I was curious, I wanted details, perhaps you might want to share the story. Ive seen them on DVD's but I cant ever imagine actually being there!

I've never seen them live and it saddens me everyday. But a guy in my ceramics class saw them at Woodstock. One day in class, I was making a scultpure of Shannon, of him at Woodstock (the dress, hair style, barretts...) and the guy was like "that's Shannon Hoon at Woodstock!!" and I just about peed my pants.

not me.... It was in '94...I was pretty new to everything in this country knowing that I was only here for a year. My mom didn't let me...my friend went...that doesn't NOT count tho! (it was in NYC...10 freaking minutes from my house...) Can I hurt my mom... ...c'mon...just a little bit... :lightsaber: (why do I have to come from such a old fashion italian family:scream:, aaaanyways...things changed tho..but still....)

Unfortunately I never saw Blind Melon live. During my freshman year (1995) at CSU (Fort Collins, CO), I noticed that Blind Melon was playing over in Boulder which is only an hour away. I decided that I was a poor college kid that didn't have the money to see the show, and I just figured, "Well, I'll catch them next time they come around." It wasn't more than two weeks later that I heard about Shannon's passing. I'm still kicking myself in the arse for that one. . . . .
Here's one more icon that I wish I would have gone to see: Johnny Cash
I can't make these mistakes again. I try to go see all of the performers that I like regardless of my circumstances.
