Janis Joplin, who begins and ends the evening, will be seen performing such classics as Down on Me, Piece of My Heart, Ball and Chain, Coming Home, Get It While You Can, Move Over, Try Me and more. In addition, the evening will include Linda Ronstadt's You're No Good, Grace Slick singing Somebody to Love, Aretha Franklin with Respect, Heart with Barricuda, and Tina Turner with Honky Tonk Woman as examples of a similar powerhouse style.
