I think people wanted people to hear the story... and by "people" I mean, everyone that took part in the show. Hell, if Nel didn't want anything to do with it, she wouldn't have agreed to be a part of it... much like Glen did. All of these shows may be depressing.. they do tend to focus on "what went wrong"... But, not just for entertainment (as in buyrates)...but education. Oh, I have no idea whether Nel wanted any part of it or not. The one time I did ask her about it, her reaction surprised me because she didn't seem sure to what I was referring. I am CERTAIN she wouldn't EVER participate in something she thought would portray her son the way that show did (a desperate drug addict, in my opinion). So even though she apparently knowingly participated, I think if she were to see that now it'd make her sick. I would, if it was my son. My impression is that she's not seen the finished product. That's 100% speculation on my part and I cannot testify to the way she feels about anything. I truly admire Glen's decision to not take part in that show. THANKS GLEN!!!! And actually it was educational, I learned that VH-1 Blind Melon Behind the Music sucks. #geeky#

Glen didn't participate in it because he didn't want to talk about Shannon or the band... He just isn't into "Tabloid Journalism"..
But yea... Nel did participate in the project. Whether or not she's seen the show is beyond me and nothing I'll ever ask her. However, I do believe what happened to Shannon has made some people change their life styles, for the better. As they said... and as Shannon wrote.. He knew that he had to change, or it will result in "an early grave"... which it did.. and that makes me sad as hell. Yes, mock me or not, I do believe there is some education in that show... I do believe there is a message... just as there is one in "Change"....which is what the ending focussed on.

What happened to Shannon ABSOLUTELY has helped a ton of people change their lifestyles. Everyone knows the bottom line of what happened. I think the show just did this #dead_horse# about his drug use. We know he died. I just hate the show Matt. That's my feeling. I agree with Glen -- that's exactly what it is, is tabloid journalism and it's like reading the Enquirer. They'll show things in whatever light will sell. I hate it. I'm not mocking you in a hostile way Matt. I'm trying to make light of the fact that truly, to me, that's truly what I learned. I learned that I feel Blind Melon Behind the Music is shit.

VHI Blind Melon Behind the Music Positives: cool home movies, interviews with band members, interviews with family, lessons taught. Negatives: It was biased, done in absolute springer style, it didn't even talk much about Blind Melon's music or any good stuff, it just focused on Shannon's drug usage....I think it made him out to be alot worse of a user than he was. I can't watch it without being depressed for a week afterwards. I say, watch Letters From a Porcupine.

Well mummy i was going to comeback with something, such as "just because i think you're a dickhead doesn't mean you have a dick" but then i thought why give him the satisfaction of an argument? He's just got breast envy. Most men never recover from it.
