Featured quote - Mikey Welsh recounting a June 2001 experience meeting Iggy Pop backstage after they both played the Hultsfred Festival.

This big entourage came wheeling around the corner of our trailer... it was Iggy, my hero, surrounded by several huge dudes and more than a few very pretty Asian women... I wasn’t sure I could speak coherently, but when Iggy walked right in front of me, I managed to say something like, "that was fucking beautiful, man"... He stopped. He looked into my eyes... walked over and kissed me full on the mouth, and then gave me a hug... Not a word... Then he turned around a walked to his dressing room.
