I'm seeing them a week from Friday at a festival. $25 lets me in to also see Three Six Mafia, Social Distortion, Hubert Sumlin, and a bunch of other kerrrrrap I'll be trying to avoid. I am excited about the Stooges, though.

Saw 'em last week. It was great!

Tix were $30, and I managed to miss the opening band.

I like the phrase "eerily athletic".

I missed a phone call from a friend on Saturday to see them for $40.

Hey Brian, do we have a "kicking yourself" icon yet?

To be clear, I don't think Three Six Mafia, Social Distortion, Hubert Sumlin are kerrrrrap. Just some of the other bands playing that I didn't mention.

I was fortunate enough to see the reunion show at Coachella a few years back. (It was actually the only reason I went to the festival.) Great, great show--well worth the cost of both days' tickets.

For everyone who plans on catching them on this tour, here's hoping they don't play anything off "The Weirdness."

That was excessively violent and completely unnecessary. I loved it.

I saw them here in Detroit shortly after they got back together. Great show. Iggy's quite an athletic performer. There was an energy with the Stooges that wasn't there when I'd seen him as a solo act.

So, I guess I'm not the only one who was a little disappointed with the new album.

Oh, you could definitely say that. And you could also replace "little" with "completely."

Hundreds of times, I would imagine (:-)), but I think the persona is a professional posture, so to speak. It's a different world, sir.
