Was Janis Joplin a tripster?

I really love her voice, and listen to her a lot when im under the influence of hardcore psychadelics. recently blotters have been going around with pictures of janis joplin on them i asked a friend and he said "ofcourse janis joplin did acid, who didnt in those days?" then i asked someone else that was into joplin and he said "joplin was just into weed and alcohol"
i know its not that important but if i found out that she was into psychadelics that could account for why i cant stop listening to her voice when im tripping

i know im not saying that the drugs make the music. she was a junkie? well i was wondering what kind of drugs she was into because i think i recall reading something about her being accidentally dosed with acid and being upset about it. which would imply she was not into tripping but just drinking and smoking. i call it going "pigpen" (gratefuldead reference)

Janis was first of all an alcoholic of Southern Comfort and then a junkie.
I have seen her at many concerts when I klived in Haight-Ashbury and on a few ocassions I have seen her fall on her face while performing at the Straight Theater, the Avalon Ballroom, Carousel Ballroom, WInterland, etc.
So much for her gracefullness. Yeah she smoked pot. But Booze and smack were her meat.

im sorry im just used to being flamed on messageboards - but i forgot this was the shroomery 
anyways i just very recently got into janis joplin and did not even know that she died of a heroin overdose. so the shroomery is giving me a better education than im getting at school.

Around this time her drug use began to increase, and she acquired a reputation as a "speed freak" and occasional heroin user. She also used other intoxicants. She was a heavy drinker throughout her career, and her trademark beverage was Southern Comfort.
For more info on her, check:

First of all, who would be happy after finding out you have been dosed without permission? That's just not cool. Southern Comfort was her drink of choice, and, yes, she did like H. way too much. As far as I'm concerned, drugs play an essential role in the lives of the great actors/musicians. And it makes them who they are, and gives them the edge they need to overcome fears and let the artistry shine through. The edge is sometimes too sharp, and they fall. Belushi, Farley, Janis, JERRY-- All have left a smile on this planet. Quite frankly, the artists who have " cleaned up " have lost their edge. Still are practicing thier craft successfully, but just don't have that special something that makes people take notice. Peace

i made a point about this a while ago.. almost all of the great musicians have been addicted to smack... cause when your living on the edge, basically dead.. creative genius seems to flow much more easily

The Weathermen? Which one?
But the new CD that he cleaned up for was Hells Winter. It's my favorite album that he's done. I actually have it in my CD player in my car RIGHT NOW.

By the summer of 1968, Janis and big Brother were pretty fuckled up on stage and a lot of missing nottes, wrong notes and bad vocals emerged frm all of their mouuths. However, when one is on acid and smioking pot at those concerts whcih cost two dollans and a half for 6 hours of music, one did not care that they were out of tune or stoned out of their minds.
It was having a good time.

I loved her albumns, However, the first one was only a total of ten minutes on each side of the album. Thats only a few minutes longer than Hey Jude or the long version of Light My Fire.
I loved "Take another little piece of my heart" best of all of her songs.

The 1979 film "The Rose" was loosely based on Joplin's life. The lead role earned Bette Midler an Academy Award nomination as Best Actress.
Has anyone seen it? Is it any good or worth watching?

Peoples opinions on movies vary greatly. I would say if it is about Janis Joplin well then it is definately worth watching and judging for yourself (which i will surely do)
