I don't know how many times I've seen this clip but it was only just the other day that it dawned on me who the fat gobsmacked chick in the audience wearing the sunnies is at the 3.30 minute mark.

Damn. I'll have another look. Is it someone I would know, being an Aussie an all?

It's not Oprah is it? Just thinking this'd have to be in the late 60's yeah?

No had another look, definitely not O. Can you give us a hint because she certainly looks familiar.

Yes, the one and only it seems.

I've often looked at the clip and was always slightly bemused with this woman in the audience who appears completely in awe of Joplin's performance.

Poor darling, it's just awful to think she was, to choke while eating a ham sandwich.

Ever since I've never eaten lying down. Muma's had quite an impact on my eating habits.

I'm not sure but I think the fat lady's ham sandwich finale is a bit of a furphy, oonks.
