed and organic drugs, so they didn't like that." "He hated us for it all." "Well, you would do, wouldn't you?" "He described me as a sanctimonious, self-righteous arsehole." "And I thought, "All right." "That's what he thinks of me."" "I went home and screwed three of their old ladies." "Ha ha ha!" "Well, you know, "Vengeance is sweet, saith the Lord."" "And I must admit, I was banging one of them already before we left." "But it was a great time." "I wouldn't have traded it for any other band ever." "I'd probably be in that band now if they hadn't fired me." "But there you are. lt was quite good for him cos look where he is now!" "How long have I been on the road?" "1 9 years." " (Reporter) 1 9 years?" " Yeah." "Give or take a year." " lsn't it boring after a while?" " No." "Why is there so much violence on the road?" "Why do you break things?" "When you start, when you start doing things..." "What fucking violence?" "(Laughter) I don't know what you mean about violence." "You wanna see some violence, baby?" "Come and see me!" "(Reporter) Don't break it!" "No!" "Not me!" "Want to do an interview?" "(d HAWKWlND: "Motörhead")" "d Sunrise wrong side of another day d Sky-high and 6,000 miles away d Don't know how long l've been awake d" "Lemmy was at the beginning of heavy metal." "Maybe even pre-Black Sabbath." "If they'd said to me, "Who was the original metal band?"" "it was a toss between Lemmy and Black Sabbath, but I would say Lem and Motörhead." "d Motörhead, you can call me Motörhead all night d" "They took elements of what existed as heavy metal, mixed it with punk, and created this frantic, intense, powerful music form that went on to define heavy metal as we know it." "It was brash, in-your-face." "It was like getting socked by an overhand right, like Mike Tyson in his prime." "I remember you'd turn the radio on and it was like really rancid disco, bad boy-band pop music." "The Osmonds, stuff like that." "You'd go and see a Motörhead show and it was completely different." "d Silver-tongued devil the demon leech d l know just what I'm doing" "d l like a little innocent bitch d l could not believe that there was a guy singing like that on a record."

"You kind of care up to a point, but the kids were turning up." ""l want to see the worst band in the world." "They must be great."" "Motörhead was speed music, with three people on speed." "Consistency of energy could be contributed to that, and our slim figures!" "Everybody tried to be that heavy after that." "Nobody's achieved it." "We fancied ourselves." "Guns N' Roses did." "If we could be close to as heavy as Motörhead, we'd be successful." "Back when I was young, like 1 9, late-'7 0s, early-'80s, we were very punk rock." "I had my shelf of my old rock records I bought as a kid " "Steve Miller, Aerosmith, Led Zeppelin." "All these bands I used to go see." "And then punk rock happened, and I saw The Clash and The Ramones." "All of a sudden that's the old in with the new." "And you'd see someone with long hair, "He's a hippy." ""l can't listen to that music cos Johnny Rotten says..."" "And then someone would pull out the "Ace of Spades" record, and you're like, "Wait a minute,"" "because this kind of goes against the gospel of the punk rock." "They're long hairs and it's metal but you put the record on and go," ""Damn, man!" "I can't help it." "I'm a Motörhead fan."" "d Playing hide-and-seek cos l'm a speed freak d lt was their look, their attitude, their music." "You felt by listening to their records that they didn't fit in." "You felt that." "When you didn't fit in yourself, there was that instant lightening-bolt connection," ""Oh, shit." "They're one of us."" "(Captain Sensible) I think that this tour is the antidote to Simon Cowell and all the evil shit music that he's purveying!"

"We thought there was no way in the world." "We did it as a joke." "Lemmy said, "Yeah, I'll give that a go."" "He played a whole bunch of Damned songs." "We did one of his, one Motörhead song, and we fucking ruined it!" "Yeah, he wasn't pleased about that." "He said, "l learned all your shitty songs." ""You ruined my one." "One fucking song!"

"You know what Lemmy's doing?" "Lemmy's probably drinking Jack and Cokes and writing another record." "Two, three, four!" "One of the lyrics that Lemmy wrote for me was "Mama, I'm Coming Home"."

