Happy Iggy Pop Day!!!!!!!

Today is Iggy Pop's 64th birthday.  If you were unaware and came into work, please plan an additional day off in observance of this holiday. 

For the people that are taking the day off, just to take a day off, you are probably wondering who Iggy is.  You would best know his work from the song "lust for life".  This song was featured in the movie Trainspotting and is the music from the commercials for Carnival Cruises.  You would also know him from the song "China Girl", that was made popular when David Bowie re-released it. 

Iggy and the Stooges are one of the most influential punk rock bands of the 70's and 80's.  Iggy's solo career has more highlights than I can list. 

Do yourself a favor and take this day to enjoy his work.  You will thank me.

  1. I missed this holiday. I will celebrate by listening to Search and Destroy much too loud at work right now.
