All of you that met her were SO lucky! Several years ago she was scheduled to do a show at the Hard Rock Cafe in Lahaina. I was beyond excited (and had my entire outfit picked out...all Joan, of course), but unfortunately the show never happened.

Cherish your memories!

I heard an interview with her on NPR. The question was did she have stage fright or nerves before going on stage. Her answer was (not the exact words) - No, not stage fright, but nervous that she wouldn't give the audience a good time. They had paid for the tickets, found a baby sitter, spent time driving or getting to the location, probably bought a supper and she felt if they had spent the time and money to be in her audience, they deserved to have a good time and she did everything she could to see that they did.

I thought that was such a kind thing to say - thinking about the effort people went to to come to her shows.
