The Stooges

The Stooges are an American rock band that was active from 1967 (Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA) to 1974, then reformed in 2003. The Stooges sold few records in their original incarnation and often performed for indifferent or hostile audiences. Nevertheless, The Stooges are often regarded as hugely influential in alternative rock, heavy metal and punk rock. Singer Iggy Pop and his wild onstage antics were often the main focus of attention. They reformed in 2003 with bassist Mike Watt replacing the deceased Dave Alexander to much critical and popular acclaim.
