Joan Jett
A girl can do what she wants to do / And that's what I'm gonna do.

Joan Jett
I learned how to scream from Marc Bolan.
Joan Jett

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

Joan Jett
Well, I'll tell you, I don't know how aware teenagers are of me. I think it really depends on the teenager and how well-versed in music they are and what kind of music they like.
Joan Jett
If you really believe in yourself, you cannot listen to other people.
Joan Jett
I know music is subjective.
Joan Jett
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.
Joan Jett
The better your base is, and the more you know from experience, the better off you'll be when you try and make the big move.
Joan Jett
I had a blast doing the Warped Tour, but it's good to be home, for sure.
Joan Jett
Egotistical people are not pretty. We all know that, I'm sure everybody knows an egotistical person someplace.
Joan Jett
When I came back to it, we amicably separated from Warner Bros. I just picked up where I left off, trying to write the rest of this record. It took awhile to get out.
