    I crushed so hard on Jan when I was a teen. Had many posters of Vixen adorning my walls too (yes kiddies we did that back in the 80s and early 90s). Jan was a hell of a guitarist and soooooo criminally underrated. During the reunion that VH1 did, Jan really felt betrayed that her sisters might want another guitarist in the band (Jan thought she was being replaced). Whatever happened Vixen's legacy is due to Jan. RIP

    SO......many GREAT bands in the 80's. Vixen was 1 of them. It seemed like a great live band was in the Cincinnati area every weekend playing. That's what we did back then....had fun and went to live shows. VERY affordable to do that in the day.

    Even though this is totally off the topic of Jan, my band hung with the girls at the Vic theatre in Chicago back in 1989. Great time and Jan was a complete professional. Even though I have been in the presence of some high profile musicians, I was actually taken back by Share (Ross)Pedersen. Man, I could barely speak in her presence. Something about her made me crazy. Never could figure it out.

    My brother went on date with lead singer guitarist from vixen.(Random, they ended up partying somehow) Vixen played in Fresno back 1985, 86? Nobody knew vixen. My brother could tell she wasn't from fresrag'. She talked about her band vixen. He didn't think much about until seeing Her video on MTV. Band vixen.. Figures because we in Whitelace at that time. NO bands in fresrag looked like Whitelace back then. I don't think he went to the show. (ole town saloon, spaghetti factory) bands playing that night. He said went out some.chix from LA, nice car. I just now realize this happend years before vixens video came out on MTV. .Because by the time vixens video came out 87. The hype she told my brother was gone..No longer success. Management waited to long. We talked about her I remember . Messed up because he thought she was someone good
