[url= http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/music/a140566/stooges-guitarist-found-dead-aged-60.html ]Report on Digital Spy[/url] says a heart attack suspected.

The man who played probably the greatest riff in the history of rock music (No Fun).

Also tonight I saw Iggy advertising insurance on the TV and almost rubbed my eyes like a comedy drunk in disbelief.

Perhaps the Churchill dog will take Ron's place in the band.

Without Ron Asheton in a band with him Iggy did little of any note. Asheton was awesome. If it was a heart attack I can only presume he saw Iggy's insurance ad.

Hey, that's sad news. Great guitarist in one of the greatest bands ever.

Yeah, that insurance ad is bizarre. How did the agency pitch that one to Swift?!

I'd like to see the out takes where he grinds a broken bottle into his chest and says "I'm insured against that".
