MOTÖRMUSIC, MOTÖRMANIA, THE MOTÖRMASTERS -- ALL CROSSING OVER INTO COMIC BOOKS.
PIC(S) INFO: Spotlight on front and back cover art to a comic book turned tour programme, featuring MOTÖRHEAD in a storyline titled "Rock Commando." The comic was reportedly produced specifically for the "Over the Top Heavy Metal Brain Damage Party” at Bingley Hall, Staffordshire, UK, on July 26, 1980. Story & artwork by Klaus Bloom.
OVERVIEW: "By 1980 MOTÖRHEAD had become a massive live attraction, selling out everywhere they played. During the summer the band headlined “The Over the Top Heavy Metal Brain Damage Party” (great title for a rock concert) at Bingley Hall, Staffordshire.
A comic programme, which featured “The Overwhelming MOTÖRHEAD” in “Rock Commando” was produced especially for (reportedly exclusive) distribution at their Bingley Hall concert.
I didn’t attend the gig (at least I don’t think I did, unless perhaps the Heavy Metal Brain Damage really has got to me 🙂 ) but I have a copy of the comic which I must have bought at a later gig, probably at the Mayfair later that year.
The comic was written by Klaus Blum with a section from Alan Burridge of Motorheadbangers, and features a great comic strip adventure with our heroes in a futuristic England and France."
