I met Shannon by accidentally walking into his dressing room at the bearsville theater in Woodstock ny back in the early 90s , he was extremely nice and invited me to stay and talk . Very very nice guy . He was sipping hot tea and telling me about how he loved to listen to Jim croce.

I was so lucky enough to hear Shannon play "Candy Says" at the Roseland Ballroom in NYC '94. Then later that year, he dominated Woodstock like it was the warm up show at the Stone Pony that I had seen them at 2 days before. He had that ability to reach 300,000+ people like they were in a small club. Blind Melon is over looked too often. ❤

A couple cool and one sad tidbit(s) about Shannon. His mother Vernell was from Addison Alabama. My grandfather and grandmother both from just down the road in Moulton, Alabama became friends with Vernell and my grandfathers brother/my great Uncle Tommy and Vernell were a couple and had planned to marry and move to Indiana for work at the same time as my grandparents. Before it came to fruition Uncle Tommy was killed in a car accident at age 18. Vernell as well as my grandparents still moved to Lafayette, Indiana. But obviously Shannon may have never been had my Uncle Tommy not died in the accident. My family and Vernell’s have always been in touch although I cannot recall meeting her I guess I did as a kid. Shannon was 7 years older than me. But having been raised to love music I followed Shannon’s local band Styff Kytten as a youngster. When I was a freshman in high school it was announced Styff Kytten would be playing our high school (William Henry Harrison HS) junior/senior prom. So my best friends sister was (I believe) a Senior and their mom was a chaperone for the prom. Knowing we wanted to watch Styff Kytten, the mom snuck us two into the weight room which overlooked the small gym where that particular prom was held to watch the show. This would have been 1989-90. Not too much later Axl (also a Lafayette Indiana native) had Shannon singing backing vocals on Use Your Illusion and the rest is history. I would actually see Shannon back in town from time to time and he always took the time to say hi. I’d always ask for an autograph (never sold a single one, always gave them to friends and he knew this) and he’d always oblige. The last one that I got from Shannon I gave to my good friends little brother who had been visiting from Lynchburg, VA. It made his trip and that will always make it worth it for me. Like every autograph I’d gotten from Shannon, he would write the year he’d signed it. This particular autograph said “Shannon Hoon - Blind Melon ‘95!!” But there were hearts in place of the exclamation mark dots. It was mid August 1995. I’d never see him again. To this day I can hit play on many of their songs and get goosebumps and tears in my eyes at the same time. None do so more than Mouthful of Cavities.

If the Dutch documentary style version was a vhs, it would long be worn out for me. Glad this version exists. But Vulvet Un-der-grand was the only words I understood other than Blend Melun. And blue jeans or something. The best part is when Shannon Hoon is belting away in a back room, slams the door, and everyone is waiting on him awkwardly. Merry Christmas
