Would it be great to have an "official" opening party of Giga Texas that would include a tribute to Janis Joplin as a great music innovator from Texas.
Ref: Janis Joplin - Wikipedia I am not sure which song would be the most appropriate, but I like this one: TO LOVE SOMEBODY by Janis Joplin - YouTube

The passion, the love, the total gift of herself were very inspiring. The Texas Mars and Tesla missions needs this sort of emotions to be shared with the builders and participants of these great projects IMO.

If she had stayed away from Smack and Southern Comfort she could have been the next Billie Holiday.

Austin is a huge music scene and I would assume Tesla could command something more than a tribute band. Not a knock against Janis Joplin, but seem like they could get an actual alive Texas musician if that is what they are going for.

Off the top of my head:
- Willie Nelson (well, maybe not since he is old AF and also owns a biodiesel company)
- Beyonce
- Don Henley
- George Strait
- Polyphonic Spree
- Kelly Clarkson
- ZZ Top (double-check that they are still alive first)

Of course the obvious choice would be the band Tesla, but it would probably be more fitting to have a couple of up-and-coming indie bands from Austin.

Elon is into rave and many of the artists mentioned are staunchly liberal so probably wouldn’t support playing at the gigafactory since GM is leading the way…

Maybe Grimes?

He is also buddies with Ye so even though this is Texas I’d think more modern for sure

Poor Elon. Most liberals think he is too conservative, and most conservatives think he is too liberal. It probably means he has found that sweet spot in the middle ground, and I hate to see him being attacked by both sides.

I don’t wish to turn this into a political thread as I have noticed they tend to get locked but it has nothing to do with both sides & everything to do with the blatant disrespect toward everything Elon by the current admin of our beautiful country. Back on topic though Im kind of curious if Elon will even have a concert planned for Gigatexas?

We are the Tesla Truck state - maybe we’ll have a rodeo instead & a Cybertruck smash up derby?

Omg! The heartache if they took like 5 Cybertrucks and smashed them up in a derby. Lol.
