Stiletto, I look at it more as an attitude as opposed to a high-heeled shoe.Collection: Attitude
I like to travel. I love touring, I love playing.Collection: Travel
It's better for me to play with guys because Rock 'n' Roll has such an aggressive attitude.Collection: Attitude
I need that aggressive attitude to play my music and more men have that attitude than women.Collection: Attitude
Joe Walsh is a great guy and and an unbelievable talent, I'd like to work with him again someday.
But duets are a lot of fun, I'd love to do another one.
I was eleven and I wanted to play it because it was in my blood. It was a feeling I couldn't deny.
I worked at the cosmetic counter at a fine department store.
I loved Herman's Head. And it was a great experience.
I don't smoke, so they never sent me a copy.
But when I record my next studio album, of course I'll do the lead vocals.
I didn't tour Europe, because I didn't have any label support.
You can never learn it all and I hope to continue my growth as a person and a musician.
I've got a great place, it's a country house.
We've got horse property and there's other stuff to do. Like, four wheel driving, we barbeque, drink beers, sit around and play guitars and have a merry 'ol time.
We don't have a lot of neighbors so we can blast the stereo.
I'm not much of a club goer because every time I do go I get in trouble.
I'm happy when I'm doing what I do best.
I have no skanky guys in my band nor on my bus. If they are they get the boot real quick.
I did play every little note on the guitar on that record.
I have a lot of female fans.
It's nice when they say I inspire them, it inspires me.
I think it gets boring (for the audience) for the lead singer to have a guitar hanging on them all the time.
You're stuck in front of the microphone. You can't use your hands. I like to do things.
Don't get me wrong, I've seen some very excellent women musicians.
Life has become serious for me, although I do like to party every now and then.
I met a lot of amazing people whose lives were changed (for the better) by the power of music. Music gave them strength to get out of abusive relationships or to just pick up a musical instrument and learn to play.Collection: Play
It's nice when they say I inspire them, it inspires meCollection: Nice
I don't want to change. I don't ever want to be a stuck-up asshole. I mean, some people probably think I am now, but I don't care what they think, because I know I'm not. I'm a down to earth person. I always have time for my fans. I don't care who they are, what they look like, if they're rich or poor, pretty or ugly. I always have time for them. I wouldn't be where I am today if it wasn't for them, and I'll never forget that.Collection: Mean
Being a female hard rocker and guitar player, I felt the need to put out a memoir. Almost like a rock 'n' roll women manual for women.Collection: Player

You can never learn it all and I hope to continue my growth as a person and a musicianCollection: Growth
I was never ready to give up, but I did get words of confidence to move forward from a few musicians that had climbed up the totem pole of rock. They were encouraging words that struck a nerve with me and made me stronger.Collection: Giving Up

I'm not much of a political person and even if I was, look, Rock 'n' Roll is supposed to be fun and sexy and a little bit dangerous.Collection: Sexy

I have very heartwarming fans.Collection: Fans
People that work in a business are likely to date somebody that is in the same business. If you are a doctor, you might go out with one of the nurses. Or if you're a bank teller, you may go out with one of the bankers.Collection: Doctors

I had funny memories, too, but the music was more important to me than anything else.Collection: Memories
I don't really have any "must work withs," but I would never refuse if a celebrity or fellow musician came along who is willing to write or sing or play on a Lita song.Collection: Song
I would like to work with a great producer who I haven't met yet. I'm not sure who he is, but I'm looking for someone to take me to the next level.Collection: Next
So I always get in some kind of situation where next thing I know it's four a.m. and I go, uh oh, I have a photo session first thing in the morning!Collection: Morning
