Iggy is a legend. Nobody is like him. I would add that Josh Homme is a fantastic musician. He can sing and play almost everything.

I hope to have his type of energy when I'm in my elder years....GO IGGY!

People say punk died a long time ago. As long as the founding men and women of punk are alive still, PUNK CAN NEVER DIE!

[@jesterd14]

This is why it's important to keep PBS funded, they produce shows like this that regular networks would never touch.

[@travishabursky4362]

Damn right, it is. This program got me into Iggy and made me realize how much of his stuff I already knew.

[@Dr.TJ_Eckleburg]

Yes yes, no other media outlet on planet earth would show a concert. The government needs to fund this.

There woke and anti caucasian...they won't ever see a dime of my money.

Maybe if they haven’t morphed into state funded media propaganda and left insanity I’d agree but sadly they are lost.

So glad I saw their gig at the Albert Hall. I had a smile on my face the whole time. Fantastic production, the band looked so cool. My band supported Iggy on a UK tour in 88, I was down the front every night. Ooh, just noticed the bass player had trouble ending the song.

So it's basically just queens with Matt Helders playing Iggy Pop songs?

Jagger pretends to be Iggy Pop.

[@Johnnywhamo]

Jagger is a fucking putz, I love the Stones but Jagger is unwatchable with prancing a mincing around. WORST frontman there is as far a stage presence goes.

[@schwannies]

Jagger was Iggy Pop for years before Iggy Pop was Iggy Pop. Jagger's been doing his thing since 1963.

[@alejandroangeles8587]

Don't compare Iggy and Mick. Just respect both and shut up.

[@brentj.peterson6070]

Much better performer than singer. Almost more spoken word..

[@brianforgie7724]

Ya for sure. It fits his style. Saw him back in his prime in the late 70's early 80's his show was killer. Can't sing worth shit but you won't forget seeing him. Entertainer for sure.

[@p0llenp0ny]

Bass player kinda fucked it at the end there lol

[@toddnoble1936]

Huge Iggy fan. Somehow this missed the mark. All great musicians in their own right. The arrangements seem rushed. There is no breath or space in the music.

[@andrewrodriguez7727]

The most tamest crowd I've ever seen...

Thanks for wearing clothes….now I l o v e s you…😅

How weird it is for Troy and Dean to be switched from their QOTSA instrumentation.

[@DiamondLifer]

pierce holyfield they aren’t switched. They both play guitar and keys and other instruments in Queens as well.
