Anyone going to this show tonight? I just rolled into Aspen. I hope I can find a place to sleep that won't bankrupt me.

Well, the show was downright awesome! The crowd would get into it sometimes, but at othertimes, Travis would point the mic to the crowd and get nothing back, so that was kind of lame. There were a few times that he was like, "C'mon Aspen!" Despite the lack of enthusiasm by some of the crowd, it was a really kick-ass show!

Aspen may be a fancy resort town, but they aren't too cool for Blind Melon. I'm glad you and Vince were there to represent! ;D

I hate when the crowd does shit like that. I basically scream and sing throughout the entire show. (Which might explain why I have no voice left after the 2nd show) I just don't understand how you can't be singing every word, especially when the mic is hanging over you.

Travis put the mic in my face at the 9:30 club during Paper Scratcher. It only took him a minute to realize that he had picked the wrong girl. Just because I sing my guts out doesn't mean I can or should. You can totally hear it on the recording. I'm downright awful.

I really enjoyed the show Thurs. I thought that Travis sounded amazing. Does anyone have a setlist for the Belly Up? Thanks

I just don't understand why when the mic is hovering over a bunch of people why they don't sing. It's not like one person in particular can be heard.

I will be going through my MiniDiscs that I recorded from melon shows this past week, and when I get the Aspen setlist, I will post it here. ;D Here are the pictures that I got. I didn't get that many because the staff and security were not very camera-friendly. This time I was farther away, so most of these shots show more of the whole band than my previous photos. . .

Thanks Ryan- yeah just found this place after I got home from travel to aspen, Had a great time. Was listenin to the show off of cotapers and noticed some of the trouble spots that people around here were talking about. To be honest...during Change, I love that first first and wish travis would have sung it instead of the crowd (enjoyed the fact that shannon did that but i never got to hear him sing it except early versions) Also do they even sell kazoos in Aspen? Maybe people were just in awe of Travis's voice..... I know I was, just closing my eyes and dreamin- awesome pics!
