You have no idea how good he is.

My mum knew The Beatles, right?

She used to go out

with John Lennon, didn't she?

Obviously, trying to get

to Paul McCartney through him!

No, she lost her virginity

to John Lennon.

The story that I've been told

by my mum is that George liked her.

He would shyly, coyly look at her

when she walked past the bus stop

and George would be standing there.

She wasn't interested in George.

And then, you know, I don't know.

Maybe if she had been interested

in George,

it would have lasted longer

than with John!

- It didn't last long with John.

- Nope. It didn't.

But she always talked about it.

She was very smitten.

But she called you after Paul

not John, so...

Yeah, that's a strange one.

She must have been thinking

about Paul when she was with John.

Perhaps she called him Paul

and that's why it didn't last.

"Oh, I love you, Paul." "What?!"

Yeah! Paul!

- We swapped girlfriends twice.

- Yeah, we did.

At the Limelight

and then at Stringfellows, wasn't it?

We swapped girlfriends one night

and did it again two months later.

Well, a lot of chicks like that -

the old man and the son as well.

It's like screwing the daughter

and the mother at the same time.

- Yeah, that kind of thing.

- Yeah.

Doesn't it ever feel

too cluttered?

Yeah, all the time.

What do you think?

What are you doing?

Shooting my trash can?

F*** off, man! You better not

put that in the f***ing movie.

- Where's the trash can?

- There.

- I was looking at that.

- At what?

I don't know. Whatever that is.

It's a f***ing Domino's bargain list.

One of my favourite memories

of my dad

is when I was six years old,

and I'd just learnt

to play three or four chords.

He came to visit and as

he was leaving, he picked up a guitar

and he started just playing

by the front door, like E major,

and we just jammed on that one chord

for about 20 minutes.

He was looking right into my face,

right into my eyes,

and just egging me on,

like, "This is the rhythm, the feel.

This is how you do it."

It was probably the third time

I had ever seen him,

so that was a major event in my life.

The nicest thing he ever said to me

was very recently

when you asked him, "What is

the most precious thing in this room?"

And he said, "My son."

I was kind of blown away by that.

I wasn't expecting that response.

I wasn't thinking he would say that.

But that was amazing.

It was wonderful.

Thank you! This is my son, Paul.

Eh? Not bad for an only child!

D Lucky thing for you, babe

I'm so lazy

d But I'm gonna pull your trigger d

- Go take it to him, Scott.

- That's some size. That's cool.

Yeah!

I present this tank.

- Isn't that bad?

- Yeah, it is.

I served several years in the US army

as a special operations soldier

in Ranger regiment and Special Forces,

and I had served

in Iraq and Afghanistan.

I know Lemmy

is a big military history buff.

My kind of rock-and-roll

connective tissue to the military

was probably Motrhead.

You know, I would wear

Motrhead T-shirts over there.

In a way kind of stating

my own individuality.

Not to glorify war or say,

"War is really cool," or whatever.

It is what it is. It's a function

of the human condition.

But Motrhead is good

go-to-war music.

He's a World War I

and World War II historian.

"1916" was their first

Grammy-nomination record

about World War I.

And he's a collector

of war memorabilia, in general.

I remember watching

a BBC documentary with him

and he's showing me this airplane,

this Messerschmitt.

I'm trying to remember what it was

and he's going, "That's wrong."

I go, "They must have

researched the sh*t."

Brings out three books to show me

that plane wasn't even built then.

Everybody collects something.

The drummer in my old band

used to collect elephants.

He had elephants

all over his f***ing apartment.

I think I have a collection

that might warrant more interest!

This is a Damascus sword.

See the blade?

That's Damascus steel.

This is a first model dagger.

It's quite pretty, I think.

Purely decorational.

These are Masonic daggers.

Look at that, huh?

That's a nice piece, too.

This is from Toledo and not Ohio.

Look at this f***ing thing!

- What is that?

- British.

That's British.

I think it's from the first war.

And this is a German bayonet.

That's seen action.

I always liked the workmanship

and the designs, you know.

They were the last great knife makers,

the last great sword makers.

It's a craft in Germany

that has largely disappeared now.

Even a lot of the American swords

were made in Germany.

In the Civil War, there were a lot

of German swords used in that war.

Up to the First World War, obviously.

I got Argentinean stuff.

I got Yugoslav, I got Croat,

Slovakian.

How long has it taken you

to amass this collection?

Years and years, right?

When I came over to the States,

I had nothing, you know.

So there we are. Come on.

- I thought I'd dress up for you.

- Yeah, you look good.

- Good to meet you.

- And you.

- Nice to meet you.

- How are you doing?

We pulled it all out. Check it out.

- MP40, G43, K98.

- That's a nice gun, that.

That's a 2519.

That's the chassis of 2-22, isn't it?

- 251.

- 251?

- There's the Hetzer.

- What was the chassis?

- A 38. A Czech chassis.

- A Czech one.

- Skoda.

- Right.

- Did you have to restore it?

- It's got the original engine in it.

There you go.

This is the smallest tank

that the Germans made.

It was made

actually in Czechoslovakia,

based on a Skoda design

from before the war.

This was called a Hetzer.

It's a 38 chassis.

This is a big gun

for a tank this size.

This is a 75mm

armour-piercing gun, you know.

This would stop anything,

more or less.

They would bury this tank

in the ground.

So all that would be visible

would be this here.

Just the gun

on the top of the tank.

So they would wait for you

to come along and just kill you!

Wars are the most interesting times.

Shows the best and worst in people.

In war you get to find out

who your real friends are.

Ask any of those boys

coming back from Iraq, you know.

Anybody who's watching

and thinks you're a Nazi,

what do you want to say to them?

Well, I've had

six black girlfriends so far.

So I'm one of the worst Nazis

you've ever met, right?

Lmagine going to Nuremberg

and introducing my girlfriend

to the Fhrer.

Yeah, I don't think so.

I just dress how I like to dress.

I don't ask anybody else to do it,

you know.

It's a free country, supposedly.

If the Israeli army

had the best uniforms,

I'd collect them, but they don't.

So there you go. I can't help it.

It's ridiculous to think

that I could be a Nazi.

I'm about as far from it

as you could get.

Fire!

- How was that, Lemmy?

- That was great.

Hawkwind were really ahead

of their time.

I worship Hawkwind.

That's some genius music.

They were like a prog-rock group

that punks were allowed to like.

D I just took a ride
