Number One!<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; We recently told you  about Mot\u00f6rhead wine. (Their Shiraz got great reviews: \u201cA fairly grown-up wine \u2013  can taste the fruitiness. A panel favorite.\u201d  And \u201cA red wine that\u2019s \u2018Aces.\u2019\u201d)   Now comes Mot\u00f6rhead Vodka. It\u2019s a premium, 80 proof Vodka made from 100% locally  grown wheat that has been distilled and bottled in Sweden.  It has a rich,  full-bodied and complex character, with a light and fruity aftertaste. One  reviewer said, \u201cThat\u2019s how women sometimes describe Lemmy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; In Duff  McKagan\u2019s ESPN.com weekly column, he recently wrote about his band, Loaded,  opening for Mot\u00f6rhead in Germany. He says, \u201cBeing here on the road with  Mot\u00f6rhead is to get an awe-inspiring peek into legend. Their consistancy remains  a sort of explosive touchstone for all of us who need to be reminded of what is  real and true and honest about rock music. Lemmy is still more on top of his  game than five 20-year olds combined. If you get a chance to see this band,  don\u2019t even try to think twice about it. They are the very best of what it is all  about\u2026it\u2019s like going to rock and roll church.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Mot\u00f6rhead were recently  nominated for a Shorty Award, honoring the best of social media, recognizing the  people and organizations producing real-time short form content across the  social Web.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Lemmy performed with Camp Freddy on their last 2011 show,  which took place at the at the world famous Roxy on the Sunset Strip on the day  before Lemmy\u2019s 66th birthday.
