Lemmy


Guest: Lemmy. Lemmy had lots of stories. He talked about being a
roadie for Jimi Hendrix. Jimi used to put hits of acid under his
headband and let them melt into his skin. Lemmy never saw Jimi's
famous knob, but he did see the plaster cast of it.* He and Steve
talked about the old days at the Speakeasy and other clubs in
London. Helen of Troy, the "Little Person" who used to hang out
with the London punk scene, is still around. She doesn't answer
her phone though, Jonesy reveals. Lemmy's Dad was a priest!!, but
Lemmy's not very religious. "Rock 'n' roll is my religion." he
sez. Motorhead plays the Wiltern tomorrow & is working on a solo
album.

Minute Warning when they got signed.)

introducing himself all nice and proper to head flight attendents,
etc. while on tour with the Neurotic Outsiders and then suddenly
farting. Jokester!! We learn that Jonesy was a skilled mountain
biker before his back gave out, but Glen Matlock was not. (Was

Dumb web sites

Laist.com try to be all snarky anti-indie/pro-Kroq ( ooh how subversive ) but end up with the most comments they have ever had on any topic telling them how stupid they are. Link
and then blogging.la tries to do the same thing..link and show their real sadness by talking about podcasts as a viable medium and only getting 2 comments.

..kicking against the ..

Some fight for the station.
"Let us note at this time that Jonesy’s Jukebox has been particularly successful in poaching KROQ listeners. Indeed, if given the choice between Hoobastank and a cockney ex-junkie playing Foreigner and Sweet, sensible young men choose the latter. "

" Most of all, X should be played at least once an hour, for the remainder of our lives, on L.A. radio. "
