Hey there,
We've read a bunch of the posts on here and everybody appreciates the support. It has been very helpful to us over the last few days. It means more than you know.....
It's time for us to move forward now. Any more time spent with anger and insult is wasted time. One of the things that the last two years has taught us all over again is that we love playing music together. The eleven previous years were spent healing and dealing, and we came back with an even stronger bond. Our dream, what this is really all about for us, is to have the chance to make something great. A great album. A great show. As we said before, we will endure just about anything for that.
So we're going to try to press forward immediately, and we want to find a singer to go with us. In our minds, Travis set the bar pretty high. And Shannon?....well that goes without saying. We're looking for somebody from outer space that has their feet on the ground. We're looking for somebody who has a voice that inspires new songs and sheds new light on our old songs. We're not looking for clones, drones, jokers, clowns, or drama queens. If you are interested or know somebody else who is, send an mp3 or video/audio link to blindmelonsinger@gmail.com. We'll check it out and get back to you if we think you might be a good fit for the band. Thank ya!

I hate when anyone goes through difficult times, but I know this band will go on..and trust me, if I could sing better than, um, the hard level on rock band, I would be sending an mp3, but alas...good luck to everyone that has "it", and thanks to Rogers for keeping us updated

There is a guy named Brent Starkey from Canada that used to play in Speakermind. They played the vigil a few times. Nel has mentioned him several times to me because she said when she heard him sing Shannon's songs, she had to leave the room and went outside and bawled because he was so much like Shannon in his sound and his movements......I wish I could have seen this guy but he hasn't been back to the vigil since then. I believe this was in 2004......was anyone else there a this time and what did you think?

It's times like these that I wish I had some talent in the vocal department. You don't know how much I would love to leave school and go on tour. Thanks for all the updates, guys. I'm excited for the future now.

Wasn't he the guy that did the "Thank You Nel Hoon" song?
He sounds good. The band isn't looking for a clone... But, you never know.

8-)Am I crazy, or shouldn't they feel like they have already accomplished their dream?
