For some reason, I read that as Iggy is dead, so I started google-ing like crazy to know what happened. Then I seriously doubted your source. And your word.

I vaguely remember him doing an ad for them a year or so ago that was banned by the Advertising Standards Authority (or whatever they are called) as it implied he was insured with them and they had a policy of refusing insurance to professional musicians lol

Last week I had to hear Pearl Jam's "Black" as an instrumental in my supermarket. That's as sad as it can get ...
