Joan Jett & the Blackhearts, who have never stopped touring, recently did 10 days in the Middle East playing for the troops stationed in Afghanistan. Go get 'em,Joan! The sound you are hearing is applause!

Joan Darling!
Two Things:
Your letter to Rolling Stone!
BAM ! Nailed em to the wall...
watta piece of fluff that rag is!
Shows for the troops in Afghanistan!
What can I say but, others may talk the talk...
But YOU gotta know going there, and doing something for our troops,
means more than anything the rest of the 'entertainment' industry has done as a whole...
I spent a year in the Saudi desert prior to the fight in 90-91, never saw one face from the 'entertainment' industry the whole time.
Thanks for showing the grunts a good time!
FReegards!

Agreed! Joan hit the nail on the head with this one. Putting Britney spears into the 'rock' category is simply insane. And to ignore her comment on Pat Benetar? Come ON! I have a Women who Rock issue of RS that has Tina Turner, Madonna, Courtney Love and someone else on the cover. Now to me, those women DO rock. They need to do one that truly focuses on Rock and Roll, and put Joan, Pat, Ann and Nancy Wilson and Sheryl Crow on the cover.
The fact that RS is pandering to the bubblegum pop crowd is proof that they have lost their edge.
