'Lord Of The Rings' star Elijah Wood is set to play Iggy Pop in a movie about his life. The biopic, entitled 'The Passenger', concentrates on Pop's early career with The Stooges, and is set to begin filming within six months. According to Variety, Pop has "given his blessing" to the project but will not take part in any of the filming. Maybe its just me, but I dont know how good of a pairing th...
Yesterday I posted "Toe Jam", the latest single from Fatboy Slim's Brighton Port Authority. Today I found the band's myspace page, which offers a few more details. It turns out there's a full album in the works, including more stellar collaborations like Iggy Pop, Martha Wainwright and Ashley Beedle. Some of these songs have been circulating for awhile now, but this will be the first time ...
...Care for a little pop art with your Iggy Pop?...Back when I lived in New York, the installation artist "*Spencer Tunick*":http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spencer_Tunick took one of his infamous mass nude photos in Times Square (I worked a couple of blocks over in a building on Madison)...this was a decade and change before I'd ever hear of Britain's Banksy but I think the two are going in simil...
The 60 year old rocker has recently been critisized for writing songs about his special place on his bands latest album "The Weirdness". However, Iggy Pop thinks giving his penis attention is appropriate because he wants to sing about things that matter. "You write about things that are important to you, and it's gotta be for real. Do I think about my dick? All the time. I got a right to sing a...

So Has anyone else noticed how simaler the cash for clunkers program is to the cheap housing program a few years ago? Remember when you could get into a 200k house for no cash down? Remember how this got a ton of people into houses the couldent afford? Remember how when they defaulted on their loans when the intrest rate went up it caused a collapse in the houseing market?Now riddle me this: If...
I took quite a few pictures through my rock-tutelage. It started in high school with the old kodak and proceeded through college when I graduated to a Mamiya-Sekor slrMost of these pictures only exist in an album. I'm trying to put them on digital. Did a first pass last week.By the mid-seventies, Bowie and Iggy had been, ahem, pal-ing it up for a few years. Bowie even toured with Iggy, doing pi...

On the one hand Bowie may have befriended Iggy to save him from himself.On the two hand he may have wanted a subject on which to test his Neu Motorik musik theories.On the three hand he may just have wanted a buddy with which to drink beer and terrorise girls.Whichever, 'The Idiot' was still the strangest album of 1976.
In a brief (pun) exchange with my good buddy tyler durden i revealed that i have in the past posted mogs while in my drawers. He surpirzingly found this both startling and disgusting. So I pose to you all the question, Have you ever mogged in your underwear, or is it just me who has found mogging to be more important than clothes.
It’s funny that I mentioned a Mt. Rushmore of Iggy Pop, Nick Cave, and Tom Waits recently, as Pop himself has now brought up the subject of such a rock monument while elaborating on his reasons for authorizing his image and music to Lego Rock...
In an effort to get to know the listening styles, and live music attending habits of fellow moggers, I thought this would be a good time to share where you have seen good live music around the world. For me, it's been constrained primarily to the US. Regardless, I've been to a number of cities around the US and seen some decent bands in the dark and dingy night clubs of America. Sometimes t...
