Iggy & The Stooges - Search And Destroy (Live at Rock N' Roll Hall of Fame 2010)

[Dirapl0x]

mike watts the shit

[eibon81]

Love In The Middle Of A Fire-Fight!!!!!

[MrSKINFLICK]

The rock´n´roll hall of fame actually thinks its necessary to censor "motherfuckers".....yuck ! Didn´t we already have enough censorship in Russia years ago ?

[MrSKINFLICK]

Iggy is 63 at the time of this live recording, just to mention it, kick-ass performance.

Many youngsters could eat their hearts out because they´re very uninspired compared to these vibes and already boring old farts today !

[acadx]

cool off with the shirt iggy!!!!

[somedudeinva]

Iggy actually looks a little healthier here than I've seen him in a long time. He's put a bit of weight on.

[mastaTnC]

iggy was prolly soo drunk

[hojima]

King of rock and roll. that fatass elvis can fuckoff.

[redhot161991]

iggy is immortal. greatest legend of punk rock nuff said

[astroboirap]

were they allergic to distortion pedals on this performance?

[dftr621]

@astroboirap Natural tube drive > Any distortion pedal

[astroboirap]

@dftr621 oh reeeeally?

[MrPeguin666]

Who let Jennifer Aniston on stage? She looks great

[kerrkerr310]

it's mad how he's still got a vaguely slim body shape, SWIFTCOVER.

[hojima]

King of rock and roll.

[IndependentVictor]

iggy is the coolest man in the world

[LxPxRxPunk]

@IndependentVictor Lemmy Kilmister or Jello Biafra are good contenders though.

[fredrosario]

Porra Louca Total, Muito Massa o som, curto pra caramba !!!!!!

[MadonnasMrDj]

They inducted Madonna :)

I freakin' love The Stooges! They deserve more credit for what they've done for Punk Rock music.

[flagwaver1969]

That was from a parallel universe. It was great to see the Stooges play on these $1,200. a dinner plate assholes. Asheton should have been there!!!

[bwbk007]

@flagwaver1969 Why do you think the sexpistols didn't show up when they were inducted several years back.

[PAULLONDEN]

@flagwaver1969

[markonitogen]

Fuck YeaH BABY! Gimme danger in the fkin YouTubenger...

[thefuneralstv]

James Williamson Played So Loud! Glad He´s Back Since 1973!

[keyehaw]

@manwithtwobrains You're a dope.

[tennis11ish]

Iggy's torso is one of the wonders of the world. LOVE YOU IGGY POP. Rock on forever.

[mm007b5547]

[TheJayman213]

how come they got in so late?

[ImTheDude909]

IGGY IS THE TRUE KING OF ROCK N ROLL.

[jowo13]

@ImTheDude909 lol yeah ok!

[MrAdrien1999]

I hate the piano in the background

[modland]

Sloppy cymbal stands

[alexdykeman]

@modland sloppy drum tech.

[modland]

Sloppy cymbal stands

[robbee23]

Ron and James would have made a great duet on guitars, too bad it didn't. Except maybe a few times in early incarnations live.

[tubesteakbooky]

lousy version



[crazy4YT]

I love it how iggy walks in with a shirt then takes it off before the performance. That's classic iggy!

[notfragile33]

This is going to happen to Metallica and Megadeth, eventually. Seems when rockers reach 50 or 60, they start playing songs at half the speed they used to. I saw this with the remaining MC5 a few years back when they were playing a song like "Rama Lama Fa Fa". It's already happened to The Who, as well

[Youzentuber]

Iggy Fail is a blow hard!

[erkjan]

@manwithtwobrains hes best!!

[TheAstrozombie01]

Iggy owns a shirt?

[barniskatems77]

guitarist fucked it up,.but great performance,can't wait to see him live next month!!!!!!!iggy is still alive

[netox777]

fuck that guitarrist, long life to ron ashton

[keyehaw]

@netox777 Without Williamson, Ron Asheton would not have played on Raw Power. So respect, punk.

