We all said when we bought tickets for the 40th anniversary tour that it might be a last chance to see job. It's starting to look that way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aye, I was a bit sloppy with the reply. Lemmy is the last founder still on board. In other news, Fast Eddie is still alive and well, albeit less fast these days.He matters cos he's the first guitarist most people remember. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YoungWillz 21,037 Posted December 29, 2015 On the basis Ozzy Osbourne has corroborated, I'll stick him up on the round up. Wonder how many pools that's buggered up.

Fergie86 375 Posted December 29, 2015 Shocked, knew he had health issues but somehow thought he would get better Lemmy is the sort of person you thought would go on forever and be the one at your Grand-kids funeral well after everyone else from his era had carked it still i suppose a bottle of Jack Daniels a day for 40 years, Drugs and sleeping with over 2,000 women was bound to catch up with him eventually, a miracle he made his 3 score years and 10 really.

msc 18,439 Posted December 29, 2015 Bloody hell. He always seemed like the type of person to have the Reaper on a restraining order. Remember his immortal life lessons: "The secret to not dying is to keep breathing." Might have forgotten that one at the crucial moment there, Lem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Feels weird seeing his name up on news sites with "dead at 70", "died 2 days after his 70th birthday".... I'll never forget what he said to me shortly before buying me a beer after I bumped into him as I was heading to the medical tent at Donnington after getting my nose broken. He put his hand on my shoulder, looked me straight in the eye and said "You look a right fucking mess. Get yerself cleaned up and we'll get some beers down ya" 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You might be reading that he died 2 days after being diagnosed with agressive cancer..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Guest Posted December 29, 2015 I know it's been suggested before, but Lemmy from Motörhead could be a contender for next year. Diagnosed with severe haematoma last year, after collapsing on stage. Before that he was fitted with an implantable cardioverter defibrillator to teat an irregular heart beat. He's also got a bad diabetic problem. Not to mention all those years of wild hedonism. Also, he says he wants to die on stage, so it wouldn't surprise me if he pulls a Michael Jackson and pushes himself overboard. *Moved: I guess we aren't meant to make suggestions in the 'ideas for 2015' thread if the person in question already has a thread of their own? Noted for next time.* please let us know who should be on the list for next year Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
