Blind Melon 2/29/08 Hartford, Ct

momofglynn

Hey there. Just a friendly reminder that Blind Melon is playing tonight in Hartford, CT at the Webster Theater. Doors open at 6, show starts at 8. It's going to be snowing like crazy tonight too! Should be an interesting ride home!!!! I went to the 1st show in Oct that they had in RI and I felt it was pretty special and down right fucking awesome that I got to see the guys playing the good stuff again. Travis the new guy is great. Taking nothing away from Shannon of course. Would like to meet a few fellow jammers!

****Disclaimer*****
I know there are some real sensitive Blind Melon fans out there that are completely againsts the re-birth of the band. I understand your views and I respect your feelings. Please don't say that I can't be a real fan if I like going to see this project. Because it could not be farther from the truth.

Have a great weekend!

i hope they come back soon!

whatever happened to the album? at the show, they said it'd be out in january. has it been postponed?

I think it's now schedule for March. I will check out the booths when I get there and perhaps a presale if you will. They seem to be doing thing else at grass root level so why not that too. I am really excited. I am going with 3 of my friends. We ALL love the band so I think it will be a great night!

Have a great time. I wish I could go to this. I'm work about 1/2 hour north of the city but need to get home tonight. I miss this band. Cheers!

I'm seeing them 3/31 and hope like hell the new record is out by then. If not, well, I guess I'll keep waiting...

there was no new cd at the show. I think it will be out before the 3/31 show. The Hartford show was great. What a wierd night however. It's like the theater is right in the middle of a neighborhood. I was thinking it was close to the city but we drove through a couple of neighborhoods and there it was.

You could only drink in a certain section which was ok, at least you could drink. The sound wasn't the best but the band played great. I am still hoping for Vernie some day soon. The opening acts weren't the great but everyone was pretty excited for Blind Melon so it did not matter.

The ride home was the worst! The snow was nuts. Thankfully we made it home, it just took us a little longer than we wanted. Fucking truckers were driving like crazy people!

I am wondering how the NYC show was. Go to their myspace page and check out where they will be next. You will not be disappointed I promise.

Cheers!
