Thank you Rogers. Thank you very much. Everyone, I did receive very sincere letters from Brad and Rogers both. Which was great. They handled it as best they could given the circumstance. My only sore feelings focused on the lack of explanation to everyone else. The "non compos..." announcment was about as vague as it gets. I felt I put in too much time to not even be mentioned. I went and told everyone I knew it was a go and we were to, at very least, do the New Years gig. I was proud. To not even be mentioned in the announcement was hurtful. ... I was warned by more than a few people to cover my ass. Which I viciously attacked. So you see, my embarasment isn't solely based on what the fans out there think. It's my peers who have been kind enough to Not say , "I told ya so" I still have people coming up asking how the show went. That's the icing the cake. But guys, I'm not harboring any resentment here. I know all to well how stupid band politics can get. I hope we can and am sure we will make some serious music in the future. I never did share how hurt I was over Unified Theory when all that was happening. I never did find out what really happened, never did find closure... And I suffered greatly for that. All my love to Blind Melon. All my love to every Melonhead, each and every one! It coulda been great;) Now, if you'll excuse me. The French Quarter is singing my song!!! (... and everyone lived happily ever after!) The End. -chris shinn My stomach has officially sunk into my feet. I love Blind Melon. I love Chris Shinn. I love Unified Theory. I really like Travis Warren's music and I love where Blind Melon went with him. I'd love to think everybody could hug, kiss, make up and forget everything. But I'm a realist. However, I'm gonna slam another high life light and hope for best! I'll give my best case scenario. Why? To cheer my own damn self up and hopefully someone else along the way, that's why. Blind Melon go on with Travis. They keep spitting out great new music and touring. On the side, Unified Theory reunites and slams out some new tunes. On the side-side, Rogers and Glen form a power trio with Chris Shinn(on vocals and bass) called "Wendy's Triple Stack" and make the most bomb ass funk/soul/groove album to ever grace this planet! AAAAAAAH dreams...... #smilieradio# 2 well said posts in a row...keep it coming!

I wonder if there where any recordings while Shinn was practicing with melon? I would love to hear Shinn nailing some melon tunes!

Wow! Chris Shinn is posting on this board, too?! Rogers, Glen,and now you, Chris Shinn. I am truly in the presence of greatness. Just need to get Brad Smith, Christopher and TTW on board now. I, too, am sorry things didn't work out for you guys. I feel for all of you and this whole mess. Maybe just the timing was all wrong and there are future possibilities. Hoping so, anyway. Rogers, I commend you for stepping up like that. I bow down in your honor. The music isn't the only reason I love this band. You guys are just decent people.
Coming to post in a forum and seeing that ROGERS STEVENS, GLEN GRAHAM, and CHRIS SHINN actually participate in said forum, is a testament to that. You care about us; regular Joe sitting at home lovin' what you do. Keeping us informed and updated. Thanks for being decent people, and Chris, I hope you keep dropping by whenever you can.

Search through the Blind Melon is a Band section (this section)... I think Brad posted in his grab-ass thread... and Travis in the "Travis Warren Appreciation" thread...

When I heard California Unified Theory for the first time I thought who is this, so did some research and downloaded because you can't find UT anywhere here. He definitely has the voice, awesome talent would have been a great fit vocally but if it didn't mesh it didn't mesh. I will always look for his stuff or get it sent to me from south of the border.
I really thought that when rumors of a comeback were floating around that Chris would be the guy.
Anyways good luck guys, will keep ear to the ground!
