Motorheadbangers Everywhere!!
Alright! Things are really coming together now! I added some cool new stuff to the website yesterday. First,
I have added several new tattoos to the Motorhead for Life section. If you have a Motorhead tattoo that you want the
world to see, send it in! Also, after many, many requests and a lot of work, I am proud to unveil the new Motorhead
Gallery. Lots of pictures of the band live. There is also a section that will be nothing but pictures of fans
with the band. So, if you ever had your picture taken with Motorhead, send it in. The third (as of yet unreleased) section
will be the Memorabilia section. If you own an interesting piece of Motorhead memorabilia, send me a picture and I will
add it. This includes concert posters and handbills. I would also like to add a section of artwork from the fans.
The artwork would have to be about Motorhead. Sharpen your pencils all you artists... let the world see your talent!
A quick note on the t-shirts (for those of you that have ordered them). I have
delayed production of them for a few days. The silkscreener wants a minimum of 60
when they print and we still need some more orders to make that. Also, I have got
several emails from people indicating that their orders are on the way. So, I
decided to hold off for a few more days. For the new people on the list, check out http://www.imotorhead.com/tshirt.htm. I
will announce the winner of the poster in the next week or two. Remember, the shirt is
fully endorsed by the band, making it an official product!!
* When I went out on the road with Motorhead, one afternoon Phil and I sat down before a
show and did a formal interview. That interview is available now in Real Audio
format at:
http://www.blastmagazine.com
The guys are currently on a much deserved break, having all returned to their various
homes. I will be talking to Lemmy soon and get an update for you on how the rest of
the tour went and the recoridng sessions.

Hello All,
I have often wondered where Eddie and Phillthy have gone, what they are doing etc. After
Eddie finished Fastway I think he dropped out of the limelight a bit. He has though played
again with Motorhead on encore numbers, I know I've seen him play 3 times @ 10th
Anniversary, Cambridge Corn Exchange and also at London Forum. Philthy did have a band
called GMT I think that he played in with Brian Robertson (somebody correct me if I'm
wrong). That's all I know, anybody got any other info???
Cheers,
Nic (MHB163)

Lemmy's been playing one live for awhile. When I saw them last year at Ozzfest he
had one. I know that they sell for about $2,000 here in the US, which puts them well
out of my reach!

I too own a beautiful '76 4001, mapleglo and it is without a doubt the sweetest bass I've
ever played. I must admit that Lemmy was a big influence, but also guys like Paul

Okay, Eija, here's the setlist from the great Motvrhead show at the Nummirock festival,
Finland. The list isn't in anyway in the order Motvrhead played the songs, because I
just scribbled down the songs on a piece paper afterwards. But let's cut to the
chase:
Bomber
No Class
Broken
Nothing up My Sleeve
Sacrifice
Over Your Shoulder
Going to Brazil
Born to Raise Hell
Metropolis
Civil War
Take the Blame
Iron Fist
Orgasmatron
I'm So Bad (Baby I Don't Care)
Killed by Death
Ace of Spades
Overkill
The gig actually started with Bomber and No Class and as far as I can remember they did
continue with Broken. Having played everything but Spadez and Overkill, the guys went back
stage for a while, supposedly to check if the crowd wanted to hear more. And they sure
did, I for example got my throath all sore by screaming "Iron Horse". Anyways,
the guys came back and played Spadez and Overkill. Eventhough tight schedules were put
toghether by the arrangers, Motvrhead played an extra 15 minutes, playing totally for 1
hour and 25 minutes.
An interesting point that Phil made was that his first tour ever with Motvrhead started
here in Finland 15 years ago. Cool, eh?
I believe Lemmy, Phil and Mikkey were pleased to play for 15 000 people, as the last time
they were supposed to play in Finland only some 1000 tickets were sold and the gig was
moved to a small club. They cancelled that show, but they sure as hell didn't do it this
time. Lemmy said at the end of the show that Finland hadn't heard the last of Motvrhead
because they are coming here again soon!
To me it seemed crazy for Motvrhead to play a festival that was held practically in the
middle of nowhere, some 200 miles from Helsinki. I and my friend started driving to
Nummirock at 5.30 am (my friend had actually left home at 5 am) and we were happy to
arrive in time at Nummirock a bit past 10 am. From the very beginning there was little
doubt whether it was Scorpions or Motvrhead people had come to watch. Lots of Motvrhead
t-shirts and flags could be seen throughtout the festival area and you could hear people
talking "yeah, if I met Lemmy it'd be..." or "yeah, if I was Lemmy
i'd..." and so forth.
As a conclusion I'd like to say that no matter what people say about rock 'n roll being
dead - don't listen to those people!

