There's nothing wrong with being single and not getting married and being, you know, just an old single lady. Who cares?

Women are still second-class citizens.

I'm not necessarily intimidated by really jocky guys. I can talk football with them, you know what I mean?

A girl playing rock and roll, it's saying I own my sexuality and I'm going to tell you what I'm going to do. And I think people just find that threatening.

Record stores are the backbone of the recorded music culture. It's where we go to network, browse around, and find new songs to love. The stores whose staff live for music have spread the word about exciting new things faster and with more essence than either radio or the press.
