When it comes to girl bands, we're all rivals.
The press likes to create cat fights with girl bands.
The '90s is my favourite era of music, especially the girl-bands like Babes in Toyland.
People who like girl bands are really different from regular band fans.
My great-grandmother was in one of the first girl bands, in the 1920s. Their outfits were mental: velvet bloomers with big ribbons and headpieces. They were brilliant.
There are plenty of groups that have come out and did whatever they did and have broken up. Especially girls groups.
There is a definite sound with all-girl bands, a good rudimentary sound, and that's what's cool and punk about all-girl bands that you still find, largely - it's really kind of primal.
The Bangles are proof that short skirts and electric guitars go hand-in-hand. They are one of the great all-girl groups, backing up their looks with a serious pop-rock pedigree.
