I saw the Runaways back in 1977 when I was 15 years old. A friend told me there was this “all-girl” rock band coming to town so I just had to check them out. Nobody had heard of an “all-girl” rock band before! The opening bands were Cheap Trick and Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers. What a gig!! Of course at the time all three of these bands were virtually unknown.

I loved the movie about The Runaways. Kristen Stewart absolutely nailed Joan Jett-who has very particular mannerisms. For those who haven't seen the movie, it is purely from Cherie's viewpoint and definitely not comprehensive, but it gives a peek behind the curtains of what it was like to be in a mid 70's rock band.

Lita is such a down to earth person and still beautiful. She liked my Led Zeppelin shirt I had on. Very cool memory especially when I told her I’m playing BC Rich guitars too. My first BC Rich I bought in 1979 a Mockingbird made by the man himself.

I was blessed to see them perform as well as Cherie and her son in San Francisco. I was able to meet her and let her know the impact she had on my twin Sis and I. I stood before rock and roll greatness and will forever cherish that moment. Continue kicking ass, Cherie. I absolutely adore you!

Joan Jett deserves to be in the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame, she worked very hard for all of her success.

It's always funny for me,because Kim Fowley asked me if I wanted to be the lead singer of an all girl band he was putting together. I thought he was nutz,cos of where we were when he asked me. If he has asked me on the sidewalk instead of in the middle of Sunset Blvd,I might have said yes. How did I know that was how things worked in Hollywood back then. I was new to California. XD

Well, it may not be politically correct to say it, but older guys drooled over them, too. It wasn't only teenage boys. Their manager and producer Kim Foley wanted as big of an audience for them as possible. So there was definitely a sexual element in their presentation, and the audiences showed up for it!

Not 1 mention of Cherie being a World renowned chainsaw artist !!She is awesome I have seen some of her work on videos on this platform ! Cherie took care of an evil person who exploited teenage girls for monetary purposes he was also accused of physically abusing them !! It just proves Cherie’s heart was bigger then Fowley’s Ego at the end !! I think for sure Cherie’s voice hasn’t changed a bit since the Runaway days !! I love this group from the moment I heard them !!

I agree, I was really disappointed when I found out Dakota had been chosen for the role, she did not have Cherie's kind of ghostly, ethereal beauty. I thought she had a hard look in the movie and really didn't look much like her, made it hard for me to watch. It's true though, that it would be hard to find anyone who really looked like Cherie, she definitely has an unusual look.
