Wow been a fan since 2002 (Spend the night era), knew that they started out as Ragady Anne but didn't know that they got fame in Japan & toured as that band, little history of The Donnas that I didn't know.
Pure unadulterated beauty!!! Not all tatted up skanks!!! Let the music speak for itself, however it’s not the end game in the music business today. The looks have to come before the sound. 🤷♂️
Yeah I hope not as well. I pretty much grew up listening to The Donnas, and it would suck to have another fav band of mine split (ex: The Distillers, Tsunami Bomb) But I think these ladies have a rare and strong bond that will last for years to come! :D
its so sad that there are people (most guys) that underestimate The Donnas. They just need to accept there are some girls that can kick ass!!! here in mexico they are not too much appreciated... so bad! and when i convinced my friends to listen to them, at first they were like "yeah, sure, i bet they are girls just only playing ballads and snob songs" but after listen the songs they said: "wow! this is freaking awesome, are they girls really?"
@Thomflanagan I've seen the band since 1997, Allison (Donna R) has great, fleshy lips...that somehow don't make it into pictures or videos. All the girls used to be incredibly geeky, but that's one of many unusual things about them...it's what makes them so unique and special.
@MaggieCrook One similarity is they got famous by playing music written by a guy, but otherwise no. The Donnas were fully formed all by themselves. The Runaways were entirely the creation of Kim Fowley...I mean totally. Their name and songs came from Kim and his songwriting buddies, their record deal, videos, shows. The Runaways started out playing forums and large clubs with huge Marshall Amps and all new equipment--not true of the Donnas.
Yes Indeed the Runaways wrote the majority of their songs. Look at the writing credits. And no Kim Fowley did not form the band. Joan Jett wanted to start an all girl band and met Kim Fowley. He had already met Sandy West and hooked them up. It wasn't his vision.
hey someone PLEASE respond to this question of mine: WHATS THE SONG CALLED THAT STARTS AT THE TIME OF 2:40 and than fades into the backround until the time of 4:00? PLEASE ANSWER!
(my comment contiued) they don't suck there songs, to me at least are very well aranged. i have very high respect for female artist such as the donnas because they have to deal with people such as ur self. i mean hate is no way to get anywhere if u dislike them yeah i understand but to say they suck, as in have no musical talent wut so ever (because to me that is wut the word means) then I think u are wrong but i respect ur opinion
of corse that is ur personal opinion and i dont want to start an internet fight or anything of that nature but i just couldnt help but to reply to your comment. (i have to continue my comment 1 sec)
Everyone who aspires and shows ability gets torn down and ridiculed by the masses. I don't think it was because they were girls. That was just something to jibe them over. If they were boys, they would have copped juts as much disparagement.
and u cant really say we all have our hair parted the same way i mean look at briney spears..lol but my point is we are all indivduals and fyi i hate stunna shades i like to be more original so i wouldnt wear them
honestly im a nice person i honestly on my mothers life treat everyone as they deserve and as for other women i dont hate them. i like to make new friends no matter what they look like chubby skinny tall short i dont give a fuck cause for me its the person on the inside that counts the same goes for guys that i date (continuing)
The sad part is, no one cares about your gender, if you sucked, boy or girl, it is because you sucked. If you sound awesome, it's because you are awesome. it has nothing to do with your gender.
These chicks have a special place in my heart
Glad they kept with it. Great band🎸
Gotta love The Donnas. The best girl band ever, and one of my favorite rock n' roll bands. Too bad I didn't get to see them live.
love love love the donnas.
you girls sure showed them..........you go girls.
Woman can and do , dfo anything . These ladies have true talent and true grit
Wow been a fan since 2002 (Spend the night era), knew that they started out as Ragady Anne but didn't know that they got fame in Japan & toured as that band, little history of The Donnas that I didn't know.
lol at Allison's face when she says "I heard you play guitar", imagine how the guy who said that feels now...
I'm a drummer and I love to listen to Torry play!!!!!! She fucking ROCKS!!!!!!!!!
But ya did it, ladies. 🎉💪🎉
Hey, anybody else who laughs at these fantastic rockers, they can deal with me.
Little girls
To tiny teens
To beautiful women
Rock on.
Peace on earth.
Rockin The Knife!!! I wish I'd played something that cool at my first gig.
omg, they are just awesome girls
Fall behind me
I loved their SNL performance.
simply put...
the donnas kick maximum ass!!!
Poor Torry! She was one my inspirations to become a drummer! I'm gonna miss her!
Well you should them all what you could do. Just so hard to do what you did. Lots of us admire you girls. You earned it.
They rock.
Allison and Shirley Manson (from Garbage) are my fav rock girls
Well said!
No problem. I don't think Allison would do that, I think she knows that it's Donnas forever. Yeah what they do have is rare, and it's great :)
Shonen Knife cover in their first show!
Allison ❤️
I f'n miss Torry!!
nice :)
Love Allison' faces in the interview
Pure unadulterated beauty!!!
Not all tatted up skanks!!!
Let the music speak for itself, however it’s not the end game in the music business today.
The looks have to come before the sound. 🤷♂️
Wish they would have continued.
me too!
HAHA. Allison's guitar riffs are awesome. And her solos aren't bad either.... though i wish she would play some crazier ones, it seems like she could.
Yeah I hope not as well. I pretty much grew up listening to The Donnas, and it would suck to have another fav band of mine split (ex: The Distillers, Tsunami Bomb) But I think these ladies have a rare and strong bond that will last for years to come! :D
Duuude... :(
Hey Donna…..do ya wanna???
I don't know why but for me are like the Jossie and the pussycats from the real life.
torry's a little cutie too
Donna A has a little bit of an Emma Stone vibe going.
its so sad that there are people (most guys) that underestimate The Donnas. They just need to accept there are some girls that can kick ass!!!
here in mexico they are not too much appreciated... so bad! and when i convinced my friends to listen to them, at first they were like "yeah, sure, i bet they are girls just only playing ballads and snob songs" but after listen the songs they said: "wow! this is freaking awesome, are they girls really?"
Debbie Gibson at the beginning. ❤️
i love torry and brett

