Titolo: Lemmy Kilminster, una leggenda vivente!

Riporto qui alcune parti di un'intervista (citata anche in un altro
thread), la versione completa č su 
www.hawkwind.com
, con un Lemmy che
fa morire dal ridere (quasi me lo vedo quando risponde troncando in
due parole una domanda da 10 righe :D). E c'č tanta VERA attitudine
rock'n'roll...
(non traduco perchč rovinerei tutto, ovviamente)
**************************
[...]How much writing input did you have on the songs that you didn't
write? For example, "Lord Of Light" on Doremi Fasol Latido, which is
credited to Dave Brock. Did Dave come into the studio with the song
fully written, note for note, or was it more of a 'jam', here everyone
just fiddled with it until you got something that sounded good?
Lemmy: Dave or Bob or Nik would have the basic, then we'd jam.
vankila: What do you think of that Ace of Spades -remix that was
included on one motorhead Best Of release? Howabout Silver Machine
remix?
Lemmy: An abomination.
JP_Brookes:  How many more years do you think you can keep going ?
Lemmy:  More than you.
[...]the movie in-development about the great MC5? Have they tried to
interview you yet? Also, do you still use a Rickenbacher? 
Lemmy:  [...] Interviewed - yes.  I still abuse a Rick.
nobblywobbly:  My question is quite simple: Have you completed Pac-Man
yet?
Lemmy: Almost.
My question is a simple one. In your opinion, what is/was your
favorite Hawkwind song and album?  
Lemmy:  Se above for album.  Track would be "Master."
[NdDrake: gli album sono "Space Ritual" e "Hall Of The Mountain Grill,
il brano č ovviamente "Master Of The Universe", ovvero una supernova
in musica nel 1971!]
[...] Also, is there any truth to the so-called "riff" between
yourself & Dave Brock?... or is it just another crock of "s***"...
whatever the case, just want to say, that you play a "mean bass", and
the best Hawkwind recordings have you in the lineup... thanx for the
"blanga"!!!
Lemmy: Me & Dave are OK.  Thanks for the compliments!
rupert.cotton:  Despite the fact that speed was legal when Lemmy got
busted, and if it was a mistake on the customs side then how come
Lemmy still got chucked out of the band?  And was it a piss take that
Hawkwind were one of the first to support Motorhead?
Lemmy:  Speed wasn't legal - but it was wrongful charge - cocaine; and
we supported Hawkwind!
rupert.cotton:  how much do you charge for a movie and if you wish to
collaborate with the script get in touch with bad acid in poole
Lemmy:  How much have you got?
Keith Henderson:  Alan Davey has said that he wanted to learn to play
bass upon hearing your playing on "Time We Left..." from Space Ritual.
Was there anything you heard that made you want to play bass (or
switch to bass, given that you played guitar with Sam Gopal)? 
Lemmy: I played bass 'cos they decided they didn't want a guitarist!  
Rev Paul Stevens (a real rocking vicar!):  You obviously were the Ace
of Bass in Hawkwind, but who was your favourite out of your
successors? Dr Who? The Space Dwarf?
Lemmy: Alan Davey - no doubt.
Dan (a limey in the US):  How did both versions of the song
"Motorhead" come about - one has Dave doing the vocal & the other one
has yourself & a violin solo ??? 
Lemmy:  Dave fucked the track about!  Not my idea!
[NdDrake sě, avete capito bene, Lemmy ha scritto e suonato una canzone
perchč l'assolo fosse suonato col violino!]
simon.d.walker:  Having followed Motorhead ever since the early days
of Hastings Pier in the mid 70's right thru to, Hastings in the late
90's! and various guest appearences with Hawkwind in between. I have
just one question for you. "How could a person of such intellectual
standing, such as you, could ever pose for a picture with Tara
Palmer-Tomkinson. Anybody else, even the Nolans, but her?"
Lemmy:  I like women.
Ian Abrahams:  It's been a long time since you were (unceremoniously)
ejected from the mothership! What keeps you coming back for so many
very welcome guest appearances?
