Iggy Pop joined Metallica onstage at a gig in Mexico City. They joined forces to perform the song “T.V. Eye,” a track from The Stooges 1970 album “Fun House” .
“Metallica has much respect for the man coming out here to sing a song with us,” Metallica’s James Hetfield told the crowd. “And we’re grateful that he’s been able to be on this Mexico City tour with us. Please show your sign of respect and love for Mr. Iggy Pop.”

The ‘Loutallica’ experience marches on with both acts entertaining the crowd of the UK based show ‘Later…WithJools Holland.’ Their performance included the original track ‘Iced Honey’ from their recent ‘Lulu’ release and a cover of the Velvet Underground tune ‘White Light/White Heat.’
Prompted by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame 25th Anniversary Concert where Metallica and Lou Reed both performed in 2009, the two forces spoke about potentially working together on a future project and ‘Lulu’ was conceived.
With ‘Lulu’ receiving mixed reviews Metallica fans don’t really seem to be fully embracing this experimental amalgamation between the two iconic sounds, but that doesn’t seem to be slowing them down any.
‘Lulu’ sold only 13,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release.
