| Badass Joan Jett is coming to Mystic Lake |
In a dream lineup for lovers of badass women-fronted groups of the late '70s, Heart and Joan Jett and The Blackhearts plan to headline Mystic Lake Casino this summer.
The former Runaways renegade paired with the famous pair of sisters is a genius double-bill and shows at the casino's Ampitheater are a treat considering the great sound and ample tiered seating. For this gig though, we expect fans might want to get a bit more rowdy than the setup allows. These are classic rock queens, after all.

Joan Jett is more of a wild card on this lineup as she and her band The Blackhearts haven't played in Minneapolis since her First Avenue gig in 2006. She did headline a show on the casino circuit in Carlton in the winter of 2011 -- right around the time she was nominated as a 2012 Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame inductee but was passed over due to lack of votes. No big deal. It's not like she's been called "The Queen of Rock & Roll" or anything.
Tickets go on sale May 3.
Joan Jett & The Blackhearts and Heart play Mystic Lake Casino on Friday, June 29. Tickets $35, $41, $47. 8 p.m.
