Last weekend, our friend Gloria Rohlfs participated in a Girl’s Rock Philly Ladies Rock Philly weekend event. Girls Rock Philly teaches girls to play music and their weekend for adults was spectacular.
Gloria has real rock and roll presence as you can see in this You Tube clip. Her group, Rude Folx, debuted its WE’RE NOT SORRY! rock -n- roll rant — a needed feminist statement for ggrrlls of all ages.
The energy of the event was spectacular — and as Gloria aptly put it — this is an organization that is not uptight about age or gender. My partner said that it always was a fantasy of hers to play in a rock -n- roll band and plans to participate next year!
Yours truly will be taking the pictures!
