I have been a freak about Blind Melon's music for years. It takes me too a place that nothing else can. It all started in the early 90's. I enjoyed my one and only show in Austin,Tx. 1993. Blind Melon opened for Neil Young. My experience goes.... a few hours before the show my friend and i split 1/4 shrooms.... got to the show and was about the third song in and i started buggin out on these particular mushrooms and got up out of my seat to proceed to the exit. (bad shrooms) and the band was just finishing sleepyhouse, when shannon said.... as i walked up the asile..." for those of you who want to stay and hear the next song, here is tones of home". To this day I feel so bad cause I didnt want to get up a walk away during the set... but had no choice considering... bad shrooms. Im just stoked that there is a site like this......Im now married, father of 2 and still fukin rock to Blind Melon on a weekly basis. For the last 15 years I thought I was on an island of my own. Now I know Blind Melon fans do exsist.
Thanks for listening to me!!!!!!!!

Welcome Gary! So glad you found us! Have you had the chance to see them live after the reunion? You probably won't get to hear Tones of Home again but at least it will make up (a little) for missing half the show in 93. Just don't eat any shrooms this time!
