so you know i'm a shrink right okay so
35
00:02:43,199 --> 00:02:46,560
my subjective framework affects the
36
00:02:44,878 --> 00:02:48,399
interview format in that i have two
37
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:50,640
themes i want to explore
38
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:52,560
the first theme is about music because
39
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:54,878
musicians relationship to their music
40
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:57,120
fascinates me and i want to know things
41
00:02:54,878 --> 00:02:58,399
like how you channel your experience
42
00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:00,800
into sound
43
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:03,200
how your music mimics the kinetic energy
44
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:06,159
of your emotional experience
45
00:03:03,199 --> 00:03:07,598
what sounds appeal to you and why
46
00:03:06,158 --> 00:03:09,439
and how writing and playing and
47
00:03:07,598 --> 00:03:10,878
performing work for you
48
00:03:09,439 --> 00:03:12,959
and then the second half the interview
49
00:03:10,878 --> 00:03:16,079
will focus on gender issues okay the
50
00:03:12,959 --> 00:03:18,479
fantasy as a child was to be on stage
51
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:20,319
and to be looked up how i looked at
52
00:03:18,479 --> 00:03:22,399
bands that i really
53
00:03:20,318 --> 00:03:24,318

[Music]
57
00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:41,280

58
00:03:39,519 --> 00:03:42,959
bands like the rolling stones and stuff
59
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:44,080

66
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:05,360
early on when i was first exposed to
67
00:04:03,598 --> 00:04:06,798

73
00:04:14,158 --> 00:04:18,449

[Music]
76
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:27,120
i was a rock star's girlfriend for a
77
00:04:24,399 --> 00:04:29,439
little while when i was in high school
78
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:31,680

79
00:04:29,439 --> 00:04:33,759
that was it sealed it i couldn't be
80
00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:35,280
around him when he was getting all this
81
00:04:33,759 --> 00:04:37,009
attention when he was on stage
82
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:41,500
performing
83
00:04:37,009 --> 00:04:41,500
[Music]
84
00:04:41,519 --> 00:04:45,680

god why can't that be me
88
00:04:49,918 --> 00:04:53,439
i think it's good for women to get their
89
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:56,320
yayas out and i think it's good that
90
00:04:53,439 --> 00:04:57,519
there's really um very spiritual very
91
00:04:56,319 --> 00:04:59,918
intelligent
92
00:04:57,519 --> 00:05:02,879
uh and varying degrees politically
93
00:04:59,918 --> 00:05:05,359
active women that are really now paving
94
00:05:02,879 --> 00:05:06,879
the way like if joan jet in the runaways
95
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:08,960
and that whole trip was like a first
96
00:05:06,879 --> 00:05:11,759
wave to this i think this is a really
97
00:05:08,959 --> 00:05:14,799
strong second wave coming i think that
98
00:05:11,759 --> 00:05:15,520
women as musicians in the 90s are going
99
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,439
to
100
00:05:15,519 --> 00:05:19,109
really make a mark on the music industry
101
00:05:17,439 --> 00:05:22,259

103
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:29,839

00:06:19,439 --> 00:06:23,360
didn't need him to be creative and you
127
00:06:21,519 --> 00:06:24,799

[Music]
132

00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:46,959
course i was going out with guys and
135
00:06:45,918 --> 00:06:49,598
bands
136
00:06:46,959 --> 00:06:51,198
and i was real jealous of them and i
137
00:06:49,598 --> 00:06:54,159
wanted to do it but
138
00:06:51,199 --> 00:06:55,840
i was really insecure about my playing
139
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,360
and i knew guys
140
00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:59,279
that i could play with
141
00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:01,680
i didn't know any chicks i finally got
142
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:03,198
over mike being a chicken and i said

um being scared
149
00:07:25,199 --> 00:07:29,439
and this the fight came from
150
00:07:27,918 --> 00:07:31,359
i'm not good enough to play with these
151
00:07:29,439 --> 00:07:34,379

[Music]
154
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:55,840
those songs are very simple a couple
155
00:07:53,839 --> 00:07:57,598
chord progressions and then i come in
156
00:07:55,839 --> 00:07:58,799
with this lead and i you know i just get
157
00:07:57,598 --> 00:07:59,839
carried away i start doing all these
158
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:02,319
notes
159
00:07:59,839 --> 00:08:04,799
and you overdo it and you know less is
160
00:08:02,319 --> 00:08:06,400
more sometimes and i just i get away
161
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,439
from that i can't help myself and i
162
00:08:06,399 --> 00:08:08,959
start like
163
00:08:07,439 --> 00:08:11,259
going off and
164
00:08:08,959 --> 00:08:26,719

