Lemmy from Motörhead

that blows.

weird I just bought Motorhead's first LP yesterday afternoon and been listening to it on and off since..

glad I saw them open for Black Sabbath (w/Dio) and Judas Priest at Nissan... what a bill!!!

He 'learnt' of his cancer 12/26 and by 12/28 he was dead.  He was lucky to make it to 70.

Many missed opportunities to hear him live (like strummer),  kicking myself. Feel somewhat better knowing he definitely lived his life to the fullest.

Me, too, but I'm not going to beat myself up over it.  I tend to get too wrapped up in thinking if I miss them in they're prime it isn't worth it.  And while that's sometimes true, it has prevented me from seeing acts like Motorhead, which is just dumb.

John "Brad" Bradbury, the drummer for the Specials

this is a bummer.. he did not look like he was aging very well at the Specials show I saw him at a couple of years ago at fillmore

specials are done I think...roddy has left the band.. Neville already had.. jerry is fighting with all of them and now Bradbury is dead...

caught them just in the nick of time...

I think 'brad' was one of the ones who came out to meet some fans in the back too

no.. I looked at my record... he was the one that came out at the end with Terry and got in the SUV and left without a word or wave..so that is the last time we saw Mr. Bradbury...

the ones that came out and talked to us were Lynval Golding, Roddy Radiation  and Horace panter (bass)

it was a really good show... glad we caught it..


honestly if you look at Bradbury he looked so much older// yes he was like 6 years older but he looked like Terry's dad!

now if the specials do tour it will just be terry, lynval and Horace panter.... that would be sad...
