Iggy Pop was born in Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA. In the 70s, David Bowie played keyboard on his first solo tour. He was an unannounced guest player. His group, The Stooges, although never a huge commercial success, was essential in the development of punk rock. In fact, the unifying trait of all the members of what were arguably the two greatest "punk" bands, the Ramones and the Sex Pistols, was their idolizing of Iggy and The Stooges. Had a cameo role on "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine" (1993). DS9 producer Ira Stephen Behr was at the time and is to this day a major Iggy Pop fan.
