Let's use this thread to compile video/print interviews of other artists that cite Shannon Hoon.
The only one I can think of off hand is the Chris Cornell comment made on that Fuse TV show that someone posted but hopefully our research will bring more...

You can find interviews, articles, and quotes from Shannon from some of the articles at my website: www.blindmelonarticles.comSome of the links aren't working at the moment, but most of them are valid links.

I always liked this quote from Robert Plant about Blind Melon. It's not about Shannon specifically, but Shannon's definitely part of what Robert Plant is talking about here in the excerpt from this article in RAW magazine (1994): Uploaded with ImageShack.usNAME: Robert Plant AGE: 46 FROM: Birmingham OCCUPATION: Worldwide singing megastar ROBERT IS highly excited about da melon! “Absolutely brilliant! I’ve never seen them before, but they’re just amazing. They take the music off into uncharted places.” When I suggest that their twiddling can lose the plot a little, Robert is dismissive: “Nonsense. That’s what makes it so exciting. They really have what it takes. Are they playing anywhere else while they’re over here? I think they’re so good I have to catch them again.” And with a shake of his mane, the world's greatest Rock God departs! --------------------------------------- I remember now that this spread has a small picture of the old backdrop artwork that Blind Melon un-retired in 2007.
