I donated and hoping for it to happen.... I found out the 100K is for legal fees and its only a small amount to what the bill really is. Wow 100K+ to use Shannon's personal video footage that he would have released. I just find it crazy and unjustified to the fans and the makers behind the film. It's been 20 years, back off and let the DVD sales provide the profit to the parties involved.... Ok I'm done complaining! the money is to legally clear music that is in the movie and archival TV footage so that the film can be released without pending lawsuits that would cost much more than the 300 grand that the clearance will cost

I've donated ..... proudly
I wish this place would come back to life
that 20k surprise clip of Shannon in the vocal booth/room at Kingsway sent chills down my spine and brought tears to my eyes

my Name is Anthony I'm new here I've been a Blind Melon fan since I saw them in Dec. of 1991 at the LImelight in NYC. I had no idea who they were at the time but was blown away by their energy as a band and their charismatic singer. since then I've seen them a few times two nights in a row in April of '92 at the Ritz in NYC then one night later at the limelight again later that same year at the Stone Pony in March of '93 at the Wetlands in NYC then in Aug. of '93 at the Garden State Arts Center Feb of 94 at Rutgers University Aug of '94 at the Stone Pony then at Woodstock Sep. of '95 at the Tradwinds then Oct. of '95 at the Palace in LA
they were great just about every time
when living in LA in the late 90s I became pretty close to Chris Thorn and Brad Smith while they were playing in Unified Theory my band rehearsed down the hall from them at Downtown Rehearsal .... I really dug U.T. and those guys were always great to me
I don't consider anything post Shannon Blind Melon
nothing against Travis... or whatever his name is.... but that is just not Blind Melon to me at all
looking forward to talking with you all

I've been trying to find out if any family member was able to retain the hat
hopefully they were and it is in a safe place
I would assume that it was given to Lisa who then gave it to Nico I'm sure
I've seen footage of Nico playing her dads Guild acoustic ..... that made me happy
