Brainstorm

I think it's fair to say that the Lemmy Kilmister tribute night is now an official tradition. Since the Motorhead kingpin died in late 2015, there has been an annual cancer fundraiser at House of Targ, with local and not-so-local groups playing their favourite tunes from his lengthy career in music. First up were GOAT - or GOATerhead, as the dubbed themselves for the occasion - with some Motorhead tunes. Here's Ohio!

Next up, Hamilton's Xanadu, with some more Motorhead action. I gather there's a connection with doomsters Astral Witch.