Hey al, regarding the "Play it loud, the Best of Motorhead" tape, It sounds like All of the album On Parole with the exception
of the title track. Fore those who don't know; especially those in the States like me, On Parole was the first Motorhead album
ever recorded, but the third one released. It was recorded in 1976 with Lemmy on bass and vocals, Larry Wallis on guitars,
Philthy Phil on drums and Lucas Fox on one track. It was shelved by the record company until after Bomber was released. Most
of those same tracks Appeared on the album Motorhead, with Fast Eddie on Guitar. Lucas Fox left/was replaced in the middle
of or right after the sessions, Wallis left right after the auditions with Fast Eddie in which they were trying to get
a second guitarist. BTW None of those albums are available in the States except on Import :( On to a more Serious subject,
I must put my two cents in about the prejudice issue. As a white Male with long hair, who wears Metallica and Motorhead t
shirts, and has the Lemmy/James Hetfield moustache, I too have had a lot of Prejudice directed at me. In high school I incessently
got asked, "Do you worship the Devil?" When I would respond "No" People would say, "well don't those rock groups worship the
devil?" You see, In the States there are all these arrogant right wing religious groups who are the self appointed moral
guardians of everything. They're responsible for the V-chip, ratings of television, Protests against anyone and everyone that
does not share their narrow, ignorant views on everything. Any kind of alternative lifestyle falls under their disfavor and
they try to stop it. I think they're the ones who are responsible for all the rumors regarding Marilyn Manson ( the killing
puppies, The one about him removing two of his bottom ribs so he could fellate himself, etc.)I'm rather surprised that this
kind of stuff was going on in Britain, I always thought people were more open and tolerant there. Me personally I'm
a 22 year old college student who loves heavy metal and punk music, is into photography, and has maintained a consistent "B"
average all throughout high school and college. I may be a little goofy, but other than that, I'm a normal, adjusted person,
like everyone else. I think that it's them with the problems, not any of us. Laters, Kelly Harrison, outlawrebel76@ hotmail.com

Greetings once again Fellow & Lady Motorheads !!!
After enduring many obstacles, I've finally completed my collection of original Motorhead
CD reissues. However, I've got a copy of "Welcome to the Bear Trap",
which, song-wise, is now obsolete to me. Before you flame me, I have all the songs
on it. It is a UK-import 20 track collection spanning the Bronze years, and
I'd love to sell it to a fellow fan who would appreciate it properly. It is also
AUTOGRAPHED by the entire band (Lemmy Phil & Mikkey). It's in teriffic condition
and I would like to sell it. In addition, I'll include a ticket stub and 2 different
handbills from their May 22 Lackawanna NY concert, as well as the guitar pick I caught
from Phil at the show.
$30 US, INCLUDING shipping to anywhere in the world in a padded package to ensure safe
arrival takes it all. I'm keeping my autographed copy of Bomber though.
E-mail me at kjturner@intermedia.com
for track listing or if you're interested. I only have 1 of each of the
aforementioned items, and I'm only selling the stuff as a complete set.
Stay clean,
Karl Turner

I managed to locate this CD via Tower Records in London, thanks to those who gave me some

Hey Ace, this is John. I was wondering when the Motorhead Homepage might be having
downloadables like an official Motorhead desktop theme, screensaver, or some real great
background files? Also, when is Motorhead going to have another music video on MTV?
**Ace: Well, to answer question number one... sounds like a good idea... can anyone help
me by providing these files in the first place? To answer the second question...
when the corporates at MTV get their heads out of their asses... and THAT could be a VERY

