Rolling Stone are reporting that Alice Cooper and his Hollywood Vampires bandmates will bring some edge to the Grammys next week with a tribute to late Motörhead frontman Lemmy Kilmister and the premiere of a hard-rocking, brand new song, "As Bad As I Am”.
"We started this band as a means to toast our 'dead drunk friends' at the Rainbow, all the ghosts in the bar, and now I guess Lemmy is involved in that, too," Cooper tells Rolling Stone. The group - which includes Johnny Depp, Aerosmith's Joe Perry and Guns N' Roses' Duff McKagan, among others - are set to perform both during the awards ceremony, which will air live on CBS on February 15th.
"Lemmy was one of those salt-of-the-earth guys," Cooper says. "Find me somebody who didn't love Lemmy. He's just one of those guys that's impossible not to like.”
