When I was 13, I daydreamed about dancing amidst sweaty crowds at a rock show, as I listened religiously to L7’s “Bricks Are Heavy” and The Stooges’ “Raw Power” on vinyl.

You naturally slow down, you know it’s a bad situation, you want to see if there’s some blood…”įor the raw power tour Ron actually switched over to BASS when Iggy brought on James Williamson for guitar duties.
