January 12, 1970. Iggy Pop.

Scott Kempner (The Dictators):

I couldn't stay the same after the first twenty seconds of that evening—and, I must say, I didn't stay. We went there again the next evening, the same songs sounded, but in a completely new way. Nothing to do with last night, and it's not about rehearsals or sound check, they were just alive, born right in front of your eyes and came to their students right here, in the middle of the evening, right in front of you... And no matter how many times I went to them, it was repeated every time - not like yesterday They have never played like this before and will never play like this. Iggy put his life and soul into every performance. It seemed to me every time that blood was oozing out of him. There was, damn it, real blood in every performance.

From that moment on, rock and roll couldn't mean less to me. No matter what I did, the blood was on the paper, on the strings, because if I gave less, it turns out to be a complete, complete, b** d, loss of time. McNeil Legs. "Please Kill Me!"
