MOTÖRHEAD With MATT SORUM: Austin Footage, Review Available

September 22, 2009

Fan-filmed video footage of MOTÖRHEAD's September 20, 2009 performance at Stubb's in Austin, Texas can be viewed below.

A review of the show is available at Austin360.com.

Former GUNS N' ROSES and current VELVET REVOLVER drummer Matt Sorum is filling in for MOTÖRHEAD's regular drummer, Mikkey Dee, on the band's current tour so that Dee can take part in "Kändisdjungeln", the Swedish version of the popular U.K. and U.S. reality-TV show "I'm a Celebrity…Get Me out of Here!".

"There was a breakdown in communication, really," MOTÖRHEAD frontman Lemmy Kilmister told Noisecreep. "Our management didn't know that he'd signed up for this when they booked the tour. We didn't want him to have to cancel, they might have sued him or something."

Sorum made his first appearance in Washington D.C. on September 8, after only one rehearsal. "He's rehearsing by watching live DVD," Kilmister said a couple of days before the gig, clearly not worried. "He's a good drummer, he's a professional."

Noisecreep asked Lemmy if he would like to appear on the reality TV show, too? "No, no thank you. I've seen the British one, and it's not for me," he said diplomatically. "Well, you've got to be polite haven't you. But, yeah, it's fucking boring as hell, God damn it!"

The first episode of "Kändisdjungeln" aired on September 11.
