Soup live at Woodstock '94

[drsilaslang]

It's incredibly hard to deliver such a bad-ass set while tripping, but Shannon constantly pulled it off.

[newrealization12]

That foot stomp at like 2:41 when the drums hit and shit exploads is so awesome.

[PeaceLoveHappness4]

Soo great :)

[rielymavilla]

awsome wish he was alive

[GrizzlTooth]

ha, i've never really understood moshing during such a song.

[steviewpee]

Really? Moshing at 3:13?

[rayito2005]

MI HERMANA OPINA QUE AQUI SHANNON SE VE SEXY Y BELLO.

[Mirkostudio]

the legend

[roscoegino]

Loved his voice, but I'm mad at him. Hard to have sympathy for him. I hate when people rely on drugs.

[DavidMRyanMD]

hear the ghosts sing!!

[chrisandamyblog]

Amazing

[vigilanteghost]

Had this man lived, he would have saved the state of music today. The world really needs this man's talent back in our lives. RIP Shannon. We all miss you buddy.

[austinsmith280]

If you pay attention to shanon its easy to see he is having the time of his life at this little get together there called woodstock 94

[austinsmith280]

WOW he killed this woodstock show. by far the best show i have ever seen and i think i have seen em all.I get cold chills watching this show. When ever i need some soul cleaning i listen to or play CHANGE OR SOUP. Watch me and a friend do it .On youtube punch in (blind melon beginers nigel and whit)Im the guy in the wife beater and the pretty dark haired girl with the pretty voice is my friend .We are beginers but i think it turned out pretty good!

[herbert7711]

This song is pure art

[ericgsims]

you were the man shannon. so tragic you're not with us anymore.

[brophizzy7ofthehizzy]

Cid it up

[bignick358]

I was there......now Im 41 with 3 kids, a job and a mortgage. I wouldnt trade anything for my memories. The best times of my life. The people I know now would never dream that was my life. Still hit the bong when everyones asleep at night..... and remember....... RIP Shannon, I know we'll meet again.....

[ericgsims]

@bignick358 i hear ya man. i'm right there with ya. i'm 40 with 3 kids, job and mortgage also and this band and others like it in the 90s were the greatest time. i feel bad for my kids that they didn't experience this first hand. then again with all the pot i smoked in college, maybe not. :). anyhow. don't feel alone when you're there with your bong late at night. there's others of us there with you in spirit.

[jacobcounty]

@bignick358 was there too! 37 now wife and child! mortgage, job! at the time blind melon was my favorite! what a memory! they are still a fav by the way and yes hit it nightly!

[TheClam77]

saw them in 92, first band i ever saw, still love em today!

[chokeonbubblegum]

I would give anything to not be 2 years old when this happened and to be there.

ANYTHING. even if it meant THAT WAS THE LAST TIME I LIVED.

[nelsondln]

world of warcraft made a video with this song, its pretty trippy, search "world of warcraft suicide soup"

[StarTurtlePuff]

well of course his *drug death is extremelly heart breaking.... geesh.

i love it when he breaks out in the eagle dance step at 2:43

few say monkey...i say eagle dance step..maybe even some sort of dinasaur.. i say eagle dance step

[JCLII]

Who disliked this? I bet they are Republicans.

[JCLII]

I miss him so much.

[rileyaw03]

Don't do drugs kids

[clintonplaza]

Simply: THE GREATEST!

[Sarahon06]

When I was a child this meant so much to me. Now I understand why.

[cory0778]

Great song, great band, Shannon Hoon amazing!!! Those were good days, can we get them back?

[tweekintommy]

This makes me sad....such a waste of amazing talent.....

[Dylan420skater]

LSD is great for woodstock

[sahmbedah]

I remember when Gwar made fun of Shannon Hoon for dying of an overdose on a tourbus...funny how Karma works Corey Smoot

[johnnytodumb420]

sounds so peacefull

[BBBBAAAAM]

I wish i could've gotten to mosh with the audience during this song

[mattyvegas19]

Sad. Blind Melon and Mother Love Bone should have run the 90's. Two of the best bands that never got their full due. Look kids...stay off the H..

[guitarlvrify]

@mattyvegas19 yes yes yes you are so right !!

[Slammjammusic]

@mattyvegas19 Stay off H but blow also killed shannon

[vickiT1968]

God Bless YOU Shannon & your Beautiful Son...I wanna go with you.

[TheMikyDiky]

SHANNON THE BEST SHUT UP YOU HATERS GO LISTEN LADY GAGA

[howardb42006]

Holy hell, i miss this band.... ya brother, hope to see you on the other side...

[Cubehead666]

That last line hits hard.

