Hey everyone..I used to have a login on here but I couldnt remember the info so I had to make a new one. I went to the concert last night at the Delaware State Fair. It was my second time seeing Staind. I saw them in September 2006 in York, PA and got to meet them through Dysfunctional Fanclub. I didnt sign up for fanclub this year so I didnt get to meet them this time around. Awesome concert nonetheless. Every band was really good. A quick band by band breakdown:

Jet Black Stare-

Played from 6-6:30. I was familiar with their set because I bought the cd when it came out on July 15th. I was about the only one there who knew their music. In my opinion they were really good. Mix wasnt very good, and they were louder than the other 3 bands but they were very energetic and played some of the best songs on their album in my opinion. For anyone who is familiar with their music, or wants to be before they see them, their setlist was:

It's Over
I'm Breathing
In This Life
Fly
Poster Princess
Ready To Roll

Hinder-

This was my second time seeing Hinder. I saw them in York, PA last year when they were touring with Papa Roach, Buckcherry and Rev Theory. They were good last time around and didnt dissapoint this time. However, they were really my least favorite of the 4 bands. Austin's talks got very repetitive and I honestly dont think they have anywhere near the talent of Staind or 3DD. They were good..but not as good as JBS, Staind, or 3DD. They played from 6:45-7:25. Their setlist was:

How Long
Homecoming Queen
Heaven Sent You
Better Than Me
Use Me
Room 21
Lips Of An Angel
Get Stoned

Staind:

Like I said earlier, this was my second staind concert. They were very good last time, but I think they were even better this time. For some reason the crowd seemed bored until they played Outside, then everyone got into it. I was into it from the opening riff of Price To Play to the ending screams of Mudshovel. Staind were considerably quieter than Hinder or JBS, and they had a better mix. I dont have much to say, except they were very very good. They played from 7:45-8:45. Their setlist was:

Price To Play
Just Go
Fade
Believe
Falling
Outside
Turn The Page
For You
It's Been Awhile
Right Here
So Far Away
Mudshovel

3 Doors Down:

This was my first 3DD show. I was expecting them to be good..and they definitley didnt dissapoint. Their stage show was very impressive, the videos during the songs were really good, and the lights and pyro were really cool. Their mix was very good also. Theit onstage energy was great, and they played all their songs very well. When I'm Gone is my favorite 3DD song, even after the million times I've heard it, but the live version was just incredible. The energy of 6,000 people yelling at the top of their lungs supporting our troops was something you just have to experience. They were awesome, enough said. They played from 9:05-10:25. Their setlist was:

Train
Kryptonite
Citizen/Soldier
Away From The Sun
Duck And Run
Let Me Go
Be Like That
It's Not Me
Landing In London
The Road I'm On
Let Me Be Myself
Loser
Pages
Here Without You
Behind Those Eyes
------------------------
It's Not My Time
When I'm Gone

All in all, it was an awesome concert, from the very beginning of Jet Black Stare's set to the ending fireworks of When I'm Gone. This tour is not one any fan of Staind should miss.

Thanks for posting this, Steve! Another PA fan here! You gonna be at Hershey a week from tonight? I'm counting the days here!

I actually live in MD, haha I do go to alot of concerts in PA because MD doesnt really have much in the way of concerts. I'd say at least half the concerts I've been to have been in PA. The only amphitheatre in MD is Merriweather Post and that usually doesnt get good shows so I gotta travel to VA, PA, or DE for concerts. Have fun in Hershey, I saw KISS there a few years back...fun concert, Hershey is a nice amphitheatre.

Yeah, I went to this show too. Looks like you def. nailed the setlists. No real surprises at this show. This was my first show this season since they started the new tour up but def will not be my last. I don't know know if you realized it or not but Aaron was sitting on stage with his two oldest daughters and Vanessa during Hinder's set. He's cool as shit man; what a kick ass guy. Other than that it was cool to see Mike using his new PRS guitar and I thought Aaron's voice sounded terrific!
In other news, Street Propaganda has been sending me boxes of shit to pass out at this show including 700 laminates and lanyards the night before! I was supposed to get two tickets to pick up from will call in return for my hard work but when I got there the fucking things WERE NOT THERE! So I had to end up buying two more tickets for my friends that I invited in addition for the ones I bought the day they went on sale. I'm still pissed off about that. Everyone liked the laminates though. Lol, they thought they were backstage passes. hehe, idiots.
later,
