Campbell and Motörhead bandmate Mikkey Dee will join Saxon when they headline the Swedish racing series V8 Thunder Cars final, the Lemmy 500 at Ljungbyhed on September 24th. Saxon will give the Swedish audience a full concert to honour the legendary frontman of Motörhead, Lemmy Kilmister who passed away recently. Saxon will also team up with Mikkey Dee and Phil Campbell to make a one-off musical tribute to Lemmy performing some of Motörhead’s greatest hits.

”It’s going to be great to come back and see all our Swedish fans! This event is something special an unique. We have never before made a concert at a racetrack on a raceday and also to do a tribute to our long time friend and rock icon Lemmy along with Mikkey Dee and Phil Campbell”, says Biff Byford, the lead singer of Saxon, whose latest album Battering Ram reached #13 on the Swedish charts.

”This is going to be a night to remember! Playing some of Motörhead’s greatest hits together with our friends Saxon is going to be a great tribute to our former friend and band member. The Lemmy 500 will go down in history as the rockiest race championship final ever!”, says Motörhead drummer Mikkey Dee.

The Swedish national championship racing series V8 Thunder Cars has been given the go-ahead to name its final race in honour of Lemmy – the winner of the Lemmy 500 and the championship will be crowned on stage before the concert starts.

”There will be no other race more prestigious to win than the Lemmy 500 in Sweden,” says Alexander Graff, runner up in the championship last year and one of the favourites for the title this year.

”It will be one hell of a final, a true party of rock ’n roll and racing mixed together. Both Saxon and Motörhead are huge here in Sweden and we will make sure the spectators will feel right at home in our paddock – we are quite a rowdy but friendly bunch and definitely more rock ’n’ roll than the glamour that is so often associated with motorsports.”