Lemmy:  I just can't resist it.
carrie:  Lemmy, what's the most important thing in your life today?
Lemmy:  Breathing.
john.parsons:  You've spent many years in the music business since you
left Hawkwind, what do you think keeps the "Hawkwind Legend" alive?
Lemmy:  Hawkwind.
jskinner:  If you were stuck on the proverbial desert island - what
music would you.take and what would be your luxury item? 
Lemmy:  Everything.  And fly spray.
[NdDrake alla faccia di chi vuole ascoltare solo una cosa e detesta il
resto :P]
jskinner: How would you describe the attitude and atmosphere of HW
(and the fans) in the early 70's? 
Lemmy:  Brained, but good!
jskinner: Do you ever get tired of being idolised for being in a band
that you left nearly 25 years ago or are you still as proud of the
music (movement?) you were part of?
Lemmy:  No.  Yes.
freddo456: Do you plan to win back Motorhead's "Loudest Band in the
World" title now that it's been stolen by Metallica?
Lemmy:  Manowar, actually.  Who cares?
[su Simon King, batterista degli HW che presentň Lemmy alla band]
and presumably you were friends(!). Have you any idea why Simon gave
up drumming (circa 1980) and what happened to him thereafter?
Lemmy:  I believe he's an antique dealer.
[NdDrake: segue il delirio totale :D]
Detlef Varga:  In early years (and nowadays as sure) I've heard
Motörhead (and of course Hawkwind) as well as the other metal bands,
such as Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, Venom and all the unnamed others,
but your sound and stage-show was so imaginated for me, that in the
past I could no longer sitting on the chair of stupid working-man.
Lemmy:  I see.
Detlef Varga:  So I went to the other side of life, the better way of
life without daily force to make money or to have been successful,
such as others human beings day for day ran away for themselves and
losing their own roots.
Lemmy:  Yes, I know.
Detlef Varga: At this time I've made my own way and was no longer
impressed by things such as government, police, moral statements,
general patterns and so on, and all the bothering low-level thinking
was throwed overboard. This was my basement of living truly.... in
peace with me and environment....
Lemmy:  Exactly.
Detlef Varga: And now (for years ago) I'm more successful as all the
others dead-walking-men, and this was not the reason of luck or money,
it was the way of turning life into odyssey of mind and power.
Lemmy:  Way to go!
Detlef Varga:  So I thank you very much for inspiration and hard music
(Ace of Spades!), for thinking different and getting the real way to
come alive in this dirty and sucking world (or is it heaven?!?).
Lemmy:  I dunno.
Detlef Varga: Let's smoking and drinking, have fun and pleasure; sex
is great and the only way to turn the other fucking assholes is
kicking them as hard as we can!
Lemmy:  That is the truth.
Detlef Varga: In this way I greet you well and I would be happy about
a little response.
Lemmy:  Die besten Wünsche für frohe Weihnachtstage und für ein
gluckliches und erfolgreiches neues Jahr!
[NdDrake fine del delirio, ci avete capito qualcosa? :D]
Danigdm:  Lemmy.  Do you feel like a nut?
Lemmy:  No.  I hate nuts.  I like raisins.
Subsct:  Lemmy, subsct here wanting to know how you dealt with
Calvert's "demeanour" day to day on tour? 
Lemmy:  I used to hit him.
jono:  Hi man we met over 16 years ago on the Another Perfect Day tour
Sheffield University - we ended up in Rebels night club -  just wanna
say thanks for the company you were a real genuine gent.  Lemmy, my
question "is it true you stick lead pencils into your speaker cones to
get that distinctive distorted tone".
Lemmy:  Only once.  It worked though!
psellers: Do you think you'll ever move back to England ? 
Lemmy:  Don't know - probably not.
Animal:  How are you drunked?  Hello from Genoa.  Your fan Tony Ace.
Lemmy:  With drink.  Buon giorno.
Tim, Blackpool:  Did you ever play with The Rockin Vicars from
Blackpool?
Lemmy:  Yes, '65-'67.
