Brandy, if your biggest or maybe even the only worry is that people who will hear the new Blind Melon for the first time will never find out who Shannon was I really think you shouldn't worry about it. I'm SURE people WILL find out about him. I think it's even better for his legacy, if Blind Melon become big a lot of people might hear about them for the first time. And if they'll love the band, they'll definitely, at one moment or another, find out about their past! Rogers and Glen also said that they'll be honoring Shannon on every show so (unless if they meant by this just playing the songs he was a part of) I imagine they'll mention him on every show. I hope they will, I think that would be great.

Hey G, i was thinking since there are a couple new polls up They should be placed on the main page under the "Sub board" so those who are n't familar with where things are could see it first thing, or for the new folk. I believe these two Posts are very important too! As well as the Demand it. Are you able to put that on the main page somewhere? I dunno, perhaps that'd be too bulky.
So w/ there being a poll for "Blind Melon" and "Nico" is it a given that they're play'n all or most of "Soup" given the tour was cut short for that album? YEAH!!

I was thinking the same thing as tripticket...I think these polls/threads need high visibility so we get the most feedback.

Yeah ok it's exciting that Blind Melon is making a comeback but ya know ...... I mean we will all be promoting a band we love.....ugh I can't seem to find the right words and I don't want to be a buzz kill but I really love Shannon and part of me feels unfaithful to the original Blind Melon I mean kids today have no idea who they were (some do)and now they will only know Travis as the singer....I don't know nevermind I'm going away to work this out~lol I publicly exhalt you Brandy for sharing this feeling, well, cuz . . . it's the same as mine. Exactly. It's not the original Blind Melon I feel unfaithful to - it's Shannon. I just want this new thing to be a DIFFERENT thing because it's NOT the same thing. Some people can understand my feelings about Shannon and his family - some can't. It's fine, you have that right and I have mine. Either way we should co-exist respectfully in spite of it because if we weren't supportive of this NEW BAND, well, none of us would be here. We need to co-exist peacefully - and even share the Love - but it doesn't change my feeling.

Know I know why your name is "LADY HOON", you voice your opinion like a true Lady! #rose# True dat ^^^ Comparisons & Juxtapositions between the old & the new are unavoidable. And there's much to be said for differing viewpoints. I am totally excited about this new chapter of the band, but I cannot refute other people's opinions if they differ from mine. Lady H*O*O*N, I totally respect your opinion and it is well spoken.

I'm right here with you mummy.
But i've forgotten what i wanted to say. I'm having a kerfuffle.
Anyhoons whatever it is i wanted to say, either you and/or brandy already said it, and also...i have probably said it during a million billion drunken rants.
What a kerfuffle mummy.

Ha i didn't get to read all the post here but i just want to put my opinion.Rain Fur Rent was a awsome bands as blind melon was and they both still are in spirit.But now we get the best of both worlds from two broken bands joining.Plus the fact that Travis sounds alot like Shannon which is good to alot and bad to alot cause they want Shannon but i like Travis too(not as much as shannon nor ever will be)but ah ya.So ya make a thread or w/e about Travis why not.I dunno if there is already one haha.I am listening to Rain Fur Rent rite now woot!
