Motörhead Marches Off to Mohegan Sun in CT
February 8, 2012 by Kristen Pierson
Motörhead is making their return to the U.S. on the multi-bill festival, Gigantour, with Megadeth, Volbeat and Lacuna Coil. The second stop of the tour brought the band to the Mohegan Sun Arena in Connecticut on January 27, 2012.
The crowd was already amped up when Motörhead took the stage, but when the band started playing their first few chords, the energy of the arena went through the roof. The band played several of their classics including “Bomber,” “Ace of Spades,” and “Overkill” as well as newer songs like “I Know How to Die” from the 2010 release The Wörld Is Yours.
The performance lived up to, or exceeded everyone’s expectations, loud and raucous. And from my perspective, there’s nothing cooler than being in the photo pit while Lemmy is belting out tunes and wailing away on his Rickenbacker bass. Motörhead killed it.
