Three-piece tribute to Motörhead and Lemmy Kilmister, fronted by Rob Campbell, playing the band's classic era and later material.
Motörheadache play Esquires on Tuesday 29 December, a three-piece tribute to Lemmy Kilmister and Motörhead. They're fronted by lifelong fan Rob Campbell, who takes on the bass and vocals. He plays a custom-built 'Rickenbastard' bass made by Lemmy's own luthier, fitted with the pickups and tuners taken from Lemmy's own instrument, alongside a custom 'Murder One' Marshall Super Bass.
The setlist covers the 'Fast Eddie Clarke' era from 1975 to 1982, with 'Ace of Spades', 'Bomber', 'Overkill', 'Iron Fist', 'The Hammer', 'Damage Case' and 'Motörhead' all in the mix. They don't stop there, though; they also pull from the years 1983 through 2015, and include 'Victory or Die' from the band's final studio album, Bad Magic.
On stage, Campbell is joined by Al Leach on guitar and 'Dirty' Dave Nutter on drums. Between the early records and the later material, the set runs through the whole stretch of Motörhead's career, from the early days with Clarke right up to the final album.