"In rock and roll bands that I've been in, the money comes into play and attitudes change." "You wanna act like a rock star." "Motörhead doesn't do that." "Motörhead isn't into that." "Motörhead is in it for the music, for the fans." "(d MOTÖRHEAD: "Whorehouse Blues")" "d Well, we came up from the gutter d The wrong side of the tracks d" "We still have a goal, you know, to move this band forward, and to sound the best and to be able to write good records." "There's no faking going on here." "I used to say there's not a fake bone in Lem's body, and that really is true, you know." "I can say the same for Phil and myself, as well." "We're not faking us through year after year, pretending or so." "And I think that is reflecting out." "It's like an aura around us, I suppose." "(Phil) We've had quite a few people tell us our music got them through particularly low times in their lives." "It does something to us when we play." "For some reason, it's great." "I don't know what it is we do, but it gives you a good feeling." "I guess it's the same for the fans." "I asked him for his autograph when I was 1 2." "He came to my home town, when he was with Hawkwind and he was the only one to sign autographs." "If somebody had said," ""You're gonna be in a big rock band with this guy for a quarter of a century,"" "I would have said, "Come on."" "But it's a good story. lt's quite inspiring." "Anything can happen." "(indistinct singing)" "Fucking microphone!" "What's the point?" "Listen to it!" "Didn't you know it was doing that all afternoon?" "Has nobody tested the mic before?" "I've done gigs with Motörhead and gone to sound check." "It's so fucking loud, you really can't do much." "There's a lot of yelling going on." "(Lemmy) One, two, three!" "That's perfect." "Just a bit more." "An ear doctor would be amazed at just how well Lemmy can hear, considering the abuse he gives his ears." "There's one thing about Lemmy, he'll always hear you if you offer him a drink, even if you walk up behind him!" "We're the loudest band in the world, in the Guinness Book of Records." "That's what people want." "They want it loud, they want it fast, they want it Lemmy." "(Phil) ls it loud enough?" "(Audience) No!" "(Lemmy) You want it louder?" "(Phil) Are you sure about that?" "(Lemmy) This is from "Inferno." lt's called "Killers."" "We went in to record "Power, Corruption and Lies"" "in Britannia Row in Islington in London and the people that had been in before us hadn't..." "You're supposed to level the desk." "When you leave, you take the strip off and you level the desk, put it back to how it was, and they hadn't done it, presumably because it was late when they finished." "And I said, "Rotten fuckers." "Who was it?"" "He went, "Oh, it was Motörhead." l'm like, "Fucking great!"" "So we put my bass through his channels on the desk." "And it sounded shit!" "When I think of Motörhead, I don't think subtlety." "I think of a door blown open." "His voice, it's rasp, you know." "It's like eating fucking nails." "It's more like a wind coming at you." "I have the impression that someone's spanking my ears!" "Everything starts going grainy." "That's it - it's like being in a sandstorm." "That's it." "That's it." "It's the oral equivalent of being in a sandstorm, I would say." "When the lights go down and that motherfucker hits the stage and blows that cigarette out and winds into the bass, it's game over, man." "Drag anybody to a Motörhead show and they're gonna go...

"For that matter, any other musician." "I think the biggest thing is the Rickenbacker and the Marshalls." "That's a sound I don't think I've ever heard anybody create on bass." "And he plays it a lot like some heavy metal guitar players play." "He doesn't play guitar on bass, but it almost sounds like guitar." "The basic difference is that most bass players sounds like this... (Low-pitch guitar)" "Whereas I..." "..sound quite different." "(Amplified guitar)" "Like that." "I always wanted that sound." "I didn't necessarily know it then." "It evolves, you know." " What would you say, Tim?" " What's that?" "How would you say my bass playing encompasses my personality and my outlook on life, generally, in the modern 21 st century already?" "I think the phrase "hammer and tongs" comes to mind." "Really?" "Not a hammer and anvil?" " An anvil and tongs." " An anvil and tongs and hammer." " And stuff like that." " Very hard." "Actually, he's never heard us... (Both talk over each other)" "(Continue to talk over each other)" "Nobody fucking understands a thing we say." "We're just two geezers trying to get along backstage, you know."

"You see any?" "What makes you the proudest in your career?" "Survival, I think." "Every year that goes by, I get a bit prouder." "Cos we proved that we weren't the trash band that they said we were originally." "And every year we survive proves it a little bit more." "You know, like that, right?" "What keeps you going?" "30 years." "What keeps you going and going?" "Well, see, you have a dream when you're a kid, and my dream came true, so why stop it?" "Oh, until 2047." "Then I might slow down a bit." "Might be 2048. I don't know." "I love everything about Lemmy." "The music." "Fucking everything." "There's nothing not to like about Motörhead." "It's the band that's got it all." "They're hardcore." "A proper hardcore band." "They're not like Saxon and all that shit." "They're excellent." "They've always been full-on." "Motörhead set a standard for all the others to follow." "Every time you see them live, they make you deaf." "I don't have to listen to my wife." "For about five days out of every year, my wife is totally ignored because..."

