    Anyone here like The Stooges? Only three albums but still a remarkable band.

    Saw them earlier in the month in London Hammersmith Apollo and they were incredible. They played Fun House in its entirety and everyone went nuts. No doubt Iggy is one of the best frontmen in rock history, can't believe he's still going.

    During the third last song Iggy got forty people from the crowd to get onstage. I had seen this happen when they played in Dublin last year but this time I actually did it me self.

    Absolutely amazing. On stage with The Stooges. I fúcking gave Mike Watt a hug, scared him for a second, didn't even get to ask him if he got my CD. Iggy was in the middle of a scrum for the whole stage invasion but I gave his hair a shuffle. Everyone was just jumping around aimlessly. It was great fun though, didn't want it to end. Possibly one of the best shows I've ever been to.

    The Stooges rule.Love their albums esp Fun House ..sounds like a kickass show would have loved to hear them play the whole album .Went to see them in Dublin castle also and it was one of the best shows I've ever seen...pure insane raw rock n roll Iggy still crazy as ever ,enigmatic. pity guitarist Ron Asheton doesnt wanna play any raw power songs though ! guess he never got over that feud with the other guitar player...got a live dvd last week of them in detroit ..good show also but guitar playin was a bit underpar compared to the records prob cos he was rusty.
