Contrary to unsubstantiated reports that MOTÖRHEAD has cancelled the remainder of its European tour, the band will perform at this weekend's Sweden Rock Festival as scheduled, drummer Mikkey Dee has confirmed to the Sweden Rock organizers.
MOTÖRHEAD was forced to call off its June 3, 2007 concert Rockhal in Luxembourg after frontman Lemmy Kilmister reportedly fell ill shortly after soundcheck and had to be taken to a local hospital for evaluation. It was subsequently determined that Lemmy was suffering from an upper respiratory infection and two additional shows in France (June 5 in Limoges and June 6 in Caen) were also cancelled in order to allow Lemmy enough time to rest. However, according to Dee, Lemmy WILL be well enough to perform at Sweden Rock, where former MOTÖRHEAD guitarist "Fast" Eddie Clarke — who is playing the Sweden Rock the same day (Saturday, June 9) with his band FASTWAY — is expected to join MOTÖRHEAD on stage.
Un peu plus rassurant pour ce bon Lemmy
