Ive seen her live 6 times, mostly in the 80s and 90s. Joan Jett IS rock n roll personified. She always gives it 100% and I'm pretty sure she is doing exactly what she wants to do...playing LIVE with crowds on a heavy schedule all the time. It's what she DOES. I dont think she minds one bit not having a hit song right now or last year or whatever. She just loves the show and performing.

This happened to me in the 80ies or was it early 90ies? Alice Cooper was playing in my city and I didn't have a ticket, so I was out on the town drinking and suddenly these guys came in and I picked up on quickly that they weren't from my country. And we got to talking and drinking and they asked me if I was going to the Cooper gig and I said no I don't have a ticket. You do now they told me, and they said they would make sure to leave tickets for me and backstage passes at the gig next day. And I went there and yeah there were tickets and backstage passes. That was f-ing kind of these guys, and who were they who I got to know and get tickets and backstage passes from? Britney Fox. I still have the guitar pick they gave me. I play guitar too.

I’ve heard bad things about Kenny and I’m not saying it’s not true but from my personal experience I can only say he was a gentleman. He knew I was a fan and he actually took the time to ship me a bunch of tour merchandise. A jacket, a shirt, an autographed album to the airline. Didn’t ask for it. He didn’t have to do it. Yet he took the time to do it. Class act at least to me. Joan was always an awesome customer. She did have a bit of a an uppetty air on first glance, but when you spoke to her, she shocked you on how down to earth she is. Miss seeing them.

But that whole thing about him holding some kind of strange power over her and how her career has been dead because of him for years now is something that's not exactly a secret, this is probably at least the 4th or 5th time I've heard an interview with someone talking about that, and why she allows herself to be so manipulated by him is the big mystery, she has no problem bossing people around but as soon as he's in the room it's like some kind of voodoo power is put on her, they say she instantly turns into a different person, and you'd think after what Kim Fowley put her through she'd never let something like that happen to her but she does, and no one who has ever been around it can understand.

But even a middle act in arenas is expected to draw a thousand people. And the amphitheaters are 20,000 capacity. Characterizing Joan Jett as a club act (400 capacity rooms) is really unfairly diminishing where she is in her career.. She is still much bigger.

Joan is the type of artist that is very much connected to the moment in which she arrived before the public. For her, that moment was in the hip and modern world of punk rock circa late 1970s. Imagine if The Beatles had never transformed from the exciting rock-n-roll band of the early 1960s into the psychedelic band of the late 1960s. That's what was The Dave Clark Five, for example.

Yeah, only a fool would say that. Interesting about her rythym playing though, I respect timing like this guy described.

She doesn't claim that either. She knows she is a rhythm guitarist at best. Music magazines gave her that title.

Joan the skanky jett

I think the greatest misconception is that Kenny is controlling Joan when in fact it is Joan that will never let Kenny leave. But they mutually respect each other. There was an interview with Joan and Kenny just last week and they both complimented each other and gave high praise. They are more like brother and sister

say what you want about britny fox, but that gold metal flake les paul in the girl school video is cool as hell

The main girl in that video used to drive my 13 year old just-hit-puberty self wild!

Love Joan. She is one of my favourite female artists. Love her music and style ❤

Hope there’s some Dogs D’amour stories coming!

The Britny Fox guitarist was in Cinderella. They needed to boot him to get their deal. The similarities were not by coincidence. BTW, I always through the Britny Fox drummer looked out of place. This story explains why.

I had no idea of most of these things. I was her #1 fan starting in 1982 in high school but over the years moved on to other artist as my #1 artist. I had no idea she was such a great rhythm guitarist. I knew she was a good player but had no idea she could play as well as he describes. Amazing. From what he says it sounds like Kenny Laguna is more than a producer but is a "handler". Not everyone in entertainment has a handler but if he has been controlling her for 40 plus years like this then it appears she may be a mind controlled slave and was groomed and shaped to be who she has become. Just the mere fact that she was so obedient to not thinking she could go out and get pizza is a bad sign. Without having a handler she may have taken a different road in her career and personal life. By the way I have that cover album and I thought it was really good. Too bad it didn't do so well.

Joan Jett was the odd bird booking in 7-23-83 Comiskey Park Chicago MTV concert. She was booed off the stage. She and the band took beating from crowd that was throwing anything they could up on the stage at the Blackhearts. My memory has them cutting off their set early...

I loved Britny Fox!

Joan Jett is a legend

Wrong: "poison" were wearing Kix's "old clothes." Anything KIX did, successfully, or interestingly, poison appropriated from them. Period.

Joan Jett was one of the most beautiful womrn Ive seen in her more youthful days

Ric "I hate everyone I've worked with and will throw them all under the bus" Browde.

So her opening for def Leppard is a bar gig? When was this interview done? She's been playing stadiums.

Jesus, this was a good one! Joan Jett does come off a little odd in every interview I've read or seen her do. Bizarre.

i have No Shame-it's a good album!

Is it just me or is Joan Jett morphing into Judge Judy?

She's a great live cover band. Maybe the best cover band ever.

Does anyone else remember a different version of the video “Little Liar”? Seems like I remember what I believe was the 1st version of it, it was a little different and had a few different scenes. It was kind of like what they did with the KISS video of Hide Your Heart - quickly make an alternate version to keep controversy to a minimum. But I don’t remember any specific scene that would have been inappropriate in the Little Liar video.

"I LOVE ROCK-AND-ROLL, PUT ANOTHER DIME IN THE JUKEBOX, BABY"!! 🤟🎸🤟🎸

Britney Fox was hilarious the singer was so exaggerated screaming like that I don't know who thought they were good amusing only!

How sad.😔

Britny Fox was a good band, Dean lives in my town nice guy too

I've seen Joan a couple times live, both times absolutely amazing. She's the living embodiment of Rock n roll. I hate hearing that she's under a svengali's thumb, she deserves better than that.

Yeah, some Dogs Damour would be great, knew Tyla and Joe Dog.from London, played in a band with their old bassist.
