**GIVEAWAY FOR THE LADIES!!!** WINNER!!

Loulou

Hi everyone! :wave:

I have a 'ROCK CHICKS, Female Rockers from the 1960s to Now' book i would like to giveaway. It is practically brand spanking new and features women such as Stevie Nicks, Joan Jett, PJ Harvey, Annie Lennox and heaps more. An interesting read.

What the hey! I'll throw in a brand new, XL ladies Avocado t-shirt too. Its too short for my liking so i have never worn it.
I would love to give this away to a female, whether it be a fellow PJ member or a PJ member's sister, wife, mother etc. so feel free guys to enter on behalf of them.

Just tell me your favourite female rocker and I will pick a winner on Tuesday. Good luck folks and take care.

I know she hasn't had anything new in many years, but I've always loved to rock out to Pat Benatar! Thanks for the chance.

So hard to pick just one!

Janis Joplin
Stevie Nicks
Debbie Harry
Alanis Morissette
Delores O'Riordan
Fiona Apple
Tori Amos
PJ Harvey
Sheryl Crow
Tracy Chapman
Marianne Faithful
Courtney Love
Gwen Steffani (circa No Doubt)
All played a big part in my life at some stage.

If I had to pick just one it would probably be Shirley Manson from Garbage. I idolised her as a teenager.

Loulou

Great to hear more talk about women rockers! :thumbup: Tink, I love Shirley Manson, her voice and her style. Alanis is great too and Patti Smith and Pat Benetar, good stuff!!

Nice List! I love a lot of these girls.

So I'm back, to the velvet underground
Back to the floor, that I love
To a room with some lace and paper flowers
Back to the gypsy, that I was
To the gypsy, that I was

And it all comes down to you
Well, you know that it does
Well, lightning strikes, maybe once, maybe twice
Ah, and it lights up the night
And you see your gypsy
You see your gypsy

Gotta go with my girl Stevie Nicks.

I think Courtney Love gets such a bad rap, but in the end she really rocks hard. I enjoy Love. I also feel very lucky that I got to see the legendary Ms. Patti Smith at the WM3 benefit in Little Rock. I love women who show that we can rock just as hard as the boys can.

Bravo! Hole used to be pretty hardcore, and i think Live Through This is probably my favorite album of all time.I downloaded a bunch of Hole rarities years ago that would seriously blow people away. I'm so jealous you went to the WM3 benefit! I have met Patti, at one of her poetry readings and she signed a cd for me, but I've still never seen her perform. :(

Agreed! The woman has some great music, especially good to listen to when your angry. The woman no doubt has a few issues but don't we all? :?

I always joke that I'm her only fan, which is barely a joke. I've gotten some cool memorabilia since nobody else wants it Nice to see some other fans.

I love Janis, Heart, Stevie, PJ Harvey, Linda Perry, Shirley Manson, Mia Zapata...I can't pick just one!

No female ever rocked harder than Joan Jett in my opinion. I'd go gay for her...I mean since I'm a female trapped in a man's body...er...wait...nevermind.

I think it is mainly all the Kurt worshipers. Kurt and Courtney both had problems and were very co-dependent. I think it is completely unfair to hold him to one standard and her to another. They both were young, famous, and addicts with problems. I cannot believe that some actually think she had something to do with his death. If anything, she is a scape-goat. I think they would rather blame her than realize the extent of Kurt's issues. **Disclaimer: I like Kurt too, just get sick of all the conspiracy theories.
