molan Posted July 22, 2011 Posted July 22, 2011 Looks like a 'must watch/record' to me [url="http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b012p5vv"]http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b012p5vv[/url] Quote
Lozz196 Posted July 22, 2011 Posted July 22, 2011 A must watch for me - been looking forward to it all week. Quote
xilddx Posted July 22, 2011 Posted July 22, 2011 Oh mate! That was so much fun to watch! Really enjoyed it! Thanks for the nod molan! Quote
LiamPodmore Posted July 22, 2011 Posted July 22, 2011 I am wondering how he's still alive. It was quite a good watch actually, and his tone is MONSTROUS! Liam Quote
molan Posted July 22, 2011 Author Posted July 22, 2011 Anyone watch the Hawkwind programme afterwards? I once monitor engineered for them at a gig - absolute hoot & they kicked some serious ass live! Quote
Blademan_98 Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 lol I didn't even know Lemmy was in Hawkwind until I watched that last night! I really should pay more attention..... Quote
lojo Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 I saw hawkwind in 90 or 91 they where one of the best bands I've seen live, it really kicked Missed the Hawkwind doc last night hope that's repeated Quote
Lozz196 Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 I thought the programme was really good, and he comes across as a decent guy. Thing is, and no surprises really, considering his lifestyle, in a few of the parts, he looked like he was dead, but had just not stopped moving yet. Quote
toneknob Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 Caught most of it - brilliant stuff. When's the repeat? Quote

jimbaby Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 Hi I watched the Lemmy movie and enjoyed, also watched the Hawkwind doc, nearly pi$$ed myself when they told you how the name was concieved. Apparently Nik Turner was always clearing his throat (hawking) and doing long musical farts (the wind section). Regards Jim Quote
spongebob Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 Already got the Lemmy film on DVD (loads of great extras if you get it). Recorded the Hawkwind programme, so will tuck into that over the weekend. Sounds like good viewing. Quote
scalpy Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 I thought the first hour of the Lemmy film was interesting but after that it lost it's way. It would appear to be first class rock god you have to be a very unusual person, and all of the people interviewed were martyring themselves to the cause. I've seen and read this before and drawn the same conclusion but it was most evident listening to Lemmy's comments on fatherhood and his attitude to women. And I bet he's got a lot more memorabilia in that crazy apartment that he doesn't show to cameras. Quote
arthurhenry Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 Couldn't help thinking about how much his apartment must stink of cigareete smoke and how all his precious artefacts and daggars must be covered in nicotine stains. Yuck. Quote
paul_5 Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 I laughed out loud at the Scott Ian bits, a class piece of broadcasting. We need 'Anvil' and 'Spinal Tap' next... Quote
daz Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 (edited) The Lemmy documentary was extrememly intseresting to watch. However, for the full effect, I highly reccomend the special [url="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Lemmy-DVD/dp/B00478P25Y/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1311452890&sr=8-1"]DVD[/url] to all fans. with an extra dvd of special extras and gigs.
