SAN GERONIMO, California (Reuters) -- Sam Andrew will soon embark on what
mildly might be called a challenging task: to replace his rock band's long-dead
singer -- Janis Joplin.
This time around, his band's recruitment may not involve seduction,
wild sex, drinking and drugs as, according to legend, happened with Joplin's
induction and adventures with Big Brother and the Holding Company.
Rather, if the aging San Francisco-area rockers have their way, the
21st-century auditions to replace a 1960s icon will become a television
reality show called "Search for the Pearl," a reference to Joplin's
nickname.
Who's going to watch this? Anyone under 40 probably isn't going to care at all and the rest of us will be too embarrassed to look.
