no, Iggy's undead.

One of the best and coolest rock guitarists ever. At his best he was everything that I like about rock music. R.I.P.

really sad to hear about this, r.i.p.

awe, me and a buddy were just talking about the stooges last night at the bar. ain't that a bitch. rip indeed.

Wow, I can't believe it. I wonder what the hell happened.

RIP Ron. :'7(

Man... talk about irreplaceable. Even when he was in his late fiftie's dude could still play those stooges' songs the way no other professional guitar guys iggy had over the years ever could.
Iggy better not continue with the Stooges name, not only because it would be a flat out lie, but also because its just disrespectful.
In any case.. R.I.P yer playin spoke to me at a time when I was real confused in my life (as stupid as that may sound, everything about those first 3 stooges albums spoke to me)

wow im devastated. Now i really regret not seeing the stooges live on their reunion tour. their will never be another band like them again only imitators.

Damn, I just saw this thread - was posting on http://www.sonicyouth.com/gossip/showthread.php?t=28845 .

i guess the lesson to be learned is that fat dudes shouldn't play in bands with mike watt.

That's pretty funny but I just can't laugh at it for some reason. Too soon I guess.

rock loose a great guitar...and problaby a great person. very sad. RIP ( rock in peace )!

I dont much like you. Kind of funny though, if a little soon

I have no opinion of you.

A little anecdote a friend of mine just e-mailed me:

so sad. i feel honored having seen him play.

RIP Ron.

A total guitar genius
Glad I got to see him play live

RIP

This news is somewhere else in this forum. Anyway... R.I.P.

Damn, I can believe it's true, I thought this thread was a (bad) joke...
Well...
Rest in peace, man.

By the way, this is the record my friend did with Ron:
