Also, as a Blind Melon fanatic, and a SUPER Shannon fanatic, I'd be very excited to know that there is actually MORE out there and that I would get a chance to hear it sometime. I'd wait 10 more years, happy and excited, that I'll be able to hear more stuff... That's just the kind of fan I am. Well, if it matters, I personally am glad you told us! Like you, I am a huge Blind Melon fan but a REALLY HUGE Shannon fan - so now I have something special I can look forward to! ANTICIPATION is one of life's greatest gifts...it gets us through so much...

i'm simply saying it's bullshit to say that they are dying to share it with everyone when in fact they can listen to it whenever they want... Don't judge others according to how you are. if they were dying to share it they would share it! it's that simple... Reading this, I sure wouldn't trust you a secret or anything. We are dying to share it but we keep promises. It really is simple.

Wow, is all I can say at this point. When did being a melonhead turn into accusations and hatefulness? Would any of you who have been saying all of the things to Matt and the other Mods EVER say any of this to Nel? I doubt it and if you would, you are NOT a melon. Regardless of who asked who to not circulate the songs, the fact is they can not be shared at this time. As Matt said, ask Nel, she will tell you the same thing. So, think about that next time you (the collective you) feel it is your "right" to have these songs. Try thinking about if you would ever say any of the hurtful and rude things to Nel that you have said to the mods. Are you going to tell her that it is bullshit and that she sucks because she won't burn you a copy? Instead of demanding and acting as if the mods stole something from you, try to look at it that at least you know there is more, it is not the last new thing you will hear from Shannon. You catch more flies with honey then vinegar. Also, everyone will have it as soon as they are able. It isn't like you will never hear it or get it. Everyone just needs to chill out and relax. We waited 12 years for new music, we can wait a bit longer for more "new" music. Thinking negatively will not get the cd out faster, it will only creat inner turmoil. Bee happy with what we have and be excited that there is more on the horizon! Just my thoughts. "Can't we all just get along!!! ?"

Someone said something about the Mammoth Sessions. I can't wait to see that either. I believe we will all see that sometime. Fingers are crossed! Nel told me when I was over there the other day that she had the Mammoth Sessions, although she dont know where it is, ITS OUT THERE! I would die to see that!

It has become more negative on this forum lately. Instead of attacking eachother we should all work together to get through this difficult time...

Look alot of people have stuff like versions of "all that I need" mine sucks and gets clipped off for a second at "blow my face upon the ceiling" and whatnot. as far as all the stuff we havent heard respect the admin's I dont want to hear it anyway until it has been produced properly. package it and give me loads of goodies with it. I can wait. I have patience. as great as NICO is maybe the guys will go in and add to the songs, bottom line let them decide.

mods.. the feelings of some do not reflect the feelings of all. i love the stuff that was on the radio show and still listen to it constantly (but frankly matt, im sick of hearing you say BLIND MELON FORUM in the middle...i say that line when im singing along ) on a side note, im sad to see stuff turning negative...i remember the other BM forum from maybe 8 or so years ago turning this way and finally being shut down. hoping we can avoid that.

I'd wait 10 more years, happy and excited, that I'll be able to hear more stuff... That's just the kind of fan I am. That's How I feel too. I mean I was ecstatic when you gave me changed, because I could find it anywhere, and that was just another version of a common song. I was given a song from a user on youtube, that was left untitled, but now, knowing that there are some songs out there that should not be circulated, I'm a bit confused at to what I have. But as Matt said so well, just wait it out people. Enjoy the Melon and Shannon you have now and know that there is more waiting for you. Who would've thought there we'd get new songs from Shannon 13 years after we lost him? I never would've expected that! That being said, shouldn't we be willing to wait and space out the release of these tracks, and continue to get "new" songs from Shannon as long as we can? Let's keep it fresh. And not only that, but as we all know Shannon's songs were never what they seemed. I think it's also a sort of sign of respect for Shannon to receive the songs as their given to us. If they're given to us one at a time, I say great! That gives me more time to enjoy and soak them all in, one by one.
