Hey guys!

First of all we would like to thank all of you for the love that you have been showing us lately. The audiences that we have been playing for this year have been absolutely overwhelming! It has truly been an honor to see all of your faces out there in the crowd. I have to say, we are so damn excited to see what the rest of the year is going to be like! We will be hitting the entire US again and will be making at least one more return trip to the UK and Europe. So, keep an eye on our concerts page to see when we will be near you!

Secondly, we need your help. Our video for Second Chance is currently in the running to be on the VH-1 Top 20 Countdown! It would be great if all of you could do us a huge favor while you are myspacing and checking your e-mails, and head over to VH-1.com and vote for Shinedown! Your support has pushed the song up the Top 40 and Rock charts. Now you all could be responsible for getting us in the Top 20 on VH-1! Thanks so much everyone. We wouldn't be here without you guys, and we appreciate your continued love and support!

I recently attended your concert in Rapid City South Dakota,(I'm from Minnesota) and having never been to a rock concert let me tell you I'm sold!!!! I'm almost 50 and completely transformed I love your music!! Attending your concert was the change I needed in my life what a blast. But i truely am sending this to THANK YOU!! At that concert people in the front row on the floor were being crushed and you had them all take 6 steps back and then proceded to hand water out to the concert goes I was so Impressed and just wanted to let you know how awesome that was. In alot of the blogs you write about how thoughtful your fans are but you guys are just as thoughtful and greatly appreciated for that. Hats off to you all!!! Keep up all the great work! Love it!

Submitted By: Melissa\n\nWell, Sir, Just dropping by to say hello... I met you in Nashville and partied with you and a couple of your friends. We stayed in the same hotel and I was on a "moving" road trip from Fl. to MO. You told me to check you guys out at "Rock Fest". Well when I got there, all the tickets were sold out the second day they were on sale. I didn't get to watch the concert, I was mad that I didn't ask for tickets. Anyway I see you guys will be performing at the State Fair, I definately want to attend that show, who knows maybe we will run into each other again. Anyway, if you remember give me a shout. Until then, Take Care and will see ya at the Fair.

Submitted By: Anna\n\nno offense, Eric, but in your picture on this web site, you (sort of) look like you just woke up...and I don't know why I'm saying this, but after my mom and I saw you guys up in cleveland, she started making fun of you...which I thought she was pretty stupid for doing that...

Submitted By: marika\n\nHello Eric, Hopefully you are feeling better now! I want to thank you again for taking the time to come over to us at Pinkpop (The Netherlands). I was so overwhelmed that I didn't know what to say anymore. I just want to say that you Shinedowners really rock and the four of you are really great musicians. My daughters (the two tall ones who were with me) are really great fans of you and they still can't believe that they really shook hands with you! But...we have the photo's to prove it. Thanks again and hopefully the next time (if there is any chance of meeting you) I can make normal conversation. By the way, I know that you are just normal people like us, but it is very special to see you perform on stage, and afterwards people can just talk tot you. I must say that the four of you are very down to earth!!! Well, enough talk!! Hopefully we see you soon perform on another gig in Holland!!! We shurely be there!!

Submitted By: Fallynn\n\nI had the amazing opportunity to see you play last night at Wing Ding at the Rockford Airport. I've been a fan of Shinedown since the beginning. Eric, you've definitely added to the greatness of the band! Of all the bands I've seen live, you are most definitely one of the greatest I've seen! Maybe even THE greatest! I already can't wait to see you again!! Oh, did I mention, I LOVE your hair Eric!!

Submitted By: Ashley\n\nI have to say THANK YOU!!! I recently had the pleasure of seeing you guys perform live for my first time in Johnson City, TN. I was completely blown away by your performance! (truthfully "blown way" does not really express my feelings; but I don't really think there is a word or phrase that can) Thank you for proving that great bands can perform great shows if they choose to. Already a fan of your music, I'm now an even bigger fan and I find myself with a deeper appreciation for what a truly talented band is! Thanks again!!

Submitted By: James\n\nI agree with Bennington, most of the artists on that list blow, big time. There's no competition at all; Shinedown RULES! I may actually watch VH-1 again if they started playing Shinedown. I love the new SoM video!!

Submitted By: Kelly\n\nI first saw you guys in Columbus in November and I was blown away. Then you graced me with your presence in my own town of Rochester, NY and were totally amazing. I already have my Rock on the Range tickets and can't wait to see ya back in Columbus. You guys are worth the road trip!!

Submitted By: MayhemNikkole\n\nI just wanted to thank you guys for putting on the best show Ive ever been to at the NORVA in Norfolk VA on Wednesday. I loved the way you involved the crowd and your words moved so many people. Most bands just come and play and leave but you get involved. I was deeply touched by the story about you and your g-ma before you played 45 and the crowds response by waving lighters and cell phones so that she could see the stars from up there brought me to tears.....THANK YOU for such an awesome performance!
