We've just returned from Colwyn Bay Football Club  having watched Mothership who are a brilliant 'Led Zeppelin' live band, they were great and our ears are still buzzing 8) We found out about them as the base player is the mechanic who changed the cambelt on our Focus D)  If you are interested you can see them on Youtube:  mothership channel

Led Zep were the first live band I ever saw. Nebworth 1977 at the tender age of 13, my Mum still thinks I was staying at a friends house!

Can't find the Mothership page Merddin, could you post a link please?

One of my few claims to fame was a good while back (mid 80's) walking into a hotel bar in Manchester at lunchtime and seeing the whole band stood in front of me. I spent the whole of my lunch hour talking and drinking with them.  Despite their expected continuous downing of Jack Danielsand non stop smoking  they were all (maybe less so Animal) really polite and eloquent. Quite happy to sign my beer mat with autographs and chat away.

Met Rick and Francis from Quo a year or two back. Same there, both very well spoken and charming.

Last time I was able to drink actually with Motorhead was in Stafford in 1980 ....I am hoping that might happen again in 5 weeks time in my beloved Llandudno.
Lemmy is 65 on Xmas day this year.   All those bottles of Jack Daniels have preserved him quite well!

Tudno FM and North Wales Housing are hosting a Battle of the Bands later this month (October).

It’s taking place on the October 29 at Eirias Park, and it’s all part of a young persons information day for North Wales Housing.

If you have a band and want to take part, you must email andrew.stuart@tudnofm.co.uk or call 01492 863190, and register before the 22nd of October.

The judges on the day will decide the best, which will be featured on Tudno FM 107.8. The lucky band will win a studio session to record some of your tracks!

Before Sid Vicious was in the Sex Pistols he asked Lemmy Kilmister to teach him to play bass. But only after a few days Lemmy gave up and said "Sid, you can't play bass" Sid replied "No, I know" and walked away. A couple of months later Lemmy met Sid at The Speakeasy in London.

Sid Vicious: "Hey Lemmy, guess what! I’m in The Pistols."

Lemmy: "What do you mean?"

Sid Vicious: "I’m the bass player in the Pistols. It’s great, innit?"

Lemmy: "You can’t play bass, Sid."

Sid Vicious: "Yeah, yeah, I know, but I’m in the fu**ing pistols!"
