:aliensmile: Iggy & the Stooges will play DTE in August

FREE PRESS POP MUSIC CRITICThree decades after they turned off the amps and left the name to history, one of Detroit’s most notorious bands is headed back to town.
A reunited Iggy Pop & the Stooges will play the DTE Energy Music Theatre on Aug. 14, a date confirmed Tuesday by sources close to the band and by Clear Channel Entertainment.
Tickets are expected to run from $22 for lawn seats to $48 for pavilion seats. Sale info is not yet available. Also scheduled for the bill: New York noise-rock outfit Sonic Youth. Several contemporary Detroit rock bands may be invited to play as well.
The concert comes amid a flurry of new activity for Iggy, guitarist Ron Asheton and drummer Scott Asheton, who formed in Ann Arbor in 1967 and quickly became one of the area’s leading live acts. The Asheton brothers joined Iggy in January for studio sessions in Florida — a move that has transformed into a full-fledged Stooges album set for recording this summer.
The album will be released by Virgin Records, home to Iggy Pop’s solo work since the mid-1990s.
The threesome was joined by bassist Mike Watt for a well-received performance at April’s Coachella festival in California, where they charged through songs from the group’s first two albums.
The night at DTE could be a special one for hometown rock fans. Considered by many to be the most influential band ever to emerge from Michigan’s famously fertile rock scene, the Stooges have enjoyed renewed international attention since the latest breakout of Detroit garage rock.
theres a tiny bit of info of the sonic youth site about that but i didnt see any point in posting it as there wasnt much to say thanks for the info a lot more use than the sonic youth site
I just saw that Iggy will be doing a gig in Hamburg next Sunday, the only German gig of this tour, but I’m not really sure if I should go…
If it was with the Ashetons & Watt, it surely wouldn’t be a question, but I didn’t find anything about who will be in his band on this tour
as far as I can see, the next Stooges gig is in Detroit in August…
