My thanks to John for this guest entry. Whilst on the train the other day he showed me an article about a forthcoming concert by Motorhead at Covent Garden. The article quoted Lemmy, if I recall correctly, saying that if Motorhead moved in next door to you, they're so loud that your grass would die.
This is interesting, not in the least because I don't think they moved in to number 6 last year but my neighbour's grass certainly looked dead for most of the summer.
The review of their concert has another great quote "The wonderful thing about Motorhead is how quiet it is when they stop.". Apparently they gave free earplugs out at the concert. And some people want to ban boxing as it's dangerous. Pah!
