Iggy Pinched -- Stooges Make Off with Axes

Posted Aug 5th 2008 8:06AM by TMZ Staff

Someone had a lust for loot -- Iggy Pop's loot.

A rental truck that was carrying Iggy's stuff got jacked after a Montreal concert, and the thieves made off with "tens of thousands" of instruments and stage gear that belonged to Iggy and his band the Stooges. According to the Detroit Free Press, one of the instruments was a priceless bass guitar that was destined for the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame.

The Stooges will play their next gig -- tomorrow night in Toronto -- using rented and donated equipment.

7. We need Ted Nugent to round up a posse and go after those guitar rustlers! Shameful, rippin' off Iggy and his Stooges. I don't know much about his music but he is funny in the Coffee and Cigaretts film short with Tom Waits. In it, he and Tom tell each other they have quit smoking...and then proceed to smoke as they drink their coffee, saying it is okay to smoke now that they have quit and don't need to smoke, lol.
