“The coolest thing about Joan is Joan.”

— Brad Elterman, replying to the question “What’s the coolest thing about Joan Jett?”

Gah. So many mixed emotions. But, I mean…shit. Miley. Nothing this awesome will ever happen to you again. Seriously. Appreciate that shit.

Thing is…she’s clearly nervous (duh) and she wants it too much. She’s trying too hard. And she’s trying to sing in a way that she isn’t used to - she sings pop/country. Not rock. There’s no growl…there’s no attitude. Joan just fuckin wails and makes it look so effortless, while Miley is trying so fucking hard. I mean, good on her. Not a fan, kind of baffled by the duet, but fuck it. She’s lucky as shit. Maybe Joan talked some sense into her…

I was never crazy about shooting live concerts. The photos were a dime a dozen. I was shooting really wide and I wanted to capture everything at this Runaways concert in 1978 at The Roxy. I did not want to miss a beat of Joan Jett in action! Put this one on your bedroom walls!!
