Iggy Pop getting cuddled by the audience.
Taken at the three day festival of rock and metal in Trondheim, Norway.
Before Punk rock got wide public recognition it was in the womb of psychedelic rock born from crazy Yippies. The first and most praised Punk rocker who gave life to the genre was best known as Iggy Pop (Poppy of the Iguanas made Iggy Pop by the Stooges). Iggy Pop was of continual garage rock culture, later along came The Clash who because of joining Aerosmith on a single duet gave rise to the genre of Punk rock. By 1976 Punk emerged to the billboard public radio known as the mainstream media. Many punks were pissed off by this recognition and by such public exposure seeing as Punk rock opened its doors to countless hipsters. Soon after there was two kinds of Punk, Hollywood Punk (the mainstream punk rockers) and Hardcore Punk (the underground punks, real punks) who ended up in a factional fued but the hardcore punk faction collapsed after much turmoil and arguement especially violence. Many were then led to believe Punk was dead because the mainstream punks purged their hard work from existence. However The Exploited's 'Punk Isn't Dead' let everyone know they didn't vanish but hit a temporary stasis where they were isolated communally and suddenly returned. Because of the disaster that caused Punk Rock's fall they were forced to remake it entirely through Hardcore causing many old and original punks to fall under the poser line. Once filled with tipped hair and drabby clothes it began sporting mohawks, skater shoes and other aesthetics involving ripped jeans and patch'n'spike leather jackets. What's even more sad is that Fred Durst and his band Limp Bizkit sounded way more punk than alot of the mainstream babblers and they aren't even considered punk rock, hell they're nu-metal but lean closer to hardcore than all those sissies. Punk rock by the 90's began to have more skater punk bands as they originally introduced the skate boards that became a catchy culture. According to real punks today, most of the so-called punk rock bands on the mainstream from mall-punk to pop-punk are pure sissy posers who wear gay preppy clothes and even more homo fauxhawks. Avril Lavigne was known as the biggest poser of them all being all her music leaned pop-rock to plain pop, being the inherint idol of the 'preppy-punk' trend that followed; preppy-punks began wearing factory fresh jeans with intentional bleach stains circling ripped holes, along with that was black dress shirts with pink neck ties (hinting at Yuppiedom) and converse shoes met with easy grab cotton wristbands (winking at plastic manufacturing design); preppy-punks also listened to Avril as well as bubblegum punk bands (many who were actually emo bands) such as Good Charlotte, AFI, All American Rejects, American HiFi and Simple Plan. Punk rock has recovered from the sicky sweet teeny boppers making punk rock into a backwards version of Brittney Spears, they are making the same noise as they did before this inauthenticity. Now the punk rock factions have divided into parties, on the hardcore side sits the Liberal Punks and Satanic Punks whereas on the hollywood side sits the Skate Punks and the Hipster Punks. Liberal punks are the last real punk rockers now, satanic punks have pretty much gone nuts with the elitism! Skate punks are the only rebel punkers there are, hipster punks have all become a bunch of sissy scene punks. Punk rockers have also turned their focus to Indie punk which is a newer sort of punk rock but is not as psycho and less angry than all the shit that spawned in the past few years.
My pal Dan Erlewine and his then bandmate Iggy Pop in Ann Arbor sometime around 1966-67. The original Stooges era just around the corner.......
Somewhere a baby's feeding
Somewhere a mother's needing
Outside her boy is trying
But mostly he is crying
Did you see his eyes?
Did you see his crazy eyes?
And you're so surprised he doesn't run to catch your ash
Everybody always wants to kiss your trash
But you can't help him, no one can
And now that he knows
There's nothing to get
Not in this place
Not in your face
Will you still place your bet
Against the Neighbourhood Threat?
I have days - weeks even - where all I want to listen to is Iggy Pop. Over and over and over. I discovered him a little late - my senior year in high school, when the movie Trainspotting came out. That soundtrack kind of blew my mind, honestly. Iggy makes me happy and feel like I can kick some ass all at the same time. Lust for Life is one of my favorite albums, ever EVER - it gets extremely heavy rotation in my iTunes and probably always will - I sort of feel like Iggy Pop music gets better and better the more I listen. You can definitely hear the Bowie influence in Neighborhood Threat - all the more reason to love it.

Although he has had only limited commercial success, Iggy Pop is considered one of the most important innovators of punk and related styles.

"Boy, I feel so outgunned today
But I'll get up and fight back, anyway
You and I are not huge mainstream stars
But unlike them, we're really what we are
We got Main Street eyes
Watchin' as the big boys roll by
Under rotten television skies
We got Main Street eyes"

We take from one another,
And never stop to wonder,
How it feels from the other side.
But nothing lasts forever,
When stupid turns to clever,
Why are you surprised?
And I feel like I've crawled outside the box.
And I feel like I'm sleeping when I'm not.
