  Damn, Lemmy was an icon. He started as a roadie for Hendrix.

  Oh man no. Lemmy and Motorhead's style influenced many of my favorite bands. Without Lemmy there would be no speed metal or thrash metal, and all the other offshoots down the line. He will be missed. Hopefully someone will take up his banner soon, before all the good music is gone, and we are left with fucking manufactured pop.

  70 years for Lemmy is like 217 for a normal guy. Eddie Trunk mentioned that Lemmy would have wanted beers, not tears. I'll just play 'Ace Of Spades' and 'No Sleep 'til Hammersmith', and when the neighbors ask to turn it down, I'll just crank it up more. Lemmy'll like that I'm sure.

  It's been rumored that Lemmy slept with 2000 women. That's a total fabricated lie -- it's only 1200

  King of the one hit wonders, but when it's a hit that has influenced 2-3 generations of bands, it's a lifetime accomplishment. RIP Ian.

  I first heard Lemmy's thunderous bass playing on Hawkwinds Space Ritual Live album. A space/rock band to the max. Bet you guys haven't heard of them.

  I honestly only know Lemmy from Motorhead's doing theme music for the wrestler HHH. He did two for HHH and one for a faction HHH was in. The two for HHH as a solo act are probably the two best wrestler entrance themes ever.

  My favorite wrestling theme song was the entrance music for Stone Cold Steve Austin, the glass breaking, I don't know who did that song. My second favorite is D Generation X's entrance song.

  I think the original Stone Cold song - or at least the widely used one that everyone knows - was a WWE production: guy who did all those was a Jim something, last name started with J (I think)...he had one by an actual group when he came back from neck surgery that I didn't like too much, but the one he had shortly in 2001 when he was with the Alliance (which may be #3 on my list: it's either that or 'Voices' by Rev Theory for Randy Orton) was awesome: just a short instrumental. I work out to that one often.

  I was never a motorhead fan to any major degree. Maybe I just got a listen to some of the suckass songs and every band seems to have. BUT, I just listened to Sundry_Misc's "playlist" of 'Ace Of Spades' and 'No Sleep 'til Hammersmith'. They kicked ass! Guess I'll do some motor youtubin' this evening. :)
