I’m a ’70s Girl
"...believe it or not, it's still considered pretty wild to be a girl fronting a rock band. Occasionally you’ll see a girl fronting a punk band, but that doesn't count." Just wanted to ask Rachel why being a female fronting a punk band "doesn't count" but being a singer in a pop/rock band "counts" when it comes to the struggles (and frustrations) that go along with being a female musician. Girlfriend, this doesn't even make sense!! Please explain. I partially agree with what she said, but I think ALL women can suffer, thus getting held back simply because we're women. If anything, more women front pop bands than punk bands, and those pop singers usually have a better chance of getting noticed than a female punk musician or female-fronted punk band just based on what the majority of music people listen to.— August 30, 2009 5:02 p.m.
