Vixen’s Janet Gardner had a conversation with The Rock Experience With Mike Brunn, where she was asked how she feels continuing Vixen with only one original member, Roxy Petrucci.
Janet said:
“What’s the alternative? That it doesn’t exist anymore? It is what it is. Obviously, (founding guitarist) Jan (Kuehnemund) will never be a part of it anymore, and I left, and then Share (Ross) left. And the alternative is for it not to exist anymore. So, no, it doesn’t bother me. Roxy, she loves playing. So, God bless her. Have fun.”
“There’s a lot of bands out there playing with very few, if any, original members. And it’s really upsetting to people. But nobody is holding a gun to your head. You don’t wanna go see it? Don’t go see it.
“I got some messages from some people, ‘You need to stop them. They’re ruining the Vixen legacy. Why are you letting them do this?’ It’s, like, well… I don’t understand. I don’t understand why people are so upset. Don’t go see it if you don’t want to.”
