JOAN JETT AND THE BLACKHEARTS performed a one hour set during the last weekend of the California State Fair. It was a Friday show during a surprisingly mild summer night. The crowd jammed inside the outdoor amphitheater and the lawn seating for the free music lovers was filled with excited fans. Joan didn't fail to rock the stage as she blistered through her most well known songs (Cherry Bomb, Do Ya Wanna Touch, I Love Rock n Roll, Crimson n' Clover and I Hate Myself For Loving You). She also performed some material off of her later albums. But one song she played quieted the raucous crowd and that was a cover of Sweet's AC/DC (and no, it has nothing to do with the hard rock band by the similar name.

After about an hour set. Joan and the BLACKHEARTS left the stage. But the cheering audience wanted more so the band came back out and performed a two song encore. After that, the fans gave her a loud standing ovation and everyone left happy. I really enjoyed the show, it was a nice capper to a pleasant evening at the California State Fair. Joan has been playing rock music for over thirty years and she can still bring down the house.
