| Torry is better known as Donna
C from the Donnas. The girls who would become The Donnas were all punk
sneers and bubblegum when they launched their careers as 13- and 14-year-olds
at Jordan Middle School nine years ago under the name Screen. Their efforts
were met by a cacophony of boos from boys. But the band persevered and
grew better. Gigs at teen centers grew to headlining nights at beer halls
and regional houses of rock repute. The Donnas snared a small label deal
with the help of a disc jockey from Stanford's radio station. And their music gradually blossomed into full-tempo songs full of attitude, brass and a no-frills approach to matters of the heart. The Donnas pal around with other tough-as-nails girl bands like Bratmobile. And they stick up for each other. And lest adoring fans think The Donnas might grow into listless 20-something rockers, too jaded to feel the pangs of youth, just look at their tour rider. At each stop, the menu includes bottled Bud and pizza. What's your favorite color? What's your favorite food/drink? Who's your favorite boy? What's your favorite animal? What's your favorite car?
