DUDE VS STOOGE

  (6-5-12) All hail the B-Day of IAN HUNTER(6/3/'39), main man dude with the fabulous MOTT THE HOOPLE. MTH & the STOOGES shared the same stage in the mid-'70's, with Ian & IGGY thereafter excanging a few insults via the media. Asked about it in 2005 Ian claims any remarks made by him must have been "taken out of context", now saying: "Iggy's a one-off, totally unique, goes his own way..I respect that." I'd say much the same for Ian, one of the only artists of his Rock N'Roll generation ( he's OLDER than the Stones!) who still makes vital, NEW music. Dunno what IGGY would say, tho'...
P.S. If "FUN HOUSE" had gone platinum, would RON have gotten made a swastika shaped guitar?
