Iggy Pop (born James Newell Osterberg Jr., April 13, 1947) is an American singer, songwriter, musician, and actor. Known for his wild, unpredictable stage presence, shirtless performances, and raw, aggressive music, he is widely regarded as one of the most influential figures in rock history — the ultimate proto-punk icon who helped pave the way for punk, alternative, and modern rock. THE STOOGES ERA (1967–1974, reunions later) Iggy formed The Stooges in Ann Arbor, Michigan.

Alice Cooper was an American rock band formed in Phoenix, Arizona in 1969 (originally called The Nazz, then renamed). They pioneered shock rock with their outrageous theatrical stage shows featuring guillotines, fake blood, snakes, baby dolls, and horror imagery. Musically, they delivered hard-driving glam-tinged rock with catchy choruses and rebellious attitude.
