[Webmaster note: With the approaching JOAN JETT AND THE BLACKHEARTS show at the Stone Pony, where Mother Goddess (Maya Price's band) will be opening, we thought it might be a good time to repost Maya Price's 'Open Letter to Rolling Stone'.]

I tried to find some cleverly worded way to express my disgust with your "Women in Rock" issue, but what i have to say is really quite simple: You guys are completely retarded.

By RS standards, Rock is no longer a style of music but a trendy costume to be whipped up by expensive stylists and slapped onto the latest pop tart barbie doll. Give a girl some tight pants and a spiky bracelet and POOF! She ROCKS!
