| I'm sure Iggy could give a shit about what we consider punk or selling out. | |

Iggy & The Stooges don't give a damn shit about the punk thing! it's to the fans to figure out what they want with that. The selling out thought is more complicated. I can't get a finger on that one. All attention, also negative...is good for the cash in music business. for some Stooges fans like me it's difficult to take cuz there is hardly any attention for the music in it. The Stooges deserve a huge respect for their music and role in music history! I'm not sure if The Stooges give a shit about this either. |

| Oh, I know. I was coming from the perspective of some of the fans out there...nothing more, nothing less.
If this is a publicity stunt, it's definitely working! It's keeping the band in the media eye at the moment...beyond myspace, beyond this forum, beyond iggy-pop.com and iggypop.org.
Well, back to the myspace page...I'm literally bombarded with messages! | |

| copied reaction from the myspace stooges site:
Honest to freakin goodness folks, since the dawn of f**kin' time you've been thinkin' that if you're a fan that makes you part OWNER or somethin'! SHUT THE F**K UP! If I wanna play in a Joni Mitchell Tribute and you don't get the f**kin' IRONY, that's your stupid f**kin luck and I could care less if you are disappointed in my artistic choices! It's not your place to dictate to artists! I will never forget or forgive the clueless bozos who slaughtered Iggy for "Avenue B" (one of my favorite departure albums of all time) as if he wasn't allowed to veer off course when the crappy " why do I bother to exist anymore ?'" mood hits! I WILL SAY IT AGAIN. SHUT THE F UP, you don't own IGGY or anyone else for that matter. JESUS F**KIN CHRIST! Hey IG , do an entire Madonna Tribute Album if it tickles yer ass, no skin offa my back! ONE MORE TIME FOLKS ,SHUDDUP!
another nice way to put it! hahaha
Cheers! thnx Dave

| No need to go so overboard! for a start everyone has different opinions (etc etc), and it was just totally weird seeing Madonna and the Stooges mentioned together, I needed SOME time to adjust, right?? of course it was a shock. And of course they can do whatever the eff they like, good on them. This Madonna thing is just a weird concept, is all I'm saying I have to say, tho, I didn't even much like the idea of them playing Glastonbury last year (Glastonbury's SUCH a borefest) and am I correct in thinking that Ron got his guitar nicked there for his efforts!!!??? Can someone clear this up for me? And if it was stolen, did he get it back? | |

| This thread has been a subject debated many times, over many years, on many Iggy boards: the purists vs the pragmatists vs the artistically open minded. I was thrilled when I first got the news -- what it could mean for them. It's a PR dream! I had to try to adjust in the oppiste direction, Nadja. As Cyd said, I also don't think Madonna needs his help -- she could be trying to help him, a fellow Detroiter! Keep in mind Iggy is much bigger across the pond than he is here. 2007 was the first year that he has consistently sold out small to midlevel venues in the states, headlined decent events like Lolapalooza (well there was the Coachella/reunion show) and guested on anyTV shows other than Letterman. The most we hear him here is on that incessant Royal Carribean (Lust) commercial -- the average peron doesn't even know who it is -- and low watt college or the few truly indie and esoterically programmed satellite radio stations. This event could make him (eek, or break) him here! I just hope he's well rested, his voice is consistent, the audience receptive, he shows for soundcheck, and he does something memorably outrageous. It goes without saying that this is the tightest band he's been with, and they bring rock history with them. He plays his heart out in NYC anyway. If I were a praying type...oh hell, lemme cover all the bases here. I haven't been this excited for Iggy since the Stooges got back together. Can't wait till Monday.

| Well said cb - it could be really great and do wonders for the Stooges. While we are all fanatics who love the band and Iggy it's worth putting his 'fame', such as it is, into perspective. Big exposure like this doesn't happen that often to Iggy. Cheers, Richard | |

| What a weird collection of songs. Surely hard to officially license all of these? Are these all the studio versions or a mix of live / studio tracks I wonder? Cheers, Richard | |

| I'll bet you a dollar. Every fucktard who is complaining about the Stooges appearing on stage with Madonna, yellin' sell-out or it's not punk (WTF?), will be GLUED to the boob tube (or Youtube) on the edge of their seats, watching and enjoying the whole extravaganza. Eat a dick. | |

| Time for me to weigh in here.
If I get to see the Stooges on TV, I'm happy. No matter what the reason or what the song is. Fuck it, it's THE STOOGES.

| Now it' time to set up the recording devices- VH1 Classic or an HD channel here in the US. MHD. One of the reasons I moved iggypop.org was to have the ability to have video on the site. Hope I can figure this out cb | |