[vickiT1968]

ha ha was just gonna say dude riding the wave was butt naked balls & all!!! & i thought going to the dead was fun!

Yes very sad ending for this man..heay Seandlulis~ bite hairy butt hole & keep it to yourself creep

[vickiT1968]

ha ha was just gonna say dude riding the wave was butt naked balls & all!!! & i thought going to the dead was fun!

[Nancycarigen]

At 1:29 i was like "Oh Sh*t! That chicks boobies are falling out!"

[empirestatebuilding1]

i have to admit that i get all emotional listening to this song. sad ending for this man :-(

[laynayiag]

love him his voice is beautiful

[empirestatebuilding1]

@q8w8e8r8t8y8u8i8o22 i didn't mean to offend anyone....i'll just listen to the music.

[seandlulis]

Great song... It really stirs up some crazy intense feelings... But im havin trouble understanding it... Like the corner store part.. I suppose its enough to just enjoy it.. Thats the difference btween good music and shit

[seavoyagerful]

@seandlulis the shannon's persona is ridiculous...all in this singer is ridiculous...but the music and the voice 're excelent!!...but I prefer just to hear, not to see this man...haha

[crazydazy33]

Happy 44th Birthday Shannon! Rip, sadly missed........

[ButTheseGoToEleven]

I was 9 months old when Shannon was rocking that stage.

[kakashiluver123100]

shannon looks like ronnie bass.

[howardb42006]

Get ready melon heads...

[stevenpc72]

13 idiots hit the dislike button.....clowns! R.I.P Richard Shannon Hoon

[howardb42006]

the dude at the end "let's hear it for blind fukin' melon ! " lol

[DorianGrey3913]

this is the first time i've ever listened to this song, (just started getting into blind melon) and i got chills

[250honda]

@DorianGrey3913 lol i was where you are a couple months ago. his vocals are just insanely unique. my favorite singer by far

[sexiimeemer]

his hairbrettes are so cute :)

[PLURadelphia]

my favorite version / favorite song

"And I'll pull the trigger and make it all go away

And I'll make it all go away, I'll make it all go away"

[clipdan]

Yep I was in there somewhere... Woodstock 1994 !

[proudfoot94]

R.I.P Shannon Hoon

[howardb42006]

my brother...

[MrSlevine21]

bradley nowell. man.

[TheBsk5150]

Totally under-rated once in a lifetime talent.

[massivebig1]

i love this song!!

[MudCow33]

My Favorite Band of all time, and will always will be, Love you richard, RIP

[ANiceGameOfChess]

I live in Shannon Hoon's hometown now while I'm going to grad school. If I ever want to hear a new story about him, all I do is wear a Blind Melon shirt somewhere and without fail, someone stops me to say hi and tell me something about him that I had never heard before.

There are remnants of him all over this town and he'll never be forgotten here.

[icantchooseusername]

@ANiceGameOfChess where do i get a blind melon t-shirt? search the webs with no sucess

[ANiceGameOfChess]

@icantchooseusername Try ebay. Shannon's mom sells shirts to fans at the annual vigil too - I don't know if you can travel to central Indiana, but if you ever make it to one you can buy one from her.

[icantchooseusername]

@ANiceGameOfChess thanks, but the problem is i live in sweden. lawl.

[kozmicblues14]

@ANiceGameOfChess Really what did they say? Can you tell me:) I mean if its too much trouble then you dont have to or if you just dont feel like telling me. I dont mean to trouble you, I just really wanna know im just really curious about him I never knew him though obviously( im only 14 yrs old) thats cool people still remember Shannon:)

[ANiceGameOfChess]

@kozmicblues14 They usually tell stories about how they were friend with either him or his former band's guitarist Mike Kelsey and saw them perform before Shannon got famous. They also tell stories of how much he liked to party, how he had a dark sense of humor, that he was a good football player, etc. People always speak positive of him, and the people who partied with him always say talk about him with a grin on their face :)

[kozmicblues14]

@ANiceGameOfChess Oh Thanks:) I wish I nkew Shannon he seemed like a great Person:) Thanks for sharing:)

[detroitjd]

@ANiceGameOfChess Beautiful. Excellent to hear.

[sanoonbs]

@ANiceGameOfChess Where is that??!

[claymac06]

@ANiceGameOfChess You should talk to Bruce Barker at the Cactus (if u can stand being at the cactus lol), he's told me a lot of great stories about shannon

[guitarlvrify]

My nipples got hard when he started sing and im a guy uhoh ithink ive got issues

[JerseyShoreLynch]

I believe Shannon wore the smock in honor of Kurt.

[EP1CxWaLLbaNGz]

This is the best preformance i have ever seen in my life

[zechlas]

+++great video+++

[gophishn]

Every once in a while I get a feeling to listen to some melon..Today is one of those days..Shannon you are missed dearly..Something about the lyrics and vocals that always seem to touch my soul!!!

