Good info Goose. Look at the big brain on Wreckedem.

In the year 1994 – Grace Slick is arrested for pointing a shotgun at police at her Tiburon, Calif., home. The former Jefferson Starship lead singer later says she has been under stress.  I would think pointing a gun at a cop is a stress maker not reliever.

Going in a little different direction away from rock. This woman was most talented and left way too soon. Patsy Cline at the age of 30 along with 3 others died in a plane crash March 5th 1963.
