The iconic Motörhead frontman, who is considered to be one of the most influential figures in metal history, died in December 2015 at the age of 70, shortly after learning he had been diagnosed with cancer. Now, nearly nine years on, his ashes continue to make headlines.

It has recently been confirmed that some of his ashes are set to go on permanent display in the Stringfellow’s strip club in the UK capital city. The site was set up by late businessman and nightclub owner Peter Stringfellow, and a popular destination for the Motörhead frontman.

For the display, the ashes will be arriving on December 18, and set to be displayed in an urn shaped like the singer and bassist’s trademark cavalry hat. A ceremony will be held to celebrate the permanent fixture arriving in the venue, and is set to be attended by Lemmy’s bandmate, guitarist Phil Campbell.

“Stringfellows always held a special place in Lemmy’s heart. He loved the rock’n’roll spirit Peter brought to the club, he loved the relaxed environment, and he certainly loved the view,” said Motörhead manager Todd Singerman (via Louder). “I know he’s relieved he can get back to enjoying one of his favourite places on the planet!”

The outlet also shared how Lemmy revealed his fondness for the club back in 2016, when he told The Hollywood Times that he enjoyed spending time there when he wasn’t on the road. “Stringfellows in London… it’s a high-end strip club. There’s a big welcome there, always. I’ve known the owner, Peter, since 1964,” he said.

This is far from the first time that Lemmy has made headlines for the location in which his ashes will be displayed. Earlier this summer, for instance, a convoy of 55 Harley Davidson bikers escorted a bust of his ashes to Nottingham Rock City, and they are set to head back to Bloodstock Festival on an annual basis.

As well as that, some went to Los Angeles Rainbow Bar & Grill, some got scattered at the Wacken Open Air Festival in Germany, and Metallica’s James Hetfield has even had some of the ashes incorporated into a spade tattoo on his middle finger.

In other Lemmy news, back February it was confirmed that plans to erect a statue of the Motörhead frontman in the town where he was born had been approved by Stoke-on-Trent City Council.
