More quotes by Joan Jett
I had a blast doing the Warped Tour, but it's good to be home, for sure.
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
Disharmony is natural in any band.
Joan Jett
I leave for the show at least an hour ahead, and I do some vocal warm-ups, and that's pretty much it.

Radio has changed, there was a little bit of difference around the country and now that is gone and everything is uniform. That is not the only place it's happening in music, there's a lot of consolidation.
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 the songs I've recorded are songs I write.

Girls see these defined roles they're supposed to follow in life, but when I was a young child, my parents told me I could be anything.
Joan Jett
I think it's important to have mystique.
Joan Jett
So it was out of necessity that Blackheart was born. I think it's great that now, 25 years later, we're not only putting out our own music, but are able to put out music by other bands. That's really exciting for us.
Joan Jett
I wouldn't say no to other kinds of musical opportunities. I guess that it just depends on what it was or what it required me to do, and if I felt that it compromised my own soul.
Joan Jett
The follow your dreams thing is really important because so many people are railroaded into taking other paths by their family, their friends, people who should be supportive going, 'What are you talking about?' Even just seemingly regular career paths, but if it's not what people expect for you they kind of react funny.
Joan Jett
Get a book, so you know where to put your fingers. Otherwise it would be tough to learn. Also you have to fight through getting callouses on your fingers because it hurts, you are pressing your fingers on metal strings, they will hurt at first until you start building up callouses.
Joan Jett
I feel like it's my job to carry the torch.
Joan Jett
I grew up in a world that told girls they couldn't play rock 'n' roll.
Joan Jett
A lot of the touring stuff has become a drag. Traveling itself is a drag. Anyone who's been to an airport knows that.
Joan Jett
I know music is subjective.
Joan Jett
It's easier to sit there and say you don't like feminists because they don't have a sense of humor.
