Comedy & Tragedy Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 That is SSOOOOOO much better than Paramore! I was not expecting that at all! Niice
Trina Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 You can tell all the young fans by the people who say something along the lines of; "Who the hell is Joan Jett?" Look her up. One of the most influential female punk rockers in existence. She was in The Runaways who have recently had a film made out of them called, obviously, The Runaways, starring Kristen Stewart from Twilight as Joan. I have to say I'm pretty pumped. Awesome musician and if Courtney Love is supporting with Hole as well I may just explode from excitement. Kudos to Green Day for not having some terrible emo band tacked in front of them and picking some real musicians. Um, no. I'm 16, I love Joan Jett. I have for many years. Don't be so judgemental. I do get what you're saying though and agree with most of it. It is a shame though that so many people wont know who she is (but will know fucking paramore!) or who will only know her name because of twilight stuff.
Angela. Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 Awesome! I've listened to a bit of Joan Jett, and from what I've listened to, she sounds pretty great. Sounds like a great opening act.

Smoothed Out Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 At first I was like who?!? But now I'm actually pretty excited because it's coming back to me who she actually is. omg It's going to be pretty amazing Although I was expecting more than one support...
Homicidal_llama Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 Um, no. I'm 16, I love Joan Jett. I have for many years. Don't be so judgemental. I do get what you're saying though and agree with most of it. It is a shame though that so many people wont know who she is (but will know fucking paramore!) or who will only know her name because of twilight stuff. Yeah sorry if I sounded a bit judgemental. I'll retract that statement about the younger fans because I'm sure lots of you know who she is. The rest stands though! To those who are disappointed; do you not like Joan Jett or do you just not know who she is? Going to a live gig is an experience like no other and it is a time to discover new music as well. Come on, seriously, who goes to a gig purely just to hear songs that they know? That would be totally boring. If thats the case you might as well just make a playlist of those songs and put them on full blast. You go to see a performer and Joan Jett was performing years before Green Day were so you can gurantee a hell of a show! Would you rather some boring pop-emo-band like Paramore solely supporting them instead then?

AleKerplunk Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 i love Joan Jett. she's so great and her voice and she looks so younger damm! why i cant live in europe? would be a fuckin awesome concert: Joan Jett & Green Day D:
ElisaHave Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 I doesn't know her that well. but i know "I love rock n' roll", and i think its awesome:). Hope its true that she's the support in Denmark:)
Peace and Rainbows Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 Cool Expect she ain't comming to buffolo so no joan for me
keepmeinsane Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 Should be pretty cool, although I haven't heard much else from her than "I Love Rock'n Roll", but maybe it's time to look her up now then?!
jm_xd Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 i've never heard of her before, but i'm just listening and i really like! she's probably so cool supporting =)
Blond-O-Sonic Shimmer Trap Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 Don't think there's any shame in not knowing who she is till now, just like there's no shame in people knowing who Paramore are. After all they're only on Kerrang every 3rd fucking song. I'm not really up to speed on female punk tbh, Courtney Love, Patti Smith n that's about it really But anything's better than Prima Donna right? I love that song Bad Reputation, didn't know it was them, so I am looking forward to it but I want a much better support to play a longer set. Have her on for 45 minutes, an hour long set from Biffy or another big band then 3 hours of Green Day!
Agija Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 I decided to listen to some of her songs as I had never heard about her before. I can't say I liked her stuff.
Holly Ann Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 Ohmygodgodgodgodgod. That's awesome. I love Bad Reputation
Laura33 Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 I hope she breaks out Crimson and Clover, I love that song.
Sarah.Scumbag Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 ... I've had a dream about her supporting Green Day before I'm sure... o.O
