The kings of punk rock ‘The Stooges’ have been added to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame organizers announced overnight. After 7 nominations over the past decade they will be finally inducted alongside ABBA, Genesis, the Hollies and Jimmy Cliff on March 15th.
In an interview with Rolling Stone Iggy said:

I had about two hours of a strong emotional reaction after hearing the news. It felt like vindication. Then I kind of scratched my head and thought, ‘Am I still cool? Or is that over now?’
