I have always maintained that Iggy Pop is the Heavyweight Champion of Rock & Roll.

Rock n' roll unchained a nation and revolutionized radio and the record industry, not to mention the motion picture business.

For me, Memphis has always been a city that holds a great deal of meaning and also leads me to a lot of thinking. Besides Sun Studio, which helped put rock n' roll on the map all over the world, the legendary Stax Studio also called Memphis home.

Questioning anything and everything, to me, is punk rock.

My goal is to be the undisputed Heavyweight Champion of the World.

The Ruts were a great punk rock band from England whose songs were as excellent as their time together was short.
