Took my daughter to see Janis Ian about 8 to 10 years ago. She was doing a free concert at a Whole foods market in San Diego. Why at a Market I have no idea. She was promoting a new album at the time. I got the impression that she was trying to get her career going again and maybe that's all she could get...Not sure.
I used to listen to her a lot in the 70s. The Whole Foods market concert she gave was great! She seems to be a very warm and gracious person.
After the concert or show, she had her new CD for sale and was signing copies of them. I got mine signed (of course). One thing that struck me was how short she is. She had these big heeled shoes on, kind of like what John Travolta was wearing in "Saturday Night Fever" and she was still short! Don't get me wrong, I'm not anti-short. I myself am only 5'5" so for me to notice...well, you get the point.
