We all make judgments on people, but some are much more brutal than others. It's easy to say, 'Ya know, I'm not crazy about what she's wearing,' but you don't have to be nasty about it, and you don't have to be public about it.
Joan Jett
I had a blast doing the Warped Tour, but it's good to be home, for sure.
Joan Jett
