L7 - 'Andres' and 'Pretend We're Dead'
I miss listening to genuine rocker chicks like them. How do I know they were the real deal? Well only a real rocker chick would do this:
During their performance at the 1992 Reading Festival, the band experienced "technical difficulties with their audio equipment" and were forced to stall their set. The rowdy crowd grew restless and began throwing mud onto the stage. In protest, lead vocalist Donita Sparks removed her tampon on-stage and threw it into the crowd yelling "Eat my used tampon, beep Sparks has remained unapologetic about the incident. This has been referred to as one of the "most unsanitary pieces of rock memorabilia in history." -
