I once heard a story about the filming of a Probot music video, which featured Motorhead's Lemmy and Dave Grohl. Both Dave and Lemmy were each given Crafts Service tables, where they could get anything they wanted. Dave, being the healthy guy he is had fruit, vegetables and an assortment of healthy juice and tea—basically a full spread that Richard Simmons would be proud of. But on Lemmy's table there were only two things: an unmarked prescription bottle full of pills and a bottle of Jack Daniels. If anyone is going to get his own action figure, I think it should be Lemmy.
If you can't understand what he's saying in this interview, here's a helpful little transcript:
"I had to stand on this platform while the camera went around and did the hologram thing and then they made the model, only smaller," Lemmy said. "They said it's an action figure, and I said, 'So, you're gonna put a dick on it?' They said, 'No.' I said, 'Well, then it's not going to get much action then, is it?' A bad name for it, right?"
I am going to buy this as soon as it's released. And then I'm going to tape a little fake dick on it. Just to make Lemmy happy.
Lemmy is a pretty cool guy. I used to drive limos and he was one of my clients. Whenever his management company needed him to be somewhere, I was usually his driver. I drove the whole group to the Grammys when they won a few years ago. What an interesting nihgt that turned out to be...... I actually drove him to the studio when he did the Probot video.
