IGGY POP

[FloorFiller]

yeah he's not as big as those acts, but i could see him going one below. hopefully my wish of Faith No More playing will come true and it'll go Iggy Pop > Faith No More. lovely, but wishful thinking (also not sure if Faith No More would be considered as big as those acts these days - at Glastonbury, anyway)

Thanks for asking - just waiting to hear results from my leg scan - she did confirm that there is a restricting in my blood flow so they are plotting out a solution - there is two options - will know what they plan to do the next time I see the Vascular Consultant.

it all takes time but with any luck I should get it sorted out before Glasto 2015

My Team mate from Iceland is over next week so I will be asking him about this ATP event as he is bound to know about it .

I was due to go over to Iceland this year but this leg problem has screwed that up but I did look into PAYG sim cards as ' mobile roaming charges ' inside Iceland are sky high

if anyone is going - ' provided you have a unlocked phone ' have a read at

He isn't with The Stooges like he was 8 years ago.

was he with the stooges 8 years ago? He certainly wasn't a year or two prior to eight years ago.

they've been reformed since 2003, but obviously Iggy has been dipping in and out of them to do his own stuff also

See that is so weird. I know precisely two Faith No More songs and one of those is a cover. Are they really bigger than Iggy? He has some massive songs.

Also I don't get why the Stooges make for a higher slot. I'd put him at the same level with or without.

But what do I know...

FNM are massive still, but not sure with a Glastonbury crowd. Wow, dude, 2 songs, get the Angel Dust album, and have a listen, fucking ace. I would be in heaven if it was Iggy into FNM. Shame as I cant see it happening. But Iggy I can, someone mentioned him on the Park - fuck. imagine that

If you mean the night he played the Other - then Yes he was. Both Asheton brothers were alive at that point

You know more than most of the people in this thread it seems...

Iggy is comfortably an other stage headliner, just as he was in 2007. He is a living legend.

Faith no more above him on the bill!! come off it.

Iggy has more "hits" as a solo artist than he does with the Stooges.

[Brave Sir Robin]

And he'll play some of the Stooges best known songs too. I'd say he was a bigger draw solo than with the Stooges (despite the latter being his best work).

Good to hear Glasto Worker, the insights and info you post on here are much appreciated. Hope it all goes well.

Stooges have split up now, after the death of one of their band members. His first solo tour in a long time.

[The Nal]

[Justiceforcedave]

While I'm sure he'd be a great Other Stage headliner.....wouldn't he be more fun topping a sweaty packed out John Peel Stage?

[FloorFiller]

*and repeats* he's not gonna headline Other. i'll give you all a tenner if he headlines Other or is in a slot higher than it (Pyramid sub)

[Zoo Music Girl]

I'll gladly take it

Two gone now, drummer last year, guitarist few years ago..

Great band.. Got to see them once, my girlfriend dragged me away after 1/2hr or so.. We didn't last long after that..

Well really there was no choice as the 3 original stooges are all gone. Ron Asherton enjoyed the resurection of the Stooges circa 2003, caught a comment in an interview after the Glastonbury appearance about finally being able to afford a new car 35 years or so after they started out. Sadly he only lasted another 2 years after 2007!

[Zoo Music Girl]

They don't. You're right.

Don't get used to me saying that.

Christ on a bike. Should get this post framed!

[Ted Dansons Wig]

To add to the rest of the 'scruff shrine' you have Chez Zoo.

We have created a monster

[The Nal]

Getting his own show on BBC.

Between that and his dates with the Foos he has Glasto written all over his face. At the very least a guest appearance with the Foos surely?
