Saw Iggy in Boston 77', yeah Blondie opened the show, didn't sell out until WBCN announced Bowie would be in the band a few hours before show started. One of the greatest concerts ever! And I'm not just talking $7.50 general admission, walk in with a case of beer, or the contact high you got when that cloud of smoke rolled your way, Damn.

@leonakita those certainly arent the Sales Brothers (who look like their dad Soupy Sales, nothing like these 2) that took over from them during the Lust for Life tour. I saw Iggy once (the Ramones opened!) when Soupy introduced his boys & Iggy at the beginning of their set, honest (Boston Orpheum theatre in 80s). Iggy climbed a huge stack of amps..he was up insanely high in the air. Crazy, man.

Who was the guitarest here, Randy Gardiner?... Fresh off his Berlin stint, Bowie still sports his 'NAZI haircut and Euro dress style'. Dinah Shore, a big fan of Bowie's, makes damn sure the cameraman gets plenty of Bowie shots, but not one of the guitarist! This is a tamer version of Funtime, cleaned up for the 4 pm housewife venue, but I agree, its more accessible with Bowies background vocals, foreward front. The album cut is much less melodic and more, in your face, gutteral Iggy!

I stayed home in Grade 9 high school to watch this air at 9:am here in Toronto,Canada...then went to the concert a month or so later at the Seneca Field House ...
BLONDIE was the back-up act...she was hot ...Iggy pulled down an extremely tall lightstand and it almost cracked his head open...he spread some peanut butter all over his ass and chest area...what a nite!
Hugs...Gemma
