the stooges changed the world, 3 Ipsalati boys.
prior to that Iggy was the drummer for the iguanas in 64
then boom!!
From The Man who shot Liberty Valence
“when the legend becomes fact, print the legend”
I liked “dead man”, but Iggy had a weird role LOL
billy bob thornton... “good God i’m hit!”
Iggy was also in several episodes of “The Adventures of Pete and Pete.”
A fun movie on the beginnings of punk is “CBGB”, the club in New York’s Bowery with Alan Rickman playing the owner. Pretty good job of re-creating some of the acts like Blondie.
“Kristal ironically became known as the godfather of punk giving a chance to such bands as Blondie, Television, Ramones, Talking Heads, Dead Boys and The Police.”

my buddy Sqeek was a roadie for blondie in those days they were punk
I’ll watch a Jim Jarmusch film knowing it will be strange. Ghost Dog is a favorite
Dead man had a stellar cast
I lived in Ann Arbor from ‘78 to ‘83.
Saw Jim perform several times back then at local clubs.
He is one-of-a-kind.
I saw Iggy Pop when he played the i and i club in Athens, Ga in the early 80s. My friend had seen him a year earlier in a different state and said he sometimes liked to whip out his private parts on stage. It was a great show and sure enough, during an encore he showed it off, possibly because he was just a punk, or maybe just because he was proud of its size.
