COINCIDENCE? Yeah probably lol, I just found it interesting. Also I know celebrities are often going to appeal to a younger audience, and they’ll seem younger anyway (for example MJ, Prince and Madonna appealed to Gen X but they themselves were obviously Boomers), but even without that, all three of these grunge stars seem quintessential early Xers.

The late lead singer of 90s alt-rock sensation Blind Melon carried a camcorder with him for the last five years of his life. He filmed everything around him, from his band's meteoric rise to fame, to cultural milestones of the day like the LA riots, the birth of his daughter, and his struggles with addiction. He only stopped filming a few hours before his untimely death at age 28. It's taken several years to create ALL I CAN SAY, and it's available now to rent via Virtual Cinemas at allicansay.oscilloscope.net. Also, Blind Melon is making new music! You can find that at the band's youtube page. Thanks for coming and we're excited to chat!
