Video: MOTÖRHEAD's LEMMY Performs Coin Toss At LA KISS' First-Ever Home Game

April 6, 2014

MOTÖRHEAD's Lemmy Kilmister performed the official coin toss at LA KISS' first-ever home game yesterday (Saturday, April 5) at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California. Check out video footage of his appearance below.

STEEL PANTHER, widely considered one of the hottest heavy-metal bands out of Hollywood since MÖTLEY CRÜE, GUNS N' ROSES and POISON ruled the Sunset Strip, put on a special halftime performance in front of 12,045 fans at last night's event.

"We wanted a football team, but this is a different type of football," 47-year-old KISS fan John Richards told the Los Angeles Times at last night's game. "This is KISS football."

He added: "I think 95% are KISS fans and 5% know something about arena football. If it would have been L.A. anything else, I wouldn't have been here. I wouldn't have known anything was going on."

MOTÖRHEAD canceled a handful of shows on its European festival tour in August 2013 after Lemmy suffered a haematoma (where blood collects outside of a blood vessel). The news of Lemmy's latest medical issue followed reports that he was also fitted with a defibrillator because of heart problems. The band also postponed a European headlining tour which was scheduled to kick off in November.