Hello Motorheadbangers arond the world!!
I'm writing this because on OS 69, Oliver Cornfield wanted to know about the headbangers in south america .... Well,
I am from South America and Brazil is my country. Here the headbangers are almost in the same situation,people think
we are stupid,stinking,dirty and other bullshit.Here there's a TV network that made some dumb soap opera where there was some
headbangers,their image was related to everything that could be of decadent and nasty in a human being.Can you imagine
that?It was the biggest bullshit I've ever heard.They think that just because we use a black T-shirt with a Iron Boar
we aren't normal people. In the Hollywood Rock that happened here some scumbag politician prohibited that beer could be sold
near the stadium. And some ridiculous old woman who presents a Tv show, dressed in a ridiculous way and said that she was
a headbanger.She told the brainless crowd that headbangers are a waste. It was pathetic! But among the others comunications
means that really know what's metal about,They see us like normal people and have a lot of respect,but infortunately
these means of comunication are low in number.No matter because we stay strong until the end!
Motorhead forever!

Recent issues of OS show concern with fighting at concerts and the moral image of MH fans.
My opinion is that violence has no place at MH performances. Think about it. In how many
songs has MH condemned lying, war making politicians an their anti-social status quo?
Violence is exactly what the Establishment wants to do their dirty tricks. Ellard.

In response to Oliver Cornfield
>I'd be interested to hear people's views in other countries- is there the same stigma
attached to the 'head in South America, or >Eastern Europe, for example?
Hi Oliver and all the OS users!
Greetings from Victor (Moscow, Russia) I've read your thoughts on 'Metal Prejudice'
subject and I have to say that you're right in your every word. You're interested in
people's views in Eastern Europe... well, here's my story!
I was born and raised in USSR and of course I remember all the shit that was happening with Heavy Metal fans till the end
of '80. Officially Metal bands were banned here 'cause their music, style and appearance didn't fit the communist ideology.
I know that there was a list of bands whose albums were prohibited to be sold or translated here. This list was compiled by
the Ministry of Culture of the USSR and I'm sure Motorhead was also on this list. But noone could prohibit people to listen
to their favourite bands. Most part of the albums came to USSR and were duplicated illegally on tapes or flexi-discs. First
HM band that I've listened in 1985 was Iron Maiden and their album 'Powerslave' and it really turned my life. Most of us metallers
were not able to wear long hair, HM attributes or so 'cause it could seriously influence their job or studies. That's how
the things were going till the end of the 'Soviet Empire' in 1990-1991. But now there are still a lot of people here who think
that a man listening (or worse playing) Heavy Metal is a low class unintelligent drunk who can hardly find a good job or graduate
university. Some years ago I'd explain it with the fact that all those people got this prejudice during the 70-years of the
communist regime and they still can't get rid of it. But now I see a lot of young people who hate Heavy Metal and headbangers.
They are much younger than me and I really don't know what influence their opinion. Maybe TV, press or something else. Is
it the same thing in UK? Here in Russia most part of the people listen to what is shown on MTV or translated by radio. They
even don't know what it means - 'Motorhead' or 'Black Sabbath', but the one word 'metal' makes them think that it's a bullshit.
Of course there are some metallers that are taking drugs, drink a lot or don't want to work. But how can they judge all of
us by this minority. People usually pay much attention to the bad sides and don't want to notice good. I think it is not fair.
Make an intelligent test between metallers and people who don't like us, and we'll see who will be the first! I was not surprised
to know that some politician in UK is campaigning to call off the OzzFest. The same thing could happen in Russia too. There
are a lot of so-called 'defenders of morality' speaking from the TV screen and sitting in the government. But I don't think
they will be the winners, because we are standing for what we love. Heavy Metal really unites people!
Now some words about Motorhead.
It is not my favourite metal band, but I respect Lemmy for what he done for the world's
metal scene. He's great! Unfortunately I was not present at the Moscow MH concerts (my
friends say that I missed a lot), but I hope that they will come to Russia again - there a
lot of Motorheadbangers here waiting for the gigs.
All the best
Victor
