well my prayers were finally answered... sorta. Shinedown is coming bak to MS, but with my incredibly awful luck, i have to leave on a family trip to florida on the day you guys are supposed to play. my friend is going to try to at least get an autograph if yall are doing so after the show. however, one of my friends is in the bands playing with yall that day, and my friend knows the lead singer for another band playing. im currently contacting my friend, and seeing if he can ask you guys for an autograph backstage. however i dont know if he will be able to..

if i could get an autograph from brent or from anyone else in the band, it would mean the whole world and more to me. it would be better than getting to see you guys in concert. i ask that you please try and open an autograph booth after the show, or accept my friends request if he decides to ask yall. i have been such a fan of yours from the very beginning, and this would make something amazing out of something bad. thank you for your time to read this message, and i look forward to the new album.

your fan,
Brett

Man, that bites. Whenever you guys come even remotely close to where I live, I have to be 21 or older to see you in concert. That just makes me so @#$%! angry!!!
