Another interesting fact about The Runaways, they wrote and played their own songs...yup, they were actually musicians. <BR/><BR/>While I was never a huge Lita Ford fan, she did become something of a heavy metal star/sex symbol back in the 80's.Sham aka Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14329116400656617173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5621016516937695074.post-74736250295493420882008-04-18T21:05:00.000-04:002008-04-18T21:05:00.000-04:00Good grief this band is older than me but it's so ...Good grief this band is older than me but it's so freaking awesome!<BR/><BR/>Look at the natural beauty of them all!
