Review: Joan Jett & The Blackhearts rock Capitol Theatre in Port Chester (Includes first-hand account)

This rock concert was a fundraiser for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Family Services of Westchester (FSW), a local charity, and it was preceded by performances from local talent. The rock queen headlined this event with her gifted band, The Blackhearts.

Her set-list included her classic hits from The Runaways, as well as The Blackhearts, with such smash singles as “Do You Wanna Touch Me,” “TMI,” and a distinct cover of “Crimson and Clover.” She tipped her hat to “The Boss,” Bruce Springsteen, by singing “Light of Day.” Of course, no Joan Jett show is complete with out the spitfire “Bad Reputation” and “I Hate Myself for Loving You.” She got the crowd on their feet as she belted out her signature rock tune, “I Love Rock ‘n’ Roll.”

The Verdict

Overall, Joan Jett and The Blackhearts put on a top-notch rock show at the gorgeous Capitol Theatre in Port Chester. The Westchester audience knew that they were in the presence of rock empress. Their live show garnered an A rating.
