Iggy Pop has announced an outdoor headline concert in London next summer with Blondie and Generation Sex.
The one-day event, titled Dog Day Afternoon, will take place at Crystal Palace Park on Saturday July 1, 2023.
Generation Sex features Billy Idol and Tony James of Generation X as well as Sex Pistols' Steve Jones and Paul Cook.
In a statement, Jones said, "Just every now and then we find time to get together with old pals from back in the day - purely just for the crack and to have fun. If it ain't fun then we ain't interested, life's too short. And it's a great bill with Iggy Pop and Blondie."
Blondie frontwoman Debbie Harry added, "Blondie and Iggy Pop… we are excited to reunite with our friend, the one and only Prince of Punk, Iggy, for this special show in Crystal Palace Park, London, next summer. Once more, with feeling!"