[Music]
166
00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:30,080

00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:09,359
i asked him if you could like
191
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:11,518
teach me a real basic just how to
192
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:11,519
go
193
00:10:12,639 --> 00:10:15,519
you know
194
00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:17,039
so he sat me down at his kit and he just
195
00:10:15,519 --> 00:10:18,560
said okay
196
00:10:17,039 --> 00:10:20,639
hit this symbol
197
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:22,399
and now start
198
00:10:20,639 --> 00:10:24,078
so all of a sudden i just started doing
199
00:10:22,399 --> 00:10:25,440
it and i sat in this guy's practice room
200
00:10:24,078 --> 00:10:27,439
and did it for like a half an hour just
201
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:28,160
sat there one two
202
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:28,959
to
203
00:10:28,159 --> 00:10:30,799
do
204
00:10:28,958 --> 00:10:34,639
and then as i was started getting more
205
00:10:30,799 --> 00:10:34,639
comfortable i was like going dude
206
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:41,519
oh wow i did that oh cool you know and
207
00:10:38,078 --> 00:10:43,759
um it just kind of came naturally i mean
208
00:10:41,519 --> 00:10:45,919
not that like i became keith's moon
209
00:10:43,759 --> 00:10:47,200
overnight or anything like that but i
210
00:10:45,919 --> 00:10:49,599
was able to
211
00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:53,000
keep a steady beat and even throw a roll
212
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:53,000
in here and there
213
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:12,639
i was very concerned about
214
00:11:09,759 --> 00:11:13,919
people thinking of me or hearing that oh
215
00:11:12,639 --> 00:11:16,958
this band has a girl drummer and
216
00:11:13,919 --> 00:11:18,719
thinking oh yeah she's probably very
217
00:11:16,958 --> 00:11:20,159
you know so
218
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,680
when i started learning how to play
219
00:11:20,159 --> 00:11:23,919
teaching myself i
220
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:26,000
my number one concern was
221
00:11:23,919 --> 00:11:26,958
to play as hard as any guy would play
222
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:29,278
you know
223
00:11:26,958 --> 00:11:30,559
so when i learned how to play i
224
00:11:29,278 --> 00:11:31,649
just
225
00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:44,329
slammed
226
00:11:31,649 --> 00:11:44,329
[Music]
227
00:11:45,759 --> 00:11:48,240
there's a certain age when you're a kid
228
00:11:47,039 --> 00:11:49,679
in school and they come around and say
229
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:51,839
you want to start playing an instrument
230
00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:54,399
and it works true and i picked drums and
231
00:11:51,839 --> 00:11:56,079
my mom made me write flute first
232
00:11:54,399 --> 00:11:58,240
speaking of traditional how she wanted
233
00:11:56,078 --> 00:12:00,638
me she had two choices she made me write
234
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:02,959
down the flute first which is not what i
235
00:12:00,639 --> 00:12:07,320
was like get out of here
236
00:12:02,958 --> 00:12:07,319
you know that's like sucking a cup
237
00:12:08,509 --> 00:12:14,480
[Music]
238
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:17,278
they had too many flute players so i was
239
00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:18,560
the drummer and believe me when they
240
00:12:17,278 --> 00:12:20,399
called me in they're like why do you
241
00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:21,838
want to be a drummer
242
00:12:20,399 --> 00:12:23,839
girls don't usually want to play the
243
00:12:21,839 --> 00:12:25,760
drums and these teachers try to talk me
244
00:12:23,839 --> 00:12:28,959
out of it and pick something else
245
00:12:25,759 --> 00:12:28,958
and that made me more like
246
00:12:32,799 --> 00:12:37,278
there was an l7 show with the marquee a
247
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:39,359
few weeks ago
248
00:12:37,278 --> 00:12:42,159
um and the luna chicks ended up doing a
249
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:42,959
song there and backstage joe jett was
250
00:12:42,159 --> 00:12:45,519
there
251
00:12:42,958 --> 00:12:47,679
and i was on to meet her because i think
252
00:12:45,519 --> 00:12:49,919
she's the person who whether you're a
253
00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:52,319
really big fan of her music or not i
254
00:12:49,919 --> 00:12:54,319
think if you're a woman in rock and roll
255
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:56,560
you have to respect joan jett because
256
00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:58,320
she really paved the way and she was
257
00:12:56,559 --> 00:13:00,319
walking around she kept nudging me with
258
00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:02,399
her elbow and going when i was doing
259
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:04,320
this with the runaways there weren't all
260
00:13:02,399 --> 00:13:06,159
these girls in rock and roll you didn't
261
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:07,278
walk in backstage stages somewhere and
262
00:13:06,159 --> 00:13:09,120
there's all these girls in leather
263
00:13:07,278 --> 00:13:10,879
jackets that can really play their
264
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:13,839
instruments and she's like
265
00:13:10,879 --> 00:13:16,159
wow she just kept kind of going wow
266
00:13:13,839 --> 00:13:19,880
now we're gonna be
267
00:13:16,159 --> 00:13:19,879
face to face
268
00:13:27,370 --> 00:13:33,759
[Music]
269
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:36,800
starting band in 1975 it consisted of
270
00:13:33,759 --> 00:13:37,759
15 and 16 year old girls
271
00:13:36,799 --> 00:13:40,240
you know
272
00:13:37,759 --> 00:13:41,759
it just blew people's minds you know it
273
00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:44,560
was we just
274
00:13:41,759 --> 00:13:46,240
constantly took a lot of [ __ ] people
275
00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:47,359
looked at us like we were from mars you
276
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:49,039
know and
277
00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:50,959
and
278
00:13:49,039 --> 00:13:51,838
after that initial response then people
279
00:13:50,958 --> 00:13:53,679
got
280
00:13:51,839 --> 00:13:55,600
very threatened by it
281
00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:58,078
you know and people would say really
282
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:59,278
negative things to us the press
283
00:13:58,078 --> 00:14:01,838
reviews
284
00:13:59,278 --> 00:14:04,720
uh just people on the street you know
285
00:14:01,839 --> 00:14:07,279
they call you names it really hurt us
286
00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:09,278
but the thing that we had was
287
00:14:07,278 --> 00:14:10,639
we had our gang you know it was like the
288
00:14:09,278 --> 00:14:12,720
band
289
00:14:10,639 --> 00:14:14,240
we kept ourselves sane because we were
290
00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:15,600
all in it together
291
00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:18,720
you know and it's after a while getting
292
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:20,800
called a [ __ ] a [ __ ] a dyke
293
00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:22,800
just because you're playing a guitar or
294
00:14:20,799 --> 00:14:25,169
an instrument i mean that's just out of
295
00:14:22,799 --> 00:14:28,269
line
296
00:14:25,169 --> 00:14:28,269
[Music]
297
00:14:34,879 --> 00:14:38,799
yeah i spent a lot of time close to
298
00:14:37,278 --> 00:14:40,559
danita and
299
00:14:38,799 --> 00:14:42,159
smiling at her you know i tried to get
300
00:14:40,559 --> 00:14:44,239
over to everybody and
301
00:14:42,159 --> 00:14:45,779
laugh because it was just so much fun it
302
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:49,399
really was
303
00:14:45,779 --> 00:14:53,198
[Music]
304
00:14:49,399 --> 00:14:54,879
[Applause]
305
00:14:53,198 --> 00:14:57,519
smoking
306
00:14:54,879 --> 00:14:59,439
what's heavy it's just like a rumbling a
307
00:14:57,519 --> 00:15:01,679
chunk
308
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:03,839
and you just i don't know i i feel like
309
00:15:01,679 --> 00:15:05,439
spinal tap explaining it it's really
310
00:15:03,839 --> 00:15:06,560
just a feeling to me that's all i don't
311
00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:08,480
think it goes
312
00:15:06,559 --> 00:15:11,439
much further than that and i like it and
313
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:14,639
i like to involve it with music and i
314
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:16,639
like dynamics with it because that that
315
00:15:14,639 --> 00:15:20,079
maybe it's like a personality to me it's
316
00:15:16,639 --> 00:15:20,079
you're getting more of a spectrum
317
00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:24,519
[Music]
318
00:15:24,958 --> 00:15:28,399
that's like sabbath and it's like it's
319
00:15:26,879 --> 00:15:31,120
just so
320
00:15:28,399 --> 00:15:32,399
i mean it's like heavy and kind of scary
321
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:34,480
but it's
322
00:15:32,399 --> 00:15:35,759
it's just a good thing and i mean i
323
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:38,720
don't know if they do that but i mean i
324
00:15:35,759 --> 00:15:40,480
like the idea of the chords
325
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:42,879
you know it's
326
00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:45,839
it's heavy for a base and and i like it
327
00:15:42,879 --> 00:15:47,759
and i don't know what got me into that
328
00:15:45,839 --> 00:15:48,770
i don't even know where i got this but i
329
00:15:47,759 --> 00:15:50,159
know people do it
330
00:15:48,769 --> 00:15:52,480
[Music]
331
00:15:50,159 --> 00:15:54,799
i mean like this is dissonant
332
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:58,539
in a strange way and
333
00:15:54,799 --> 00:16:03,879
then you throw the heaviness
334
00:15:58,539 --> 00:16:03,879
[Music]
335
00:16:08,409 --> 00:16:11,838
[Music]
336
00:16:10,159 --> 00:16:13,838
i don't know much about jazz i wish i
337
00:16:11,839 --> 00:16:15,839
did and i try and think about it but
338
00:16:13,839 --> 00:16:17,519
it's kind of where they don't have to
339
00:16:15,839 --> 00:16:19,199
speak they can just intertwine their
340
00:16:17,519 --> 00:16:21,039
personalities through the music because
341
00:16:19,198 --> 00:16:23,439
they know what they're doing and they
342
00:16:21,039 --> 00:16:24,799
can improv and it's okay you just go on
343
00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:26,720
and i i like that it's like
344
00:16:24,799 --> 00:16:29,809
personalities
345
00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:36,240
that combine it's strange
346
00:16:29,809 --> 00:16:38,239
[Music]
347
00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:40,399
i enjoy making music i enjoy connecting
348
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:42,480
with people i mean that's one time i can
349
00:16:40,399 --> 00:16:43,919
connect without him like the speaking
350
00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:46,000
thing it's like all right with jana
351
00:16:43,919 --> 00:16:47,519
we're doing it and it works sometimes it
352
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:49,600
doesn't work and that's how life is
353
00:16:47,519 --> 00:16:52,000
anyways that's kind of how i talk you
354
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:53,600
know how these paintings are because
355
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:56,000
they um
356
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:58,240
i just i don't always have an idea and i
357
00:16:56,000 --> 00:17:00,720
just start and i was taught that if you
358
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:03,759
make a mistake it's okay don't erase it
359
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:06,480
maybe it can turn into something and so
360
00:17:03,759 --> 00:17:08,640
they just kind of turn into things
361
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:10,160
and they always end up work not always
362
00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:11,919
sometimes i like to throw them out the
363
00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:14,319
window but certain ones
364
00:17:11,919 --> 00:17:16,400
just end up being how i like them it's
365
00:17:14,318 --> 00:17:18,318
all kind of subconscious and then it
366
00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:20,400
comes to my conscious and it turns out
367
00:17:18,318 --> 00:17:21,678
that's my conscience it turns into that
368
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:23,120
you know what
369
00:17:21,679 --> 00:17:24,720
i was just thinking you're interviewing
370
00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:25,918
people that write songs and sing and the
371
00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:27,439
whole reason they do that is because
372
00:17:25,919 --> 00:17:29,280
they don't like talking to people very
373
00:17:27,439 --> 00:17:31,120
much in the first place like they like
374
00:17:29,279 --> 00:17:34,000
talking but they're not as good as it as
375
00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:36,339

