This announcement really pleases me. One of my favorite singer/ songwriters, the one and only JANIS IAN, will be visiting Santa Fe later this month, and performing two shows at the Jean Cocteau

That's awesome George! I'm sure this must be a personal 'win' for you.
And there's a vinyl revival happening now - alot of the younger folk are into the vinyl / album / LP format. It may a bit trickier harder to find but I think you would love Springsteen's "The Promise" on vinyl.
Bringing back vinyl can net an entrepreneur some ducats. Most of the vinyl pressings are done overseas and, from what I understand, keeping up with demand has become an issue. Someone could get into the pressing game for under seven figures. The equipment costs a quarter million and would fit neatly in a moderate structure. A bowling alley, for example.
Congratulations on your booking coup--I had no idea she was a fan! AFAIK, she's never been to the con I attend every year (Arisia, in Boston), or at least I hope I've never missed the opportunity to thank her for helping make my teenage years bearable. (I was a freshman in high school when Between the Lines came out, and "At Seventeen" definitely felt as if it were written for "ugly duckling girls like me." Hmmm...I don't have a turntable any more, so perhaps I should go looking for a copy on CD...) If I were in Santa Fe, I'd bring a basket of home-baked goodies to the show, but as I'm not, I'll just have to mentally send her good wishes and thanks.
