The Rose - a photo on Flickriver

The Rose

            Woke up to rain this morning, so I headed out for a quick peek at my neighbor’s rose garden. There it was, my rose, dappled in raindrops; a beautiful work of mother nature and my neighbors green thumb.

A bit of Rock and Roll history:

The Rose is a 1979 American drama film which tells the story of a self-destructive 1960s rock star who struggles to cope with the constant pressures of her career and the demands of her ruthless business manager. The film stars Bette Midler.

The story is loosely based on the life of singer Janis Joplin. Originally titled Pearl, after Joplin's nickname which was also the title of her last album, the film was fictionalized after her family declined to allow the producers the rights to her story.
 
I was fortunate enough to see Janis Joplin perform in a very small venue, and can say Janis was amazing to view up close… when the smoke from the plentiful reefers parted momentarily : )
