Summary: A must have for all Blind melon fans
Review: I've owned the vhs version of letters from a porcupine for over 4 years now and i'm surprised i haven't worn it out already. Rest in Peace Shannon Hoon. Whether you like Blind Melon or not Shannon has one of the greatest voices and the band is one of the most musically talented bands ever and it shows on this video. It starts off with 2x4 and Galaxia in the Metro in Chicago. However the best performances are Change on the David Letterman Show and Mouthful of Cavities with his girlfriend in their studio in New Orleans. Buy this, you'll love it.

Summary: get your Melon (head) straight finally
Review: Remember how sick of the bee girl you were and "No Rain" just playing and playing and playing over again on the radio? I remember... I also remember when I got over that and really gave Blind Melon a chance. They are by far one of the most underrated bands to ever have a hit song. Behind the Music, along with the rest of the world, only remembers and depicts Shannon Hoon's tragic flaws and images of that darned bee girl. This DVD (or the video version even) will give you a perspective of what the whole band was about, and not strictly with respect to "No Rain". Buy this and get an understanding that may change your musical perspective forever...

Review: This DVD is a special thing. I remember being in college while Blind Melon was happening. They were one of many great things going on in music at the time. I wish I had payed them more attention, which is made ovious to me buy this film. This band really had a special sound. Captured here brilliantly.

Summary: The Best DVD I Own
Review: This DVD is essential to all fans of the Band. There are about 6 or 7 songs from the soup tour that show how good this band really was.To see how much emotion shannon put into these songs moves you to see it.Also contains two songs From their Intimate & Interactive on Much Music(Lemonade,St.Andrews Falls). also contains woodstock 94' songs as well as extensive footage from there first tour. An absolute must for not just Blind Melon Fans but anybody whom is a fan of rock documentary.As soon as I was done watching it I wanted to watch it again, seen it 6 times to date.

Summary: good for the fans
Review: This is a very nice dvd but I get the feeling that it can only really be beneficial and enjoyable to a true fan, not someone with maybe only a slight interest. The quality of the video is pretty low; it aint film though, at times it looks like almost a high school production. The sound quality as well during some of the live performances leaves much to be desired...it sounds like the mix wasnt tweaked at all for home listening. Both of these quality issues really are easy to get past and the video progressively gets much much better. By the end it really has you pretty captivated.
The Woodstock footage is most definitely classic, and mouthful of cavities, although it is just the studio version, is phenomenal.
Major con is the lack of chapters in the documentary. Come On! Its like fast-forwarding a *shudder* VHS!

Summary: A Must
Review: This is an awesome dvd for any new or old melon fans.A must have and a true inner look of the band.It shows how great a person shannon was and how tragic his loss truly was.Also to a previous review the girl featured on Mouth full of cavities was not shannon's girlfriend it was a a fan of the bands who went to many shows saying she could sing.The band later let her sing and decided to put her on a track while they were recording.The story is told in the dvd.

Summary: Great Performances
Review: This video has great footage of various performances by Blind Melon. Among these are the band at The Metro in Chicago in September, 1995, shortly before Shannon's death. Also featured is Shannon Hoon dressed in all white performing at Woodstock in 1994. From that same year the band is featured on Saturday Night Live and David Letterman.There are also various outtakes from the making of the "No Rain" video. The band is shown working on the "Soup" album in their classic home/studio in New Orleans. This video also features clips from MTV News with Kurt Loder commenting on the band and Shannon's legal problems.
