I got to see Shannon four times but the first was most memorable…January 93 at a small bar, Tewligands, in Louisville, KY. The stage was 12 inches high and Shannon was in his beard phase. That show and their music was everything I didn’t know I needed. In all the years since then I’ve loved a lot of great music but nothing has come close to Blind Melon. A bit of trivia…I went to LA in late 92 and needed music to listen to while driving my shitty rental car (acquired from the infamous Rent-A-Wreck rental company). Talking to a record store employee I bought their self-titled album on cassette and listened to it nonstop until their show mentioned above. I knew every note by heart. My best memory at that show was when I couldn’t contain myself and between songs yelled “BLIND MELON RULES!” (Nothing better than being 22 and buzzed 😂) Shannon started laughing and high fived me. All that to say, I miss him. We all do.

I have always felt extremely emotionally connected with Shannon and that emotional dichotomy that was always present in his songs. Tones of Home is one that I never really felt this deeply personal about until seeing this version of Shannon singing it. It was like watching the first crack form in his joyful façade, and it's crushing.

I love this video. I have seen Blind Melon live 3 times. I am from Vancouver. I was at the show when they were the back up band for Lenny Kravitz and Shannon took his clothes off and went to the (his) left side of the stage and peed. I also went to both of the concerts at the Commodore that they had to do as part of the court ordered restitution to benefit the empty stocking fund for the food bank in Vancouver. Both shows were nothing short of spectacular. It is sad that he was unable to stay on the path of sobriety. Down is a hard drug to kick. That is why we lose so many people to that life and so many overdose. I pray his daughter does not fall pray to addiction. Gone definitely not forgotten. Shannon Hoon a beautiful, genuine, soul. 🥀🌿 ❤
