Has "life" finally started to catch up with Lemmy...?
« on: January 24, 2014, 10:03:53 AM »
Just had news that Motorhead have had to cancel their Euro tour rescheduled dates, so that's two tours cancelled back-to-back...

Lemmy has diabetes and a pacemaker now fitted, has reputedly stopped smoking, and trying to cut the spirits and soft drinks out by substituting it with two bottles of wine a day...

Lemmy's diabetes issues...

I heard the same. Not looking good.

Touring is rough on you, too, even if you're Lemmy.

Lemmy must also demonstrate the path of moderation in order to keep spreading the gospel of rock and roll. He really FEELS his role as "Godfather of Rock/Metal" and gives pieces of fatherly advice between songs during shows and has since the 90's. Give up to him; he's the real deal, and being real means that he is still as human as the rest of us, but he is also Lemmy.

 I hope his health improves, but two bottles of wine a day is cutting back? Life catches up even to the best of us. One of the nicest "stars" I have ever meet. I wish him the best.

His manager talks about the sugar content of the wine but that sure isn't the only problem. Some people build up a huge tolerance to alcohol with little outward effect but two bottles a day is doing a number on his insides.
