JOAN JETT AND THE BLACKHEARTS Rock Paso Robles!
from: centralcoastteens.com


Love was all around as Everyday People of all ages, color and race packed the California Mid State Fair for the thunderous return of JOAN JETT AND THE BLACKHEARTS. Armed with new songs from the soon to be released CD "Naked", new life was added to an already blistering live show. "I don't know how Joan and I do it, but it's always fresh, we love it, we love our hits, we love the new songs, we get off on it, and that hour is really a rush every single night, and I couldn't tell you what makes it happen, except that I think we have pretty cool songs.", KENNY LAGUNA told us before the first of two jam packed shows. Kenny, whose first meeting with Jett was 25 years ago, was smitten at first sight and the two have been musical partners ever since. "I thought she was pretty cool, she wore a black leather jacket, she had attitude, she knew what she wanted, and she didn't let me push her around, really talented. I was in love with her the first day, I thought she was unbelievable" Laguna has spent four years in the music business and is a virtual walking, talking Rock icon.

The bulk of the Blackheart's set concentrated on classics such as "Crimson And Clover", "French Song", "Bad Reputation", and of course, "I Love Rock N Roll", but at first listen the new songs more than held up to the old standards, which is refreshing in this day of bands whose new material simply cannot hold a candle to their past work. It looks as though Jett & company are poised to once again light the charts on fire.

Looking out from stage left as the closing notes of "Bad Reputation" rang out; it is no surprise as to why JOAN JETT AND THE BLACKHEARTS still thrive to this day. One look into the faces of the crowd and band explains it, as it is evident a great time is had by all, as the connection between musician and fan become almost surreal.

Across the way, on the other side of the Fair, on this same night, a certain "Diva in training" was also performing, and one cannot help but think where her music will be in 5 years, much less 20. Where Jett and her music has endured and thrived through generations, others have flared out and been knocked to the wayside, never to return. But one thing seems to be certain, if you Love Rock N Roll, Good Music will never go out of style. Are you ready to get "Naked" America?

Central Coast Teens would like to Thank : Julie Rader, KENNY LAGUNA, Elliot Saltzman and JOAN JETT for being so hospitable and a Class Act in every way!
