AUSTIN, Texas – A live-music venue in Texas where college student Janis Joplin launched her singing career will not be reopening after the coronavirus pandemic lifts. The converted gas station is where Joplin, then a student at the University of Texas, performed in the 1960s. On Monday, Wilson made the closure of his venue permanent but did not provide further details. Before reopening Threadgill’s, Wilson had founded another iconic Austin music venue — the Armadillo World Headquarters — in 1973. The south Austin venue where Texas progressive country music embodied by Willie Nelson was nurtured closed after a New Year’s Eve 1980 party and was torn down to make way for an office building.
