Concert Review: Iggy Pop - Post Pop Depression @ Paramount Theatre - Seattle, WA 03/28/16

Greetings! Queen City Steph, here, glad to be back from a long winter hibernation.  Lately I've felt a change here in Seattle.  Since last Monday, March 28th, when Iggy Pop launched his Post Pop Depression tour here at the Paramount Theatre, it's as if he summoned some Norse God-like powers to hurl those gloomy Pacific Northwest rainclouds straight out of the universe and let the sun shine in (finally).  The weather-folk might call that a high pressure system, but I call it a Post-Pop-Depression-Buzz.  Tropical Depression Iggy, from Miami-F-L-A, blew right in with a post punk force not to be reckoned with and I've been on a high, trying to catch my breath, ever since!
