Did she have some bad days caught on film? Hell yeah she did. But if I lived in the eye of a camera, I am sure I would have some less than attractive pictures too. She wasn't brushed up, she wasn't touched up, she didn't have fake tits or false eyelashes...She was REAL! From her voice to her tat to her whiskey binges, she was a real woman. And that is why I love her. :)Keair Snydernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-188724087075739853.post-60640986310173554592010-02-10T22:15:24.896-05:002010-02-10T22:15:24.896-05:00You picked the theme for tomorrow and it's a s...You picked the theme for tomorrow and it's a special day?

As a Southern California girl, I made a few trips to the Bay Area with friends to see groups perform. Unfortunately, I never saw Janis. I'm sure it would have been unforgettable. She did have a sad life and film of her does reveal a seeming insecurity. Her biographers say she was mercilessly teased in her home town of Port Arthur. Three biggies died the same year, Janis, Hendrix & Jim Morrison. R&R lost alot in 1970.California Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12582691517303132274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-188724087075739853.post-17326534898124565752010-02-09T16:42:57.593-05:002010-02-09T16:42:57.593-05:00@Mouse: You're getting old?

When people made cracks about her looks, I'd always defend her.<br /><br />As for my Janis/Hendrix comment, I think it was on the Theme Thursday with "Summer" as the theme. Someone had put up a YouTube vid of Big Brother and the Holding Company's "Summertime," and I responded to that incredible version of one of my favorite songs (by several different artists) with a statement I thought was rather eloquent.The Silver Foxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00730805376957629641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-188724087075739853.post-82410933978823447602010-02-09T16:37:29.497-05:002010-02-09T16:37:29.497-05:00i loved janis from the second i heard her - a woma...i loved janis from the second i heard her - a woman in rock, rocked my teenage world - she was still alive. her death was a blow on so many levels<br /><br />i can't believe it will be 40 years, shit i'm getting old.<br /><br />a couple years ago a touring musical called 'love janis' came through cleveland - it was based on letters that she wrote home ....and included many of her songs. was GREAT. the woman who played janis, though no janis did a pretty convincing channeling of her. if you ever see it coming...go.<br /><br />oh, you were a cutie!!mouse (aka kimy)https://www.blogger.com/profile/09385557065971602436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-188724087075739853.post-6999247169547268162010-02-09T16:22:20.878-05:002010-02-09T16:22:20.878-05:00No, you didn't leave that comment on my blog, ...No, you didn't leave that comment on my blog, but I totally agree with the sentiment.
