I'm excited....second year going to the vigil. Taking off from work and sleeping with my room mate in her car cause no rooms. But not to worry I hope to meet many melonheads. When I was at the show last year, everyone seemed to be in groups and what not but I think I shall put myself out there more to meet you guys. I can't wait though.

I know this sounds weird, but does anyone know the whereabouts of the drums that Shannon gave to the crowd at Woodstock '94? Its very very very important to me....And if so, could that bring them to the vigil? And does anyone know if Shannon had any shamanistic beliefs, or possibly claimed occult knowledge of any sort? Possibly a celtic, or druid based belief system?

Hi guys! Just wanted to let you guys know that I have decided that I just HAVE TO GO! We have had the sitters set up, the room reserved and some saved dough. I wasn't sure what to do a few weeks ago but I think my brother would tell me how stupid I would be not to go. I am sure that I will have my moments(I do everyday) but I almost feel like this is something that I really need to do for so many reasons. I never even knew about the vigil until last summer. I had always thought, before the fact, that it would be cool to find out where Shannon was and go pay my respects to him. And now I can get to pay respect to his mother as well and that is something that feel that I need to do. Now that Ms. Nel has lost Tim my heart goes out to her more than ever. I always thought OMG I couldn't imagine losing a child, no matter how old. And now seeing what my mom is going through it just makes me want to melt away. I couldn't imagine 2 children. So, with that being said, I feel like things around here have been pretty deep, seriously sad, and extremely depressing, so I need to celebrate a few different lives. We will be leaving on thursday night so we should be there sometime friday morning. Sending my love to all you guys *peace Jess

Just wanted to say safe travels everyone and have a BLAST!!! I know you will anyway, hehe... I can't believe it's been one year since I was there, it actually seems longer cause so many things and changes happened in between. I still remember driving to Lafayette first night with Gabby and Heidi, feeling more than ever that I'm in the right place at the right time...yes, in that car...cause I knew where it would lead me I miss all the melonheads, big hugs to everyone! #smileyhug# :oim very excited....cant believe im actually getting to go! i also cannot believe im getting back on a plane after nearly crashing on one 3 years ago!!!! reality is kickin in and i had a bad nightmare about flying last night....lets hope this does not prove to be prophetic!!! seriously, im starting to panic!! yall please send some good thoughts my way........im seriously terrified!!! Don't worry, Shannon will watch after you
