it's not so much an age thing as much as it's about staying true to what they do, i mean, iggy's been out of it for like 30 years now, chasing trends and being told what to do, it's pretty hard to go back to that "don't give a fuck" attitude the stooges had when the bulk of his career is based on ill advices.
the proof that age has nothing to do is the reunion shows, everyone raves about them, they still can play and perform...they just can't be the stooges.
and the reason yow might come out and do his shit and get away with it again today is because yow hasn't done much of a musical career, let alone trying to stay relevant. in other words, he's still yow, whether iggy POP can't go back to being iggy stooge.
