Gina Schock is now two things that she was not a couple of weeks ago: a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame member, and a published author. “Made in Hollywood: All Access With the Go-Go’s,” a book of her ph…

Oh my God, everything makes me laugh. Obviously I have a pretty good sense of humor, and everything in this book has a touch of humor to it. In the early days, with my hair, that was kind of a bad Afro that I had, kind of — that was really pretty sad-looking, Then you see how I cut my hair off really short and dyed it black. An extreme makeover – and I was ready for it. And then we went thrift-store shopping for some good outfits for me.
It’s great that you had blinders on about what you faced. Was it encouraging, as the ‘70s progressed and there were handfuls of serious female rock musicians coming along? Was it gratifying to have some role models who were doing this thing you wanted to do? Funny that you mention “creampuffs from California.” People who just looked at the album covers, or just knew that you were based in L.A., have often been a little bit surprised when they hear you speak. You haven’t lost your Baltimore accent over the years, like lot of people who come to California from the east do. You still sound like where you’re from.
You mention, as others have in the past, that a lot of dispute in that first breakup had to do with songwriters being favored financially. And you say that somewhere in the more recent life of the band, that got resolved. Remembering the scare with your heart, was that something that was difficult at all to revisit, in writing the book?
In the documentary that came out last year , it kind of zeroes in on the moment you came into the band as being like, “Okay. Here’s somebody who’s like a serious musician; we’ve got to get serious now.”
