from rafferty to motorhead... how did this happen?

[drterror666]

We watched a Lemmy DVD yesterday.

Was that the Lemmy documentary? I've yet to see that. It's supposed to be brilliant, as long as you're into Motörhead.

[oldspice]

Yes - it was on a DVD Eddie bought. It was quite interesting I suppose. He seems to be a nice guy. I'm not into Motorhead. It's far too grungy and screechy for me. I like my rock to be a bit bluesy and a bit edgy.  I like some of Led Zepplin - The Stones - The Clash - that sort of thing - and a lot else besides.

I have vivid memories of frequently being right next to the speaker in a rock club in the 70s when 'Overkill' blasted out - I'm surprised I didn't suffer severe loss of hearing!

[drterror666]

I've been to so many loud gigs I've lost count. Six of these were Motörhead. I can still hear everything.

being a hardcore rock/metal fan myself, the last concert i went to was, erm... gerry and the pacemakers. (which featured the original gerry but none of the original pacemakers.) ROCK ON!

[drterror666]

Their Pacemakers probably stopped working!

Well, I thought it was clever...

I saw Hazel O'Connor t'other day.

I saw them live at a free council in our town park a few years ago. They were brilliant! Gerry can still sing really well.

The most recent 'well-known' artist I've seen is Jeff Beck at the Royal Albert Hall last year. At the end he invited a 'guest' on to the stage - David Gilmor! Awesome.

yes, gerry's voice is still with us. i even got him to sign some merchandise.

Ooh, I bet that was good. I did 'Eighth Day' on karaoke the other night.

[drterror666]

She did the entire Breaking Glass album in commemeration of the film, plus D-Days and some other stuff that wasn't so interesting! The only thing I missed was the synths, but there you go. She's definitely still got it!

and now liz taylor's gone. RIP, liz... i'll always remember you as the voice of maggie from The Simpsons.

[drterror666]

We're losing quite a lot of people at the moment.

[wjp666]

it's like a couple of years ago when all the celebrities decided to drop off one by one. i hope this isn't another morbid year like that was.