379
00:18:19,759 --> 00:18:23,279
better i mean one of my favorite things
380
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:24,880
is music i guess i do become uninhibited
381
00:18:23,279 --> 00:18:26,720
when i'm either playing it or listening
382
00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:28,320
to it because i it's like my favorite
383
00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:29,600
thing sometimes i feel really
384
00:18:28,319 --> 00:18:31,279
uncomfortable talking to people
385
00:18:29,599 --> 00:18:33,359
sometimes i'm just not in the mood and
386
00:18:31,279 --> 00:18:35,678
so when i'm watching a band hairs in my
387
00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:38,159
face i'm rocking out don't bother me and
388
00:18:35,679 --> 00:18:40,240
i'm enjoying myself a lot more so than

00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:42,720
like conversing with people i have a
390
00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:44,558
better time watching and listening to
391
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:46,960
live music
392
00:18:44,558 --> 00:18:49,440
than i do talking to people or i feel
393
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:51,919
more comfortable doing that when i was
394
00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:53,919
like about nine months old i had a
395
00:18:51,919 --> 00:18:56,000
problem with going into the kitchen in

00:18:53,919 --> 00:18:58,880
the in the cupboards and like taking the
397
00:18:56,000 --> 00:19:01,038
pots and pans and just like
398
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:05,039
smashing them so my mom had to like
399
00:19:01,038 --> 00:19:06,879
according off or however you say the
400
00:19:05,038 --> 00:19:08,240
kitchen you know she had to make that
401
00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:09,840
completely off limits to me because i
402
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:12,160
would just go and cover close the cover
403
00:19:09,839 --> 00:19:14,319

404
00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:15,600

407
00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:22,319
during my youth is like just
408
00:19:19,759 --> 00:19:24,079
repetitively like keeping myself in like
409
00:19:22,319 --> 00:19:26,558
some kind of hypnotic trance playing
410
00:19:24,079 --> 00:19:26,558
sports
411
00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:32,159
it's like troublesome or you'd get
412
00:19:29,599 --> 00:19:33,918
catatonic at least i would if i would
413
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:35,919
just keep things beside me i'd come to
414
00:19:33,919 --> 00:19:37,038
the point where i couldn't move to keep
415
00:19:35,919 --> 00:19:38,799
it kind of like
416
00:19:37,038 --> 00:19:39,919
healthy colon like in your mind or
417
00:19:38,798 --> 00:19:41,038
something
418
00:19:39,919 --> 00:19:42,720
like
419
00:19:41,038 --> 00:19:44,160
i would just play sports back and forth
420
00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:45,440
hit the tennis ball against the wall

do do
423
00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:58,319
that's how i can explain why drums do
424
00:19:56,079 --> 00:20:00,480
that for me by putting it into motion i
425
00:19:58,319 --> 00:20:02,079
can say this and i can say that i can
426
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:04,720
say it very quietly and i can say that
427
00:20:02,079 --> 00:20:06,480
very angrily and it sort of sings and
428
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:08,558
speaks to me
429
00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:10,480
but and sometimes i feel people get it
430
00:20:08,558 --> 00:20:11,519

she's all better but in my childhood
474
00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:42,480
she was very abusive it probably did

00:27:07,599 --> 00:27:11,918
boom it comes through my body so hard
564
00:27:09,759 --> 00:27:14,879
same thing with going on stage
565
00:27:11,919 --> 00:27:17,759
pumps pumps feels good
566
00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:19,919
the way i write a song is
567
00:27:17,759 --> 00:27:22,720
it usually starts with lyrics i work it
568
00:27:19,919 --> 00:27:24,399
out on tar there's always a melody with
569
00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:25,919
it when i write it and then i throw the
570
00:27:24,398 --> 00:27:28,398
lyrics away
571
00:27:25,919 --> 00:27:30,559
and i bring the song in it's usually not
572
00:27:28,398 --> 00:27:33,599
not very nice stuff i guess that that's
573
00:27:30,558 --> 00:27:35,519
where any of the anger that i do have
574
00:27:33,599 --> 00:27:37,918
because i know i have some from
575
00:27:35,519 --> 00:27:40,879
early in life that's where it comes out
576
00:27:37,919 --> 00:27:42,720
i was the one who didn't cause any
577
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:44,480
stress for anybody else you know
578
00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:47,038
something upsetting me i'll just deal
579
00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:49,278
with myself i can do it myself
580
00:27:47,038 --> 00:27:51,679
like i don't share it people have their
581
00:27:49,278 --> 00:27:54,000
own problems who wants to hear about
582
00:27:51,679 --> 00:27:57,200
this i use it to write the music and so
583
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:57,200
it serves its purpose
584
00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:01,599
that's a way to work it out no i don't
585
00:28:00,079 --> 00:28:03,839
think i work it out i think i need
586
00:28:01,599 --> 00:28:05,678
therapy someday i will get it i won't
587
00:28:03,839 --> 00:28:07,278
even let myself think about it that much
588
00:28:05,679 --> 00:28:10,240
because i've always buried things i can
589
00:28:07,278 --> 00:28:13,038
bury him so deep that i can't even find
590
00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:14,558

to even hear another human being say
609
00:29:01,919 --> 00:29:06,480

to being on stage like we're not a

00:33:20,398 --> 00:33:26,798

749
00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:19,838
spiritual and it is really um
750
00:35:17,599 --> 00:35:21,359
shamanistic when the gate opens the

you whenever that part of the music
778
00:36:55,199 --> 00:36:59,358
comes up you'll always move like that

00:36:57,679 --> 00:37:02,159
you know maybe when
780
00:36:59,358 --> 00:37:03,519
some guitar part makes you want to go

yourself that you just fit with that

everybody becomes one person it's the
795
00:38:35,358 --> 00:38:39,759
audience you know
796
00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:43,599
so i actually i mean i love getting up
797
00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:43,599
on stage and making a fool of myself
798
00:38:44,639 --> 00:38:48,960
attention wow this is great i didn't get
799
00:38:47,358 --> 00:38:50,960
enough attention when i was young i've
800
00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:52,800
got everybody looking going julia's
801
00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:54,559
having a good time isn't she maybe when
802
00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:57,359
i was young i wasn't listened to enough
803
00:38:54,559 --> 00:38:59,358
when i'm on stage i get to convey that
804
00:38:57,358 --> 00:39:01,119
and make some credibility and people
805
00:38:59,358 --> 00:39:03,920
actually listen to me because i am on
806
00:39:01,119 --> 00:39:06,000
that four-foot platform and i am above
807
00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:08,320
them which means that
808
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:11,358
i must be a superior person everyone on
809
00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:11,359
the stage is superior
810
00:39:13,519 --> 00:39:17,599
the thing that was so cruel about
811
00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:20,399
bulimia banquet is it was so [ __ ]
812
00:39:17,599 --> 00:39:23,359
mixed with really heavy strong
813
00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:23,358
aggressive punk rock
814
00:39:24,559 --> 00:39:28,639
people would be
815
00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:32,159
you know slamming or doing this kind of
816
00:39:28,639 --> 00:39:34,239
like punk rock skinhead brain dead
817
00:39:32,159 --> 00:39:35,838
and then the beat changes the rhythm
818
00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:37,598
changes in there they get all screwed up
819
00:39:35,838 --> 00:39:39,519
and they can't do anything so i have to
820
00:39:37,599 --> 00:39:40,800
generate it on the stage with my band
821
00:39:39,519 --> 00:39:42,559
members because it's really hard to get
822
00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:43,350
it from an audience who's completely
823
00:39:42,559 --> 00:39:46,799
bewildered

