I just thought I would give my thoughts on the Orlando show last night at HOB. We got to the HOB at around 5:30 to wait in line and there was a decent crowd already. We thought that the doors opened at 6 but it didn't look like they let everyone in until around 6:20 or so. We had a pretty good spot on the lower level behind the DJ booth, so pretty good view. This was my first time seeing Shinedown live and I was very impressed.

I thought the guys rocked!! There was plenty of interaction with the crowd and the band seemed to love the energy of the crowd also. After finally getting to see these guys I was not disappointed. I thought they sounded great live. Also I don't know if it was just me and my buddy but we thought that Brent looked allot like a young Ozzy on stage, with the eye makeup and the way he is all wide eyed on stage, not that this is a bad thing, just a personal opinion.

The new material sounded good and I can't wait to hear the new album when it comes out. All in all this was a great show, this was my first time seeing them live but it defiantly won't be the last.

Once again you guys Rock.This was my second time seeing the guys at House of Blues here in Orlando. Barry, if you read this man you need a haircut.Haha. The guys at Sam ash told me to tell you that.Anyway,your still the best show I have gone too.I love you guys and Rock on.
