  "account": "Motörhead will be the subject of a new exhibition at the Punk Rock Museum in Las Vegas, opening on October 2nd. The band's late frontman, Lemmy Kilmister, played a crucial role in the rise of heavy metal, having also contributed bass skills to The Damned and remained a dedicated supporter of the punk scene for many years. The exhibition will showcase various handwritten lyrics from Lemmy, alongside photographs, with the standout feature being the opportunity to play one of his actual Rickenbacker basses through his personal amp setup. This will enable visitors to connect with the history through a direct and personal experience. The Punk Rock Museum's record shop, Vinyl Threat, will offer Motörhead albums and exclusive merchandise as part of the celebration. Additionally, the Three Star Punk Bar will host a special evening on opening day, with DJ Brian Slagel from Metal Blade in attendance. The exhibition can be found at the museum located at 1422 Western Avenue in Las Vegas, starting from October 2nd.",
