Don't know what to expect from a new album but I'll definately catch the tour. Saw them up in NY with Mike Watt on bass and it was freaking great. Hope he's still on board.
IGGY POP is currently locked away with the reunited STOOGES writing new material for the band's upcoming album. Produced by STEVE ALBINI (NIRVANA, PIXIES, PJ HARVEY), the as-yet-untitled album, due next year, will be the Stooges' first in over thirty years. JACK WHITE has also been enlisted to produce several cuts. Since reforming in 2003, the Stooges have only played sporadic dates, but the band will schedule a proper tour to coincide with the release. The band is already set to appear at the Nightmare Before Christmas Festival, December 8th through the 10th in Somerset, England, curated by SONIC YOUTH's THURSTON MOORE.

Pitchfork suggest that Mike Watt is still on board. On a side note, I was listening to Ball-Hog or Tugboat last night, Against the 70s is an awesome tune.
