1. if chris shinn fronts the band will it be chris joining BM or rogers and glen joining unified theory ? 2. some women have testosterone, just look at linda perry 3. how about brad fronting the band? also guns n' roses aint really guns n' roses without izzy ! 1-It will be Chris joining Blind Melon and it will exceed all of your wildest expectations. The argument that they will sound like Unified Theory is week and pretty tired. I'm juicing from every pore wondering a)how awesome the existing songs are gonna sound with Chris singing and b)how amazing and creative and groundbreaking the new material is gonna be. 2-Agreed man. Can't argue with ya there. Barracuda from Heart is another great example of that; Joan Jett, Janis, Fiona Apple, Rod Stewert(haha) and many others really bring it when it comes to power and emotion. Not every woman is only meant to sing lullabies. Unfortunately, Jenna is just not one of those powerhouse female vocalists, and thus really doesn't make sense to front Blind Melon, in my opinion anyway. 3-I think they tried that years ago and determined it was something he and the rest of the band weren't satisfied with. No comment on GNR. lol.

i only mentioned linda perry as an example of a women with a powerful voice but i think shed be a brilliant choice for BM. i know shes a millionare songwriter for artists like christina aguilera and pink these days but 4 non blondes were similar to blind melon. so linda perry gets my vote. anyone else a fan uk.youtube.com/watch?v=ed5_zuLZ36w&feature=channel

My heart is set on Chris Shinn, but I do agree, Linda Perry would be and interesting matchup with Blind Melon. If she put out a solo c.d. with Blind Melon as her backing band I'd buy it in a second.

Sorry you feel that way cessna! But, picture Shinn putting out a new album with the guys. Also, picture Rogers and Glen playing a couple of UT songs live, if they choose too...
Shinn singing Melon tunes, UT tunes, or new tunes (with the guys) pumps me up! The guy kicks ass! And, he really wants this gig!

At least you're honest about how you feel about it. Personally speaking, I'll take anything if it means writing a new record. Chris Shinn is Chris Shinn...the sound of Blind Melon would evolve without a doubt. Here are some facts... 1. The name Blind Melon helped sellout just about every show they've done over the last 2 years. It gives them a headstart. 2. If (when) Chris Shinn joins the band, they will be doing some Unified Theory songs live. These guys need Chris Shinn. Chris Shinn needs these guys.

I just want good things to happen. The sort of things that have allowed us to see the band tour again, and provided us with an amazing new album. Whatever it takes to have that process continue is the most important thing, I feel. That's the reason why we're all here on this forum isn't it?

I could picture Linda Perry... I use to crank 4 Non Blondes when I was in High School. the two bands are very similar, not many other bands like blind melon. i can picture shannon singing there songs as much as linda perry singing BM songs, i wonder if they ever met.
