Thom remembers Lemmy

WHEN LEMMY CAME TO AUSTIN
The show had to be cancelled
His health was always endangered
(That was his chosen lifestyle..
but we all grew up with Lemmy
when he was part of Hawkwind
and the loss of Lemmy resonates
across too many generations
Of course he was an alpha male
Each band has room for only one ego on stage
But Brock remembers Lemmy with a smile
And we knew him as punk and wild
His bass lines ring within our Silver Machines

7x7 -tonight-dream of Lemmy-in Heavy Metal Heaven!

...BECAUSE SOME OF US THINK THAT THIS STUFF IS IMPORTANT
What happens when you mix what is - arguably - the world's most interesting record company, with an anarchist manic-depressive rock music historian polymath, and a method of dissemination which means that a daily rock-music magazine can be almost instantaneous?

Most of this blog is related in some way to the music, books and films produced by Gonzo Multimedia, but the editor has a grasshopper mind and so also writes about all sorts of cultural issues which interest him, and which he hopes will interest you as well.
