I am really surprised there aren't more comments about Lemmys passing. I guess this website is really more about equipment than music.

Taters, I don't think there's a big base for heavy rock here.  I could be wrong about that.
I'm a guitar teacher and I get to hear a broad range of styles and artists I might not otherwise be exposed to.  In over 30 years of my work I'm not sure I've ever had a Motorhead tune brought in by a student.
+1 tostadosunidos. I appreciate heavy rock, given at least a trace of avant garde wit(e.g. Soundgarden, Urge Overkill, Queens of the Stone Age, Husker Du, Alice in Chains-- maybe even Anthrax in a certain mood.) But Motorhead will be remembered as a mere head-banging asterisk IMHO.
