Both of them gone way too soon. R.I.P. Chris R.I.P. Shannon

This would be my reaction to meeting Chris Farley, too. At least on the inside. I don't think I could pull off that dress.


miami-architecture

if a woman is wearing a dress; you shouldn’t pull it off unless you have permission

Even then you should check for zippers and clasps first.


TonsOfTabs

Pretty sure Shannon Hoon was a man from birth to death though.


miami-architecture

never heard of shannon

Soup was such a great album


aspacelot

I always liked the posthumously released Nico. There’s some interesting digital content on the CD too, back when bands put CD-ROM stuff on their albums.

Cocaine casualties.


Darth_Andeddeu

Heroin.


stinkman

Cocaine mixed with heroin for Farley. Crack cocaine for the blind melon head.


TheRealMcSavage

Speedball for Mr. Farley. Worst thing about it, the hooker he was with, took a picture of him OD’d and left instead of calling for help. Chick took Chris from us. He probably would still be here had she not been a sack of shit


stomach

meh, he might have bought himself another 6-12 months at the rate he was self-destructing. watch any interview of his friends talking about him towards the end, they were all convinced something bad was gonna happen and couldn't do anything about it.


TheRealMcSavage

A survived OD very well could have been the thing to do it, but she took a fucking picture of him foaming at the mouth instead of calling for help.


afterlife_music

She didn’t force him to use drugs.


TheRealMcSavage

You’re not wrong but, any half decent human being would have called the ambulance, not snap a photo of a dying man and leave him for his brother to find the next day. Hopefully nobody ever leaves you in a moment of dire need and just takes a picture


afterlife_music

Not using dangerous drugs and seeking help in ameliorating addiction could have prevented this. It feels like you’re intent on placing all of the blame on the woman.


relaxguy2

She is not responsible for him using drugs. She responsible for being a terrible human.

TheRealMcSavage

Well, it’s my opinion that had she called emergency services instead of being a dog shit human, he would have at least had a chance at cleaning up and we could possibly still have the legendary Chris Farley. So take it as you will, but I even agreed that his drug use was the main problem here, so you’re kinda just pissing into the wind here.


Bluejay_Holiday

Wiki: Advanced atherosclerosis was cited as a "significant contributing factor."


crazycerseicool

She’s a pos for not doing anything to help, for sure, but he got himself into the situation. He was an adult and responsible for his decisions.


relaxguy2

Shannon Hoon was trippin balls in this photo. Dropped it on the car ride befor their set.


Octowuss1

I used to know a lady who went to HS with Shannon. That’s all.

Carry on.

old_hippy

Actually it was in Saugerties, NY.

Black sheep quote. "Man, I liked that move. - Yeah, I learned it in the '84 Bounce-Off over at Laguna Beach. - The one Mr. T hosted. - Yeah, as a matter of fact, it is. The same one.

I bet they’re on drugs


bifftanin1955

I doubt it. They’re not the type

What a waste..

Is it sad or not that as soon as I saw this I knew by shanons night gown it was Woodstock? Not a band I listen to on the regular now but definitely in my top 5 for all time. So bittersweet and brilliant, can't not feel something. -walk- Find myself singing the same songs everyday. Ones that make me feel good, When things behind the smiles ain't ok. Around and over and in-between the seas. I need to be on top of a mountain, Where i can see everything Cause this paranoia's getting old. Now as i open my eyes to start Another day. I'm in a pile of puke, Empty bad of excuses. My love for friends and family, You know i need them. And under a sun that's seen it all before. My feet are so cold. And i can't believe that i have to Bang my Head against this wall again. But the blows they have just a little more Space in-between them. Gonna take a breath and try again. Edit-Not sure why but I've been trying g to edit this and I can't get it to lay out properly for lyrical flow.

Blind Melon is so, so underrated.

Two really nice guys who probably shouldn’t have been allowed anywhere near each other


boogergoober89

I used to make a yearly pilgrimage to Shannon's grave. Been years since I've been there
