Ever since she took center stage in 1982 classic No. 1 “I Love Rock n’ Roll,” Joan Jett and her band scored hit after hit, ranging from the soft “Crimson and Clover” to the edgy “I Hate Myself for Loving You." After her much-publicized appearance in the 2013 Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, Jett reached out to a newer, younger generation of fans who totally rocked out to her high-energy vibe and powerhouse voice. The parade appearance topped off a banner year for Jett and her band, The Blackhearts, a year that included the release of “Unvarnished,” an album that spawned yet another Jett mega-hit, “Any Weather.” Even with her salty punk vibe, she quickly gained mainstream fame, so much so that Jett and her Blackhearts were the first rock group to perform on Broadway during the 1980s in a concert series that broke records for the fastest ticket sell-out.
Rejecting the glamorous pop-diva image, Jett has reveled in creating her own style of in-your-face, girl-from-the-other-side-of-the-tracks Gothic glamor that greatly influenced the subsequent generation of female rockers. A bona fide activist, Jett is considered a role model for generations of women because of her commitment to feminist causes. In addition, she is an outspoken animal rights activist and is heavily involved with groups like PETA. In 2010, Jett released a successful two-disc "Greatest Hits" album, which she followed in 2013 with “Unvarnished," a moving, uncompromising album. Jett is as much in the limelight as ever; and even her iconic “I Hate Myself For Loving You” has been transmogrified into the Sunday Night Football Theme for NBC. in 2014 Jett, along with her Blackhearts band, continue to tour throughout the world with her belty, tuneful voice; energetic, charismatic presence; and vibrant, resonating lyrics.

Fun night with good music and a feel good vibe. The kids who performed were awesome and the guest performers (Billie Joe Armstrong, Tommy James, Gary US Bonds, Jake Clemons, etc.) paying tribute to Joan Jett were pretty good too! Darlene Love stole the show with her amazing voice and infectious smile. Joan Jett still rocks! Happy to support Little Kids Rock and give kids a chance to express themselves and continue the rock and roll tradition.
Great overall performance Just wish it would've been longer
Missed her as a kid but glad I got to see her and would totally go again!
Great show by a rocker who has been kicking ass for 30 years.
Great show - awesome band - loved every minute of it. I went for my 62nd Birthday - The crowd was all ages . . . Everyone enjoyed the show. A not to be missed concert. Would love to see her team up with Mick Jagger . . .
Great show. Great venue. Great acoustics. Great voice! Wish she had played more of her hits though. Only a couple songs from Up Your Alley...
still fantastic. Great show!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! rock on Joan
Loved it. She's still rocking and sounded good. It was set-up in a conference room. Got a kick out of that, but it did not impact the quality of the show.
Title says it all...Joan was great and the place really rocked. The venue was equivalent to a high school gymnasium...
