Motörhead

I went with a friend to see Motörhead in Leicester last night, and it was an awesome gig. Danko Jones and Saxon were supporting, and while I'll give Danko Jones a miss in future, Saxon were great, even if their intro was sickeningly patriotic.

Motörhead themselves were absolutely amazing, playing a variety of stuff: new, old and classic. Mikkey did a fairly hefty drum solo (easily the loudest part of a concert from which my right ear still hasn't stopped ringing), and they managed to fit an acoustic number in, with Lemmy playing the harmonica. I'm told by a friend (whose uncle works for the venue) that Motörhead reached 118dB before the encore, which is not bad at all.

    Sounds awesome. It must've been fun watching "Killed by Death".

    hehe they're obviously getting older. I went to see them in the Overkill and Bomber tours and was glad I was not right next to the speakers. But then Girls School where too far away to see clearly
