Joan, I was the woman of color in the 6th row at Paso Robles Mid-State Fair. I brought my 10 year old boy ( whose idea it was to see you) after hearing my stories all his life about the women I admired the most in the history of rock & roll as I knew it! " Mom, Joan is playing at the Fair". You rocked huge and were totally inspiring to us on even a higher level than I had ever imagined. You were hot back in my hey day in the eighties and you still have everything and more; one of the few I can say that about! Most of all, my boy Nick & I got a chance to see what a great person you are! My God, you even signed autographs for all those people out behind the stage before you left. I was the one, ( like you could remember), that said,"Joan, I LOVE YOU, and thank you for coming to our town!" You looked up at me through the crowd, asked me my name, and then signed a crumpled old piece of paper ' To Julie, love, Joan Jett'. My boy was totally amazed that I was even able to get the autograph! I sound like a weirdo, but I just wanted to thank you for making our only concert together at this year's fair one of the most memorable moments in our life together. I work for the County, am 45 years old, and you made me feel like a total young admiring child again. IT WAS VERY SPECIAL AND SOMETHING I WILL REMEMBER ALL MY LIFE , because you really cared about the fans and it showed. The best to you always, Love Julie ( and her boy, Nick) from San Luis Obispo County. God Bless You Always! Peace!

What a cool story! Thanks for sharing Julie, and welcome. It can't be bad when Joan comes to town, that's for sure! I've seen her twice now. Both times with my daughter! We both love Joan Jett and it's just great for us to share the experience!!! Rock on! Gus
