Only time I saw them was in that big tour:  Judas Priest headlining,
Alice Cooper, Motorhead and Metal Church [in reverse order--maybe
another group in there somewhere?]  Operation Rock and Roll an
ill-titled concert that sought to piggyback on the lamentable
popularity of the Gulf War.  Lucky for me, it was an outdoor show, so
Motorhead's sound was tamed a bit.  Lemmy is amazing--one of the
best frontmen I've ever seen.  This would have been in support   of
1916.  I've got Overnight Sensation, a CMC disc, and I'd recommend it
well...
