I was against it until I heard Travis, the guy is perfect! I didn't think anyone could ever fit into Blind Melon as a front man like Shannon did, but I was wrong.

Calm down. Everybody changes their mind in their lives. I originally thought that them coming back with a new guy wasn't a good idea either. Then I heard the songs. Even Rogers said, years ago, that he didn't forsee a new singer, and he's in the band! We're only human, we change our minds. It's what seperates us from animals. That and a working thumb.

I think that we all had accepted the fact that they weren't going to reform again as Blind Melon.Nico completed the package of songs that we lived our lives with.I know I felt a little protective over that & Shannon.That's why we are so blown away that they are actually going to pull it off,with Travis.If they had put out some lame music with an unremarkable singer,we'd all be voicing our disgust instead of our elation.Things have changed in a positive,supportive kind of way.Things change for the better sometimes & people change their minds.We're moving forward,we're not chained to the past,we've grown.Rock On Melons!

Don't sweat it waltermelon, everyone goes back on what they say sometimes, especially in situations like these where a huge new talent like Travis comes in. It's all good dude just be happy that you were right!

Wow, I haven't posted on here in ages. I just found out about to new singer, like 5 min. ago, and I'm still processing it. It's still to early for me to truly assess my feelings about it. However, whether I choose to listen to the new material or not, I still support their decison to carry on if they wish. I mean, enough time has passed. I have to admit, it's still a little weird for me right now, though.

I went back and looked at what I said. Basically what I said was that it was the band's decision if they ever continued and anything we thought about it was speculation. I stand by my statement.

wow...and to think of how badly a few of us were crucified for making the same exact argument last week. I'm actually in shock that all of these same people posted that they would be against it not so long ago. "We're trying to create a positive atmosphere on this board"...yeah "positive" when people aren't giving a different opinion than you.

my thoughts exactly how can you say these things then totally crucify others for saying them. I mean it's my opinion and I'll stand by it. I never once direspected your opinions and thats fine that you chagned your mind. I just can't belive you can be so hypocritical and bash me for having the same opinion you once had yourselves. And oh ya and stickstr8thruyou brings up a great point, wouldn't a positive atmosphere include respecting everyones opinion. Like he said its only positive when people aren't giving a different opinion than you. All i have to say is "HYPOCRITES"
