Tonight on BBC4 A film about Lemmy Kilminster at 9.40pm. I recommend this film having seen bits of it. Its a great rock and roll film.

It was good wasnt it, I saw afew of my mates being interviewed as talking heads outside of one of their concerts which one hasnt shut up about all morning. Id love a drink with Lemmy, talk about rock and roll, he also likes his country music too.

Ive got quite afew albums of theirs, Loved motorhead for years, well since I saw them as a nipper on the Young ones back in 1984. My favourite track of theirs though is a recent one called "1916" about the 1st world war. Its really slow and done as a ballad, but the words are really poignant, heres a limnk to it on you tube. youtu.be/EqFoqtpUFY8Click the link as I dont knwo how to embed.

I used to play alot of Ramones stuff at the shop I worked in, our Saturday girl liked punk and I used to educate her on the finest points of it. The customers would complain alot though.

It was the first time the Specials played L.A. i think? i walked to Barneys Beanery ( bar/resturant that does English beer, and musician hangout) well after asking some guys with tashes which way ( west hollywood -bunch of tough gays) i found it ... walked in and Johnny was there with a few friends - well he suddenly starts shouting over about "that guy aint so tough" etc etc.. i just ignored him and went to the bar... I guess he knew who i was and didnt like my polictics? I didnt know of his right wing polictics at the time..

Blank.
Well I never knew that so many so called rock stars had right wing tendancies. There was somethign on the radio about alot of the new york punk rockers really being card carrying republicans (if Ive got the right party?, I get confused between the democrats and repubs).
