Half of me is thinking, oh poor Ron why did Iggy make him do something he didn't want to do?

The other half of me is thinking, SHIT! WHY DIDN'T THEY PLAY THAT IN LEEDS, 2007?!

The reps just told me there's going to be another new addition, but it's going to be a "surprise" Suicide

Hmmm. I'm guessing the other suprise will be either...

I Got A Right - Ron played guitar on it in 1971

or

Penetration - the only other Raw Power song apart from Search And Destroy that Ron likes

or

She Creatures Of Hollywood Hills - in most bootlegs Ron is solely credited for it

or

The Passenger - could Iggy have talked Ron into doing one of his solo songs?

or

Ann / We Will Fall - the only songs off of The Stooges original two albums they haven't preformed live

or

Lost In The Future - the Fun House outake?

or

Asthma Attack/I'm Sick - could it be? A Stooges track that's not been playeed since 1969?

I'm really excited! Very Happy

Subject: Re: Yes! Search & Destroy in 2008 Mon Jun 02, 2008 6:59 pm

If it's not "I Got A Right" then my money would be on either "Lust For Life" or "The Passenger". I know they aren't Stooges songs, but they would certainly go down incredibly well at the festivals.

Or, how about a brand new song?

Cheers,

Richard

A new song would be cool... but Lost In The Future would suit me well (even if I'll probably never see them live). We Will Fall and Ann wouldn't fit in the setlist, I think - not "hard" enough.
Today one of those songs, tomorrow a new album...

Subject: Re: Yes! Search & Destroy in 2008 Mon Jun 02, 2008 7:33 pm

I guarantee you it won't be "We Will Fall". Laughing

"I Got A Right" wouldn't surprise me at all though.

Subject: Re: Yes! Search & Destroy in 2008 Mon Jun 02, 2008 7:37 pm

Wow, altho only two surprise new songs in the setlist? i hope its i got a right, i suppose they cant completely cave, tho i wonder why ron did -if he did cave at all, which he probly didnt, theres no reason why he had to play a song he didnt like seeing as they can still come up with songs at will almost (they wrote like 40 songs for weirdness)

i hope its a good one, i got a right or gimme some skin or something

cant believe this

thanks for the information and links Cathy

we will fall > hahaha...that would be a real suprise!

if there'r gonna be other classics as suprise...think it's gonna be 'The Passenger' or/and 'I Got A Right', both are the most festival and new audience proof. Gimmy some skin maybe also...but dunno if Iggy's voice and the band still can reach that sharpness and speed what makes the song specific.

Subject: Re: Yes! Search & Destroy in 2008 Mon Jun 02, 2008 7:52 pm

think so? i cant imagine them doin an iggy song - tho i suppose the floodgates are wide open now with raw power songs being played

and ron would probly have less to say about passenger or lust for life

but they would definitly tick some of my boxes, im desperate to see a proper iggy pop solo show and this will be the only chance i guess

does anyone know if he'll every do another solo record or tour? or is it just stooges til death kinda thing?

Guest

yr right hsjw.....'the floodgates are wide open'..hahahaha....as idea, the barrier is broken now to play more.
This must has been thought over very well by The Stooges guy's...I'm curious where the barrier is gonna be laid now.

A lot of Iggy stuff could very well be played by The Stooges > than Iggy wouldn't have to do his stuff on his own (i'm desperate to hear his stuff live) ah would that be impossible totally smashing great! but that's really gonna be a bridge too far i think.

when's gonna be the first interview with The Stooges again (cathy?)..can't hardly wait to hear what they have to say about songs they're gonna play this year!

Subject: Re: Yes! Search & Destroy in 2008 Mon Jun 02, 2008 8:59 pm

I love the stooges HSJW. But I MIss the Trolls... especiazlly Whitey And Pete And Alex.

But this is awesome... i wonder what song will be next.

HSJW - I only saw iggy once Solo... State Theatre Detroit 2001. I was very youung but it was awesome Smile

cheers !

Subject: Re: Yes! Search & Destroy in 2008 Mon Jun 02, 2008 9:02 pm

Yeh i really wish i couldve seen him solo, wouldve been cool, i wonder if ppl ever got bored with iggy solo and were amazied at stooges reunoin, and now they wish they could just see iggy one more time, lol

Subject: A rant... Tue Jun 03, 2008 12:33 am

I'd love to see Iggy solo but for me The Stooges are the best band ever. I FAR prefer them to Iggy & The Stooges because let's face it, they're practically two different bands. It's a wonder Ron played Search And Destroy but Iggy has been nagging him for sometime.

Don't get me wrong Iggy's great even on his most dire solo records there are some great songs BUT its The Stooges. The band that played 1970 (one of the most crazed songs ever written) while Iggy walked on an audience's hands and smeared peanut butter on himself. No rock band has or ever will reach that height of crazed mania.

The Passenger would be great to hear live but then The Stooges that's THE STOOGES would be reduced to another Iggy backing band. And I don't want that to happen. I'd rather they broke up than were reduced to another The Trolls.

The Trolls are good but it's THE STOOGES! C'mon people it's not just another Iggy promoting vehicle, this is the greatest band on the planet. Iggy will always be centre stage but only with the Ashetons (in some shape or form) can he reach musical perfection.

It may not be apparent in The Weirdness but its there.

God bless you Stooges. Jesus loves you.

think you're actually right on what you say!
this can't be seen from the perspective of a fan.

Subject: Re: Yes! Search & Destroy in 2008 Tue Jun 03, 2008 12:45 am

Spose your rite G, i can hold out yet for iggy solo gig

plus its hardly as if the stooges are boring!! lol

i hope they dont do iggy solo stuff, just doesnt fit, u'no

altho makes you think, amean would it be an exact cover of the album version or would it be lie manchester 77 kinda thing, or like the one on hippodrome that powerful churn, god iggys brilliant as well isnt he?

bt i'd stil love to see iggy live, but ive got no qualms with the stooges!!
