The VAULT
I have spent the better part of the last year somewhere in the desert sifting through and archiving what we refer to as…The Janis Joplin Vault. Dun Dun Dun.
It’s filled with concert posters, magazines, tickets to shows, clothing, books, artist buttons and on and on and on. I’m back at the vault this week for [...]

NO! SOUL!
Janis was on the Dick Cavett show quite a few times, this is one of my favorite videos from those appearances. There are a lot of performance videos out there and there are a lot of interviews, but not much unique material. This is Janis, with the improvisational group The Committee performing a piece called [...]
Craft That!
You may be familiar with Etsy.com where people list their art as well as handmade and vintage crafts for purchase. Due to human nature these items range from fabulous to unfortunate. The latter of which find their way to Regretsy.com.
Etsy is another place where people have allowed their Janis Joplin creativity out of the box [...]

Chicks With Bigger Balls Than You
Janis was as fiercely strong a woman as her voice was powerful. This is a place where that quality is celebrated. I think it’s also a proper forum to celebrate other Chicks with Bigger Balls Than You.
Let me introduce you to Tanya Tagaq Gillis, a contemporary Inuit throat singer. She creates fire, sex, pleasure, longing, [...]
Happy Birthday Janis!
Today she would have been a ripe 67. Born on January 19th, 1943, she is a Capricorn. As am I. Which means we are cooler than you. Did I mention we are also partial to egotism?
I’m about to get all astrological on your ass. I own a book called The Secret Language of Birthdays. It [...]

Let’s talk about INK
Of all the irresponsible, bad decisions I’ve ever made, getting a tattoo is probably the best. I admit my friend had to physically push me into the chair when I tried to escape and there are times I think…maybe I’ll regret that…but for the most part it makes me feel just a little bit more [...]

Holidayzzz….
Well it’s been an eventful holiday season and I thought I should share some of the awesomely amazing things that I have been up to. First I took a fabulous series of holiday photos. They were done by only the best…a Target photographer at their chick, Denver Target studio. Only the finest things here on [...]

Peace Jam’s FUCKING Awesome Peace Fueling Acoustics…
A good friend of mine works for PeaceJam, an international education program that brings the knowledge of Nobel Peace Laureates to youth around the world. I pretty much piss excellence, joy and beauty when I am around them.
“Piss” is not a word they employ with any regularity at PeaceJam. However, I do.
A couple of years [...]

MUSICAL F-ING GRAPHS!!
So I woke up at 4am today…and while hating my insomnia I stumbled upon this gem, which obviously greatly changed the trajectory of my day, possibly the entire week/month/year. I’ll let you know when I stop talking about it or when it stops being awesome. That time is probably never. I do not lie when [...]