[Lieu3C4]

Searching2destroY , honey honey yeah yeah: evocative lives.

[leeKorrigan]

Que es esa mierda de piano de fondo? los stooges o iggy nunca sonaron asi de limpios..no tiene sentido..bueno si, el comercial..

[wandererlain]

I LOVE this man! He never ages!

[redtorso]

to my opinion ....piano ( in Rock music but mainly in Stooges sound) SUCKS ...... piano never belonged to Stooges music ....that's ONLY my opinion ....

[frankty67]

@redtorso

Iggy and The Stooges used the piano on tour in '73/'74 Raw Power tour.

I agree about your opinion about the piano in rock(in most cases).

Pick up a copy of 'Mettalic KO'-Iggy and The Stooges Last Live Show in 1974.Great bootleg thats been around forever.The piano is pretty cool on that show.

[redtorso]

@frankty67 The concert/tapes that you mentionned surfaced in the lates 70's thanks to french rock promoter Marc Zermati, ! Back in those days The Late Lester Bangs rated the Michigan Palace Live concert as the most important ever !!!! I'm pretty sure that he would have appreciated the Carlton's Easy Action label "Live at the N.Y Electric Circus 71 " !!!!!! No PIANO on thoses tapes .....

[frankty67]

@redtorso

Lester Bangs was my all time fav rock writer....

Id love to hear that 1971 Stooges Live at Electric Circus.

I thought there wasnt much(or any) live Stooges 1971.I think I heard or read

the Stooges in 1971 had both Ron Ashton & James Williamson on guitars.That had to be killer.

Must of been like the brief period The Yardbirds had both Page & Beck together live in '66. They released Stooges live in Unganos NY I think 1970.Cant wait to get that.

[fenixlespaulcustom]

How can a person's body and face age so differently? Iggy is a phenomenon :D

[hershysquirts187]

the true greatest band ever. this gets my blood pumpin.

[purorockhard9]

This piano of shit does that the song loses his hardness

[hockeyplayer168]

Holy shit that was some messy guitar...

[sisterdiggins]

Oh yeah - piano all over the place in I wanna be your dog! Not out of place at all.

[hippidyhoffider]

I feel like this is the retirement home version of this song

[hollow170]

漫画のウッドストックに出てくるロウパワーってバンドはこれを元­にしたのかなｗ

[jmatt781]

Fucking awesome, nuff said!

[Innocuoustroll]

Iggy Pop is nearly 64 now, he's an OAP. No one seems to have told him that. STILL has by far and away the most raw energy of any performer Ive seen.

[stabber63]

seriously iggy, y bother bringing a shirt... huh?

[MCWaxMax]

Maaan, this guy is totally freakin out^^ When I'm 62, I also want to have such a great condition^^

[douchebag21]

how the fuck did he develop such a muscular taut body ??? drugs or exercise ? lol

[WarGodIII]

FREAKIN' AWESOME!!! THANKS FOR THIS!!! IGGY = GOD!!!

[MrPekingCat]

1) The Stooges really should hire a backing guitarist to more fully capture the live sound of what was recorded so many years back.

2)Not a strong enough ovation on the part of the audience for Iggy and the band. These boys only created the most immortal piece of recorded rock and roll music. If twenty thousand or so 'cunts' could scream their throats out for the Beatles, surely they can for the Stooges!

[DhaenensG]

Drummer should get himself a drumroadie

His cymbalstand broke in the beginning of the song

I've had this one during a live gig and the cymbal just smacked in my face

Thank God I was full of energy, so didn't feel a thing of it and just kept going

[britturner]

Who's on tambourine? The original did have a lot.

[gwugluud]

Lose the piano. Lose the piano.

[guitardrumskate]

the guitar needs no be louder

[spicyMcHAGGIS9green]

I don't think Iggy owns any shirts.