[Music]
825
00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:51,760
especially when you're doing it and you
826
00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:53,680
see other people in the crowd
827
00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:55,520
doing it back or singing the lyrics with
828
00:39:53,679 --> 00:39:57,358
you and just like you know with their
829
00:39:55,519 --> 00:39:59,519
fists in the air and stuff and it sounds
830
00:39:57,358 --> 00:40:01,358
corny but sometimes it's really moving
831
00:39:59,519 --> 00:40:03,759
that's a double whammy i'm blowing off
832
00:40:01,358 --> 00:40:05,598
steam and my ego is being stroked that
833
00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:07,500
somebody else is blowing off steam off
834
00:40:05,599 --> 00:40:16,390
of something that i've written
835
00:40:07,500 --> 00:40:22,110

840
00:40:30,559 --> 00:40:33,759
of like
841
00:40:31,838 --> 00:40:35,440

stiff neck and you feel like you're all
843
00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:37,920

yeah
845
00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:44,760

best show you know when there's like

00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:15,680
spastics and losing their dignity in

00:41:15,679 --> 00:41:18,838
to me
856
00:41:25,280 --> 00:41:29,920

picks up a guitar and says l7 sucks and
858
00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:33,680

came and have always been really
873
00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:24,880
supportive of us and it was really cool
874
00:42:23,679 --> 00:42:26,078
and that's like the origin of the group
875
00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:28,000
or whatever is that no matter what you
876
00:42:26,079 --> 00:42:29,680

00:42:30,719 --> 00:42:33,039
wouldn't have done it because it's good
880
00:42:32,079 --> 00:42:34,560
to know that people are going to support

roll high school setting up the school
903
00:44:00,159 --> 00:44:04,719
was an alternative to what most young
904
00:44:02,880 --> 00:44:08,720
girls seem to have open to them
905
00:44:04,719 --> 00:44:12,000
currently we have 140 girls and 10 boys
906
00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:15,598
most of them are about 15 and 16. we
907
00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:18,599
have a bass player as young as 7 and 26
908
00:44:15,599 --> 00:44:18,599
bands
909
00:44:23,920 --> 00:44:27,358
school is important for rock music
910
00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:29,920
generally we haven't
911
00:44:27,358 --> 00:44:31,759
gotten a female aesthetic as yet we
912
00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:33,760
haven't got a tradition
913
00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:35,440
of rock music made up largely of
914
00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:38,400
original material the school may
915
00:44:35,440 --> 00:44:39,519
possibly produce some extremely good
916
00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:41,599
musicians
917
00:44:39,519 --> 00:44:43,860

[Music]
922
00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:02,159
i was probably more excited than anyone
923
00:45:00,400 --> 00:45:04,000
else down there i was so flattered that
924
00:45:02,159 --> 00:45:07,559
they were playing l7 songs and had a
925
00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:07,559

in three and a half years we haven't had

00:45:26,239 --> 00:45:29,838
one love song written considering that
929
00:45:28,079 --> 00:45:32,240
girls themselves are supposed to be
930
00:45:29,838 --> 00:45:33,759
totally possessed by romantic ideology i
931
00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:35,469
find this very interesting and very
932
00:45:33,760 --> 00:45:42,319
encouraging

[Music]
934
00:45:42,318 --> 00:45:46,639
they tend not to
935
00:45:43,760 --> 00:45:49,200
write title music and they really like
936
00:45:46,639 --> 00:45:50,480
the noise aspect of electrified
937
00:45:49,199 --> 00:45:53,279
instruments
938
00:45:50,480 --> 00:45:55,440
obviously if the students are
939
00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:57,839
really good at what they do
940
00:45:55,440 --> 00:45:58,838
i can't see that gender could continue
941
00:45:57,838 --> 00:46:01,039
to be an
942
00:45:58,838 --> 00:46:03,440
issue at rock and roll high school the
943
00:46:01,039 --> 00:46:05,599
students take their involvement in music
944
00:46:03,440 --> 00:46:07,599
for granted this is the quiet room by
945
00:46:05,599 --> 00:46:09,760
boasting toy labs
946
00:46:07,599 --> 00:46:11,410
um i'm fran and this is mel
947
00:46:09,760 --> 00:46:16,000
from hecate
948

