I spent the afternoon driving from Newark NJ to Albany NY. Decided to play some Motorhead on Spotify. One of the songs that came up was a cover of "Breaking The Law" which I've never heard before. Lemmy totally owns the song. While I like the Judas Priest original a lot, Motorhead takes it to another level. These shots are from their December 1985 show at The Rainbow Music Hall. In the early 90's I met Lemmy at a different Rainbow--The Rainbow Bar & Grill in Hollywood. He was sitting to the side of the bar, playing Ms. Pacman. I challenged him to a couple of games. He won. Definitely a cool guy and the quintessential metal dude.
