Re: off subject as i usually am/ girl bands

You are too modest, think your voice is above average! Maybe rock-n-roll is
masculine, don't know, but apart from Joan Jett we are talking about other
kinds of music? A long way from Jimi Hendrix and Elvis to Kristin Hersh and
Lisa Germano -  . And about liking or not liking various kinds of music, I
don't always know why! What we need, we like?