[Music]
949
00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:21,199
we've tried to give an alternative to
950
00:46:18,719 --> 00:46:23,519
the mass media stereotypical
951
00:46:21,199 --> 00:46:24,799
presentation of rock music in that sense
952
00:46:23,519 --> 00:46:26,800
i have a view
953
00:46:24,800 --> 00:46:28,720
that it's necessary for young people to
954
00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:30,550
see something other than what is
955
00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:33,519
presented to us as human behaviour
956
00:46:30,550 --> 00:46:34,880
[Music]
957
00:46:33,519 --> 00:46:36,318
people have remarked that sometimes they
958
00:46:34,880 --> 00:46:38,240
wonder if what i'm about is actually
959
00:46:36,318 --> 00:46:41,960
frankenstein feminism they get so
960
00:46:38,239 --> 00:46:41,959
confident it's not funny
961
00:46:47,760 --> 00:46:50,760
so
962
00:46:56,650 --> 00:47:01,280
[Applause]
963
00:46:58,559 --> 00:47:03,920
what these women gave me was a gift an
964
00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:05,680
image of a woman intense and commanding
965
00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:07,760
kinetically and vocally
966
00:47:05,679 --> 00:47:09,838
they represent expansion upon that
967
00:47:07,760 --> 00:47:11,440
female stereotype i've always felt so
968
00:47:09,838 --> 00:47:14,400
constrained by
969
00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:15,760
but i'm curious is the internal process
970
00:47:14,400 --> 00:47:18,480
as easy
971
00:47:15,760 --> 00:47:20,319
is there any shame any conflicts or
972
00:47:18,480 --> 00:47:23,318
doubts and if so how do they deal with
973
00:47:20,318 --> 00:47:23,318
them
974
00:47:31,199 --> 00:47:33,759
what do you think about your body
975
00:47:32,559 --> 00:47:36,240
wanting to have children i think you
976
00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:38,400
better get over it
977
00:47:36,239 --> 00:47:39,919
i'm not gonna procreate that's why we
978
00:47:38,400 --> 00:47:41,760
have these things that make us want to
979
00:47:39,920 --> 00:47:44,000
have sex so we can procreate like
980
00:47:41,760 --> 00:47:45,680
cockroaches really nothing but
981
00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:46,318
cockroaches when it gets right down to
982
00:47:45,679 --> 00:47:47,838
it
983
00:47:46,318 --> 00:47:49,440
i don't have any mothering instincts at
984
00:47:47,838 --> 00:47:53,039
all i barely mother this cat i mean i'm
985
00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:55,358
petting this cat i like this cat but
986
00:47:53,039 --> 00:47:56,880
i don't mother it
987
00:47:55,358 --> 00:47:58,078
it's hard to be different we're taught
988
00:47:56,880 --> 00:48:00,240
that there was supposed to be a certain
989
00:47:58,079 --> 00:48:01,760
way when things don't turn out like that
990
00:48:00,239 --> 00:48:02,879
you either think there's something wrong
991
00:48:01,760 --> 00:48:04,720
with you
992
00:48:02,880 --> 00:48:06,800
or i don't fit in it's incredibly
993
00:48:04,719 --> 00:48:08,639
painful jeez isn't the clock ticking
994
00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:11,039
away you know shouldn't i be married by
995
00:48:08,639 --> 00:48:13,759
now those pressures i feel real when i
996
00:48:11,039 --> 00:48:15,440
feel the urge to succumb i just think
997
00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:17,359
this is not me this is just something
998
00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:19,119
i've learned i don't know what other
999
00:48:17,358 --> 00:48:20,719
women feel it's always been kind of like
1000
00:48:19,119 --> 00:48:22,880
a dark secret
1001
00:48:20,719 --> 00:48:24,480
with me something that i haven't been
1002
00:48:22,880 --> 00:48:26,318
able to share with a lot of other women
1003
00:48:24,480 --> 00:48:29,599
because i always think that i'm the only
1004
00:48:26,318 --> 00:48:31,599
one sheesh i'll be in it and then i'll
1005
00:48:29,599 --> 00:48:33,200
just have to like
1006
00:48:31,599 --> 00:48:35,599
be strong you just kind of have to be
1007
00:48:33,199 --> 00:48:39,039
tough and say i know what i'm doing you
1008
00:48:35,599 --> 00:48:39,039
have to respect your vision
1009
00:48:42,318 --> 00:48:46,079
this is what i'm going for
1010
00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:48,880
and this is the only way i'll truly be
1011
00:48:46,079 --> 00:48:51,839
happy even though you have this doubt
1012
00:48:48,880 --> 00:48:53,599
i'm very shy and insecure
1013
00:48:51,838 --> 00:48:55,759
but the tough thing is either sometimes
1014
00:48:53,599 --> 00:48:58,160
a cover and then just what you have to
1015
00:48:55,760 --> 00:48:59,760
be whether it's a front or not i'm okay
1016
00:48:58,159 --> 00:49:02,239
with myself
1017
00:48:59,760 --> 00:49:05,680
and it shows a place of self-esteem
1018
00:49:02,239 --> 00:49:08,078
sometimes i feel like a sexual suspect
1019
00:49:05,679 --> 00:49:10,960
growing up i really question my
1020
00:49:08,079 --> 00:49:13,119
sexuality am i a guy i act more like a
1021
00:49:10,960 --> 00:49:14,880
guy you know what i mean and yet i had
1022
00:49:13,119 --> 00:49:17,680
friends who acted just like me until
1023
00:49:14,880 --> 00:49:19,680
around like 15 16 and then all of a
1024
00:49:17,679 --> 00:49:21,279
sudden they started shutting off that
1025
00:49:19,679 --> 00:49:23,919
one side of them
1026
00:49:21,280 --> 00:49:25,200
that feminine masculine thing and just
1027
00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:27,200
went for like
1028
00:49:25,199 --> 00:49:29,199
how they were supposed to be i had rowdy
1029
00:49:27,199 --> 00:49:31,598
ass girlfriends and then at a certain
1030
00:49:29,199 --> 00:49:32,960
age they stopped being rowdy anymore and
1031
00:49:31,599 --> 00:49:34,720
i couldn't understand why and i thought
1032
00:49:32,960 --> 00:49:36,960
there's something wrong with me because
1033
00:49:34,719 --> 00:49:39,519
of my feminist upbringing there was
1034
00:49:36,960 --> 00:49:41,280
really a time when i thought that
1035
00:49:39,519 --> 00:49:44,318
it was going to be a different world and
1036
00:49:41,280 --> 00:49:46,400
we were all going to have careers
1037
00:49:44,318 --> 00:49:48,400
but still i felt weird and because i
1038
00:49:46,400 --> 00:49:51,119
never had boyfriends i was like am i
1039
00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:53,039
like a lesbian or am i like a man
1040
00:49:51,119 --> 00:49:55,838
trapped in a woman's body what's going
1041
00:49:53,039 --> 00:49:58,130
on with me but now i'm like whatever i
1042
00:49:55,838 --> 00:50:01,340
do whatever i want to do
1043
00:49:58,130 --> 00:50:01,340
[Music]
1044
00:50:03,519 --> 00:50:08,239
it's tomboy from day one when i was in
1045
00:50:05,679 --> 00:50:10,480
sixth grade i ran the 50 yard dash 75
1046
00:50:08,239 --> 00:50:12,078
yard dash and won all those things but i
1047
00:50:10,480 --> 00:50:13,760
didn't wear a bra and the principal saw
1048
00:50:12,079 --> 00:50:15,599
that and ordered me to wear a bra
1049
00:50:13,760 --> 00:50:17,760
brought me in the office and talked to
1050
00:50:15,599 --> 00:50:19,599
my mother it was so horrifying for my
1051
00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:22,000
mother because my mother let me do what
1052
00:50:19,599 --> 00:50:24,000
i wanted and then he's like
1053
00:50:22,000 --> 00:50:26,239
we live in a fine community she should
1054
00:50:24,000 --> 00:50:28,239
be dressing like a young lady it just
1055
00:50:26,239 --> 00:50:29,598
felt like him saying to me there's
1056
00:50:28,239 --> 00:50:31,679
obviously something wrong with you so
1057
00:50:29,599 --> 00:50:33,119
you need to suppress the thing that is
1058
00:50:31,679 --> 00:50:35,199
wrong with you and i'll tell you what's
1059
00:50:33,119 --> 00:50:37,119
wrong with you and you fix it and you
1060
00:50:35,199 --> 00:50:40,000
won't bring it up again people were
1061
00:50:37,119 --> 00:50:42,079
actually in a room discussing my breasts
1062
00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:43,358
it was out of my control without my
1063
00:50:42,079 --> 00:50:45,760
permission that these things are
1064
00:50:43,358 --> 00:50:48,558
sprouting a time of insanity my dad
1065
00:50:45,760 --> 00:50:51,359
really regretted me around in a way just
1066
00:50:48,559 --> 00:50:53,359
until the past year maybe we never
1067
00:50:51,358 --> 00:50:55,519
really spoke to each other never had any
1068
00:50:53,358 --> 00:50:57,920
relationship at all i think it's because
1069
00:50:55,519 --> 00:50:59,599
i wasn't the daughter that daughters are
1070
00:50:57,920 --> 00:51:01,599
supposed to be i didn't wear pink
1071
00:50:59,599 --> 00:51:04,240
chiffon dresses and curl my hair and
1072
00:51:01,599 --> 00:51:06,400
pretty makeup and nice shoes and carry a
1073
00:51:04,239 --> 00:51:08,479
little you know i just was always like
1074
00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:10,079
the way i am
1075
00:51:08,480 --> 00:51:11,280
since i can remember you're always hung
1076
00:51:10,079 --> 00:51:13,760
out with the guys and listen to loud
1077
00:51:11,280 --> 00:51:16,720
music i guess what i figured basically
1078
00:51:13,760 --> 00:51:18,880
now that the public is accepting
1079
00:51:16,719 --> 00:51:22,000
us so i guess it's okay for my father to
1080
00:51:18,880 --> 00:51:24,160
know as far as men go i'll see someone
1081
00:51:22,000 --> 00:51:26,159
or i'll meet someone who i'm like wow
1082
00:51:24,159 --> 00:51:28,318
that person's like really special and
1083
00:51:26,159 --> 00:51:29,838
they're interesting and blah blah and
1084
00:51:28,318 --> 00:51:31,519
for sure they'll like me like they
1085
00:51:29,838 --> 00:51:33,199
should like me and it doesn't work out
1086
00:51:31,519 --> 00:51:35,358
that way and i'm like wow well what the
1087
00:51:33,199 --> 00:51:37,358
[ __ ] there she is
1088
00:51:35,358 --> 00:51:40,318
sometimes i see this really cool guy go
1089
00:51:37,358 --> 00:51:42,719
for this kind of passive beautiful
1090
00:51:40,318 --> 00:51:45,039
gal who isn't really doing anything
1091
00:51:42,719 --> 00:51:47,679
maybe they need to feel really important
1092
00:51:45,039 --> 00:51:48,960
by dating someone who's not happening
1093
00:51:47,679 --> 00:51:50,960
maybe i'm just too much for them to
1094
00:51:48,960 --> 00:51:54,000
handle i like the uh
1095
00:51:50,960 --> 00:51:54,000
the nervous breakdown
1096
00:51:54,559 --> 00:51:58,640
the uh whatever happens
1097
00:51:56,800 --> 00:52:00,559
it blows me away where i think there's a
1098
00:51:58,639 --> 00:52:02,239
happening guy and he thinks i'm
1099
00:52:00,559 --> 00:52:04,480
happening too it blows my mind i'm just
1100
00:52:02,239 --> 00:52:06,239
like no way it still really surprises me
1101
00:52:04,480 --> 00:52:08,159
people like that do exist
1102
00:52:06,239 --> 00:52:09,759
i had a boyfriend not too long ago i
1103
00:52:08,159 --> 00:52:11,920
think i kind of turned him off because
1104
00:52:09,760 --> 00:52:15,840
i'm loud and like it cuts just as much
1105
00:52:11,920 --> 00:52:18,480
as any man i think that scares some guys

