Three years after passing away just days after his 70th birthday, Ian “Lemmy” Kilmister, world-renowned frontman and bassist of Motörhead and other projects, still casts an enormous shadow over the music world. Lemmy had just celebrated his life with a huge birthday party in his adopted home of Los Angeles in 2015 when he received a fatal diagnosis of prostate cancer along with cardiac arrhythmia and congestive heart failure. He passed just two days later. In the time since he passed away, there have been countless tributes, awards, stages at festivals cover songs, a statue at his favorite bar The Rainbow on the Sunset Strip in Hollywood, and his signature drink, The Jack And Coke was even renamed The Lemmy permanently. As sad as we are that the music giant and global rock emissary is three years gone, we are glad to have had him for the time we did and the lasting impact of his music and life. Join us in sending our hails to the great beyond for Lemmy!