[goofyskater180]

I'm saddened that im not seeing any recognition for mike watt in these comments...

[spicyMcHAGGIS9green]

@goofyskater180 Dude, Watt is my fucking inspiration for even picking up the bass. Without him, I wouldn't be the bass player I am today.

[goofyskater180]

@spicyMcHAGGIS9green thats WATT i was looking for haha, i can also tell by your name your a dropkick murphy's fan. high five

[Pellinore1990]

David bowie and iggy had sex. ;)

[rifleviejo]

@Pellinore1990 and bowie and jagger, and lennon and epstein xD they all had a gay face once in life fosho

[nnbbkkets]

もたっとしてんなぁ・・



[HotGeneration100]

This drummer is the worst drummer in the world

[LaiskaKettu]

@HotGeneration100 fuck you.

[wherethefacesshine]

@HotGeneration100 Thats Scott Asheton and he's a fucking awesome drummer.

[19CJMQ77]

he's old,they say...

[JesseLyon13]

Whoever thought putting piano in this live was a good idea...was wrong.

[Halkbi]

@JesseLyon13 In case you didn't know, the guy who's playing the piano in this video is Scott Thurston. He was in The Stooges in the post-Raw Power era, recruited by James Williamson. He also played the guitar on Iggy's album New Values. His piano playing can be heard on countless post-Raw Power bootlegs.

[JesseLyon13]

@Halkbi I didnt know, thanks for the insight. Im sure he sounded great on the original recordings, the mix is just very bad here, piano and tambourine are way too loud.

[jowo13]

@Halkbi oh yeah and did you copy that right from wikipedia genius

[frankty67]

@JesseLyon13 Iggy and The Stooges toured with the piano on the '73/'74 Raw Power shows.

[MrStexe]

im italian fun .... im so really fun ... iggy = the best ---- thanck for gimme danger ... is great ... very great ....

[jimmyjazz82391]

@JesseLyon13 At least they're not putting in saxophone where it doesn't belong. Sorry, I like Steve Mackay as much as any other Stooges fan, but he should only be playing in songs from the second half of Fun House. Everywhere else, he seems out of place.

[robertsc95]

rubbish crowd. awesome song.

[JohnCannyNH]

Still shirtless.

Gotta love Iggy.

[zuss10r]

Aaaaah, if only he'd jumped on their tables and pissed in their champagne flutes...

[poughkeepsiejohn1]

I feel horrible that Ron Asheton never lived long enough to see this happen. But it was great to see James Williamson up there, too. He's a monster guitarist. Even Mike Watt was terrific---but will The Minutemen ever be inducted?

[afuckhead1]

@poughkeepsiejohn1 no there to awsome.... :D

[Koolkitties]

That's some crazy-ass drummers.

[TheGuitarzero777]

@Shubba12 the RHCP are awsome but iggys is so much better.

[edrixie]

THANX HALKBI FOR PUTTING THE LINK ON EACH PERFORMANCE., THATS VERY HELPFUL.

AWESOME UPLOAD.

(SENOR ROTTE/PHIL.VIOLATORS)

thegroovyfloyds

[Shubba12]

the red hot chili peppers version is sooo much better

[Stephanage]

@Shubba12 Are you stupid

[JohnnyFriendly]

sounds more like pub rock than punk rock...

What they should have done is a 3 hr rendition of We Will Fall instead. That would certainly have upset a lot of people (which is what punk was meant to be about in the first place)

[TheSickLullabies8290]

@JohnnyFriendly but dont you understand? the stooges arent punk, they're just an awsome rock & roll band, punk was a term created by the moneymen to sell the mindless noise version of rock & roll to the kids they alienated in the first place, any band that goes out fo its way to be 'punk' and piss people off are nothing more than a gang of pousers with instruments. there is only rock & roll, everything else is a variation of

[JohnnyFriendly]

@TheSickLullabies8290 well by your definition, the stooges were a gang of posers since that's exactly what they did during their prime - deliberately piss people off (and made great music, true, but that was only one part of it)

Also, who exactly were the moneymen that supposedly invented punk? It was pretty small-scale back in the '70s. If you'd wanted to make money back then, "inventing punk" wouldn't really have been a sound financial move.

