Let's get Lemmy knighted!

Following an e-petition campaign, HM Government have responded to the UK rock fans' call to knight rock legend, and Motörhead frontman, Lemmy Kilmister.

Replying online at www.pm.gov.uk, the UK Government stated:


"Lemmy's achievements in music are well known and respected. It is easy to see why so many people want to see his record formally recognised. Your support [of hundreds of signatures] has been carefully noted."


Members of the public can nominate individuals for honours by visiting the UK Honours System website!

Let's do this!

Perhaps, if we all clubbed together we could just buy him one, I think the gov have a deal going at the moment. Buy one get one free, we could give the other to Ozzy if he promises to stay away from reality tv.

Lemmy

Johnny Rotten is over rated. (and a bit of a tit!) but Lemmy should get an award for not being dead. Ozzy too.

Sir Lemmy?

Is this really something that you think he'd want?

My guess is that he'd much rather just get on with being rock n' roll rather than rock n' royalty!
