September 1, 2008, 16 years ago
Thirsty interviewed MOTÖRHEAD legend Lemmy Kilmister recently about a number of topics. Here are a few excerpts from the chat:
Thirsty: Tell me about the new Motorhead record. It was recorded in Dave Grohl's studio? How long have the two of you known each other?
Lemmy: "That's two questions. I've known Dave about 10 years and if you want to know about the album, listen to it!"
Thirsty: You have a documentary coming out next year. When did the directors approach you to do this? What was it like having them work so closely with you?
Lemmy: "Last year. Cool!"
Thirsty: What do you think will surprise your fans the most in this film?
Lemmy: "The view of my inner ear."
Thirsty: There's a lot of Motorhead out in the mainstream right now - cell phone commercials, Guitar Hero contests, etc. Is there anything else coming out with the Motorhead brand?
Lemmy: "Motorhead condoms - 'Go to bed with Motorhead.'"
Thirsty: You are going to be on an episode of Californication - how did that come about? Is David Duchovny a fan of yours? Did you ever watch "The X-Files"?
Lemmy: "They offered me money. Don't know. Yes."
Thirsty: Are there any artists you still want to work with? Record with or take on tour?
Lemmy: Janet Jackson, maybe!
Thirsty: How have your audiences changed throughout the years? Have they changed more in the US than in Europe or South America?
Lemmy: "No, not changed - three generations now!"
