Motorhead Lemmy gets a bottle thrown at him!!

[@poppinlochnesshopster3249]

"if you want to throw something at me, come up here and throw a punch and I'll kick your fucking teeth in" said in that gravelly ass voice was one of the most badass lines I've ever heard.

[@ElectricPylon]

That would have made great lyrics for a Motorhead song!

[@smileysatanson3404]

only Lemmy can deliver such lines and give them the ultimate power

[@tangiers59]

And then goes right back into "Bomber". Lol. I feel for bands trying to perform somewhere and having to worry about stupid shit like this regarding the audience.

[@mathewshaw2772]

Absolutely..Fuckin love Lemmy..No messing..I bet the beer thrower felt a right tit afterwards..And rightly so..TIT!!

[@ronaldshank7589]

He wasn't a wuss, that's for sure! He'd let you know how he felt about things, and he wasn't about to pull any punches about it, either!!!

[@adams115]

I love how long it took the drummer to stop. In the zone, man.

[@jermyhopkisn9654]

@@IvetHere Yeah, also your instinct tends to be to keep going because sometimes something gets fucked up and it breaks down for a moment but the song usually picks back up again, so it's safe to assume.

[@greghunter7722]

This was Southampton Guildhall, 15th November 2011. I was there and I remember it like it was yesterday. Unfortunately, the culprits were punk fans for the support group, which was the Anti Nowhere League. But Lemmy, the consummate professional, set them straight before carrying on. What a great moment from a great man

[@1959blantz]

I'm sure whoever was responsible for throwing the bottle at Lemmy isn't seeing this but if so, I hope you got your ass kicked. Lemmy was the greatest front man of ALL time and one of the nicest people you could ever have the pleasure to meet and throwing a bottle shows total ignorance and lack of respect. RIP Lemmy your music and stage presence will live on forever. We miss you my brother.

[@hamstermunchies5558]

I've literally not heard anyone say anything bad about Lemmy. Everyone describes him as a kind friend who was a true gentleman

[@someoneelse101]

He would have had his ass kicked if the show was stopped

[@abheekgulati8551]

Amen brother. +1

[@1959blantz]

@@abheekgulati8551 Motorhead fans are some of the most loyal fans of any band. Lemmy didn't perform to make more money. Lemmy loved what he was doing and giving his fans one Hell of a show. I really hope the idiot with the bottle got his ass kicked good after the show. RIP my friend Lemmy!!!

[@someoneelse101]

Let's not forget he went on public TV and announced he wouldn't tolerate people throwing projectiles from the audience anymore. The week before that announcement he nearly lost his hand after someone threw a razor blade sandwiched between two coins at him in Ljubljana

[@richardrybinski2320]

I've always hated those phonies who felt a need to endanger other people by throwing bottles, fireworks and other projectiles at the band. In the old punk days of the late 1970's, a lot of English "punks" thought it was cool to gob at the bands. These idiots never knew a thing about the true nature of rock and roll or punk. Same thing goes for the 300 pound guys who "slam danced" into 115 pound girls at hardcore shows in the '80s. Turns out a lot of those fools were the jocks and bullies in high school who continued doing it into their so called "adult" years." They all later became policemen.

[@HolyMuscleOfLove]

And Mickey Dee would continue playing for the next 2 hours, if Lemmy didn't look at him, with a mad expression!

Not saying he wouldn't do it if he felt it justified, but i call bullshit.

[@mattcooper9026]

bollocks!

[@kingpin5984]

Bullshit

[@someoneelse101]

The stage is a musician's place of work. Last thing you should do is interfere with a musician in the course of their duties. I've almost hit people with guitars if I felt they came too close and people have been very antsy about stage rushing since Dimebag's death in 2004. Willie Adler from Lamb Of God pointed this out when Randy Blythe was arrested for manslaughter in the Czech Republic in 2012

[@reidflemming8458]

Even with how mad I’m sure he felt in the moment, he still gave the person who threw the bottle, and the people who may have been considering a fair chance to reconsider. Fuckin good Man

[@eyellgeteven9928]

I don't get why you would throw shit up on stage when a cool band is playing, much less Motörhead! Damn, I miss Lemmy! : (

[@jackburrows1071]

throwing a dildo near steel panther or a rubber bat near ozzy in between songs is the only exception

[@eyellgeteven9928]

jack burrows There definitely are exceptions, LOL!

[@acinraz_6191]

Rip

[@someoneelse101]

Because people are dumb and think it funny.

[@tangiers59]

People shouldn't do it regardless. Even if you don't like the band's music, just leave.

[@MetalD1111]

Lemmy is the fucking man!

[@abelincoln5698]

I was at a concert in Indianapolis and some guy kept pointing one of those lazer light pens in Jimmy Page's eyes , and it really pissed him off. 3 fans, one of which was a woman, knocked the guy down and stomped on him while another guy took his laser and threw it. I didn't feel sorry for him. The show went on without any more distractions

[@michaelstephen819]

Lemmy is right - why go to see a band to throw stuff at them? Motorhead were - and still are - legends. If you don't agree, fair enough, just stay away.

