I like being in a girl band.
The best AC/DC cover I've heard? There was an all-girl cover band in America, the Hell's Belles.
Back in 1981, the chances of a punk-rock girl band from L.A. doing what we did was completely nil.
We didn't know it was going to be a career - it was just a lot of fun. We were known as the bimbo band and never expected to last.
I loooved Sleater-Kinney like a crazy person.
I would say the Go-Go's are pretty iconic but don't know if I'd refer to myself like that.
The odds were against us being an all-female garage band from California.
Actually, there was another band where we were three girls, around '84 when I met John Zorn, called Sunset Chorus. It was just bass and drums and guitar- we didn't make any records but we played a lot of different clubs in New York.
I did play the guitar and sing; I was in a band called The Estrogens: three females and one very brave guy.
We were approached to do the story of Bananarama as a film.
No one has done what we've done. We're the first female band to have a No. 1 record.
In April of 1978 I was asked to join an all-girl band that was just taking shape, The Go-Go's. It was one of those moments in my life - and there were many - when I just blurted out 'Yes!'