[TheSickLullabies8290]

@JohnnyFriendly guess i worded that wrong eh? they didnt invent punk, they came up with the label and slapped it on every band that formed in that time, once they caught on there was money in it. and the stooges never called themselves punks to my knowledge, everyone else did.

however i do appriciate you not flying off the handle at me with an endless barrage of fuck you's and other pointless vulgarities, seems intelligent conversation is going out of syle on the internet

[JohnnyFriendly]

@TheSickLullabies8290 Thanks, bro’. I just find this kind of debate more interesting

Back to said debate, although the origins of the term “Punk” is murky at best it was definitely not invented by any money men! It was something that arose organically and came to represent a sound and an attitude (real or not) of which the Stooges were among the innovators. In its time it was edgy and confrontational - doubt you could say that about this performance here (my point in my 1st comment)

[TheSickLullabies8290]

@JohnnyFriendly i yield haha, i believe i was focusing on the aftermath of punk when all the crap started to fill the genre, im ashamed of myself for forgetting not only the stooges, but amazing bands like the clash and the buzzcocks

[fuckamericanidiot]

piano? why?

[meowtrox]

woah at age 60

[bozocyclops]

Man, this is disappointing. You'd think Williamson would have nailed those guitar parts after 35 years. It's such a shame to see him this rusty. He's my favorite guitar player, but honestly I can play that shit better than he can now.

[lbguitz2]

@bozocyclops I'd give james a break since he quit playing live a long time ago after Raw Power in '74. I'm just glad he's back with his les paul custom.

[ezekieloak]

@bozocyclops Yeah, have some compassion. I knew this old lady once who had Parkinson's. She used to play the piano and would cry when she remembered it. I'm just saying, man.

[keyehaw]

@bozocyclops You can't do it now. I guarantee it.

[LesfleursdumalSofia]

Great as always! Lovable Iggy...

[broken1394]

fucking ImMeNse!!!! Iggy defies nature with his looks!!

[MyGodzilla99]

they should've been inducted as soon as this song was made

[guitarguy182182182]

the piano's kinda ruining the vibe of the song...or keyboard whatever

[SupperOfTheMightyOne]

The Stooges could've been inducted in 1994....

Genesis could've been inducted in 1994....

The Hollies could've been inducted in 1987....

Three legendary bands, and it takes until 2010 to get inducted? Just goes to show that the RNRHOF is a joke....

[TheGoetiaQueen]

you got fat

[posthumanhero]

mike watt is such a tool in this band.........it's sad.....he never even got a credit on the cd..........i wonder if iggy lets him play the a string sometimes.

[odinwillbeatyoudown]

the fact that bands like the Ramones and the Sex Pistols who were so influenced by the Stooges were inducted before the Stooges is kind of absurd. I'm happy to see my favorite band get their recognition and keep rocking. I hope I can see them soon

[mkhalp444]

Iggy and the Stooges playing to a pacified crowd... The antithesis of everything that this should be. Sad to see that this Establishment was able to neuter this momentous occasion and reduce it to nothing but a main attraction at a freak side show. Fuck the Rock'n'Roll hall of fame.

[maximumpain1]

@mkhalp444 agreed, totally what this band shouldn't be about

[touchandgod]

Yep. But "I Wann Be Your Dog" kicked the establishment's ass, put the balls back in that shit.

[LBJstevenash13]

they should have been inducted forever ago

[theplourde]

Ron was here in spirit. Everyone could feel it.

[opiathable]

look out on this granpas and iGGY a f..k of difference :D

[windrix1]

RHF Sucks!!!

