When Joan played in Chicago about 15 years ago at the Metro, I held up a crappy little sign in which I wrote "Love is Pain" on it & she immediately stopped whatever song she was doing & played "Love is Pain" for me.
I saw her sing this live at Alhambra front and center *nearly fainted a few times* and I was MORTIFIED because I didn't know this one. She just smirked at me like "HA! I knew I'd trip you up".
the first concert i went to i didn't know all of the songs but by the time i went to the second one i knew every song, i'm only 17 so i had a lot of catching up to do lol
what a bad ass <3

There are no words to explain how much I fucking love Joan Jett. She is a saint, and her music is a way of life. 'Nuff said.

The first time I saw her live - 1983,
Chicago's Comiskey Park on tour with the Police.
Some idiots were throwing garbage at her.
She just batted it with the headstock of her Les Paul Jr., flipped them off & proceeded to rock the shit out of that place!
Despite my love & admiration for Ace Frehley,
Keith Richards, Joe Perry & Izzy Stradlin' and Bob Mould,...Joan Jett was the reason I learned to play guitar.

B-side 1982. JJ likes the van. There's more in that punch than just cause & effect.
