Lemmy Interviewed by Kerrang!

Kerrang! Radio recently did an interview with Lemmy and it's pretty good, but I wanted to highlight the following question:

Kerrang! Radio: What other musicians would you count as good friends over the years?

Lemmy: Dave Grohl, he's a great guy. Phil Campbell from MOTÖRHEAD, he's been with me for 25 years so he must be a good friend. Tim, my roadie, Dan, my personnel guy, Eddie, our tour manager, the whole band is a family, and crew. Dave Edmunds, I wouldn't say I was a great friend of Dave Edmunds but he gave me a lot of inspiration and he was a good friend, he did the first four tracks that MOTÖRHEAD ever did, he produced them, he was great. Mogsy from the ROCKIN' VICARS, he was funny, obviously the meanest man in the world and he learned it from his father. I went round his house once and I said, "Can I use your toilet?" and he said, "Yeah, it's at the top of the stairs on the left," and I was half way up the stairs and his dad skidded out the front room, "Only use four sheets!" It's terrible, isn't it? Steve Vai, he played on one of our albums, and Slash, I get on really good with Slash.

We reported here that Mikkey Dee will miss some of the upcoming Motorhead tour because he will be doing a Swedish Reality show. I wonder if this has caused some tension in Motorhead since he doesn't list him specifically as a good guy. He name checks Phil, but not Mikkey.

That's it! We are starting the rumor based on one quote, Lemmy hates Mikkey Dee for doing the reality show.
