Paul Dinello and Stephen Colbert giggle off to the side while Iggy Pop utilizes the ENTIRE studio space to strut his stuff while performing, “Job.”
What a jam packed episode. Loved how Stephen struggled to contend with the free spirited, shirt-absconding Iggy Pop. Also enjoyed Iggy’s rambling around the studio, and audience interaction. We’ll be bringing you lots more, but let us know what you thought of the performance.
Stephen’s Worst Sports Nightmare
- That’s right. He came out as black AND gay. Even more shocking, he came out as a player for the Washington Wizards. You got to wonder how his parents took it.
- Folks,this is my worst sports nightmare. I knew once we allowed soccer it would turn all the other sports gay.
- And now that it’s possible that a pro athlete could be gay, how can I relate to them? Suddenly it’s like a 7 foot tall world class athlete and I have nothing in common.
“Great, New Zealand’s got gay marriage. Now, 9 guys camping in the woods obsessed with jewelry seems kinda gay. “
The Word – We Shall Undermine
- Exactly! MLK had it easy. That mountaintop he went to? It probably had a chair lift. The man loved hitting the slopes. [Ski at last! Ski at last!]
- Amen brother! A new era of civil disobedience. They may legalize gay marriage, but I refuse to fall in love and marry another man at a fabulous destination wedding in Corsica on the beach, everyone wearing cream colored linen, no shoes at sunset with a steel drum band. [We Shall Overplan!]
Yelp Prison Reviews
“I mean that is not fair, my show is nothing like a prison. 80% of these people have not been shived. “
Interview
- Stephen: When you started your career, there was no word like called “punk” – you weren’t trying to be a punk band, you just had a band. What were you trying to do?
- Iggy: Trying to be free. High school, was like college, was like military, was like vaudeville, was like being locked up, was like everything was going to be more of the endless same, and we didn’t want to obey.
****
- SC: Why did you first start taking off your shirt for performances?
- Iggy: The pharaoh never wore a shirt.
- SC: At this point, could you wear a shirt or would your body reject it like a bad organ?
- Iggy: It rejects it. I try. I think about it. And then it just rejects it.
Musical Performance: “Job”
Iggy sings with a gainfully employed member of the Colbert Nation. “I’ve got a job! I’ve got a job!”
