Never got to see Motorhead unfortunately but Lemmy was a regular for a long time at The Rainbow Bar & Grill on Sunset in Hollywood.
Not sure if you knew that. He was always so accessible to his fans and others alike. What a totally cool dude/rockstar.

Been to the Starwood (regular venue for all the up & coming bands as much so as The Whisky & Troubadour) several times and seen pre 1st. Lp Van Halen (again) w/ Smile farewell to the Starwood show, pre 1st. Lp Motley Crue and others. Smile we're excellent. The bass player played his bass so hard that he kept breaking strings lol. Not easy to break bass strings I'm sure you know.
Sure was bummed when the place closed down for good. I remember a time when I seen Motley Crue's pre 1st. lp show again this time at the Troubadour in Hollywood and they sucked sooooo bad they got boo'd off stage. They were drunk and sloppy as fuck.
Another time I was at the Troubadour to see Racer X w/ Paul Gilbert (smokin' guitarist out of GIT) and the venue was heavily smoked out and my back was killing me from standing for so long that I went out front to get some fresh air and stretch my back, out front the sidewalk was empty and out comes Vince Neal (Motley singer) wearing faded jeans and a long white T-shirt and we were standing together and he proceeded to tell me that he was waiting for a cab to bring him to go record his 1st. Lp. I forget how I responded probably said something like "wayyyy cool". Van Halen also got ripped out of their heads from drinking that they have had many fans leave their shows due to that they were sloppy as fuck and sucked bad including at the '83 US Festival I was at where they headlined and they sucked so bad 1/2 the audience (10's of 1000's) left while they were playing. Have you been to the Starwood?
Wow, you have been to some incredible shows! No, I have never been to the Starwood, it sounded like a cool place .
I love hearing stories about meeting and seeing Rock Stars before they become famous. I know who Vince Neil is , lol. One of my best friendS in High School Was a huge fan so I painted her an oil painting of Vince Neil. It was my very first oil painting . It looked something like this picture I posted below . I might have a photo of the painting somewhere . She eventually somehow ended up having him sign the painting years later.
He sure does look different today. Lol.3D468E65-5C79-4AA5-85A7-DF89762FFC35.jpeg

That's great to hear. I bet your oil painting came out awesome and your best friend was very happy to receive it especially knowing it came from you. I also bet Vince loved the oil painting as well! Notice later in life when all is said and done ALL rock stars sport mustaches, small beards, goat t's etc...lol.
Wonder why that is?

Random question. Has anyone ever used hempcrete or a hemp insulation? Looking to have our home resided and at the same time insulation installed. Love that it seems super earth friendly stuff.
I know there is denim insulation, recycled fibers.

If it’s earth friendly, I say go for it. Probably costs more than regular, and doesn’t work nearly as well, but hell, do it for the planet
Made in the town Asbesto, Quebec. Little more than regular but does meet or exceed insulation values of standard stuff. Plus no bunny suit required to install. They also make wall board and concrete type building materials from hemp.
