Motörhead - Frontman Deceased
It has just been announced that the legendary frontman Ian Fraser "Lemmy" Kilmister of the UK heavy metallers Motörhead passed away sometime yesterday, December 28th, after a short, aggressive fight with cancer.
The remaining members of the band states: "There is no easy way to say this?our mighty, noble friend Lemmy passed away today after a short battle with an extremely aggressive cancer. He had learnt of the disease on December 26th, and was at home, sitting in front of his favorite video game from The Rainbow which had recently made it's way down the street, with his family.
We cannot begin to express our shock and sadness, there aren't words.
We will say more in the coming days, but for now, please... Play Motörhead loud, play Hawkwind loud, play Lemmy's music LOUD.
Have a drink or few. Share stories. Celebrate the LIFE this lovely, wonderful man celebrated so vibrantly himself."

When a 70-year-old chain smoker and heavy drinker (amongst other things) gets cancer, it's not a government conspiracy, it's an unfortunate inevitability of life. Like Pazd said, when children get cancer through genetics or sheer bad luck, that's awful, but 70 years of living hard catches up eventually, and Lemmy knew the risks. I'm sure he'd also say that he wouldn't've traded a lifetime of fun living for a few more years.

Written by Bad English on 30.12.2015 at 04:54 I can't find anywhere that mentions where the cancer was located, other than it was "extremely aggressive". He celebrated his birthday on the 24th, was diagnosed on the 26th, and passed away on the 28th. No time for chemo or treatment.

Written by Overrwatcher on 03.01.2016 at 02:37 yes when I posted I did not knew date a date when he was diagnosed whit that disease. Maybe I am fool, I hope not I wont get trhis, but if I ever have I wont refuse treatment, its blind, gives fake hopes. My way will be suicide, big knife in a troth ... and I don't joke Unless in next 2 days we wont be able clone something I know some new ways on troath we close from skin and it means we can speak after surgery
