Never heard of the guy.

Never heard of him?

And him being a great connoisseur of our beloved hobby?

Just look at the authentic detail on this SS officer's NCO pilot uniform, affiliated to the 17th/21st Lancers.

[PMan]

Are those cancerous or pre-cancerous lesions on the left side of his face?

[Bob Hritz]

He must be buying from Chris Farlowe, rocker and militaria dealer!

Wonder what the Third Reich would have done with this fellow (wonder if he ever though about that)!

people take this hobby to serious at times, its all just old military stuff and nothing else. See you in August Lemmy at the Masters of Metal Tour with Heaven and Hell.

Chris still has an antiques shop. Sells furniture etc. now, though. More PC.

Not surprisingly, the shop's called 'Out of Time'.

[Robin Lumsden]

People take this hobby too seriously at times.

Amen to that.

There's a famous photo of Jimmy Page on stage wearing an SS officer's visor. I think he's a collector as well. He's all into castles and symbolism. He must love Wewelsburg. Led Zep is OK, but Hendrix rules. Doubtful he collected Third Reich stuff, but he was rumored to have an SS attributed lava lamp.

....an SS attributed lava lamp.

Chris Farlowe opened an antique shop, but I think Sid Vicious went into the laundry business......................

WTF??? Swastika laundry.... lololol Now i have seen everything!!
Lemmy is a total mental in retrospect, not too many people would be abloe to get away with it BUT he's just that pissed up and consantly insane that it all slips under the radar....
It's all in the lyrics

"If you like to gamble, I tell you I'm your man
You win some, lose some, all the same to me
The pleasure is to play, makes no difference what you say
I don't share your greed, the only card I need is
The Ace Of Spades

Playing for the high one, dancing with the devil,
Going with the flow, it's all the game to me,
Seven or Eleven, snake eyes watching you,
Double up or quit, double stake or split,
The Ace Of Spades

You know I'm born to lose, and gambling's for fools,
But that's the way I like it baby,
I don't wanna live for ever,
And don't forget the joker!

Pushing up the ante, I know you've got to see me,
Read 'em and weep, the dead man's hand again,
I see it in your eyes, take one look and die,
The only thing you see, you know it's gonna be,
The Ace Of Spades"

[ETN]

Lemmy is just having fun which is something this hobby now desperately lacks.

[N.C. Wyeth]

Amen to that.

O.K. fellas - I see your point. Have some fun - I guess we all need it every so often . . .

But I've got to admit, I'd like to see more photos along with the strange euphamisms and goofy lyrics.
