This  is a struggle which never ends.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The John Peel Lecture has  previously been given by Pete Townshend of The Who, Billy Bragg and  Charlotte Church. Iggy Pop\u2019s speech will be broadcast on BBC4 and BBC  Radio 6 Music, on which he has a weekly show. Tickets for the lecture,  on 13 October at the BBC\u2019s Media City studios, have been priced at \u00a399.<\/p>\n<p>Peel  was the first DJ in the UK to play Iggy Pop\u2019s music when he played  Little Doll by the rocker\u2019s group The Stooges in August 1969.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI  get the feeling that John was the kind of guy who would have done his  job for nothing, as long as he felt great about it, so we have that in  common,\u201d said the man sometimes referred to as the godfather of punk.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cExamining  his life, I was interested to learn that he found his voice in large  part through his wanderings in America. Sometimes it takes strange  circumstances to provide a mirror\u00a0in which to find yourself. Anyway,  he&#8217;s done a lot to give others a voice, and that&#8217;s the most important  gift you can give.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Source: The Independent<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Iggy Pop is to make his public speaking debut with a lecture dedicated the late&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[23],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4641","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-music-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4641","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4641"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4641\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4641"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4641"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4641"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
