thanx for the great slide show, loved the pic of them all on the beach with fingers raised!
They were damn good, glad a really nice movie was made. I was in a video store today, and it was playing, and the people watching it were asking when is it out on dvd, and they were told now, and immediately bought it. I agree, with this music, you do not have to thinks about likes or dislikes, you just know! Once a fan, always a fan, and years after, we come back.
Great collection of photos!! I loved growing up in the 70's and I was a big fan of The Runaways. Early 80's I was a senior in HS and was so thrilled Joan Jett made a come back. We rocked big time to her music. Great memories !!!
@simonenovaes2009 yes, this is, for the most part. the original band was made up of Sandy West(drums), Joan Jett(rythm guitar), Lita ford(lead guitar), and Micki Steele(bass). then Micki left and the used Peggy Foster as bass and Cherie Joined the band. Shortly after Peggy left they got Jackie Fox. Sandy, Joan, Lita, Cherie, and Jackie made the band famous, they are sometimes called the "famous five" (don't quote me on that).
@cleoflorencio0107 Someone said it on another Runaways video, so I searched it up on google, and it turned out to be true :( In the movie, there was no Jackie.
@MrOscarWild, what you're saying is that when men form a band it's for the music, but when girls do it they're only seeking attention? Did it ever occur to you that the Runaways may simply enjoy playing music?
I would really like to see Lita, Joan, and Cherie reunite again for a Runaways show due to their Runaway movie being out. That would be so cool. Theyd have to get a different drummer due to Sandys death, but still be sweet and just think of all the extra cash they could cash in with.
@MrOscarWild WTF are you talking about? The Runawayts could kick ass on 90% of the male bands out there. And they were all under 18! Get a clue, dude!
@MrOscarWild tell me. honestly, are you a member of a band whose ass the Runaways kicked? or a member of the band who didn't get the same success? Cause your judgment seems pretty clouded with so much bitterness. just saying.
I'm their age & discovered them in '78 when I was 15. Still a fan. Great to hear about the new movie. (Also check out the documentary Edge Play (2002?).)
Just found my long lost Queens of Noise & Live in Japan LPs in a storage box. Thought they'd been sold or thrown out years ago. What a rush.
Even 30+ years later the Runaways are unique. Criticism be damned - they earned their very own legitimate place in rock history. They sure rocked my 15-year-old world!
@wweleah all i really care about is if they get the new movie right. if they get all the facts right. once they have the facts right i don't really care who they cast as who.
i loled the first time i saw that pic of them. there like "yeah were an all girl rock group if you like it thats great if u dont..." and there fingers juss finished the sentence for them. :))))
check out At first sight, they are a teenage latina rock group. unlike kim fowley' runaways
(which were a great group that prevailed despite his sexploitationand abuse) At first sight have a chaperone,are drugfree,no t&A,school is 1st and are kicking in the good girl era.
Toronto visual artist and music video director Floria Sigismondi will write and direct a movie about the influential all-female '70s rock 'n' roll group The Runaways. She'll use unpublished memoirs written by Runaways lead singer Cherie Curie as a resource for the drama, which will be titled Neon Angels after the group's song, "Neon Angels On The Road To Ruin." Release date: 2009!
I LOVE THE RUNAWAYS they are the best all fucking grrrl band in my opinion they have inspired me to be a grrl musican... they were underated they deserved more than what they have atleast joan even lita had taste of sucess i wish i lived at that time to see the runaways in conert..... this is my #1 fave
HEATHER LEATHER female band since 80's San Antonio,Tx. We still play cherry bomb,school days,lita ford excellent guitarist. god bless sandy jamming out heaven !!!peace
I have about 5 runaways albums from the seventies when i was a big runaway fan including the cherie and marie album. enjoyed watching all the videos recently. les. zeppelin rules.
They are the best girl band in rock history and a major influence to the great chick rock stars today. Lita Ford and Joan Jett carved out a career from this band that got them started. A deserved place in the hall of fame undoubtedly.
i've done a tribute video to them, and it's about 11minutes long, i'll upload it soon to youtube xD you've got pictures i've never seen before :D really great vid
A nice video collage, and some nice memories. Thanks for the pictures of Jackie Fox. My favorite Runaway. I wish I could see more of her on these videos, and you made up for it pretty decently.
Started out with Joan, Sandy, and Micki (of the Bangles). Lots of guys collect this band now. The band never got their songs on any LA radio station, but have never been forgotten.
Rodney liked them personally of course so he played them. I also remember hearing "You Drive Me Wild" on the old KWEST station, aound 106.3...not sure if that was its fqcy.
