Former Motörhead guitarist Phil Campbell has revealed that he and bandmate Mikkey Dee never got the chance to say goodbye to Lemmy before the legendary frontman passed away in 2015. Lemmy, who died on December 28 of that year aged 70 following a short battle with cancer, had led Motörhead since its inception in 1975, and his passing signalled the end of the band for good.
In a new interview with Myglobalmind (as transcribed by Blabbermouth), Campbell explains that he and Motörhead drummer Dee knew that something was "not going well" when the band began cancelling shows due to Lemmy's ailing health, but had no idea just how bad things had got.
