Who the fuck low and sick enough makes this public, barely over a month after he passed away. She should maybe consider working something out private instead of getting the media involved. Harsh word from someone who doesn't know the facts . You seem to be missing the point that she made this public through a tabloid paper. |

Obviously some parts of it are probably true but, there are some holes in it which makes me think, "Bullshit!" -Rick said recently enough that she looked after the finances....If that's the case, how could she not have known about this? -It says the kids are left with nothing, but the article goes on to say that Rick's share of the house will be split between his kids. Which is it? -Francis told her to get out while she could....Not having a go at him and maybe they did try and help him but, if they thought he was that bad, why did no one in the band or management help him? It's like Spud all over again Also, if Francis said that, it clearly shows Francis didn't give a fuck about Rick and shows there was an element of truth to that article last week, where the synopsis of Rick's book said they don't care for each other. It's also quite hypocritical that some of you dismissed last week's article as "gutter press gossip" and said they "wouldn't believe a word of it" yet, some of you believe this in an instant? As I said, a lot of it could be true but, there's also a lot of holes in this probably more credibility with today's article as Lyndsay has actually given her story to the paper direct. The previous ones weren't based on anything factual and are just the inventions journalists seeking column inches |

Not if the executors are taking away his personal possessions and forcing the poor woman out of her home. Try and put yourself in her position, finding out he had secretly changed his will only days before his death. If what she says is true, and I've no reason to doubt it, I think her actions have been very restrained and dignified. Carrying on with an ex-wife was entirely true to form but changing his will like that was sheer malevolence. |

Everyone's getting all concerned about his personal life when quite frankly none of us have damn all to do with it. He was a musician. Enjoy the music. Stop moping and play it loud fuck sake.

The sheer thrill of seeing him opening a gig with Caroline...
Him rocking out to BFM
Roadhouse was anther highlight
BW/JTM as we watched him deliver the best rhythm on guitar that is known to man
Yeah....He fucked up
Wish he hadn't................
And yes, I'm talking about Rick ffs
And not one of you have responded to my earlier post.....Course though, this is true and last week's isn't....It was stereotypical gutter press last week, it's Gospel this week ....But, what the synopsis said might be true and what his ex missus says, it's clear as day they did not like one another....But, I'm a dickhead
Probably a lot of truth to this but, what Francis said will go ignored and Rick's missus is not talking correctly, considering her kids get a share of the house, as said in the article

Agree with FW...last weeks article cannot be 100% kosher. We can't also say this one is either. These are the days of "false news"...you cannot trust anything the media uses to sell papers as the truth.
Why has she run to the press so soon?
Maybe she is angry because she just found out she has nothing. Maybe she has been bought. Maybe she has done it for the kids.
One day we may have the "facts"....rather than "he said/she said".

You know what?... that makes a lot of sense. I want to remember Rick as the rocker. He was the epitome of what rock n roll is about to me and he stayed true as a hard rocker to the end. I sort of started reading this personal stuff but a lot of bullshit is starting to be thrown around so I won't view any of it. Absolutely none of my business and doesn't effect me in any way. As far as I'm concerned Rick is alive n well and still rockin' in my mind. |

This is the article . However.... My heart goes out to Lyndsay and the twins..... It was a very sad read, from beginning to end. It is certainly sad if not unsurprising. What I don't understand is why Quo are carrying on without him. When Lemmy died, they announced the same day Motörhead was finished. Quo should have done the same out of respect and common sense. I certainly won't be seeing them again with the various stand ins. It's pathetic. |

FW what part if this situation is Francis responsible for ? I'm not having a rant here just want your take on it.
If you are upset that Francis told her to get out while she could do you not think in hindsight it was good advice ?

Status Quo Ltd will only make money from touring and some royalties. Francis goes out on his own with the others, Rick's estate only gets royalties for songs he wrote (if they play them). If They go out as Status Quo his estate will earn more money and the twins might need every penny if there truly is nothing. |

You need to stop this nonsense and getting your back up, thinking you have to defend Francis in every situation. No one has claimed this is Francis' fault. No one has had a go at him over this. You need to stop. |

The thing is Motorhead was always Lemmys band at the end of the day, and if anyone is genuinely irreplaceable it was Lem. My understanding is that the other 2, Phil and Mikkey not only did very well out of Motorhead (the were, as far as i know equal partners) but they were also very respected within the business, if anything Mikkey has already gone on greater things by getting the Scorpions gig At the end of the day if enough punter are prepared / want to see a version of SQ it'll plod on until Francis says otherwise, and as others have alluded to could actually help Ricks kids, that said if you don't like the idea then don't go |

I'm no expert in legalities but what happens if debts are more than the sum of the estate ? Do they get written off or does the tax man etc..go after the next of kin or even any company the person is a director of ?
