1991: Living in the South of France. Re-reading a second-hand copy of Keep The Aspidistra Flying to Diamond Dogs in the background. A friend popping by to say that Iggy Pop is playing tomorrow in San Sebastian. A 160km hitch-hike and tickets via a tout. A couple of hours of Iggy singing and spitting on a Galician crowd. Forever regretting Sonia Orwell’s refusal to sanction Bowie’s musical version of 1984.
