The saga of Motorhead frontman Lemmy's health continues. Earlier today (Aug. 2) the group had to end a concert after six songs because the singer was too sick to go on.

Video has surfaced of the show Motorhead had to cut short on Friday (July 2) because of Lemmy Kilmister's health problems. The professionally filmed video contains approximately 12 minutes of the 30-minute set the band played at the Wacken Open Air festival in Germany.

Last night (Aug. 2), Motorhead were forced to abandon their performance at the Wacken Open Air festival in Germany because of Lemmy's health. While we have no official word from the band on Lemmy's condition, organizers of the festival have issued a statement on the situation.

Legendary Motorhead frontman Lemmy Kilmister apparently suffered another health setback during the band's set at the Wacken Open Air Festival in Germany tonight (Aug. 2). While no specific announcement was made, the band cut its set short after playing only six songs.

Even though Motorhead had to cancel their summer European concert dates due to frontman Lemmy Kilmister's health issues, the band is still on track to release their latest album 'Aftershock' this fall and have unveiled the track listing (see below). The band's 21st studio album was produced by Cameron Webb (Pennywise).

So this is my second year attending the Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival and I have to say, I was nervous that this year's round of Mayhem would be kind of, lame. I mean come on, last year Anthrax, Slayer, Motorhead and Slipknot were a few of the names who killed it at SPAC last Summer.

It's been a hectic couple of weeks for Lemmy Kilmister and the Motorhead crew. With various health scares -- ranging from the maybe-serious to the even-more-serious -- putting a stop to the band's summer touring schedule, and no real confirmation of what's really going on, fans have been speculating on the condition of the 67-year-old frontman.

Motorhead have cancelled the remainder of their summer 2013 European tour after doctors recommended frontman Lemmy be given more time to recover from a hematoma he reportedly suffered last month.

Motorhead frontman Lemmy Kilmister has been suffering from some serious health issues in recent weeks, forcing the legendary rock and roll band to cancel various European tour dates. As Kilmister's health problems have piled on, it has been revealed that under doctor's orders, Lemmy needs to rest up, thus forcing Motorhead to cancel their remaining string of European shows.

Motorhead have released an update on the condition of frontman Lemmy Kilmister, who suffered a hematoma recently. All appears to be well. "We are happy to announce that despite rumors to the contrary, Lemmy is alive, breathing, talking, f---ing, drinking, eating, reading and will be back to playing shows shortly," reads a statement on the band's official website.

Motorhead were forced to cancel Saturday's (June 22) concert at Austria's See-Rock Festival and have scrubbed their June 25 show in Milan as well. The reason? According to a Facebook post by the Italian promoter, frontman Lemmy Kilmister suffered a hematoma and was unable to go onstage.

Legendary Motorhead frontman Lemmy Kilmister may seem like an immortal figure, namely God, but the musician recently went through an operation for serious heart issues. We hate to burst your bubble, but Lemmy is simply a man -- a man who now has a defibrillator embedded into his chest.
