Happy 60th Birthday Lemmy!



The Popbitch e-mail newsletter offered some fun facts about the lead singer of Motorhead this week, in celebration of his 60th birthday on 12/24:


>> Ancient Ruin <<
Lord Lemmy of Motorhead is 60

Lemmy turns 60 on Christmas Eve. If he worked in
the public sector he'd now be able to retire.
This is a short tribute to Britain's greatest
pensioner rocker:

* When Lemmy soundchecks, the sound engineers
always ask whether the DFA levels on the bass
are OK. (You may not recognise this
technical term immediately, as it in fact
stands for "does fuck all", and has been a
source of amusement to Motorhead's crew and
band for years.)

* After Lemmy collapsed on stage this year from
dehydration, his management managed to get
him to officially agree to start having ice in his
Jack Daniels.

* In his younger years, Lemmy once survived a two
week amphetamine bender on two small fruit pies
and some yoghurt.


now THAT'S rock'n'roll. headbang

Lesser known is that Monsieur Kilmister has won Best Handlebar Moustache on a Non-Homosexual Male thirty years running. nod

And props for giving the world a big F-U by not getting those face mole-warts removed.
