The musical play is at the Alley Theatre here this
weekend, part of a Janis Joplin birthday celebration.
We are considering getting tickets to see it. Does
anyone know whether it is worth it? I know it is based
on Laura Joplin's book from Janis' letters home.

Other celebrations of Janis' 65th birthday include:

In Port Arthur
-Birthday Bash - Dedication of a historical state
marker in front of her childhood home, at the Gulf
Coast Music Hall of Fame (with show).
www.museumofthegulfcoast.org
-Joplin area of the Museum of the Gulf Coast with her
artwork, music and replica of painted Porche.
-Janis Joplin road trip. Two hours, guided tour
birthplace, dad's workplace, first home, childhood
home, baptismal church, grade school, junior high
school, high school (Memorial High School), junior
college, coffeehouse, radio station she visited and
pleasure island (a place that maybe someone on this
list could better describe)
-Second Annual JJ Birthday Party (concert by Myrna
Sanders and the Kozmic Pearl) at Dan Electro's Guitar
Bar (in Houston) www.myspace.com/kosmicpearl

Really something isn't it -
Connie
