STEVE JONES - JONES TO JOIN THE STOOGES?

JONES TO JOIN THE STOOGES?

British punk icon STEVE JONES has offered his services to IGGY POP as the LUST FOR LIFE hitmaker contemplates life after the death of THE STOOGES guitarist RON ASHETON. Asheton, 60, reportedly died from a heart attack on 6 January (09) - just months after reconciling with Pop for a Stooges comeback.
But Jones is keen to keep the band's plans on track after quitting his job as a Los Angeles DJ.
He tells the Los Angeles Times that he and Pop have been talking about Jones becoming an honorary member of The Stooges for upcoming tour dates.
