June Millington Quotes

�Girls didn�t feel they had the right to pick up an electric guitar�that was the problem,�
�It�s not that they weren�t into Jimi Hendrix. The thought just wouldn�t have struck them to go out and buy a guitar and an amplifier and try to figure out how to get those sounds. I remember in high school standing in front of the Grateful Dead and watching Jerry Garcia and I remember the thought going through my mind, �How can I play like that?� It really scared me because I couldn�t figure it out. But we kept doing more gigs and I�d meet enough nice guys who would show me things, and if I learned one little thing I would go home and I would really practice and so that�s what it took. We had to work so much harder than everybody else because girls weren�t given the right to do that. It�s harsh but it�s true.�
