Motörhead continue touring

After Lemmy’s most recent spate of health problems threatened to derail another tour, Motorhead are ready to resume their North American tour. This morning (Sept. 7), the band gave an update on the status of their frontman.

“St. Louis, here we come!” Motörhead wrote on their Facebook page. “The wait is over and the Doc has spoken. Lemmy had a lung infection (exacerbated by that Denver altitude) which has now been taken care of. Subsequently, Lemmy’s ready to give it a go in St. Louis at The Pageant theater on Tuesday, Sept 8th where Motorhead will continue the 40th Anniversary tour in support of their new album ‘Bad Magic’.”

“Amidst all the wonderful support Lemmy has received, many have rightfully said he owes us nothing as he has given us everything. We, however, owe Lemmy something…our total respect for his fierce, single-minded and beautifully stubborn determination to continue burning asphalt, playing rock’n’roll and live where he has always been most comfortable – on the road!”
