There is a rocker on American Idol that favors Shannon and has his vocal range. If he does not win Idol, and Travis does not stay, I think he could be a good fit for Blind Melon. Please check out James Durbin on American Idol.

I know exactly who your talkin about, I liked him from the get go! You have an eye for talent! I like that . He sung Judas Priest last week, it even impressed Tyler~! I had NO idea he liked Shannon & Blind Melon. NICE

I thought the same thing the first time I saw him on the show. I would like to see him do a Blind Melon song on the show. That would rock.

Just being honest, and just my opinion.... I couldnt picture him doing the Blind Melon songs justice. The guy is an EXCELLENT singer.. But, for the style of Melon? I can't hear it...

Please check out James Durbin on American Idol. Okay, I just realized as I reread this post, then mine, that yesterday I wasn't exactly the sharpest tool in the tool shed , pertaining to {Theres a Rocker on American Idol that favors Shannon} I thought that meant James was a fan of Shannon's . Well it's a good thing we're all human HUH? ;D

I will Start By Saying, I Have to agree with Matt. James Is a Great Singer, But Not Melon Material (in My opinion, Atleast). I was in fact impressed with Him From the Night he Auditioned. That Guy Can really Pull Off Some Screaming Notes LIKE A CHAMP! Great Future ahead of Him No Doubt! HOPEFULLY THERE WONT BE ANY NEED FOR HIM IN BLIND MELON...I THINK TRAVIS IS GONNA STICK AROUND AND CONTINUE TO DO A FINE JOB FOR US.
quartermoonmist, We are all Human, Honest Mistake...And very Minimal compared to The Mistakes this Human Makes! LOL.

yeah, i havent been following american idol...i have a 5 yr old and i dont get tv priviliges!! but i checked him out. he has a great voice and seems really versatile. nothing really struck me as melon, but who knows....i havent heard him sing melon song yet. anyways.....travis is the blind melon singer. he is amazing for overcoming some of his challenges and being able to shine like that. unbelievable and a real inspiration.....i think he'll make it doing what he loves....he just seems to be sincere about what hes doing. i only saw a little bit about him, but he seems like a real sweetheart and he has already been able to overcome many challenges in his life. i hope he goes far!

Just wanted to let everyone know that Shannon is the Best & there will never be another like him. Travis is great too. ;D It would just be cool if someone did a Blind Melon song on Idol was all I meant & James would be the best candidate on the show.

Has anyone besides me thought that James Durbin looks like Shannon when he was a teenager?

I thought he kind of did. He's got a really cute smile like Shannon.

This is My First Year Keeping up with Idol...Has anyone ever covered Melon On the Show Before? That would be Awesome. I definately think if someone was Gonna attempt it this year, James would be the Guy for the Job...Still, Not sure he is melon Material, as far as securing a spot in the Band...We Love You Travis.

thanks for posting that jjjennnnnnnnnnn! wow....sheesh.....i know everythings open for interpretation, but i did not like it......but thats just my opinion. bless his heart for trying and it was cool that(tommy lee?)said it was a challenging song to try. if someone is going to attempt another melon song, i think they need to think past no rain......really, on a show like that i can imagine it would be hard to do right by any melon song....i think it would have to be a full band effort, not just a singer "performing" a song to even sound half way decent.

Yes lovejoy, I totally agree with you! Plus the guys heart didn't seem to be in it either. I too wish people would go further then "No Rain" every song is so amazing, I couldn't even fathom my life without them in it. If that guy Josh wanted to do a Blind Melon song he may have had a better chance with maybe 2x4? But your right again, it would be hard for anyone to do Blind Melon justice they are One Of A Kind! Here's hoping Blind Melon Finally gets the recognition they deserve.
