and watching it just made me miss Shannon even more. not saying anything negative about travis or the guys, if fact i'm not saying anything about them at all, but seeing the beginning of the video say "Blind Melon", and then not seeing Shannon, was just really...sad.

Okay, let me say that Sewagefruit is my best friend/roommate & we watched it together. (I was accused of being the same person via PM from a moderator, just clarifying before someone sees the same IP & jumps to conclusions again.) Anyway, I was hesitant to watch but the curiousity got to me. It brought tears to my eyes to see the name "Blind Melon" & then someone else behind the mic. I will say that Travis has a good voice, not putting him down...but the whole time I was watching it, it just felt wrong.

no, not "here we go again". the band sounds great together, and travis has a good voice. i'm just saying that was the first time i saw the new incarnation of the band, and i was posting how i felt about it. just felt like something big was missing...

I honestly don't mean to be short with you. And I know you're only giving your opinion, and you're entitled to that. America the beatiful right. But sometimes it's a drag to log one here and constantly read the same junk. "something's missing", "Blind Melon isn't Blind Melon without Shannon", "It's just not the same." If every other post of mine was "I don't like mushrooms." People would be like. "Enough already! We know you don't like it!"

"Do you think i'd speak for you? I don't even know your language." John bender/ The Breakfast Club All i'm saying is that it gets kinda repeatitive reading the same tired old complaints, that aren't gonna change anything anyway. In the words of Foreverlights, "Look to the future, the past is gone." You can still hold the "old" Blind Melon in high regard, and treasure it. But as quite a few of us have said to you already. There's no sense in constantly spouting your disapproval in every post. We all know how you feel. Your not in the band. And they've decided to move on. And most of us are estatic about it. So unless you have anything new or productive to say, LET IT GO!!!!!..............................please.

"Your not in the band. And they've decided to move on. And most of us are estatic about it. So unless you have anything new or productive to say, LET IT GO!!!!!..............................please. We're not saying that we dissaprove of what the band is doing. In fact I'm all for it. We're just voicing our opinions about how the video feels to us which is what this forum is all about. Voicing opinions, that is... Let go of your selfishness and let others voice thier opinions.

I'm not saying don't voice your opinion. Please do, It make's for interesting conversation. But..........
Blind Melon isn't Blind Melon without Shannon It's not the same Something's missing It's just not right It feels wrong, and so on......... over, and over, and, over, and over again. It's just getting boring and repeatitive. Go look at your profile, and look at your posts. It's the same, rephrased "opinions". Just repeated over and over again. Don't you get sick of writing the same things?

I don't recall writing any of those things so I couldn't say.
Opinions are exactly that - opinions. Just because you perceive them as "overused", "repetitive", or "boring" does not mean that the person who posts them doesn't sincerely feel that way and thats all that matter right?
In no way are you an authority to tell people what opinions are valid and what opinions aren't.
If you don't like a certain opinion keep it to yourself for the sake of maintaining non- argumentative forum.
If not for that at least do it because other people deserve respect for what they think.
Now let's try not to waste any more server space with arguments like this please.
