I was a little disappointed they didn't play Crow and the Butterfly, but oh well. It was a good show.
They played a song I haven't heard with just vocals and keys. I think it went like, I wish i knew you better, I wish I knew you at all. Anyone know what that was?
This was my first Shinedown show and it was freaking awesome!!! I've been a fan for a while but I worry about going to concerts because I'm usually afraid that someone won't sound so great live. That wasn't a problem last night! My husband & I had an awesome time!
At first I was worried because when we got to our seats they were blocked off and the guy told us we could either go into the pit or go get out money back. I'm barely 5' and the pit was alredy full so I was afraid I wouldn't see a thing. Thankfully some people let us work our way towards the front and I got to see the entire thing. I was SUPER excited to get to watch Barry play!!!
We can't wait for the next tour to start. We may as well start saving money now because we will be taking some road trips.
We got to meet all of the guys after the show so that made it even more awesome. They were all great but Brent & Barry were especially awesome. I can't believe how sweet they were and how appreciative they are of their fans.
These guys have really got it going on!

This was also my first Shinedown concert, and as good as is was, because it was really good i felt it could have been better. I feel if they would have shortened some of thier opening acts they would have had time to play some songs i really needed to hear. The bunny rabit... i didnt find funny or cute personally, i thought they could have done without it. My favorite Shinedown song ever is "Burning Bright" which was not on the set last night which was very frustrating. I also wanted to hear "I dare you". I was happy though that they played "Left Out". So they said the reason they had to stop was because of the noise curfew, but if they would have cut out the all the time dedicated to the bunnys and shortened some of there openeing acts they would have time to play some of there songs they needed to play. Im not saying Brent should talk, i love Brents talking and i feel like Shinedown themselves did an amazing job i give it a 8/10
I think because last night was the last night of the tour things got a little "crazy" for them. Brent even apologized to us for it so I don't think they intended for all of that to happen.
What I don't get is why a town has a curfew like that on a freaking Saturday night. Come on people! At least make it a lot later.

i'm going to have nightmares about bunnies and chickens. and yeah, the short set kinda sucked. but the outdoor venue did wonders for the sound quality over amos's.

I have some videos, but youtube is sucking right now. They aren't the best quality anyway. It's really hard to keep the camera still with one hand and fist pump/stomp/jump up and down screaming like a schoolgirl at the same time. And there's some pretty horrendus crowd singing in spots. I don't think it's me, but I can't be sure :P Otherwise the sound is good at least.

Cool show! I loved it. We hung around for a while after the show but Brent hadn't come out yet. Apparently he did after we left. Bummer! I got to talk to the rest of them and the guys from Adelita's Way so it was a good night, correction, it was a GREAT night!
