We all know that the Stooges fit perfectly in the Detroit rock scene. They had a major following in the Midwest and Northern U.S. But what about other places, like in the southern U.S. in states like Arkansas, Tennessee, Alabama, etc. Did anyone in that time period from the south even know who the Stooges were?

I went to school in Richmond in the early 70s. Nobody had heard of them that I ran into. i take that back, one of my roomates played Fun House all the time. It was scratched tho and would hang up in the middle. He and his buddies were so down on reds that they couldnt get up to change it.

I have an uncle that caught them in Atlanta. He can't recall the date, but I also know there is a live recording of an Atlanta show (believe it was released with the deluxe version of Raw Power). This isn't to say that he was at that particular show, but it's possible.
They definitely had some sort of fan base in the south. Probably wasn't too large, but no doubt fans existed in the south.
