Get the Mowhawkmug. Lemmy, the nickname for Ian Fraser Kilmister, is a singer and bassist for the speed metal band Motorhead.
Lemmy has been the only consistent member of Motorhead since the first lineup was created in 1975. Over the years several musicians have filled the spots at the drums and guitar but Lemmy stayed consistent.
Lemmy also has had several reoccuring problems with drugs. In fact in 2005 he openly stated that he believed that heroin use should be legalized, saying that it would eliminate the drug dealers from society. Lemmy has made other controversial statements regarding drugs even when he was a member of Hawkwind.