[@bimmyfrizzo3988]

This tikturd should be considered lucky lemmy didn't point him out. Otherwise the crowd would have torn him limb from limb. Nobody disrespects lemmy like that period! (RIP)

[@rhdextre]

Rock n' roll 101: Never, ever, ever..... EVER throw a bottle to Lemmy or he will kick your ass

Unless it's full of jack

[@monsterronster1]

But you don't throw the bottle of Jack, you place it up on the stage where he can see it and chances are you would be the guy he invites backstage to share it with.

[@thereceptives]

I was at this gig. What a banger it was.

[@someoneelse101]

Where was this gig performed?

[@epitaph3988]

All Lemmy had to do was point that guy out to the crowd and he would’ve been dead in seconds. Nobody disrespects Lemmy.

[@lukemorgan5864]

That is so disrespectful throwing beer bottle at Lemmy you never do that to legend rock and roller LEMMY RIP LEMMY

[@mark_beastpriest5539]

That's a dangerous move. Especially for the idiot who threw. You're lucky Lemmy never got a hold of you!

[@nocturnal6311]

[@towlie8155]

The correct terminology is legend not bro...

[@jimbox5948]

Utter disrespect to throw crap on stage much less to The Godfather of rock n roll! RIP lemmy!

[@georgetempest9627]

I am pretty sure this was a gig in Plymouth - the guy that threw the beer was pretty quickly plucked from the audience and the band plaid on... My ears were ringing for several days after this gig and sadly it was the last time I saw Lemmy live :o(

[@123TauruZ321]

Don't write "sadly", be grateful you got to experience it.

[@martyschriver]

They 'plaid' on? Dark Helmet wants a word with you

[@warrentrueman8892]

What a legend. And I'll bet anything you like, even at that age, he could do it. That was no idle threat. Word to the wise everyone... never threaten a god

[@eazyohana3119]

I saw motörhead in the 80’s. Lemmy stopped the show like this because of stage diving. He said keep off the stage its his territory.

[@Juno_-]

You can see the bottle getting slinged onto the stage at 0:46 and Lemmy noticing it

[@theconfusedkid8291]

0:41 I can see the bottle on the middle left

[@phahking1194]

Gotta love how Mikkey kept playing.

[@Djarra]

In the early 90s Lemmy nearly lost the use of his left hand after some idiot threw a bottle at him on stage. So no wonder he took such a hard line. I remember back then he was very vocal about it, and got Ozzy, Priest, Alice and many others to join him and for a while there was a lot of people leaving the stage when something was thrown but quickly the rest just started to beat up the throwers and it stopped. But back then it was a lot worse than anything you see today.

[@TheMastermind729]

Jesus the nerve of some people. The badass music probably making some people more aggressive.

[@PawelSlab]

yea, the sneakiest fuckin thing

[@123TauruZ321]

I think it was dipped in some kind of poison too. Imagine if that hit him in the eye, may have been the end of Motörhead back then.

What dissapoints me the most is that the video ends before bomber finishes... It's a bummer :(

[@anatudor]

As far as I can remember, Lemmy actually got nasty cut on his hand (which, um, you know, he needed to play) once in the 90s because of an idiot who decided to throw shit on the stage. So not cool. You're there to have fun, not ruin the night for everyone. Can't believe people still don't get this. When I saw Kreator in Brussels in December, some imbecile decided to waste beer and threw one of those thick, reusable cups towards the stage. Didn't get all the way to the stage, but it got to the front row. I know this because it cracked my skull and I had to hold some tissues there to at least slow down the bleeding for a couple of songs, which also happened to be two of my faves in the set. If that thing had been thrown just a little bit harder, it could have hit Mille and that could have ruined the night for everyone.

[@theconfusedkid8291]

Thanks for saying that lemmy at 1:18

[@rajarahman9823]

TRUE COMMENT. Remember Donington, where, someone threw a cracker or firework and Lemmy tore the bloke to pieces with words. Proper angry. Don’t go to a show and chuck or spit at the band. They will turn on you. Someone spat at Tom Araya at the Marquee. He was proper pissed. Don’t be silly people. Enjoy the show as they may never play again.

[@tonyjones1560]

Why in the WORLD does anyone go to a concert and get "wild" enough to throw objects at the band? Seriously? Get arrested, get prosecuted, injure someone in the band...and in a perfect world, get "tuned up" by someone in the crowd for ruining the show (hopefully just when the band leaves the stage), and deservedly so? I saw Living Colour in Stuttgart back in '88. No one threw things at them, but some morons decided they wanted to fight and Corey Glover stopped the show immediately. He was like, "Look, we're a long way from home and we're not here to provide the soundtrack for a riot. You guys want to watch or get into a fight, and we're done. You guys want to see and hear us play, stop the dumb shyt," or something to that effect. There were some American GIs (besides me and my buddies) in the crowd, as well as some German anti-racist skinheads. There also was no more BS, and a great show. We drove 2 1/2 hours *one way* on a Thursday night to see them...which meant getting back to base in time for about an hour's sleep before the "customary" Friday 5K PT run. We also really wanted to see Living Colour, and would have definitely expressed sincere lack of appreciation for anyone who ruined the concert over some BS.
