you doing tonight'?
Where are we going?
She was a lot of trouble.
We went to Louisiana, and
we didn't want started
because the Cajuns
were known, good fighters.
But she got a kick out of it,
just playing the bad girl.
She wasn't a bad girl.
I mean, she just
liked to bait the men.
You know, we would deny
all knowledge of her
and barely escape
with our lives.
That made her real
dangerous to take to a bar.
I mean, she was amusing, so we
took her to the beach with us.
She borrowed some records
which were obscure.
One of them was a
record by Odetta.
All of a sudden, she busted into
on the record, and
everybody was just
stunned... this little,
troublesome kid, you know,
could sing that well.
This particular
night Janis said,
let's go see this
wonderful Austin
So we pulled in at
five thirty in the morning,
and you could hear music.
And it wasn't recorded music.
It was live music.
arm, and she said,
Jack, I am going
to like it here.
On accident, I discovered
I had an incredibly loud voice.
because that was always
what I liked, and, you know,
I got in a bluegrass band,
Austin, Texas for free beer.
I used to sing at folk
clubs just for a goof.
We call ourselves
and instantly Janis
became one of the boys.
People just stared
open mouthed, and she
was not ever accepted, really,
except by the folk community.
Growing up, her peers picked
on her and bullied her.
And by the time
she got to Austin,
and by the time I knew
her, she had already been
profoundly hurt over and over.
And so in Austin,
it was the same way.
Every year, the
fraternities held a contest,
someone to be ugliest man.
And someone nominated Janis, and
all these jerks voted for her.
And it crushed her,
saddest thing I ever saw.
You know, it really was.
To that point, I'd
never seen Janis cry.
Janis had a very tough
exterior, but it really got her.
It got her bad.
And I said, Janis, they
don't mean anything to you.
They're... they're not
even in your class.
It became increasingly
harder to fit
into a group of angry, angry
men who liked to pick on her.
Even though she ran around with
were into books and
ideas, she needed
to go out to where
the people were
where the people were
that sung those songs.
Where does she go?
What does she do?
San Francisco.
It would have to be about
'63 or something like that.
