No disrespect intended, but Iggy looks like he died awhile ago!

another hero gone. BTW exactly who cares what a musician looks like anyways?

Sad day, fer sure. He was (these guys were) powerfully great. Caught these guys a couple of times in Detroit around Raw Power timeframe. Awesome music for an angst-ridden teen living in the Motor.

My buddy and I went to see them once at the Windsor Ice Arena(?). Iggy wore a sliver glitter g-string - NOT a common sight back in those days, especially for a man. He really was a "wild one". During the show Ron (guitar) and his brother Scott (drums) were arguing (loudly) back and forth during the show. They eventually got into a knock-down, drag-out, fist fight on stage during a song. All the while the other (two) members continued playing/singing while these two rolled around on the stage doing what brothers are sometimes wont to do, punching each other ... And a good time was had by all.
