I mean, here you have millions getting a chance to hear Ron, and he never did anything but play barres.
The same goes for original Fun House saxophonist Steve MacKay who was also onstage (& appears on The Weirdness), but unfortunately, played nothing but a straight-ahead simple blues riff the whole time.

I suspect they chose that to fit in with the restrictions for performing on a TV show like that. No wild guitar heroics or antics, just a solid song that may go over quite well with the viewers. You could consider the Stooges performing anywhere on TV a small victory in itself.
