MOTORHEAD
- Lemmy, Phil Campbell and Mikkey Dee - for existing in this universe. Thanks for making me deaf!No Sleep 'Til Brixton 1997:
This is how this site all started. Thanks to Oliver's girlfriend - for not liking Motorhead. Without her dropping out, the spare place would not have been there for me to go backstage! Oliver Cornfield (Motorheadbangers World web-site) - for inviting me and for putting up with me for the whole day! Lemmy - for having time to spend with us and for corrupting us! Todd Singerman (band's manager) - for arranging our backstage privilege.Brixton 1998 Article: This is how it continued. Thanks to Lemmy, Jim Voxx (Skew Siskin), Wayne Cossins (tour manager), Nigel Moore (friend of the band and contributor to fan club), Alan Burridge (Motorheadbangers World Fan Club) and Dave "Hobsy" Hilsden (tour manager) for contacting me and arranging backstage invitations for Oliver Cornfield and myself, to make our articles possible. Chris Sage for some extra information that's been useful for this report. Thanks also to Phil Campbell and Mikkey Dee.
SKEW SISKIN - especially Jim Voxx and Nina C. Alice for continuing to send me vast amounts of information for the "Special Guest: Skew Siskin" section. Thanks for their constant contact and humour!
Ace Trump (Official Motorhead web-site) - for providing album news and other information useful to this site, for allowing me to use a logo from his web-site http://www.imotorhead.com and especially for his encouragement and support in this project.
Oliver Cornfield for inspiring me into creating this site.
Tim Shockley for providing me with the scan of the Snake Bite Love cover prior to the album release and for band information and his support throughout.
MOTORHEADBANGERS Alan Burridge, Nigel Moore, Robert Kiewik, Mick Stevenson, Chris Sage, Oliver Kaempf, Thomas Huls, Olaf Ludwig, Patrick von Schuckmann, Klaus Fabry, Bernd Adler, Ralf Hartmann, Shuhei Hasagawa - regulars I'd meet at the gigs!

Julia Hollingsworth for all her help with various things.
Silvia Grandio Luque for all her help with various things.

Vanessa Warwick, Ronnie Townsend and Geraldine Geraghty from Chrysalis TV. Thanks for your organising of the "God Save The Queen" video shoot and 25th Anniversary gig.
Brian Pearl from CMC International, for providing advanced preview of "Everything Louder Than Everyone Else" live CD.
Ken Karnig for the Morbid Angel information given in the Trivia section.
Saquib Qureshi scanned the initial set of photos for me - apologies to his father who had to wait long to get collected from the train station while I held Saquib at gunpoint 'til the scans had been done.
All animations were produced by myself apart from the Official Motorhead web-site graphic link.
logo used on titlepage was taken from the Official Motorhead Website.
Icon I created from a scan of Motorhead's "Sacrifice" album cover. The scan was found on Scott's Home page prior to when I had access to a scanner.
Thanks to Ace Trump (Official Motorhead Website) and Scott Andrews for their kind permission in allowing me to use symbols and logos from their web pages.
The icon of Lemmy giving us the finger is from a photo that I took of him. Original picture is in this site's Photo Gallery.
The background photo used on this site's title page is a photo of him taken by myself. I forgot to use my flash when I took the snap (and Lemmy took the piss out of me when he noticed this!) and I wasn't happy when the photo came out all dark. Then I realised it still looks effective with Lemmy as a sinister silhouette image and that it'll make a good backdrop - as my friend Paul Long would say when I discussed this in the pub, "Don't give me this arty-farty bullshit, just go to the bar and get me a drink!"
Animations of Motorhead "Snaggletooth" symbol with flashing eyes and Sacrifice with gnashing jaws: I did those myself using original scans of Motorhead album covers found at Scott's website.
The Lemmy Zombie animation in the Trivia section was created from an original photograph I had taken of him. He'll turn in his grave when he finds out what I'm doing to his images.
Thanks to Kerrang! magazine and various interviews from other sources (I'll list their sources when I dig them out) for the facts featured in the trivia section.
