••• MEDIA ALERT - LEMMY: THE MOVIE •••

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

BBC4, 21:40 Friday 22 July

This two hour film celebrates the life and rock 'n' roll philosophy of Motorhead frontman and bassist Lemmy.
Lemmy became the bass player in Hawkwind and sang their biggest hit Silver Machine before forming his own hard rockin' metal trio Motorhead in the mid-70s, blending punk and primal rock n roll into a foot to the floor, hard driving rock n roll aesthetic which resulted in monster hits like Ace of Spades and the live album, No Sleep Til Hammersmith in the early 80s and to which he has remained constantly steadfast.
Still touring, still enjoying the rock 'n' roll lifestyle, still inspired by Little Richard and The Beatles, Lemmy remains the ultimate unredeemed and unrepentant rock 'n' roll star. Joining Lemmy and members of Motorhead to celebrate his life and times are Hawkwind's Dave Brock, Metallica's James Hetfield, Dave Grohl, Alice Cooper and Peter Hook.

I thought - well that's my Friday night taken care of.
Until a closer inspection of the listings revealed Phil Collins on ITV

Lemmy the movie was hilarious. Still pretty much the sickest guy ever at over 60. Could have gotten Eldritch or someone to replace some of those irrelevant LA glam fag morons though, i almost couldn't believe the miracle of Peter Hook being on there, far better than Nikki sixx or whatever losers who should have died with a needle in their arms at birth (kat von douchebag? please. go suck a dick for some junk)

and bless him, he wanted the Beatles albums in mono, even more legendary
