Hello, Janet. Nice to hear from you :) How crowded does it get at
Shannon's grave around his birthday? Are there just as many people
there throughout the year? You are lucky you live so close. I have a
feeling I'd be there all of the time if I lived only a few minutes
away. Did you ever attend a Blind Melon concert/gig?

Do the stores in Lafayette, and the surrounding towns, have a lot of
Shannon and Blind Melon items to buy? I used to have the short
sleeve T-shirt with the Bee Girl on it. But now I've been looking
for a long sleeve t-shirt, or a more fitted one, like a girlie T or
something. Have they stopped making them? They are sure hard to
find :(

Hope to hear from you soon!

//Darlene
