Women Rock Day 2023

Some of my favorite rock stars over the years have been women.

Ann and Nancy Wilson of Heart
Shirley Manson of Garbage
Pat Benatar
Chrissie Hynde of The Pretenders
Tina Turner
Joan Jett
Stevie Nicks
Debbie Harry
Patti Smith

I remember moments sitting there in the audience wondering where all the riffs and licks being belted out originated. I remember the wild applause. I remember coveting their attentions otherwise as well.

So today is Women Rock Day. It is held each January 3 to honor the women of Rock music and to take note of them in all their glory !

While I hear mention of these women being pioneers of their art I prefer to simply refer to them as veterans and I will always take a moment to hear them out.

Women Rock !
