GREEK TO ME


  7-23-12  FRIENDS, ROMANS, STOOGES...While playing a gig in Athens, Greece in July of 1996 IGGY got hit with a bottle thrown at him by a member of the audience. IGGY responded by screaming: "Somebody hit me with a bottle! You can't kill ME! I'm IGGY POP! I'LL KILL YOU!" Years later,in July of 2007, the IG again plays Athens and AGAIN gets hit with a bottle. This time IGGY screams : "You can't stop ME! I AM IMMORTAL!" Could IGGY have gotten the Parthenon ( Athens/temple of Athena) mixed up with the Pantheon ( Rome/temple to all the Gods)? I know I did. James Osterberg, student of ancient history, wouldn't have.
