Alice took to doing double shows with some of his freinds.

I really would have liked to go to the Cooper/Zombie show but was afraid Rob’s Mob would pick me up and toss me around, so I didn’t.

I love the man! Hope he’s around to perform “I’m eighty-one and I like it!”

There's something to be said for having unpredictability in a show...that makes it interesting. But having a high probability of losing an eye or your life isn't my idea of a good time.

I caught Big 4 - Anthrax, Megadeath, Slayer, and Metallica - at Yankees Stadium about 10 years ago.

I was in the cheap seats but I was sitting. That was unpredictable...it was cool.

The floor was a different story..that was bedlam. The mosh pit during Anthrax's "Indians" may have set a world record.

The floor calmed down for Megadeath but for Slayer - not a band I'd pay to see unbundled - they were possessed. I was safe in the seated class.

I know a young musician who had a chance to open for Mötorhead. He was excited at the idea, but his management basically said, Lemmy's fans want one thing: Lemmy...they'll pelt you with bottles. He didn't take the gig...smart kid.