"I thought he'd be like, "l don't give a shit."" "When I said, "Your music really means something to me,"" "he looks at me and says, "Thank you."" "That really means something to me." "(Whispering)" "To look at, he's very intimidating, but this is one of the nicest guys you could ever meet." "So many people hit him for stuff and you just look at him." "Most of the people in his position would not pay attention to half of these things, and this is a guy who'd go out of his way to help anybody." "You see it in his heart." "I was married before, right, and we were all on the road together." "My husband was a huge..." "My husband, Matthew, had come from Indiana, just a Redneck kid." "He idolised Lemmy - huge Motörhead fan." "So we're on tour with Motörhead, and me and Lemmy immediately have this connection." "My marriage was heavily on the rocks, you know." "Lemmy - my husband just wouldn't talk to him or anything." "Lemmy would come up with T-shirts and be like, "Hey, Matt," you know." "And when we actually separated, he was telling all these people in town..." "We were from Athens, Georgia, so it's a small town." "He was telling all these people that me and Lemmy were having this affair." "So he..." "Eight months later he...died." "When I was going through his things - his mother gave me his things - l found a letter from Lemmy." "He had written him a letter saying, you know," ""l know at one point you really liked my band." ""Just so that you know, for the record, Corey and I are really good friends." ""There is mutual love and respect there." ""She did nothing but talk about how much she loved you." ""l would never cross that line." "I'm not that type of man."" "And it was just so cute, because when you read the letter, it was like, "l know at one time you liked me and my band,"" "and it's Lemmy of fucking Motörhead!" "It's so bizarre, but he wrote this really beautiful letter to him with the red candle wax with the stamp on it on the back and sent it to him." "That type of shit, man." "You know, it's like..." "He's a very, very honourable, generous, good, good man." "He's very much a complex emotional person but there is a kind of a distance that he's purposely put in between there." "Do you know what I mean?" "And I think a lot of that is, from what he tells me, from his youth, and how he's always had to look out for himself." "He's realised that 90% of the time the only person he can depend on is himself." "(Cameraman) Tell me about the most important people in your life." "My mother, obviously, cos she brought me up on her own." "And my granny for filling in during the day." "They were really important." "They really dictated my outlook on things." "Being brought up by two women is different from having the big heavy husband in the house." "So I never got, "Let's go out and kill small furry animals, son."" "I never had that shit going on." "I just never missed a father because I never had one so I didn't care." "He was just a miserable little dickhead with glasses and all he ever did for me was walk out on me." "I think I understand women a lot better than some guys do." "Women want the same things as guys do." "They just don't want them for as long." "Guys want the quick fuck in the alley all their lives." "Girls get tired of that pretty quick." "They want security." "Security means you have to give up everything that might be a risk to that, which is why I'm not married." "My dad once went out with a woman that he really fell in love with when he was very young - he must have been about 1 7." "And this girl died of a heroin overdose." "You know, my dad is anti-heroin." "He will not have anything to do with someone who is on smack." "But this girl, and I think it's because of this girl, because he really loved this girl, and she..." "He found her in the bathtub." "He found her dead in the tub." "I think that, as I can recall, he sat in an armchair for, like, three days." "He hasn't been able to feel the same way about any other woman since that woman." "That might be a part of why he is the way he is." "I don't miss her any more." "It's been a long time. '7 3." "That's a long enough time." "I can't even..." "Some of the time you can't even picture her face." "I can picture Suzy's." "She was all right." "She died young and left a beautiful corpse, you know." "When they do that, it's easy to think that they were the one." "She probably wasn't, cos she was a mouthy little bitch as well." "But she was great at the same time." "For a woman to be really interesting, she's got to be something of a bitch, surely." "Somebody going, "Yes, sir," all the time, that's no fucking good, is it?" "You want somebody to give you a run for your money." "No relationship can survive a guy or girl being in a rock band unless the other partner is also in a rock band." "And even then it's difficult." "You're away seven months of the year." "Nobody's going to stand for that." "Either they go with you, which doesn't work, or they sit at home and have affairs." "Or if they take care of the kids, they're building up resentment cos they think you're having a whale of a time on the road." "It can't work." "It's one of those things." "You have to make up your mind between rock and roll or your beloved, and since sex only lasts half an hour at the very top and a rock and roll set lasts an hour and a half, I think we got that one sorted out."
