Anybody gone to one of shows with the new lead singer, Travis Warren? Or like the band?

This a great bassline IMO.

Blind Melon's self titled debut is prolly my favourite grunge album... okay, that's a lie, it's Sweet Oblivion by The Screaming Tree's. But a close second, and i will say Brad Smith is AMAZING!!! His lines are so great and just fit so well with the songs! Especially Tones of Home, Change, Sleepyhouse... You know, the whole albums just so great, it's a shame no one could look past that stupid radio hit No Rain (good song but overplayed)

First i've heard of a reunion besides crazy rumours... very cool, though Hoon left shoe's that i think will just be too hard to fill. RIP indeed.

I love Blind Melon

Tones of Home has always been a big influence on my playing since I first heard it many moons ago.

Also, Soup is one of the greatest underrated albums of all time, what a mindblowing experience.

oh, right on. 'tones of home' is one of my all-time favorite bass lines ever. and the 'three is the magic number' cover they did for that schoolhouse rocks compilation is also fantastic.

Here's another nod to Tones Of Home being a great bassline. That whole album is awesome, as is the Screaming Trees record.