[BiggayMafia]

I used to see the original Stooges in bars. They finally got their due. I just wish Ronnie could have been there.The Stooges were and are the best rock band in the world.To see what Ron Asheton did outside the Stooges search Destroy All Monsters, and Dark Carnival both bands had Ron and his brother Scott "Rock" Asheton amd Mike Davis from the MC5 on bass with Niagra as lead singer. Detroit has some of the most unappreciated talent in the world. We do have the best musicians.

[WillDrache]

...idk those piano parts make this seem like a rolling stones song right? and i can tell James was a little rusty. he nailed 7/8 of the whole guitar parts

[bikebrian]

Pianist is Scott Thurston, who was with the Stooges way back when. More recently, he's been touring with Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers as a sideman. Plays guitar too.

[danmcc08]

@bikebrian this was Scotty's second performance at the HoF induction. He was also at Petty's.

[bikebrian]

Didn't know that. I should have read all of the comments. Thanks!

[Flipper79able]

It's funny that all the Stooges look old now and Iggy still looks and acts like a young man.

[KobeJames9876]

one of the most important bands in history

[GuiTheMasterXP]

dam i was trying to watch metallica

[sixhundredsixtyfive]

FUCKYEAH!

[teden20]

that is straight up. and by the way, i do not have an agenda. i love the fucking stooges.

[Trawman]

Iggy Pop has still an incredible energy! He is ever a fantastic performer and a singer with a magnetic voice!

[publicanimal]

The reunion that never should have happened.

[Consociatio]

geniales... voy a verles en Madrid el 30 de abril!!

[MrHellzapoppin]

Yes!!! Wonderful!!! Iggy & The Stooges featuring the legendary James Williamson on guitar!!! All hell's a poppin' on this tune!!!

[WisemanLes]

One of the top five rock tunes ever. Scott is a great drummer. I love what one critic wrote: "In the 30 years since the Stooges broke up, the drummer hasn't learned a thing. Thank God!" James is great, too. Never thought that would happen. I am proud to say that I saw them at the Pender Ballroom in Vancouver in 1973.

[MisterLachstar]

@WisemanLes hahahaha That's brilliant! Where'd you read that?

[teden20]

is this turning into a Vegas act? i mean... we are talking about the Stooges. the fucking Stooges.. hey, good sound. it is about time, but the Stooges could not care less. the stooges are ugly, raw, and they don't for permission. be a stooge.

[touchandgod]

Vegas act my ass. Iggy rocked the house, got the lardassed old fucks at the Hall of Fame to get up and come on stage. Took a lot of work, those guys are some SERIOUS (brothas and sistahs ah said some SERIOUS) stuffed shirts, but he managed. The Stooges rocked.

[JohnnyMonstro]

! prato de ataque ja caiu na prmeira batida!! hauahuha!!!

STOOGE

[WildSalsicha]

What a wonderful song, i can fell it on my skin!

[WildSalsicha]

Eles realmente mereciam! Parabéns.

[zigbean12]

Glad they finally got their due. It should have happened a long time ago when Ron Asheton could have been there.

[Halkbi]

I read somewhere that prior to Ron's death, James was willing to guest with The Stooges at the Rock N' Roll Hall of Fame (or some equal event). That could have paved the way for a two guitaris reunion, which would have been truly awesome!

Ron vs. James - I don't think that anyone of them is better than the other, but together they could have completed each other and recreate that short lived '71 sound.

[RONHILLMAN1]

@Halkbi - THE FIRST TIME I SAW THESE GUYS WAS AT THE GRANDE BALLROOM TRIPPIN ON ACID, HOLY SHIT!!!!!

[danmcc08]

This is the second time Thurston has played as a member of an inducted act. He also did as a member of his current band, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers

[sgtpepper1138]

Scott seems like a really cool guy, good musician as well.

[bebirock77]

GREAT GREAT GREAT !!!!!!
