So ladies, how's it been?
I've gotten arrested for possession of marijuana on bunk charges, so I'm currently stuck in the goddamned system.
Besides that, I've been making mix-cds of kickass girl bands like 7 Year Bitch, Babes in Toyland, and L7 to pass out amongst random peoples.

Have any of you noticed that all-girl bands declined dramatically since the early '90s?
What we have now is The Donnas, Sahara Hotnights, Sleater Kinney, and basically the entire lineup of KRS Records. Even Kittie has fallen out of favor.

There's a strange regression in the presence of mainstream female musicians in rock bands.
It makes me sad in my soul.

However, it must be hard to re-create a scene that happened on the cusp of the internet and mass media age.
Nowadays, everyone has a band, and in some ways, it's great.
But if you're trying to make a real mark on the MTV music scene, it's hard as hell to find a Joan Jett anymore.

All right, I'm sad now.
Comment, discuss, or don't.
We've all got shit to do and shit to write.

Love ya,
Ana (one wee mod)

out of curiosity...

So just out of boredom/curiosity, any Kittie fans here? I used to think I didn't really like metal at all, but I heard some song by Kittie the other day so I went out and picked up "Paperdoll" (EP). *shrugs*

Also, I'm going back to campus in about five more weeks, and I really would like to start a band (preferably mostly women)... any tips? Much appreciated. :)
