i recently was talking to a friend at work about my love for melon! she hadnt heard anything but "no rain" (ofcourse, right?!) and now is getting into them. she loves Nico, and and tells me about it all the time. that always is a good feeling hearing converted melon heads in the world. isnt it? and to top off the new melon friend, she recently was talking to her brother and catching up on how he was doing. he told her that his roomate was giving away free cd's, shirts, etc. that he had held on to since high school. i received a great couple of holiday presents from her... an original copy of the soup album (which i had not previously had) and a vigil shirt from 2003, the black one with a trippy picture of shannon holding his hands together with a keen smile... its my favorite melon shirt!! (similar to the attached photo!) and the quote is definitely one of my favorites: "fridays are always fresh days!" that has to be my first thought every friday, when my (most ridiculously annoying sounding) alarm goes off... that is the power of melon love... infinite.

It is a nice feeling when you recruit new ears to melon. Last year I burned everything I had for an 18 year old family friend, he loves it, he ended up at the Charlotte show in June with us. This fall I did the same thing for my 15 and 20 year old cousins, and my 57 year old aunt. They want in on the next melon trip we take, they are always asking me if there is any new news yet on the future of Melon..... #redlight_unity_02#

I've had the gratification of converting a few people to Melon. I got my friend Joey into them about eight years ago. My friends Matt and Robbin are now faithful listeners. My dad was actually a Melon head before me. So he is the one who introduced me to Blind Melon.
