    A statement issued by his bandmate Mikkey Dee said: "I'm having to drink eight bottles of Gatorade as well as water just to get through these shows. I'm close to passing out and there's Lemmy sweating his ass off, drinking his Jack and Coke."

    Motorhead manager Todd Singerman added: "The simple truth is Lemmy's the classic rock 'n' roll juggernaut who has proudly defied human logic for decades, but even juggernauts need a bit of maintenance once in a while."

    Lemmy will turn 60 on Christmas Eve of this year, he is aware that his lifestyle may send him to an early grave and has already planned his funeral.

    In an interview a couple of years ago he said: "Our albums will all be played in chronological order at a deafeningly loud volume and no one would be able to leave until they had listened to every single one."
