What do The Stooges (as in Iggy Pop) and Slack Key have in common? James Williamson, guitarist for the band, has taken up Slack Key according to an article in the current issue of The Fretboard Journal.

Only Stooges I know are Larry, Curly. Moe, Shemp, Curly Joe and I think there was some other guy at one time or another. Nyuk-nyuk.

Asheton actually played bass in a band with Williamson prior to the Stooges, which led to Asheton recruiting him for the Stooges after their second album (at which point Asheton moved to bass).

Depressingly, Iggy Pop is currently on the television in the UK selling some sort of insurance. Iggy Pop - Who'd have thought it?

Amazing! I'd bet personal injury insurance, based on my experience in his audience...

Ha ha ha! You'd think so, Jeff, wouldn't you? No, it's for some online car insurance company.
