Rock Legend Lemmy Kilmister Is Going To Have His Ashes Enshrined At His Favorite Bar

We all know the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame is a complete joke, so what better way is there for a legendary rockstar to be immortalized than having his ashes enshrined at his favorite bar?

None… none better…

That's exactly the treatment late Motörhead frontman and human embodiment of rock ‘n’ roll Lemmy Kilmister is getting.

The man whose growling vocals and even more growling bass tone (a signature Rickenbacker 4004 bass into a Marshall head he named "Murder One." How could that not sound amazing?) is present on classic songs like "Ace of Spades," "Metropolis," and even wrestler Triple H's intro song, "The Game" was known to hang out at West Hollywood's Rainbow Bar & Grill sipping his signature Jack Daniels and Coke which in some circles is now called a "Lemmy."

This will be part of the festivities for Motörhead's new signature whiskey.

Kilmister's ashes will also be kept at the Rock City music venue in Nottingham, England. Some will be part of a bust of the late rockstar that will be unveiled at the Bloodstock music festival later this year, per Rolling Stone.

It may sound like an odd tribute, but for a rock and metal legend like Lemmy, it's apropos.

Lemmy died in late December 2015 after being diagnosed with cancer. I saw Motörhead on tour just months before that at the House of Blues in Orlando (weird place to see a show by the way. It's at Disney World so when the concert lets out you've got throngs of metalheads yelling "Motörhead!" as young children dressed as princesses and pirates walk by them eating ice cream. It's strange).

Anthrax and Crobot opened and while it was kind of obvious Lemmy wasn't 100 percent, he was still up there playing and singing like a fiend.

I was always pumped I got to see him play live before he died, and it's cool to see that the legend of Lemmy Kilmister is still growing over eight years after his death.