[lokisiva]

R.I.P.

[nottheduck1]

Why does he look like a gay?

[ABigHopelessMess]

@nottheduck1 Fuck off.

[razorbladepixie]

God I remember watching this live on pay per view. This takes me back. RIP Shannon. You are still very much missed and adored.

[asaum3]

@razorbladepixie So do I! So do I!

[allmuckedupnow]

@asaum3 fuck u

[rednmasgamas]

135? WOW o.o I'll never go o.0

[folelserr]

3:15 .. I don't like it

[BlindMelon1993]

he had no idea how powerful he was, such an amazing fruntman

[amhammond65]

How'd they get the drummer from Hootie and the Blowfish?

[zoidums]

who says u cant moshpitt to hippy music?

:)

[boxanova66]

I was 13 years old when this came out and it is still my favorite song...

[enjoiskater134]

his eyes are shut hahha

[jessicaspade4U]

I'll pull the trigger and make you all go awayyyyy..incredible songwriter...it's really sad that these greats have been "painted over". You've given us all and for that..we can never repay you...rip brother

[jessicaspade4U]

Drinking with my buddy the other night and he told me he went to woodstock 94. Main reason being melon. He said after an all nighter on that wonderful substance known as LSD he came out of his tent and shannon was singing no rain...and at that exact same time it stopped raining...trippy..but he looked onstage and he said to me "Man, shannon looked like an angel onstage singing"

Only a few (including me) can totally relate. My first trip was NIN self destructive tour in 95..blew my fckn mind!

[SoColBradley]

@jessicaspade4U  I skipped like a month of highskool to hitch-hike to this show. Toetaly worfit!

[TheDunkaccino]

Shannon wore his girlfriend's dress to Woodstock. Haha. What a rocker

[AmericanProud68]

I love listening to don't cry by G&R. Shannon could harmonize so well:)

[carley0312]

Shannon you are missed , where has all the good music gone?

[nicholsjoshua15]

@carley0312 Cage The Elephant, Poets Of The Fall, and Sunrise Avenue are still around so good music still exist it's just not in the mainstream like it use to be. The reason it's not in the mainstream is because real music has no marketing opportunities, and corporations want to sell their stuff. On the other hand Gangster Rappers can sing a whole song about their shoes and how cool they are because of them.

[lithum2010]

I love this band and its music and the fact there's a cellist playing!

[TechnicaIlyInsane]

My favorite by far performance of any song ever so far...my opinion

[foomanchueighty2]

@TechnicaIlyInsane You know, I've always thought that too. What an incredible moment.

[TechnicaIlyInsane]

you gotta do your best to decorate these dying days

[amhammond65]

Hey, isn't that the drummer from Hootie and the Blowfish? Cool!. Well, not really....

[ballbagjim]

shannon was my generation''s jim morrison. damn it all. be good, shannon.

[danchan85]

A beautiful tune from a beautiful heart. May you rest in peace, Shannon.

[live2dance22sda]

I fucking love you Shannon.

Rest in peace

Your amazing and beautiful

[lester5192]

what's with the gay ass cello player all nervou? and this hippie shit about soup and this singers ghandi threads? fags. lol.

[jdizzle5234]

I remember in '94 all I thought this band was, was no rain. Then I watched this woodstock performance. I was blown away. I loved them up until Hoon's death (R.I.P.)........ They really could have been one of the greats from my generation.

[voro122]

The 90's were near perfection. The last 11 years have been far away from decent. Sad.

[boxanova66]

God I miss 90's music

[metchella]

and now I 'll close my eyes really really tight and I'll make you all go away

[indieindy]

Look at those fools, moshing to Blind Melon.

[jeanlament12]

@indieindy Look at this fool, mackin' on Blind Melon.

[indieindy]

@jeanlament12

Not sure I understand what you are trying to convey?

[purpleholesporkman]

miles should smashed the cello.

[kt102290]

I love shannon hoon he was amazing his voice is heaven. I love to smoke a dubbie and listen to blind melon! Rip man im smoking one for you right now!! :)

[rsohlich1]

You should be able to distort whatever it is you wanna distort...haha Oh YEA!

[Lutzerozero]

Why was Soup not on the album Soup ?

[purpleholesporkman]

@Lutzerozero Soup was scheduled to be, but the band hated how it sounded then. it was rerecorded and was released with Nico. I read the book. This is how they wanted it to sound, exept couldnt do it in a studio. Thanks for being a fan. Melonhead 4 life bro. peace

[12Randall14]

SHANNON WHY BROTHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[hectorhines]

Fucking mosh pit"?? YEAH, real cool.... RIP HOON!

