The Go-Go's Rock Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony 2021

Published 2023-01-18
Gina Schock is best known for being the drummer and one of the songwriters of The Go-Go’s, arguably the most successful all-female group in the history of rock music, with hit songs including “Our Lips Are Sealed," “We Got The Beat,” and “Vacation.” She and the band faced overwhelming odds and sexism in an industry that hadn’t quite accepted that women can rock. Through force of will and hard work, The Go-Go’s overcame these obstacles and made their mark on music.
In 2021, Schock and The Go-Go’s took their place amongst other legends in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. That same year, Schock published Made In Hollywood, documenting her account of the band and its history.
Check out my interview with the irrepressible Gina Schock either on my website abreathoffreshair.com.au/episodes/a-frank-and-funn… or on your favourite podcast platform.
What you'll find is that she's not only a fabulous drummer, she's a bubbly, funny person who loves to share a story, a joke and a warm chat.

    In 1983 I had a huge crush on Kathy Valentine. I was a college student working a summer job at Houston’s Astroworld. The Go Gos performed one night and after the park closed they were given a private ride on the Texas Cyclone. I was staring at Kathy with adoring eyes in my stupid Astroworld uniform from like 20 feet away. 😂😂😂

    Those women rocked the world. I'm very happy to see them in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

    Been listening to them for 43 years & they still sound great. Plus they all looked good back then & still looking good to this day! Rock on sisters 👍
  • My sister bought beauty and the beat. I fell in love with it. Gina Schock inspired me to be a drummer. Im so happy they got in the Hall of fame they soooo deserve it

    Such a fun group. The Go Go's will always be one of my top two favorite bands. The Go Go's and Duran Duran. Congratulations to them both.
  • Jane is dressed like a beautiful Bay City Roller here! Especially the stroller pants and boots. Love it.

    I was honored to see this performance live. Two years later my wife and I often talk about it, as one of the most special moments in 80s reunions.
  • Amazing that it took SO LONG to get these talents into the hall of fame. My goodness what a long wait for them.
  • @all4you33
    It's Jane's verse on "Our Lips Are Sealed" that gets me every time.

    I’m 54 years old Go Gos for me was the best women’s band all the time

    The Go-Go’s still rocks!!!! And they still all look so beautiful!!!
  • @rafaelsale6364
    One of the best bands to ever come out in the 80s. They were one of the pioneers of new wave and pop punk. A long overdue honor.

    30 odd years ago Belinda was my teenage crush. Now she's still as gorgeous as ever
  • Wow! I found myself smiling ear to ear. They were brilliant and could go on tour even now and rock it! Love it! Congratulations, ladies! You all deserve it.
  • @jdwinks40
    Way overdue, but so glad it happened in their lifetime! Well deserved! My first vinyl record album I owned was Vacation and my first cassette was Beauty and the Beat. My favorite band when I was little ❤
