Motörhead's last U.S. tour was the Metal Masters tour in 2008, with Judas Priest, Heaven and Hell, and Testament. Their most recent album, Motörizer, was released last year. Frontman Lemmy will turn 64 on December 24, and his band can still kick your band's ass. [Photo of Motörhead live in 2005 by Lenny Gotter.]
