Accepting his gong, Iggy said: 'It’s been a long dinner, so I’m not gonna whip out my d**k.'Alright, you know, thank you to everybody who has strong feelings about music so that when you hear something you don’t like you wanna f**king kill somebody and when you hear something you like you wanna f**k everybody.'He also dedicated his award to Stooges guitarist Ron Asheton, who tragically died last year. He said of the guitarist: 'He was my high school skipping rope buddy, we were pot smoking, LSD taking Stooges together, and I feel really bad. Hey Ron.'Ronnie was given an Outstanding Contribution award for his 'ageless presence on the scene' at the event while Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham was posthumously given the Tommy Vance Inspiration Award.