[Music]
1107
00:52:18,480 --> 00:52:22,400
and i start thinking well maybe i uh
1108
00:52:21,440 --> 00:52:24,940
i should
1109
00:52:22,400 --> 00:52:30,150

it's about being taken seriously as a

woman and having a voice and a choice
1115

00:52:48,159 --> 00:52:52,879
mary of magdalene and how she was really
1118
00:52:50,639 --> 00:52:55,118
good friends with christ and that he
1119
00:52:52,880 --> 00:52:57,440
spoke through her after he died and
1120
00:52:55,119 --> 00:53:00,440
nobody believed her because she was a

[ __ ]

chosen one you know you're a [ __ ] i
1126
00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:40,480

1127
00:53:37,599 --> 00:53:43,519
always been considered the town [ __ ]
1128
00:53:40,480 --> 00:53:47,800
and the town [ __ ] and in 10 20 years
1129

1132
00:54:05,679 --> 00:54:10,879
and the world's terms and trying to
1133
00:54:08,159 --> 00:54:12,799
subvert some sort of archetype because i
1134
00:54:10,880 --> 00:54:15,200
had so much
1135
00:54:12,800 --> 00:54:17,359
insecurity about that archetype in my
1136
00:54:15,199 --> 00:54:20,318
own life and didn't really want to
1137
00:54:17,358 --> 00:54:22,400
participate in that archetypical way but
1138
00:54:20,318 --> 00:54:26,719
at the same time i knew that being all
1139
00:54:22,400 --> 00:54:28,559
haggy or butch or just plain
1140
00:54:26,719 --> 00:54:30,959
it was fine with me
1141
00:54:28,559 --> 00:54:33,519
in terms of my colossal
1142
00:54:30,960 --> 00:54:36,318
legendary vanity but it seemed more
1143
00:54:33,519 --> 00:54:39,838
powerful to create something else just
1144
00:54:36,318 --> 00:54:39,838
to see what would happen

my band but dancing and had to play this
1148
00:55:02,318 --> 00:55:08,159
ridiculous archetype at work so i took

just like high heels and white pumps and
1150
00:55:08,159 --> 00:55:15,399

worshiping in the alder of beauty is

it's really important to get rid of all

the distinctions because it just puts
1208
00:57:40,480 --> 00:57:45,119
people in such small boxes
1209
00:57:43,119 --> 00:57:47,280
come out of the womb you know it's like
1210
00:57:45,119 --> 00:57:48,960
it works and even if your parents are
1211
00:57:47,280 --> 00:57:50,880
like cool or whatever and they don't
1212
00:57:48,960 --> 00:57:53,880
shove gender down your throat you go to

so when people are confronted with it
1215
00:57:57,679 --> 00:58:02,798
the immediate reaction is an anxiety one

female in the audience
1217
00:58:02,798 --> 00:58:08,228

go to certain shows

and if somebody starts messing around
1224
00:58:29,838 --> 00:58:32,239
once once they get in there and if

over the place even in new york city me
1234
00:58:45,358 --> 00:58:47,759
and my friends we could have someone
1235
00:58:46,480 --> 00:58:50,318
walk in the street like i would never
1236
00:58:47,760 --> 00:58:51,599
take the subway even dressed in my like
1237
00:58:50,318 --> 00:58:53,119
jeans and a t-shirt because the fact
1238
00:58:51,599 --> 00:58:54,079
that i've read an hour taking the subway
1239
00:58:53,119 --> 00:58:55,760
in brooklyn people are just like
1240
00:58:54,079 --> 00:58:57,680
freaking it's dangerous people are
1241
00:58:55,760 --> 00:58:59,599
physically abusive people are scared a
1242
00:58:57,679 --> 00:59:01,199
lot of it comes from the home women must
1243
00:58:59,599 --> 00:59:03,599
suppress their
1244
00:59:01,199 --> 00:59:06,879
physical side their aggressive side
1245
00:59:03,599 --> 00:59:08,960
which we all have and men are taught to
1246
00:59:06,880 --> 00:59:11,440
suppress their sensitive side and not to
1247
00:59:08,960 --> 00:59:13,358
cry otherwise they're not men and the
1248
00:59:11,440 --> 00:59:14,880
more i think about that that's absurd
1249
00:59:13,358 --> 00:59:16,960
you're cutting off
1250
00:59:14,880 --> 00:59:18,798
half of who everybody is
1251
00:59:16,960 --> 00:59:20,880
by denying that
1252
00:59:18,798 --> 00:59:24,318
part of yourself and to me
1253
00:59:20,880 --> 00:59:26,318
being physical and getting on stage and
1254
00:59:24,318 --> 00:59:28,400
really letting it out and sweating
1255
00:59:26,318 --> 00:59:30,480
profusely which doesn't sound like a
1256
00:59:28,400 --> 00:59:32,880
feminine thing but to me i think it's
1257
00:59:30,480 --> 00:59:35,119
very sexy be up there and just
1258
00:59:32,880 --> 00:59:38,000
let loose sweat all over the place
1259
00:59:35,119 --> 00:59:40,079
that's really important a lot more girls
1260
00:59:38,000 --> 00:59:42,000
are capable of doing it and want to do
1261
00:59:40,079 --> 00:59:44,000
it maybe they have friends that are on
1262
00:59:42,000 --> 00:59:45,679
their case about trying to start a band
1263
00:59:44,000 --> 00:59:47,679
and making fun of them that happens a
1264
00:59:45,679 --> 00:59:49,838
lot you have to really dig down
1265
00:59:47,679 --> 00:59:51,759
and just say i don't give a [ __ ] it's my
1266
00:59:49,838 --> 00:59:54,078
life i'm gonna do it eventually i think
1267
00:59:51,760 --> 00:59:56,400
those walls will come down they're gonna
1268
00:59:54,079 --> 00:59:58,318
have to people are becoming too militant
1269
00:59:56,400 --> 01:00:01,119
about it and not just women there's a
1270
00:59:58,318 --> 01:00:02,400
lot of men into seeing women get their
1271
01:00:01,119 --> 01:00:03,838
justice
1272
01:00:02,400 --> 01:00:05,200
girls can rock this hardest guy doesn't
1273
01:00:03,838 --> 01:00:06,480
mean what their anatomy is hello who
1274
01:00:05,199 --> 01:00:07,519
cares about their attitude as long as
1275
01:00:06,480 --> 01:00:08,798
they're out there playing their music
1276
01:00:07,519 --> 01:00:10,239
that's all we need
1277
01:00:08,798 --> 01:00:12,318
i don't care if they're girls if they're
1278
01:00:10,239 --> 01:00:14,719
transvestites up there freaking they had
1279
01:00:12,318 --> 01:00:14,719
a player
1280
01:00:20,239 --> 01:00:24,078
there's so many more opportunities for
1281
01:00:21,760 --> 01:00:25,920
women today now i think historically
1282
01:00:24,079 --> 01:00:27,440
they're coming into their own the rock
1283
01:00:25,920 --> 01:00:29,599
bands have been around for a long time
1284
01:00:27,440 --> 01:00:31,519
we've been predominantly
1285
01:00:29,599 --> 01:00:33,359
successful in the field and now i think
1286
01:00:31,519 --> 01:00:35,199
it's time women are taking charge it's
1287
01:00:33,358 --> 01:00:37,598
very upsetting to the status quo that
1288
01:00:35,199 --> 01:00:39,358
women can rock and rock hard and they
1289
01:00:37,599 --> 01:00:41,680
can yell and scream
1290
01:00:39,358 --> 01:00:43,358
say what they really feel and it's just
1291
01:00:41,679 --> 01:00:45,679
nuts it's outrageous because they've
1292
01:00:43,358 --> 01:00:48,480
never really done that patty smith
1293
01:00:45,679 --> 01:00:51,759
you know there's been a few but
1294
01:00:48,480 --> 01:00:53,920
not too far between there's this whole
1295
01:00:51,760 --> 01:00:54,799
flood of people expressing themselves
1296
01:00:53,920 --> 01:00:56,798
and it's
1297

