LEMMY FLOUTS U.K. SMOKING BAN

MOTORHEAD frontman LEMMY is facing a $100 (GBP50) fine after openly flouting a smoking ban at a concert in the U.K. The heavy metal legend - real name Ian Fraser Kilmister - was playing a gig at Hallam Arena in Sheffield, England on 6 November (07) when he lit a cigarette on stage, breaking the new law which came into force on 1 July (07), banning smoking in all enclosed public places. A British police spokesman says, "Other venues on the tour will be notified and appropriate action may be taken should any further incidents take place."
