You want to have butterflies in your stomach, because if you don't, if you walk out onstage complacent, that's not a good thing.

More quotes by Joan Jett
I feel like it's my job to carry the torch.
Joan Jett
When you write songs you're commenting on love, you're commenting on sex, relationships, whatever it is that you decide to write about it. And I've wanted to write about politics or spiritual ideas for years.
Joan Jett
We were really grown up for our age and it was an incredible special band.
Joan Jett
You follow any family around, you're going to see elation, you're going to see disharmony.
Joan Jett
I think I look better in darker clothes. And maybe the fact that I wear black so much makes me more aware of putting people at ease.
Joan Jett
Success isn't one straight line - it's a ladder, and there's always another rung above you to reach out for. Like anything else, there are ups and downs.
Joan Jett
We always play clubs. It's not something that I feel above. Those are my favorite shows because they're intimate, they're tight, their sweaty, they're hot. You're close to the people. Those are my favorites.
Joan Jett
Def Leppard is obviously a different band that we are, but the music work well tighter. And the audiences seem work well together too. We are opening, but we're having a good time.
Joan Jett
Shaving my head was a millennium ritual, to not let it pass as just another New Year's Eve. A lot has happened to me in the last couple of years, personally and spiritually. I wanted to mark it for myself.
Joan Jett
Beyond just writing about falling in love and out of love and wanting to do certain things and going out and partying and all the things that I grew up writing about, I want to write about deeper things.
Joan Jett
A lot of people ask me why I don't expand and explore other musical areas, but I like the plain three- and four-chord rock-and-roll that I call the the semi-blues.
Joan Jett
Vegan With A Vengeance is on my kitchen shelf. This fun and creative book is delicious for people like me, who don’t eat pets.
Joan Jett
Other people will call me a rebel, but I just feel like I'm living my life and doing what I want to do. Sometimes people call that rebellion, especially when you're a woman.
Joan Jett
It's hard to have a dialogue when you're name-calling.
Joan Jett
I think it's what the times are demanding. If you're talking about the popular artists, they collaborate with a lot of different people and it seems to be in vogue now. It probably is indicative of the times.
Joan Jett
I think it's important to have mystique.
Joan Jett
I'm having fun opening up. Sort of struggling to get the audience into it. It's good. It makes you fight. Not fight like antagonistic. But fight for what you believe.
Joan Jett
I'd like to just be a little bit more open to making mistakes and not worrying about it so much.
Joan Jett
I love to engage with people who come to see us.
Joan Jett
I learned how to scream from Marc Bolan.