they really want to see strippers

in my lifetime a time when a band can

1479
01:08:50,158 --> 01:08:55,039
times that being just like everyone else
1480
01:08:52,640 --> 01:08:57,520
being homogeneous has been the preferred
1481
01:08:55,039 --> 01:08:59,439
way of doing things i couldn't be in a
1482
01:08:57,520 --> 01:09:00,560
band with a bunch of girly girls
1483
01:08:59,439 --> 01:09:03,198
no way
1484
01:09:00,560 --> 01:09:05,839
it would be fun it only takes two of us
1485
01:09:03,198 --> 01:09:08,559
we have fun everybody burps and farts
1486
01:09:05,838 --> 01:09:10,640
and spits i can do whatever i want i'm
1487
01:09:08,560 --> 01:09:12,480
not gonna feel bad about it keep you on
1488
01:09:10,640 --> 01:09:15,279

[ __ ] yourself no but
1490
01:09:15,279 --> 01:09:18,400
one time i was on the subway with my
1491
01:09:16,880 --> 01:09:20,560
friend and she's a real little girl
1492
01:09:18,399 --> 01:09:22,639
these two guys got on and one of them is
1493
01:09:20,560 --> 01:09:25,520
real big he was saying some [ __ ] to us
1494
01:09:22,640 --> 01:09:27,119
and she went and spit on his arm and he
1495
01:09:25,520 --> 01:09:29,279
spit in her face i didn't even think
1496
01:09:27,119 --> 01:09:30,880
about it i just grabbed him i pushed him
1497
01:09:29,279 --> 01:09:32,960
through all these people to the end of
1498
01:09:30,880 --> 01:09:35,119
the car slammed him against the wall and
1499
01:09:32,960 --> 01:09:37,039
started punching and he was just like
1500
01:09:35,119 --> 01:09:39,519
because this little girl just like done
1501
01:09:37,039 --> 01:09:42,359
this and i booked out of the train and
1502
01:09:39,520 --> 01:09:45,519
that guy deserved to get punched
1503
01:09:42,359 --> 01:09:45,519
[Music]
1504
01:09:48,479 --> 01:09:52,238
i wish that i could [ __ ] go out there
1505
01:09:50,158 --> 01:09:53,920
and take my [ __ ] shirt off and then i
1506
01:09:52,238 --> 01:09:55,839
have to be like
1507
01:09:53,920 --> 01:09:57,679
i might i'm vulnerable if my breasts are
1508
01:09:55,840 --> 01:09:59,119
showing i mean that's sec it pisses me
1509
01:09:57,679 --> 01:10:01,039
off parts of me wants to squat [ __ ]
1510
01:09:59,119 --> 01:10:02,559
like naked it's weird because like
1511
01:10:01,039 --> 01:10:04,399
that's a weird band thing you don't want
1512
01:10:02,560 --> 01:10:05,520
to be thought of as a [ __ ] sex object
1513
01:10:04,399 --> 01:10:06,719
but i'd like to think that you could go
1514
01:10:05,520 --> 01:10:08,560
out there and show your tits and [ __ ]
1515
01:10:06,719 --> 01:10:10,560
hold a chainsaw at the same time it's a
1516
01:10:08,560 --> 01:10:12,800
perfect way to like integrate i don't
1517
01:10:10,560 --> 01:10:15,679
have to cover my body and look like a
1518
01:10:12,800 --> 01:10:17,199
man to be as tough as a man
1519
01:10:15,679 --> 01:10:18,719
i don't really like having a big chest
1520
01:10:17,198 --> 01:10:20,799
it's kind of a drag because it's a very
1521
01:10:18,719 --> 01:10:23,279
vulnerable thing i can go swim a mile a
1522
01:10:20,800 --> 01:10:25,039
day and get every part of my body to be
1523
01:10:23,279 --> 01:10:27,679
lean and hard and i still have these
1524
01:10:25,039 --> 01:10:29,439
sensitive things it's not muscle it's
1525
01:10:27,679 --> 01:10:32,319
flesh the only time i really enjoy
1526
01:10:29,439 --> 01:10:35,519
having tits is like when i'm in bed that
1527
01:10:32,319 --> 01:10:36,960
is when i enjoy being a woman when i'm
1528
01:10:35,520 --> 01:10:37,840
with somebody
1529
01:10:36,960 --> 01:10:39,039
that i
1530
01:10:37,840 --> 01:10:41,520
trust
1531
01:10:39,039 --> 01:10:44,560
and i feel like i can be
1532
01:10:41,520 --> 01:10:46,400
a woman i don't feel safe
1533
01:10:44,560 --> 01:10:49,360
walking around
1534
01:10:46,399 --> 01:10:52,399
as a woman all the time because i feel
1535
01:10:49,359 --> 01:10:54,880
open to [ __ ] abuse i'm not taking
1536
01:10:52,399 --> 01:10:57,519
that from some [ __ ] on the street so
1537
01:10:54,880 --> 01:10:59,199
i'm just gonna be my androgynous self
1538
01:10:57,520 --> 01:11:01,360
out there but like give me an
1539
01:10:59,198 --> 01:11:03,359
opportunity to break it down and be
1540
01:11:01,359 --> 01:11:05,679
emotional and be fragile give me an
1541
01:11:03,359 --> 01:11:07,759
opportunity in a situation that i really
1542
01:11:05,679 --> 01:11:09,440
have to trust that situation but that's
1543
01:11:07,760 --> 01:11:11,520
freedom to not have to feel like you
1544
01:11:09,439 --> 01:11:13,279
have to be like tough and defensive and
1545
01:11:11,520 --> 01:11:15,199
protective to just be able to [ __ ]
1546
01:11:13,279 --> 01:11:17,198
like open your heart and [ __ ] open
1547
01:11:15,198 --> 01:11:19,519
your legs that's part of it where you're
1548
01:11:17,198 --> 01:11:21,039
a woman you're letting someone inside
1549
01:11:19,520 --> 01:11:25,159
you are vulnerable and that's why i
1550
01:11:21,039 --> 01:11:25,158
don't [ __ ] people that i don't trust
1551
01:11:26,560 --> 01:11:31,360
i'm spending my life exploring my
1552
01:11:28,719 --> 01:11:33,520
masculine side dedicating my life to it
1553
01:11:31,359 --> 01:11:35,759
even in what sex i want to be with in
1554
01:11:33,520 --> 01:11:37,460
every way putting on a [ __ ] and wanting
1555
01:11:35,760 --> 01:11:39,600
to [ __ ] a woman like a man
1556
01:11:37,460 --> 01:11:41,439
[Music]
1557
01:11:39,600 --> 01:11:44,320
i'm trying to relate with the world as a
1558
01:11:41,439 --> 01:11:45,279
male would so that i can get by and not
1559
01:11:44,319 --> 01:11:47,119
feel
1560
01:11:45,279 --> 01:11:48,319
all the setbacks that there are if
1561
01:11:47,119 --> 01:11:49,840
you're a woman
1562
01:11:48,319 --> 01:11:52,079
if you just look at someone on the
1563
01:11:49,840 --> 01:11:54,560
outside the outside might look very
1564
01:11:52,079 --> 01:11:56,880
masculine safe but i have other feminine
1565
01:11:54,560 --> 01:11:59,360
qualities that aren't just
1566
01:11:56,880 --> 01:11:59,359
visible
1567
01:11:59,679 --> 01:12:02,560
my friend the other day was walking down
1568
01:12:01,279 --> 01:12:04,399
the street and a guy went up and like
1569
01:12:02,560 --> 01:12:06,640
tweaked her tit like that
1570
01:12:04,399 --> 01:12:08,319
excuse me why are you doing that because
1571
01:12:06,640 --> 01:12:10,640
you're physically stronger than this
1572
01:12:08,319 --> 01:12:13,279
girl and you know that she can't punch
1573
01:12:10,640 --> 01:12:15,199
you in the face and actually do physical
1574
01:12:13,279 --> 01:12:17,519
harm to you would you walk up to some
1575
01:12:15,198 --> 01:12:19,279
guy and [ __ ] tweak his tick you know
1576
01:12:17,520 --> 01:12:21,120
no you wouldn't because he'd [ __ ] lay
1577
01:12:19,279 --> 01:12:23,439
you out nothing could be more degrading
1578
01:12:21,119 --> 01:12:25,760
than someone you don't know touching you
1579
01:12:23,439 --> 01:12:28,319
and and a goddamn private part of your
1580
01:12:25,760 --> 01:12:29,760
body when i was younger i shaved my head
1581
01:12:28,319 --> 01:12:30,880
and i had to skin it i wanted to make
1582
01:12:29,760 --> 01:12:33,679
myself
1583
01:12:30,880 --> 01:12:36,400
in people who would do that eyes as ugly
1584
01:12:33,679 --> 01:12:38,319
as i could because they would leave me
1585
01:12:36,399 --> 01:12:39,679
alone this is police mace my friend
1586
01:12:38,319 --> 01:12:41,359
god's illegal
1587
01:12:39,679 --> 01:12:42,880
just whip it around you can knock
1588
01:12:41,359 --> 01:12:44,000
somebody out with that or you can hold
1589
01:12:42,880 --> 01:12:45,600
it like this
1590
01:12:44,000 --> 01:12:47,119
this is really hard if you just whack
1591
01:12:45,600 --> 01:12:49,679
somebody in the head with it they'd be
1592
01:12:47,119 --> 01:12:51,279
out cold i'm sure if not dead hit them
1593
01:12:49,679 --> 01:12:53,600
in the nose probably could kill them
1594
01:12:51,279 --> 01:12:56,319
what i came away with from the riot girl
1595
01:12:53,600 --> 01:12:58,320
convention in dc was that riot girl is
1596
01:12:56,319 --> 01:13:01,039
about creating personal and social
1597
01:12:58,319 --> 01:13:03,759
change by identifying racism classism
1598
01:13:01,039 --> 01:13:06,000
and sexism empowering women by unifying
1599
01:13:03,760 --> 01:13:08,159
them and healing women's emotional
1600
01:13:06,000 --> 01:13:11,840
physical and sexual wounds through
1601
01:13:08,158 --> 01:13:14,319
meetings workshops fan zines and music i
1602
01:13:11,840 --> 01:13:16,400
just cut my hair every two weeks because
1603
01:13:14,319 --> 01:13:18,319
i wanted to look like a man in the dark
1604
01:13:16,399 --> 01:13:19,759
because if other men were in the dark
1605
01:13:18,319 --> 01:13:21,519
they would think i'm a man and wouldn't
1606
01:13:19,760 --> 01:13:23,039
bother me if i saw anyone wouldn't want
1607
01:13:21,520 --> 01:13:24,239
a man i would walk like he-man so
1608
01:13:23,039 --> 01:13:26,640
everybody would be afraid of me
1609
01:13:24,238 --> 01:13:26,639
basically
1610
01:13:27,520 --> 01:13:31,440
like [ __ ] like a man you know a riot
1611
01:13:30,079 --> 01:13:33,198
girl came to my school to talk about
1612
01:13:31,439 --> 01:13:35,439
sexual assault i'd been sexually
1613
01:13:33,198 --> 01:13:36,960
assaulted great whatever i kept it
1614
01:13:35,439 --> 01:13:39,359
bottled up and when she came to my
1615
01:13:36,960 --> 01:13:41,279
school and talked about it i just
1616
01:13:39,359 --> 01:13:43,039
it basically exploded so somebody comes
1617
01:13:41,279 --> 01:13:46,880
up and does something like that to you
1618
01:13:43,039 --> 01:13:50,079
just look them square in the eye and say
1619
01:13:46,880 --> 01:13:51,199
very nicely
1620
01:13:50,079 --> 01:13:52,399
get
1621
01:13:51,198 --> 01:13:58,158
your
1622
01:13:52,399 --> 01:14:00,319
hands off my body and my oh
1623
01:13:58,158 --> 01:14:02,000
what does riot grow mean to you women
1624
01:14:00,319 --> 01:14:04,559
getting together and being strong as
1625
01:14:02,000 --> 01:14:06,719
women and being sensitive as women and
1626
01:14:04,560 --> 01:14:08,640
being weak as women
1627
01:14:06,719 --> 01:14:10,480
but in a comfortable environment and if
1628
01:14:08,640 --> 01:14:12,320
that doesn't work square them in the
1629
01:14:10,479 --> 01:14:14,559
nuts and maybe they'll think twice about
1630
01:14:12,319 --> 01:14:16,639
it next time it's a place where they can
1631
01:14:14,560 --> 01:14:17,760
be weak without feeling like they're
1632
01:14:16,640 --> 01:14:20,320
going to be
1633
01:14:17,760 --> 01:14:23,119
taking advantage of a place where they
1634
01:14:20,319 --> 01:14:25,119
can be open and have a total trust i'm
1635
01:14:23,119 --> 01:14:26,640
really scared you should be grateful for
1636
01:14:25,119 --> 01:14:28,319
what i'm doing to you because when you
1637
01:14:26,640 --> 01:14:30,640

