Former CORROSION OF CORFORMITY Vocalist KARL AGELL Recounts Meeting LEMMY For The First Time - "I Still Have The Glass From The Whiskey He Bought Me"

Tributes continue to appear online as the world says goodbye to Motörhead legend Lemmy, who passed away on December 28th, 2015 at the age of 70 following a brief battle with cancer. Former Corrosion Of Conformity frontman Karl Agell has posted the following message on Facebook:

"So many of us have Lemmy stories. The man, the legend was accessible and super fucking cool to boot. He never forgot the fans... ever. Here's my personal Lemmy story. It was the very first time I met him.

It was 1990 and C.O.C. was just embarking on our first European tour with D.R.I. We were in London, on the verge of kicking things off. Woodroe, Pepper and I decided to leave the hotel and grab a drink down the street. We walked into a random pub and who should we see playing a video game but Lemmy. The place was basically empty. We worked up the nerve to go talk to him. 'Hey, you're Lemmy, man. It's an honor to meet you. We're in a band called Corrosion Of Conformity.' He said, 'I know who you are. You boys have the second greatest logo in the world.' I still have the glass from the whiskey he bought me."

As recently reported, a Finnish dairy company has released a commercial featuring Lemmy that was filmed just weeks before his death in December. The 40-second spot which can be viewed below is a remake of a 1990s Valio milk ad well known in Finland. The new version shows Kilmister exiting a gas station, turning to the camera and saying, "I don't drink milk, and never will … you asshole.”

It was filmed in Helsinki in early December just hours ahead of a Motörhead concert. Valio changed the spot to make it a tribute to Kilmister after he died of cancer on December 28 in Los Angeles.

“This was a magical encounter with a great man and were honored to share with the world."

Valio said Kilmister's managers approved it.

On January 9th, the world came together to celebrate the life of Motörhead frontman Lemmy Kilmister at Forest Lawn Memorial Cemetery in Hollywood, California.

With almost almost 300,000 watching on YouTube and millions more thinking about a man that changed the face of heavy metal. And what a face … an image. An icon. Kinda like James Dean … but for us metalheads, much more of presence in life. Manager Todd Singerman led the ceremony: “Man, I hate using these words in past tense!”

He proceeded to pass the mic to Lemmy’s son Paul: “He had a feeling something was wrong in August. We will know the pain he was in … all of his years he was a stage warrior. Having moved mount everest, the show would go on. He wasn’t just a musician and songwriter … he was a figurehead. He set the bar. It was about keeping it real. Performing was everything to him. He was Lemmy all the time. He wasn’t a poseur. He paid his his dues. Motörhead’s last album was a struggle … it never revealed his frailed health. Born to lose, live to win. He wasn’t religious, but he was profoundly spiritual. He never tolerated anybody talking over music … especially his! Music wasn’t a background to him. Nobody on this earth posed his brand of of humour. He was 100% real. I won the lottery when I got Lemmy. You were perfect. You are on the road to the great great gig in the sky.”

The elite of heavy metal praised the man, the legend, the icon.

Guns N' Roses Slash: “Lemmy was somebody that I feel blessed to be friends with. He was such a a fucking great example of what my peers wanted to be. More integrity than anybody. 100 loyal. All these fine attributes. When I got sober he was so disappointed when I didn’t greet him with a flask of Jack Daniels!”

Judas Priest's Rob Halford: “Over the years we’ve had some amazing times. We always looked forward to seeing the lads! When I was in the the presence of lord Lemmy. I was overwhelmed! As we know, the music lives forever!”

Anthrax' Scott Ian : “Elvis you taught us how to dress, how to look. It was Carl Perkins and Little Richard how to sound. And it was The Beatles who taught us we could to write our own songs. And Lemmy it was you who taught us that we could be fucking real.”

Metallica's Lars Ulrich: “I lived and breathed every note they sang! Lemmy was so hospitable and the ultimate party host. I’ve always cited Motorhead and Lemmy as in the inspiration and the primary reason Metallica exists musically and attitude wise. So thank you Lemmy for shaping who I am today.

Foo Fighter's Dave Grohl: “There is not enough time to tell you what Lemmy meant to me. He’s my person … he’s the one that bridged my love of ACDC and Sabbath and Zeppelin … and my love with GBH, the Ramones and Black Flag.

Lemmy Kilmister died on December 28th at the age of 70 following a brief battle with an aggressive cancer.
