Brothers and Sisters of the Melon I am in my comfortable yet somewhat nasty Holiday Inn room in Grand Rapids. My friend/new Melon-oma Brother in arms and I await what is sure to be an evening of love and music. I will give you the best and as accurate report as I can the next time I log in. I dont plan on taking any pictures,notes or tweeting my life as I live it. I have been a Melonhead since inception and to me this is what Blind Melon represents. Live and Love Life .

Amazing show! All old tunes and the guys sounded great. Travis' vocals were top notch and he was having a great time. Before soak the sin he invited us to jump the barricade. A good twenty people were on stage dancing. Played through the entire setlist including the encore. Left and we demanded more. Came out and finished with walk. Travis did some improv on it which was sweet. Guys all came out and took a final bow. Oh and I got a signed drumstick by the entire band. They all hung out afterward. Glen said some possible zeppelin covers by the end of the month. Oh and travis busted out a guitar solo during no rain ripped away! That's all I remember for now. Great night!
