Judy Nails - Rock Goddess. Born Judith Ann Taylor, she earned her nickname at the age of 7 in a nail gun incident. It was a formative experience in unconventional behavior. Her parent tried to push a variety of "accaptable" pursuits, but by 12 it was obvious Judy had only one love: ROCK N' ROLL. The alternative rock scene was her inspiration nd salvation. She took her guitar, the cash from her mother's purse, and formed "The Nail Gunners". Judy is known for her experiments with non-standard tunings and jaw-dropping solos. In a recent court-room apperance Judy defended herself against charges that she struck a reporter, saying "He had asked about my hair and clothes, and not once about my music." The charges were eventually dropped. Rock on, Judy. - Guitar Hero manual bio.

After realizing that the majority of her fans were 14 year old boys, Judy dropped her label like a bad habit. In her debut solo effort, "Punkagothic Rockabillica", Judy brings her own style and shows she can shred as the sexiest girl ever making out with the big boys and then some other dudes. - Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock in-game bio
Judy's real love was rock, and ever since then she's only dated fellow musicians and geologists. She's got more attitude and raw talent than any other girl in alternative rock. Wherever Judy goes, loud noise and screaming crowds follow- sometimes from obsessive fans that just got her signature, and sometimes from nosy reporters who just got her fist in their face- Guitar Hero On Tour in-game bio.
According to the description on her "Skool Grrl" outfit, Judy was attending Catholic high school when she was 15, but was expelled.
