Oh.

I was quite hoping that this was a character who you had created.

[MsD]

Mr Pop at the lectern

Sorry.

Maybe I should invent a character for the other thread, but it's a bit early and I'm still in my pyjamas.

That's a smashing blouse his Igginess is wearing.

Is it sacrilege to suggest that I never really liked any of his music yet retain a fondness for his insanity?
I've had his autobiography kicking around the house for years and still haven't bothered lifting it.

Yeh, I've got that, it was a gift. Haven't read it.

[Calvert]

Shame on us.
The absolute shite I read and I can't be arsed with Iggy's book of mentalosity.

Please Kill Me is quite a good read about the NYC punk scene.

Iggy has been looked up as His Royal Igginess for most of my life, but I don't think I could name any songs beyond Lust for Life and I Wanna Be Your Dog. And that Well Did You Evah? duet with Debbie Harry.

You must know The Passenger?

I like the radio shows he does for 6 Music on Sunday afternoons. I still haven't quite got over the shock of Iggy Pop playing Noel Coward while I was making the dinner last week.

Oh, yeah. I know that one. Prefer it by Siouxsie, though.
