"My feet never touched the ground. Lots of good groups with crazy and unique images. It was wild. I spent all of my time doing gigs, TV appearances, interviews, or recording. I could write a book - and probably will"
About this Quote
When she drops "Lots of good groups with crazy and unique images", she’s clocking the era’s arms race of identity. In a scene where style could eclipse sound, "images" weren’t superficial; they were survival tech, a way to be legible at a glance in a crowded, fast-mutating culture. Quatro, as a leather-clad bassist fronting her own band in a male-dominated industry, understood image as both weapon and shield. The subtext: you had to be unmistakable, or you’d be erased.
"It was wild" looks casual, but it’s doing heavy lifting. Wild can mean exhilarating, yes, but also unmanaged, unarchived, half-remembered because there was no time to metabolize it. The inventory that follows - gigs, TV, interviews, recording - reads like a factory line of self-production, the artist as content engine before "content" was the word.
"I could write a book - and probably will" is the quiet power move: reclaiming authorship. After years of being photographed, packaged, and narrated, she signals a pivot from being the story to telling it, on her terms.