[rayito2005]

[HanoverFist247]

[quantummechanic333]

[Ising4u93]

[daniiiiiii68]

proud to say i was there.. fresh

[michealkg78]

we lost a good one here folks. i recognized it the day it happened. most people are oblivous to the future this guy was going to lead us in.

[Raiderfn31]

decorate this dying day...WTF...that is so intense...Am I off base on this? All over a bowl of bitter beens.......Shannons Lyrics...not mine.....GENIUS

[joshmorehouse]

My mom and dad went to Jefferson High School with him in Lafayette Indiana... Him and my dad hung out alot. It's sad he died. :(

[ABEEZY9]

@joshmorehouse I heard Shannon was a start football player in highschool - any truth to that?

[a1b248]

@ABEEZY9 yeah man. watch behind the music - shannon hoon, and letters from a porcupine DVD, read up on the internet. you'll learn eveerything you need to know about him

[newrealization12]

@a1b248 There is even a book on blind melon called a devil on one shoulder and an angel on the other. Its awesome. Includes interviews of shannon and the other band members and friends and family of the band..

[onepoet63]

@newrealization12 The book is incredible! When I read it, it was as though I was there. Greg Prato did a wonderful job on it. I highly recommend the book! ...........Sleep Peacefully Beautiful Angel Shannon. I will C U N Heaven............Peace

[newrealization12]

@onepoet63 Yeah I breezed through that book. Its a great read for any melon head

[GuItArRoCkS112]

@ABEEZY9 yes.

[kathismahiny]

@joshmorehouse too bad he went to McCutcheon

[joshmorehouse]

@kathismahiny maybe it wasnt high school then.. but they went to the same school at some point.

[bukk3t]

@joshmorehouse at least that means you must have at least a few good genes in your soul. sorry bro........... love.

[MissD79]

I almost cry everytime he sings "I'll close my eyes and make it all go away"

[thugproofclips]

speedball killed him and layne stanley...music made from stoned people are deep, and after i had some weed and beer this music is fucking wicked.

[slventura]

i;m very sorry he's gone

[boxanova66]

And I'll pull the trigger and make it all go away

And I'll make it all go away, I'll make it all go away

[MrJro2]

Morons moshing to this... Anything for these idiots to hurt one another.

[agtcrew]

One of my favorite blind melon songs and change too.

[11335561]

@TheGothSoul everyone was on acid. i'm on acid. adn ill tell ya what, uhm. wait a minute. was i...was i about to. uhh, can i leave my head here for a minute?

[zarah47]

Beautifuly done shannon..you will always be remembered for your innocent talent

[AttilatheThrilla]

i can see the acid pouring out from his sweat haha awsome

[sosexica]

@AttilatheThrilla Well said my friend, well said!!!

[havokewf90]

this festival and the 1 in 99 were piles of horseshit in comparison to the 1 in 69

[soundrage97]

@havokewf90 awe?hate,hate,hate,boohoo!

[bosco333333]

loading a bowl, clipping my toe nails and listening to this song.

cant get any better

[TheGothSoul]

He was on acid here too ))

[mikebowering24]

the band, the only

[RpFama]

I don't know what he was takin' when he wrote this song, but i want that stuff :)

This is fuckin' AMAZING

[LaSexorcisto3]

He was the real deal.

[eseastrand]

Blind Melon never invoked a mosh feeling in me? Thanks Shannon, you walkith amongst us.

[eseastrand]

Blind Melon invoked a mosh feeling in me. Thank you Shannon, you walkith amongst us.

[gigislice08]

shannon coulda worn my dress anyday. loves blind melon and shannon hoon

[sosexica]

The thirteen people who didnt like this are obviously idiots or maybe teenagers!

[peppersonstage]

@sosexica im 16... and I really love blind melon.

[sosexica]

@peppersonstage That's really awesome!!!!

[peppersonstage]

@sosexica and im jealous of you because you were a teenager at these times

[HanoverFist247]

@peppersonstage was in my 20's during this and loved alot. i look back at these and remember how much we had.

[sosexica]

@peppersonstage Yeah, I understand what ur sayin. I liked Blind Melon at that time...Always have I guess. I didn't appreciate them or their music like I do now. That sucks!! But then, I didnt love music period as I do now days. Words can't describe what I would give to have seen them live with Shannon just one time. He's the greatest in my eyes and always will be. I dont care how strung out or messed up he supposedly was, nor do I care what anyone thinks/thought of him! I love Blind Melon!

[poopchute23]

this makes me feel so good

[1m2a3t4t5]

what is he wearing?

[robin14669]

@1m2a3t4t5 He's wearing is girlfriends dress.