01:14:28,319 --> 01:14:32,559

1657
01:15:14,238 --> 01:15:17,599
why does misogyny
1658
01:15:23,520 --> 01:15:30,880
the exist that men have of women a lot
1659
01:15:26,238 --> 01:15:30,879
of men cannot relate to women at all
1660
01:15:32,158 --> 01:15:36,799
the only way they know how to relate to
1661
01:15:33,920 --> 01:15:38,880
women is through sex and control and if
1662
01:15:36,800 --> 01:15:41,360
they can't control us then they try and
1663
01:15:38,880 --> 01:15:41,359
kill us
1664
01:15:42,000 --> 01:15:46,880
rape's got the same effect it's just
1665
01:15:43,679 --> 01:15:46,880
like a control method
1666
01:15:48,960 --> 01:15:53,439
male and female are two halves of the
1667
01:15:50,800 --> 01:15:55,440
same coin and i think the problem comes
1668
01:15:53,439 --> 01:15:57,439
when people aren't in touch with their
1669
01:15:55,439 --> 01:16:00,399
other side the sexes have been
1670
01:15:57,439 --> 01:16:02,960
completely polarized the natural male
1671
01:16:00,399 --> 01:16:05,759
female relationship has been so screwed
1672
01:16:02,960 --> 01:16:08,719
up by social conditioning and a lot by
1673
01:16:05,760 --> 01:16:10,880

under control
1680
01:16:34,479 --> 01:16:38,879
as the master servant ritual that sort
1681
01:16:36,719 --> 01:16:41,279
of relationship will always work one
1682
01:16:38,880 --> 01:16:43,600
person sees and the other one does is
1683
01:16:41,279 --> 01:16:46,210
like the perfect relationship but it's
1684
01:16:43,600 --> 01:16:50,480

pedestal and look up to them and that's
1688
01:16:53,920 --> 01:16:57,440
why you have rock stars and movie stars

and stuff like that most people don't

just really into [ __ ] with people's
1700

heads about female role models and
1701
01:17:22,238 --> 01:17:26,799
what's expected and what people's idea
1702
01:17:24,399 --> 01:17:28,719
of beauty is that was really
1703
01:17:26,800 --> 01:17:30,000
important for me then i think probably
1704
01:17:28,719 --> 01:17:31,279
because i really didn't know where i was
1705
01:17:30,000 --> 01:17:33,198
at as a woman
1706
01:17:31,279 --> 01:17:35,359

took giving birth to a daughter
1708
01:17:35,359 --> 01:17:41,759

a sexual object for women we invented
