With the much talked about Tiger Woods press conference on my mind today, I wanted to find a throwback song to capture some of my personal annoyance with the incessant media coverage and judgment of Tiger Woods. Celebrity or not, we all deal with people who seem to be right there when things are going well for you and then turn when things get gloomy. I haven’t paid homage to female rockers yet in my Throwback Friday posts, so I’m digging up some Joan Jett and The Blackhearts today from the crates… “Fake Friends” is from Joan’s album aptly titled “Album” that was originally released in 1983.
