Yes….everyone who sees Iggy live sees the light. The man brings it. And he turns 60 this month. Truly freak of nature.
Thanks Seth for making this happen.

Yes, thanks to Seth for having them in the smallest venue of the tour by far. And thanks to the Stooges for saving the new material for the tail end of the set (which to my surprise came off surprisingly well and didn't affect the intensity of the set at all).
AAAHHH!!! Yes!
I'm so glad he could play the 9:30 Club–thanks Seth and crew!!!!

That was insane, wasn't it? I love seeing the crowd so into a show, and it was incredible to watch the wave of humanity from upstairs.
How about Watt? He is the perfect "hired gun" for the Stooges.
"Wow" sums it up! I wonder if the ringing in my ears will stop before work on Monday.

i guess there were no anti-bush rants last night?
Iggy, Stooges have a soft spot for the GOP, lobbyists
So this is how punks grow old: They stay in chic, modern hotels, hang out with banking lobbyists and reveal their Republican allegiances.
Punk legends Iggy & the Stooges, who played the 9:30 Club Thursday night, have been hanging their tattered hats this week at the newly spiffed up Park Hyatt in the West End.
Wednesday night, the Stooges, including original members Ron and Scott Ashton, were sitting down to dinner on the outside patio at the hotelâ??s Blue Duck Tavern, when out came Iggy Pop himself.
He was â??gimping through the lobbyâ? wearing only one Birkenstock sandal with the other foot bare, said Erick Gustafson, a lobbyist with the Mortgage Bankers of America, who was himself having dinner at the time and just so happens to be a huge fan.
â??He looks and walks exactly like youâ??d expect him to look and walk,â? Gustafson said.
Iggy hung out for about 40 minutes before going back upstairs to do whatever it is that he does, but the Ashton brothers stayed out long after dinner, whereupon Gustafson and Dan Berger of the National Association of Federal Credit Unions joined them for drinks.
As the temperature dropped, the party moved inside, and the punks and policy wonks continued to enjoy wine and spirits into the wee hours.
Among the biggest surprises from the rockers? They love jazz great John Coltrane, and theyâ??re both Republicans.
â??Ron was pretty knowledgeable about lawmakers and policy,â? Gustafson said.
Not very rock â??nâ?? roll of them. At least they could have heaved a TV out the window for old timesâ?? sake.

Man, that just fucking killed.
And one thing in response to that article - of course they're fans of Coltrane. Steve Mackey's playing on Funhouse is completely Coltrane-esque. Plus the music in general - they create massive grooves - basically lighting bonfires - and Iggy kind of soloes over it.

Yeah….great show by the Stooges. I'm very happy to have seen it at the 9:30. Although, my back is none too happy with me for getting front and center.
No love for Sistas In The Pit….?? The bass player (is she Bootsy's niece/daughter/cousin?) may have been the most excited person in the club last night.

that was pretty wild - worth catching an early flight back from St Louis for! I can't believe Iggy is 60…puts a lot of younger artists to shame
I was diggin' the Sistas and picked up the disc… Talented bunch but in need of a little focus and improvements in the songwriting dept.
Now the other band that night was a waste of space… Someone needs to tell them that Halloween has come and gone. It was like watching a horrid New Yorks Dolls tribute band attempting to do their own originals. The fact tbey didn't realize their alloted time slot was up smacked of unprofessionalism

random iggy factoid… my uncle went to high school with James Osterburg, needless to say they took divergent career paths ;)
I can't believe I didn't see you! I was up there the entire time as well.

I loved the older, gray-haired, British guy in the sportcoat. He was everywhere; apparently engaged as the "fixer."
Cymbals need tightening? Check.
Sound levels on the monitors? Check.
Extra water? Check.
Personal bodyguard? Check.
New mic stand? Check.
The Sistas need More towels? Check.
Someone needs to stick a hand down Iggy's pants to keep him from falling? Check
