Now I wonder how bands ever got noticed now without having all these self-promotion tools available. Even with social media, I'm still having a hard time getting my new album off the ground, even though it is a good one! The documentary was a nice touch, and I'm sure it help move L7 up the ladder a few points! Good luck!

I really loved the song, fast forward to February 1997, I saw L7 open for Marilyn Manson and that was amazing... The show was on a weekday and that weekend I went out and bought "The Beauty Process", which is still, one of my top 20 albums.

The Kickstarter goal I believe was $97,000, and ended in an excess of $33,000. I wondered if this is what allowed the band to tour again, as for the documentary/dvd being released around Christmas time, we'll have to just wait and see. The release date keeps being pushed back, and I'm just thinking if the Kickstarter money raised for the documentary, was actually used for the tour.

I hope they do put out new material because Donita Sparks is one hell of a song writer and composer. If not for the music industry being in the state that it is in now Transmiticate would have gone platinum in my opinion. That album is fucking good. Good music is timeless which is the reason so many of their fans wanted to see them get back together. I'm thinking they should simply utilize the internet and stay independent. There are a lot of youngins around my way who have become stars simply from using social media which has forced a lot of record labels to have to fuck with them. Hell, look at Justin Bieber, Soulja Boy and Chief Keef. I named them simply because they are well known but there are so many others and none of them have half the talent of L7 in my opinion. Hopefully them getting back together will go well because real bands deserve their piece of the pie, again, in my opinion.

Thank you for the very good and interesting questions about Motörhead, Tardis. ‘Better’ in this context lies in the eye of the beholder. Personally, I enjoy every Motörhead album, but, if I’d have to decide on my personal top 5 studio albums that’d be: March or Die, Motörizer, Bad Magic, Bomber, Ace of Spades. Which are your favorite Motörhead albums? Also, although No Sleep to Hammersmith is a legendary and great live album which I enjoy very much, I especially love The Wörld Is Ours Vol. 2. Just gives me something special. In short: I’ve been listening to Motörhead since 1916 came out. Hence, I like to believe that I’m legit ;-) /Sebi, the guy in the Motörhead shirt

I am only watching this because Joan Jett has mentioned L7 a few times in interviews and evidently is a fan. But, upon reading about the band, I was grossed out by their antics. Especially the way this woman dropped her pants on live TV, and the way she removed her tampon right in the middle of a concert and threw it at the audience, just because they were acting rude. Someone should have reminded her that two wrongs don't make a right! Disgusting, really. And I'm just sad that Joan likes them. But, maybe she is just a little more lenient than me. But even so, I hope she wouldn't like these things either. Kathleen Hanna has also done some things that have made me go "Good gosh!!" :-( As women in rock, Kathleen and Donna and others like them could certainly take a lesson from fellow female rocker Melissa Etheridge, on how to rock without the chip on the shoulder!

Thank you very much for watching this and sharing your views with us. By the way, if you search for Melissa Etheridge on our KZitem channel, you’ll find an interview we did with her in Zurich. Very nice person and interesting artist as well. / Sebi

I'm a huge fan of Joan. You should know that in the Runaways she fed some guy a popsicle made of urine. They also tied and stripped some guy to a pole. I think you have no business listening to rock n' roll. You don't have to like L7 but your comment on antics is ignorant. Especially critizing a medium that is all about rebellion. Fighting the status quo. Please keep listening to Melissa Etheridge. You have no place in rock.

Thank you, I will- because Melissa Etheridge is rock! And yes, I DID already know that about the pee pop-sickle. So? What's your point? Yeah, Joan has done some crazy stuff- which she admits. Do you think she's proud of every single thing she ever did? No. She's also admitted that she was bad with substance abuse back in the day too. Does that mean she thinks substance abuse is good now? Heck no! She won't even touch a drink anymore for the most part. So, she grew, she changed, she matured. But you see, the thing about Donita Sparks is that to this day, she has never admitted wrongdoing or that maybe she went overboard! Sort of like you went overboard with this and many other comments on KZitem- like the one wherein you said that you couldn't wait for Suzi Quatro to die! Being a huge fan of Joan, YOU should know that most of her antics from back in the day were done either in defense of others, or to get along with them. Her band-mates in The Runaways have even said as much. They have mentioned how Joan usually wasn't the trouble-maker, she was the diplomat. If she did make trouble, according to them, it usually wasn't her idea! You seem to like the idea of Joan, rather than Joan herself, and you like the idea of rock. Good for you. But, don't tell others that they have no place as rock fans- because to speak on behalf of all rock is not your place either!

Poor girl likes rock but can't handle the heat of it. Still no place for her here. You can try Pat Benatar and Melissa. Goodbye
