60th anniversary Las Vegas residency run to allow drummer Mikkey Dee to recover from illness.Earlier this year (January 2), drummer Mikkey Dee – who also used to drum for Motörhead until 2015, when the band dissolved following the death of the legendary Lemmy Kilmister – revealed that he was recently hospitalised for sepsis, a serious and dangerous blood infection.He revealed that had undergone various surgeries and was back home and in recovery, but that he was close to death at one point.

He found out about the condition after spraining his ankle, and said in December: “It was surgery right away, the first of three.