Henrik Johnsen:  Hail Dark Lord Lemmy!  I have a few questions I hope
to get answered by you: On records such as Doremi Fasol Latido  and
"Psychedelic Warlords " you used various effects on the bass. What
were they? Were they mostly added in mixing or did you use them live?
Lemmy:  In the mix.
Henrik:  Are there any recordings of you pre-HW available?
Lemmy:  Sam Gopal, Rockin' Vickers, something like that.
[NdDrake chiaro ragazzi? A caccia!]
Henrik:  Was your sacking from HW really a result of
"acid-peace&love-hippie" Nik Turner wanting to get rid of
"speed-psycho-rocker" Lemmy? 
Lemmy:  He just apologized 3 weeks ago, actually!
[NdDrake dopo 25 anni...]
joel:  Are you made of leather? Why aren't you dead yet, you child of
the generator? 
Lemmy.  No.  'Cos I'm alive.  And my Mum's name is Jessie.
sprice:  Hey Lemmy, were any recordings ever made of Opal Butterfly or
The Rockin Vicars? Are they available? And if you remember.... why was
the Motorhead gig in detroit two years ago cancelled?  YOU ROCK!
Lemmy:  No Butterfly - Vickers!  "Stella"/"Zing Went the Strings";
"It's Alright/Stay by Me"; "Dandy/I Don't Need Your Kind".  Three
singles.
IainFerguson: [...] but my cat is called Iron Horse.
Lemmy:  Good name for a cat.
micki-douglas:  did you ever fall off the bomber!!!!!!
Lemmy:  No.
Mick Crook:  As well as playing bass with Hawkwind, you've also played
guitar on some recordings e.g. "Lost Johnny" on Hall of the Mountain
Grill.  Did you ever play any guitar live on stage with Hawkwind, and
did Dave ever play any bass?
Lemmy:  No.  But I played guitar on "The Watcher" and "Space is Deep"
on Doremi. 
brad:  Hey Lemmy - Do you recall playing The Concert Hall in Toronto,
Canada with Razor in '92? I believe it was one of the first tours with
Wurzel. Anyhow, the reason I ask is because I was there and you guys
smoked! I remember that you stopped the show during 'Love Me like a
Reptile' because, as you said, 'some little fucker just spat phlegm
from his fucking throat on me -- and I don't like it!' and then you
said that if we saw who did it we should 'cripple 'em, cuz they just
stopped your show.'
Well, to make a long story short - me and my brother Patrick who rode
with the Hell's Angels at the time, did just that! We gave the little
shit a taste of the iron fist. 
Rest assured, that if he did any spitting after that it was through
broken teeth.
Lemmy:  Thank you kindly, gentlemen! 
[NdDrake cosa si diceva su sputi e cose del genere?]
Ron:  I really dig your work on the Doremi Fasol Latido album.... How
come Motorhead never covered "The Watcher" or am I just misinformed?
Lemmy:  It was on the first Motorhead album!
Alex, Sweden:  If and when the reunion shows takes off, which tune
would you like to play most: "Lost Johnny" or "The Watcher"?
Lemmy:  Not "Lost Johnny"! 
Question: you once hinted at a foul act of revenge after you were
"dismissed" from the band. What was this foul act and has Brocky
forgiven you after all this time? 
Lemmy:  I went home and screwed all their girlfriends!  No, but I've
forgiven him!
Jim S:  I forgot to ask you the one question that's been on our lips
for years:  What is it with you and Dave Brock? Are you both trying to
try for the record of having your own band for the longest?
Lemmy:  Yes and no.
Jim Hawkwindmotorheadfan:  Sir Lemmy, if you ever played a bass other
than your Rickenbacker, what was it? And what got you hooked on the
Rick itself?
Lemmy:  I originally had a Hopf bass (German) - switched in '71.  The
shape.
mindferret:  HOW BAD IS YOUR HEARING?
Lemmy:  WHAT?

|!!!!!! Come e'!??! Ditemi, ditemi!
The Watcher č molto cupa e creepy, Space Is Deep č uno degli inni piů
belli degli Hawkwind, soprattutto live visto che la mettevano assieme
alle poesie di Calvert!
