Something happens, you can't even put your finger on it, and then you don't quite feel the same way anymore. All of a sudden, there's fights or something and you are going who is this person? I've seen this happen to other people and it has happened to me.

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.

I don't know if I miss it per se, but I do miss the fact that there just doesn't seem to be any rock 'n' roll out there anyplace. Everything does seem kind of tame. It's even hard in Manhattan to go out and find a good band to go see.

In pop music, you say, 'You can do what you want to me.' Rock 'n' roll says, 'I'm gonna do what I want to you.'

A lot of people would say well that's not a bad reputation. you sound like a pussy and I would say yea. but I am passionate about music and being taken seriously about my music, so if you're going to mess with that, we have a problem.
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
I love to engage with people who come to see us.
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
God, I always just think of myself as a jeans and T-shirt kind of person.
Joan Jett
Can't break free from the things that you do. I wanna walk, but I run back to you, that's why I hate myself for loving you.
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
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
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
Just be yourself and everything will fall in line, the way it's supposed to be. If you're yourself, that's the best thing you can do, because you can never go damn if I'd only been myself. Live an authentic life and you don't have to worry about your reputation.
