I don't know if I get recognized necessarily, though I do get looked at a lot - but I don't know if it's because of who I am, or if people just think I look weird.
Quote by -Joan Jett
I want to be singing to everybody, and I want everybody to think that I'm singing to them. Guys, girls and everyone in between.
Quote by -Joan Jett
The media says that equality for women has arrived, but if you look around, you still don't see girls playing guitars and having success with it.
Quote by -Joan Jett
Before I settled on music, I wanted to be an archaeologist, an astronaut, all sorts of really diverse things.
Quote by -Joan Jett
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.
Quote by -Joan Jett
So now 20 years later people want us to get together so they can take shots at all these old babes trying to get back some youth. I mean come on; I've been there. I know what the press would do.
Quote by -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.
Quote by -Joan Jett
I sure saw a lot of kids that I'm sure didn't know a lot about us, or we were definitely new to them. The kids who came up to me afterward, we'd talk about music, sign a lot of autographs. So I'm sure we made a lot of new fans.
Quote by -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.
Quote by -Joan Jett
Blackheart Records being 25 years old represents staying power and the fact that we weren't able to get a record out through conventional means, so we had to create this record company to put out our records if we wanted to be a band that had records to give out to their fans.
Quote by -Joan Jett
I've been doing this stuff for so long it's the one aspect of my life that I've paid attention to and really sort of not paid attention to the rest of it.
Quote by -Joan Jett
And you have a record company behind it, this is a key too, you need people to fight for your records, at least a little bit. So if you have a great song, it's catchy, and you've got a little bit of help, I think that's all you need. But there hasn't been that in music.
Quote by -Joan Jett
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.
Quote by -Joan Jett
Why there aren't people out there willing to have fun playing rock 'n' roll. I just don't get it.
Quote by -Joan Jett
Partly, I like a bad reputation. But I also want a reputation of being a good person.
Quote by -Joan Jett
Obviously, some people are thick, and they're not gonna see what they don't want to see.
Quote by -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.
Quote by -Joan Jett
I think I look better in darker clothes. And maybe the fact that I wear black so much makes me more aware of putting people at ease.
Quote by -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.
Quote by -Joan Jett
I do not knowingly kill any living thing - including insects or rodents - and I thank my food for sustaining me.
Quote by -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.
Quote by -Joan Jett
Cutting meat out of your diet is the best thing you can do for animals and your own health.
Quote by -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.
Quote by -Joan Jett
I've done some acting and a lot of different things, but mostly it's the music.
Quote by -Joan Jett
I think what I'm going to do is get more balance in my life to still be able to go out and play the hard rock 'n' roll and do what I like to do in music.
Quote by -Joan Jett
I'm not necessarily intimidated by really jocky guys. I can talk football with them, you know what I mean?
Quote by -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.
