It turned out that I couldn't make it to the rescheduled show when it was announced, so I got a refund from the venue. A friend of mine who went to the rescheduled show said that her band showed up but she was a no-show, supposedly because of a transportation problem, so the band played a full set for those who wanted to stay and the venue offered refunds for everyone. The venue booked her again for another show after that and once again she cancelled at the last minute, this time due to some type of illness.
I think she quit touring and retired after that, so I never did get to see her.

Sorry you didn't get to see her. I saw her three times, the last time being between 8 to 10 years ago. She always put on a good show. I remember reading about her cancelling some shows due to injury. The main reason she stopped touring was the death of her husband and manager, Wendell Goodman.
