Motörhead – Obituary

And we should pay respect to another Motörhead musician who has left us – guitar player, born 23 October 1949; died 9 July 2011.
Maybe it’s time to share a personal memory: all I wanted was to take a pic of him backstage at Donington Festival, UK, don’t recall the year though 😉 … but as I have never been a real STALKER, I asked for permission first, then: “oh, this young lady wants a photo” he yelled, grabbed me, someone grabbed my camera, and voila – I got a photo I never intended to have… will always remember so-down-to-earth attitude and his kindness.

The other photo I really wanted to have, and although Mr. Kilmister was busy meeting & greeting lotsa other people, he immediately took time for posing with me. Therefore I will remember him as a very kind, approachable and patient person as well. Too bad that the dude who took the pic of Lemmy + me was too drunk to focus the lense…
