"Motorhead is over, of course. Lemmy was Motorhead. We won't be doing any more tours or anything. And there won't be any more records."
Lemmy, who celebrated his 70th birthday on Christmas Eve, had received his diagnosis, an "extremely aggressive cancer", only two days prior to hus sudden death.
The last city to host Motörhead was Berlin, earlier this month. Despite already suffering from his illness, Lemmy battled his way through to the end of the group's Europe tour. The drummer continues:
"[Lemmy] was terribly gaunt, he spent all his energy on stage and afterwards he was very, very tired. It's incredible that he could even play, that he could finish the Europe tour. It was only 20 days ago. Unbelievable."
A day after the diagnosis, Lemmy said "I had a good run, fuck it" before he went to bed to go to sleep. He would never wake up again.
