Happy Linda Ronstadt Day, Venthooligans!

A group of local fans, spearheaded by San Francisco Nature Education Executive Director Nancy DeStefanis, petitioned the city’s Board of Supervisors to recognize Ronstadt for her philanthropy, artistry and her decision to call San Francisco home for the past three decades.
DeStefanis, a longtime admirer of Ronstadt’s music, recounted being particularly moved when the singer appeared at the 2019 Kennedy Center Honors and confronted former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo. Quoting one of Ronstadt’s popular song titles, Pompeo asked, “When will I be loved?” to which, DeStefanis recalled, “she immediately stood up and said, ‘When you stop enabling Donald Trump.’ ”
“What courage and guts she had,” DeStefanis said. “She was already losing her voice but still spoke up."
haha San Francisco values
Linda Ronstadt is my favorite singer of... ever. I've loved her since I was a kid with a transistor radio glued to my ear. For a girl to sing these words! Years later I heard Mike Nesmith sing it in his twangy cowboy style, and it was good, but Ronstadt owns this song. (And many more.)
