Motörhead Rocks for the Anniversary of Europe's Leading Rock'n'Roll Mail Order Business EMP

LINGEN, Germany, December 11/PRNewswire/ -- A big party took place last Friday in the town of Lingen in Northern
Germany: Europe's leading rock mail order business, E.M.P., organised a
monster party in the Emslandhallen celebrating its 20th anniversary of
successful business. The main attraction was the legendary heavy metal band
Motörhead. The band entertained and fascinated 3000 fans including 500
musicians, E.M.P. employees and representatives from the film and music
industry.

A local youth centre had the idea to invite these rock icons who were
touring Europe, to Lingen. E.M.P., headquartered in Lingen, was so taken by
the youth centre's idea that the company sponsored the concert and made
Motörhead the main attraction of its own anniversary party.

Successful Fundraiser

Music is not only fun. It also helps people suffering from mental
diseases during their healing process. E.M.P., therefore, used the event as a
fundraiser for the foundation named "Musik HILFT" (Music Helps) - the amount
raised will be known shortly. E.M.P. will also add 20,000 euros to the amount
raised.

About E.M.P.

A heavy metal fan, Felix Lethmate, founded E.M.P. in 1986 and was soon
joined in this endeavour by Frank Janetzky and Michael Rother. At this time,
the three had no idea that 20 years later E.M.P. would be Europe's largest
mail order business for rock music and merchandising products. Currently
E.M.P. has offices in the Netherlands, Belgium, Switzerland and Finland. For
orders please go to www.emp.de, to choose from a selection of approximately
15,000 products.
