    I can't say enough how stoked I am to hear Blind Melon's music live and in color.  New Orleans House of Blues was an incredible show...the crowd couldn't have been more appreciative.  And I didn't even think about it until after the show that we were celebrating their music just a few blocks away from where Shannon Hoon died 13 years ago.   At the meet and greet after the show I got chance to finally tell them how thankful I am that they are playing again.  I got a picture with Rogers Stevens...see above photo...me stoked and three sheets to the wind.

    That's great man! I'm glad the show had that kind of energy from the crowd. I couldn't get reception when you tried to call me from the show.. sorry i never called ya back.

    Anyway, the LA show had that kind of crowd 'performance' too - really good energy. I heard from a friend that went down to SD the next night for the next show that it wasn't anywhere near the same...

    ... sounds like people love 'em in the places they called home.

    Glad you got to experience that...

    Peace!
