9:33 am
a singer. and i just think, you know, don't you guys wish that you were doing this? who doesn't want to be in a rock band? >> how does it make you feel? >> good. chrissie hynde is the face, the voice and the soul of the pretenders. for close to 40 years she's seen it all. and sung about it. but some of her best known work is about an old love affair, not with a person, but a place. i went back to ohio. >> when you think of cities that inspire songs. akron, ohio, might not spring to mind. they once produced so many tires here you could smell rubber in the air day and night. it was like that when christine ellen hynde was born in 1951. the second child of a secretary
9:34 am
and phone company worker. both were decidedly old school. >> my dad was of the school of, you know, if he heard bob dylan, he can't even sing. >> chrissie had music in her blood. she was indifferent studenta bored middle class kid whose only real interests were music and drugs were you an addict? >> probably. yeah, probably. >> to what? >> going out and seeing bands and getting high. >> and as she writes in a new memoir she fell win a group of outlaw bikers and once wound upbeat enand raped. hynde partly blames herself for the incident and has recently come under fire for saying so. >> you know, if you hung out with those guys that's what happened. that's the way it was. >> it just kind of went with the territory? >> of course. if you go hang out with ought laws and criminals that's just
9:35 am
part of it. >> did you at the time fear for your life? >> not really. but i should have. and other people around me should have. but we weren't thinking that way. we were just -- just trying to score pot and see bands. that's all we wanted to do. if motorcycles were part of it then even better. >> were the bikers part of the reason that you thought you needed to get out? >> i would say -- there was certain elements that i wanted to avoid, yeah. >> like -- a lot of these guys once you get involved in them you don't get out especially if you're a woman you become property. >> you could have been headed down that path? >> definitely. >> eventually she decided that there was nothing left for her in ohio. >> you don't want to move into the suburbs what are you going to do there? a lot of american cities lost
9:36 am
their youth population when their downtowns collapsed they all bailed to wherever. denver or new york or -- >> london. >> well in my case it was is london but i had a destiny to fulfill. >> obvious in london she spent better part of five years struggling to be in a band. in 1978 lightning struck. chrissie hynde found three kindred spirits, musically, anyway, and formed the pretenders. almost overnight the group was critical and commercial triumph but there would be no happily ever after. by the spring of 1938 two of the band's founding members, guitarist james honeyman scott and bassest pete farndon would drugs. when jimmy died at age 25 and
9:37 am
then pete died less than a year later, did you think, maybe i won't go on with the band? >> no. i knew i wasn't going to go on with that band. i had to keep making records because i had to pay the bills keep my thing alive. that's good thing about taking long time to establish what you're doing making a lot of mistakes along the way you finally achieve what you were going for. if it suddenly is taken away from you you don't want to let it go. >> she's still holding it together. the akron she knew is gone but the city is coming back. and hynde, who still lives in londons coming back here more often than these, too. here.
9:38 am
it's a 1971 pontiac lemans t37. that's her pal gabe troppe at the wheel. when you were growing up how different did this look? >> totally different. >> you haven't seen akron until you've seen it like this. from the front seat of a muscle car with chrissie hynde as your tour guide. >> i like it because it's old and it's beautiful. >> took us by a place she hung cemetery. did it creep you out walking around here? >> , no i like ghosts. >> hynde is a strict vegetarian we skipped the burger joint but one akron landmark she just couldn't pass up. >> right near krispy kreme donuts. >> tomorrow is her 64th birthday but clear that the mother and grandmother doesn't hit the donut shop touch she's cut way back on the partying. >> comes to the same conclusion that they have to back off. is. >> when did you come to that conclusion?
9:39 am
>> probably when i was 60. >> it just means i can sleep better. i'm not afraid to go out at night because i'm pretty sure midnight i know i'll get home. >> may be international rock superstar, but here in ohio chrissie hyped is just another customer in line. and that's basically how she sees herself. >> like the best city. >> i don't like calling myself an artist whatever i am. >> why not an artist? >> just sounds pompous. i think of vangogh as an artist. of someone really with a paint brush. anyway -- >> wait a minute, chrissie, do you think you're talented? >> i -- i never really thought of it like that. everyone has their talents. >> i know what mine are. mine is looking after a band and
9:40 am
orchestrating a rock band, i'm kind of like an arranger. >> what about song writing? glike put a song together. only comes to life when i take it to the band. >> you're very modest about that. >> i'm not sure if that is modesty that's just the way i see that. >> you don't think that's modesty,. >> i wouldn't put in those terms myself. much better band leader than anyone else in the room. >> there we go. >> chrissie hynde has seen the best and worst life has to offer. but somehow she still finds it all pretty sweet. >> can't argue with that. >> pauley: coming up, the 1906 san francisco earthquake a survivor's story. what a surprise! you know what else is a surprise? shingles.
