I don't know if this has alreay been posted, and if it has, please disregard this! But, I was fishing around Ebay and saw this:
"Up for bids is an original and very, very real Blind Melon demo tape, the "Sippin' Time Sessions". This tape has been in the possession of a former music industry executive who was handed the tape by a member of the band when they were looking for a record deal, and luckily for you they held on to it, took good care of it, and are finally willing to part with it. The tape has five songs, "Dear Old Dad", "Soul One", "Tones of Home", "Seed to a Tree" and "Mother". The tape is in very good condition and plays fine; if enough people request to hear a sample I will post one. I don't know what else to say, I really don't think I need to hype this one. Shannon Hoon? Guns & Roses? If you're reading this far you understand how rare this is, 'nuff said. Shipping & Handling inside the US is $3 for US First Class mail, but depending on what this ends up going for I strongly suggest adding some kind of extra service like Signature Confirmation, Insurance, Priority Mail, etc... I will not be responsible for "lost" items if winner does not want item tracked or insured. International S&H to be determined by region and service, international bidders please contact me first with any shipping questions. Preferred payment is through Paypal. Please contact me with any questions, check my feedback and bid with confidence. This is the real deal, folks, and possibly your only chance to own a Blind Melon item of such scarcity. "
Does anyone know if this is the real deal? It would be cool to see it go to a forum member.
