Iggy Pop dressing room door

“That’s The Idiot tour. It’s the tour Blondie were on with Iggy and Bowie. That was great. It was 1977, but I’m not sure where. It was a great series of concerts and a huge thing for us to be involved with at the time. Or even now, if we did it again! It was terrific. Bowie wasn’t playing a set, he was playing keyboards in Iggy’s band, in the background, but everyone knew that he was there. It was generous of him to do that kind of support for Iggy. They’d been friends for a long time. Bowie was just enjoying travelling around being in that situation. He was really interested in the punk scene. I remember talking to him a lot about all the other bands in New York.”
