I didn't realize he was younger than me. "Tones of Home" still holds up great.

I thought that he died within weeks of Kurt Cobain. I could swear it.

I thought that was why Shannon's death was overshadowed by Kurt's.

How did I remember wrong?

i thought they were pretty close as well. hmmm.

anyway....here's my SPOOKY kurt cobain/shannon hoon story.

i was a freshman in college the year both of them died. in my dorm room i had a picture of each of them hanging up at some place on my wall.

after kurt's incident in rome.....(his picture fell down.) i hung it back up. and it would stay for a week or so at a time. but it kept falling down. then he passed away.

i jokingly said that this picture's fate was linked to kurt's death.

shortly after that..... shannon's picture fell. same thing. i kept hanging it up. it kept falling down. then he died.

<cue spooky music here>

If you ever hang up pictures of me, please let me know the first time it falls.

Most of their debut is still pretty great actually. "I Wonder" is another favourite.

too bad the dude died, but to put a silver lining on it, at least we didn't have to suffer any more blind melon records.

nice job on 'don't cry' tho
