alt Hacker NewsI knew her in Ann Arbor. By then she had stopped performing but I heard her play a couple of times at my uncle's house. I now wish I'd paid closer attention, I was just a stupid teenager at the time.

Fascinating! Did her music feel different from other musicians at the time? Listening to some of her songs now, it's hard not to feel like she was way ahead of her time. Though that could just be hindsight talking.

What year was this?
That's an amazing experience even if you couldn't recognize it at the time. That's legitimately cool, and you can say you were in the room with genuine once in a lifetime talent. Not everybody has that experience.
I saw Dave Matthews play a very small show (like 30 people were there maybe) when I was younger while we waited for change to make a phone call. I didn't really pay attention, but remember thinking that this guy was really weird and really different and really really good. I wish I had stayed for the entire thing and maybe talked to him. But, at least the memory is there.
