I remember reading a bio on Lemmy from a british rock mag in the early 80s and thought 'Sam Gopal and The Rockin' Vicars' was one band.

Dave Brock is 73 years old guys...so if Hawkwind comes to you're town DO NOT miss them. Could be you're last chance.

I love "Opa-Loka", but Lemmy apparently thought it was garbage. Might be the only place where I'd disagree with him.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:48pm

Not that much mention of Lemmy's death in the mainstream media. Just wait till Paul McCartney dies. Nothing else will be talked about in the news for a week.

Abe Vigoda will be revealed to be Moorcock's Eternal Champion at the end of time
  3:52pm

I disagree, Rory. Lemmy was featured in, among others, the NYT, the Guardian, the Bay Area papers here. Actually, I was kind of surprised by the level of coverage. But yeah, McCartney will be another matter entirely.
  3:56pm
Dean:

What a load of work an ellipsis would do in this title: Jesus' Blood Never Failed Me...Yet.

Pat Flynn:

Is this the 90s duet version with Waits towards the end?

She lived underground with her dad once she got back in the States. It took Yoko years to find her. They were estranged for a while, but I guess they have worked on mending their relationship.

Cecile & Jeanne - It does seem to be kind of a crazy story (which I don't know much about) in that Yoko had custody and then Kyoko's dad kind of abducted her and never returned her and kept her out of touch with Yoko for decades while he was involved in religious organization?
