Every member of Motorhead (including ex members) plus Phil Lynott went on stage to play “Motorhead”. Here’s what Lemmy wrote about the night in his book.
“Phil Lynott came on stage because he just couldn’t resist it. We were doing ‘Motorhead’, but he had no idea what he was playing(Eddie Clarke was over there, going ‘E!’ - he didn’t remember, either)! Phil was a good friend of mine, but he’d never heard of our signature tune. We were recording those shows, and Vic Maile did a special mix of it with Phil’s bass up front and gave it to him, just to embarrass him.”
Hey, remember 10 years ago when Marriage Equality was upheld and a bunch of cis LGB people decided that they got theirs so fuck everyone else, but especially trans people?
Remember when they acted like trans rights being the next big target meant that their rights were safe and they decided to either a) check out, keep their heads low, and allow trans people to die on the alter; or b) actively joined the fight against trans rights in a misguided attempt to get in good with their oppressors.
This is a wake up call to those people. You aren’t safe either, you never were. Once they started winning victories against us trans folks they were going to come after you, but this time with the cultural momentum (and 3 more SCOTUS Justices) they didn’t have last time.
Lawrence v Texas is on the chopping block, you better pay fucking attention.

But apparently we’re the “groomers.”
Also I guess you’re going to have to get your chromosomes checked before you get married in Iowa now.
