Yeah, I can't see Lemmy going for that one at all.  Maybe they did
something to sweeten the deal for them?  I also can't imagine GM
being on a side stage.  I had a feeling that might happen, so I
didn't get tix for either HORDE gig in my area, as I would have been
going mainly for GM.  Last summer, GM and BOC played the same show,
which only had one stage.  GM played over an hour, and BOC about an
hour.  You shoulda been there!
