Lemmy Page #5

but between 'em,

they started rock and roll.

When you meet the originals

you realise

of course they're f***ing troubadours

or renegades.

They're f***ing freaks!

So that's where you got all the music

that was different

than anything else,

like Little Richard, a gay black

dude in Macon, Georgia in the '50s.

There was nothing he could do

but play rock and roll.

Probably not!

People say, "Don't you like Prince

back in the '70s, '80s?"

I said, "No, I've seen Jimi Hendrix."

He comes on with scarves over him

with a Stratocaster. Are you kidding?

I used to score for Mitch.

I used to score dope for him.

And I used to score acid for Hendrix.

He's a very fair man.

I'd give him ten trips and

he'd give me three and take seven.

Very generous.

But he had to take 'em then,

on the spot.

Yeah. Well, the thing is

with acid, see,

they say it doesn't work

two days in a row.

But we found that

if you double the dose, it does!

Yeah! A great day!

See you, buddy.

Great to have you back.

- Are you here for good?

- Yeah, for a while.

I'll call when I get back.

I haven't been to the Rainbow in ages.

I had this fight going on with

the f***ing Darkness, this band, right?

That's why I called you.

We went to the show and it was fine.

We went up the Rainbow

and we were sitting there.

I'm sitting at a table talking to the singer

and he says,

"Hey, you recorded

a song with Lemmy, right?"

I said, "Yeah."

He said, "We have a feud with him."

I was like, "Really? Why?"

He said, "He reviewed our record

and he said it was f***ing sh*t."

And I said, "Have you ever met him?"

He said no. I don't think you'd met him.

I'm like, "Dude,

he's the f***ing greatest guy."

"Well, so I called him a f***ing c*nt

or something in the press."

"Honestly he's a good dude.

You'd like him. I'm gonna go take a piss."

I f***ing got my cell phone.

I'm like, "Lem, come on up for a drink."

So I go up there.

The Darkness are sitting there.

He sees you coming.

It was like, "Oh, f*** me! No, no!"

Then Lemmy sat down, and at first

I'm like, "Lem, what's going on?"

He's like, "I wanted to go to

the Darkness gig but they banned me."

And I'm like,

"Have you met Justin, the singer?"

I talked to him for, what,

half an hour that night?

He didn't change my opinion one bit!

D Riots in the burning streets,

crystal night outside

d Brutal music in the night

enough to make you cry

d Nobody knows how it is

to sleep and drown the world

d I am the midnight snake

to bite your little girls

d Outside in the distance

the city in the fire d

The Rainbow Bar and Grill

is the most famous restaurant-bar

where musicians

and hangers-on and groupies...
