A lot of the touring stuff has become a drag. Traveling itself is a drag. Anyone who's been to an airport knows that.

More quotes by Joan Jett
Women play cellos and violins in symphony orchestras. They're playing Beethoven and Bach. What do you mean they can't play rock and roll?
Joan Jett
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.'
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
The Runaways' audience was 90 percent male. That was kind of depressing...Why don't women-our own gender-come out and support us?
Joan Jett
I love school. I was a great student.
Joan Jett
I feel like it's my job to carry the torch.
Joan Jett
I don't like to say where I'll be in 10 years.
Joan Jett
Happiness doesn't necessarily lie in material things. You just have to put yourself in a position to be happy. If you can do what you love for a living, that's a good start.
Joan Jett
If you are gonna live your life, just try to not be crazy, have fun but have some focus and some purpose and try to know what that is. If you don't know now, try to figure it out.
Joan Jett
Don’t let anyone tell you that you can’t do something. Make your own victories. Make your own mistakes.
Joan Jett
One of the mistakes I made was believing that the rock 'n' roll genre as a genre was much more free than the whole pop or R&B scene.
Joan Jett
It's hard to have a dialogue when you're name-calling.
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
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
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
Only because The Runaways were my baby and there's no reason to get it back together except to totally have fun. If that's not the goal, then I don't want to do it.
Joan Jett
You got nothing to lose. You don't lose when you lose fake friends.
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.
Joan Jett
I think the one-on-one gigs connecting with the fans - is the most important thing. That will help build your fan base. They'll talk about you, and word spreads. Those things are just as important as knowing how to play an E chord.
Joan Jett
