I need to be forcibly removed from the internet, today. I had to respond to:
Apart from singers, those with romantic involvement with boy(s) in the band and members of all-girl groups, can you think of even one reasonably well known female rock musician? (I can think of only one, but even that is something of a special case.)
OMG I DONT EVEN WTF
What alternate universe is that person from and what can we do to send that person back?
WTF^∞
Is that a way to discount rockers who play instruments, write songs, AND sing? Because I can think of a bunch.
Also, that would definitely prove that women are shitty musicians.
....oh wait. No it wouldn't.
Right? I mean, this person doesn't count Patti Smith or Chrissie Hynde, or Janis Joplin or Debbie Harry, just for starters?
Mick Jagger only sings, and I don't see anyone not calling him a rock musician.
And Ani DiFranco and Liz Phair.
Loki and Pumpkin are roaring around upstairs. They're noisy!
Yeah, I'm focussing on that and the Gabby Giffords piece on ABC. Not the stupid people.
Sheryl Crow, Melissa Etheridge, Lita Ford, Bonnie Rait, Pink. Someone needs a cock punch.
And the guitar player from Heart, whose name I'm spacing on. Nancy Wilson?
