Rock Legends Passing the Cat

BOB DYLAN LOU REED LOU REED DAVID BOWIE DAVID BOWIE IGGY POP IGGY POP IAN CURTIS IAN CURTIS

A five-panel collage shows Bob Dylan meeting Lou Reed, Lou Reed meeting David Bowie, David Bowie interacting with Iggy Pop, Iggy Pop playing with a cat, and Ian Curtis appearing in a doorway. The joke is a mock chain of musical influence or succession that ends with Ian Curtis mysteriously descending or appearing, making the dramatic rock-star montage absurd. It is typically sent as a reaction to an unexpected connection between musicians or an escalating sequence of events.