@powergirl901 The Runaways (mostly) wrote their own songs, i'm sure I read that somewhere.

awsome how old are u guys?

Haha I reckon hey!
@greendayforever2k9 I'm not in the fighting mood today, so my answer is, "why of course they did. It's common knowledge. Yes you read it somewhere."
(my comment contiued) they don't suck there songs, to me at least are very well aranged. i have very high respect for female artist such as the donnas because they have to deal with people such as ur self. i mean hate is no way to get anywhere if u dislike them yeah i understand but to say they suck, as in have no musical talent wut so ever (because to me that is wut the word means) then I think u are wrong but i respect ur opinion
the solo in Wasted was pretty crazy ! lol i thought anyway,
Where did you hear that Allsion was gunna break up The Donnas?
its not fall behind me!
of corse that is ur personal opinion and i dont want to start an internet fight or anything of that nature but i just couldnt help but to reply to your comment. (i have to continue my comment 1 sec)
or you could just tell me how?
LOL what the heck. HOW are they snobs?! bad experience with a snob? =S
i have experienced snobs yes. to me a snob is a fool. thier snobs by the way they act. if you have to ask you'l never know.
@PindamonhaMAN
He'd be regretting it now considering Allison is both smokin' hot and can play
I would like some one to make a movie about their life story but do it right and do not Fuck it up please . Thank you have a good day
Their new stuff is good but not great.
Seriously I don't know whether to be attracted to the guitarist or intimidated.
you must not know a lot of bands then
Everyone who aspires and shows ability gets torn down and ridiculed by the masses. I don't think it was because they were girls. That was just something to jibe them over. If they were boys, they would have copped juts as much disparagement.
Real punk bands don't play solos. One of the original New York punks was female, Patti
and u cant really say we all have our hair parted the same way i mean look at briney spears..lol but my point is we are all indivduals and fyi i hate stunna shades i like to be more original so i wouldnt wear them
Aren't they a great band anymore?
honestly im a nice person i honestly on my mothers life treat everyone as they deserve and as for other women i dont hate them. i like to make new friends no matter what they look like chubby skinny tall short i dont give a fuck cause for me its the person on the inside that counts the same goes for guys that i date (continuing)

Fall behind me
