On a ten-point scale of difficulty, opening for Motörhead against Lemmy’s wishes without him knowing about it ranks around 13/10. Years later, at fucking Dave Grohl’s forty-fifth birthday, he was like, ‘It’s my birthday, I want to fucking play the Staples Center’, one of those big fucking megadomes in L.A., and he was like, 'I’m gonna throw a forty-fifth birthday party for myself and I’m gonna have the concert of the century.' And Lemmy was there and we didn’t mention the fucking thing that went down, but it was rad to see him again.“ one two.’ then Kyle just fucking strummed the opening riff and we played Roadie. Jack says, “We were like, ‘Fuck it, here we go!’ We went out there and I did some more roadie-ing and then I took the mic and went, ‘Check, check. There’s a bit of very genuine, sentimental laughter between the guys as they describe running on stage and opening the show without Lemmy realising it was happening. “Whatever the case was, I was like, ‘Fuck! Dude, we came all the way out here, I’m in my fucking muscle suit, we can’t go on, we can’t open if he doesn’t want us to!' Motörhead’s manager was like, ‘Just go, just go. “He might’ve been drinking a bit,” offers Kyle. He’s not gonna let us do the thing!’ I think what it really was was that he was just pissed that the show didn’t sell out and he didn’t want to admit that we actually were helping.” “Then we get the word that Lemmy said, ‘No! I don’t want nobody opening! Fuck sake! Who the fuck? Who said OK to this? No! Absolutely fucking not! I don’t need ‘em, I don’t want ‘em!’ We could use that bump to sell some tix!’ So we got the gig and we got there and I’m out there fucking tying wires and doing shit and pointing to roadies and going, (gravelly biker voice), ‘Hey, are we movin’ this shit or what?’ The audience doesn’t really know that it’s fucking me because I’ve got this muscle suit and I’m in character.”Īs well as things were going, they were about to come crashing down. “Our manager talked to Lemmy’s manager and Lemmy’s manager was like, (gruff, Cockney accent) 'Havin’ trouble selling tickets here in L.A. In 2012, the band toured the US as part of Gigantour and later the Mayhem Festival. With the song released in 2012, this would likely have been Motörhead’s Mashow at Club Nokia, in Los Angeles, which was their only headlining L.A. And also, I want to pretend to be their roadie.” and we asked our manager to see if he could get us a spot to open for Motörhead.
The plan was that Motörhead was playing in L.A. Next, we needed a big rock band where I could come out and be a roadie - just be part of the road crew. So I got a muscle suit so I could look like a fucking badass roadie. “We just need to play it somewhere,” explains Jack, “and I want to be the roadie. With the song done (it wouldn't officially appear until Tenacious D's 2012 album, Rize Of The Fenix), they needed to take it one step further.
