More Carnival of Madness Ticket Giveaways

A friend of mine had me listen to you when you first came out and I was hooked. I have heard several live tracks both acoustic and electric, but have never been able to experience you in person. Like many others I am on unemeployment and just can't afford to go. I would be ecstatic if I won tickets to Mansfield.You guys are incredible and I know it would be a great show. Plus, what better show than Shinedown to get some frustration out and enjoy great music. Thanks, Teresa

i would love a ticket for mansfield! its my son's birthday on 8/1 and he passed away on 8/7. it would be great to hear the song the crow and the butterfly live! see shinedown in Lewiston ME, Ottawa, and montreal. they are great!

I live in NJ would love to see you guys I already seen you once before in NYC I was totally blown away but I am currently unemployed and really can't afford to be spending to much money right now .When I saw Homdel on the list of Carnival of Madness tour I was excited and bummed at the same time I am hoping to figure someway of getting there . Thanks Brian (NJ)

This wold be my first Shinedown concert, i would love to see you guys blow the roof off of Columbia Maryland. I used to hit a bunch of concerts a year, but life changes, and my concert days are behind me. Help me change that. I have become a huge fan over the last few years, hell i have damn near wore out all my shinedown cds. I'm a huge skynyrd fan and was hesitant at first when i heard you guys were redoing simple man but you did an amazing job, i love it almost as much as the original. Not many good things have happened to my wife and i in the last few years, wiinning some tickets to rock out to you guys may be just the ticket to turn that bad luck around. Well what else can i say i can talk shit all day and boo hoo, but i just really want to see you guys play. I am about 2 1/2 hours from the columbia show, but will walk there if i have too, Please Please Please, shit now look at me i have lowered myself to begging. I need to get off of here and get drunk. See you at the show.

My very first shinedown concert was in april in asheville nc. Now i've always was a big fan but never seen yall live well let me tell you after the first show i saw i was hooked. Guy's you put on one hell of a show, so then i bought my carnival of maddness tixs and saw yall in simpsonville sc and you were so much better. Not that yall wasen't great the first time cause yall were. But to make my trip from asheville nc to sc i was so excited to see yall rock out again. But as i was there with my friend amanda, and we could not figure out were the vip parking was so i stopped right in front were the tour buses were and ask someone. And to my surprise omg there was brent smith walking streight for me.(well he walking back to his bus i guess but he was close)!!! I looked at him and i truned around and asked my friend isen't that brent the singer of shinedown and she said yes it is,and after that day my only dream in my life is to meet and ahve a picture taking with brent smith.and tell him what his words to his song means to me face to face. All i want to say from that day on is thanks guys for singing songs that touch me in so many ways .and with the lost of my mother only 2 yrs ago your music gets me through it and heals my heart alittle bit each day. I don't live near those places that your giving away tixs but if you are giving away anywere in sc ,nc, tenn or any place were i can drive i'll go cause all i ever wanted is to meet yall and see yall concert in the 1st row...thanks your biggest fan stephanie duarte

You guys rock so much. I love you guys soooo much. you have inspired me so much. i am going to star playing electric guitar to be in a rock band. My favorite new song is The Crow and The Butterfly. its amazing. your song, Second Chance, made me tear up the first time i heard it because my brother was hit by a car last year and had to get life lined and was in the hospital for 12 days. He had a miraculous recovery. the medical staff couldnt believe it. He definitely had a second chance on life. I have been wanting to go to one of your concerts for a while now. And i was going to go to the one coming up in PA, but im going to be down in New Orleans to help katrina victims. So i would be estatic if i won free tickets to one of your concerts in the Northeast!! I love you guys :)

I am the biggest fan out there !!! I am 47 years old and listen to the Shinedown cd's everyday to and from work. I watch every video I can and can't wait for a new dvd. We last saw the band at Power Plant live in Baltimore, Md. when our son was 11. We could not get close enough. Then last year we went to the Raven kick off party and could not even get in. I have had terrible luck !!!! Anyway, I would LOVE to win some tickets to the Columbia, MD show but if not I will still be there on the lawn !!!! I love Brent and the guys. Keep rockin my butt off !!!!! Kellie

I think my sister and I should win the tix in Columbia MD because. We had And really tough past 10 years or so. My sis has been suffering from Lyme Disease turning those years. Which also has led to other illnesses such as Neuro Endocrine Disorder (Endocrine tumors) P.I.D.D. (Primary immune deficiency Disorder) endometriosis and lupus. She just had a Doctor's appt. a week or so ago. She didn't get very good news. They told her the endometriosis has spread to the bone in her hip and leg. She pretty much wheelchair bound if she leaves the house. She is really going down hill. I can tell she's starting to lose hope. And all she's ever been her whole life is a fighter. In the past 2 years her sicknesses have advance, Her Dog died, her cat, died, and her horse died. I know sounds like a country song right. My Sister has always been an animal person we as a family share special bounds with our pets but especially my sis. I tease her and call her Saint Francis. haha But now a days it's tough to keep smiling. Last year we saw Shinedown and it was a great bonding experience for us both. We've always been close but we're closer now then ever. I just want to see the same smile on her face I saw last year. One way or another Rock that house guys We LOVE YA!

I should win tix to see Carnival of Madness in Columbia, Md because I live in delaware and nothing good music wise ever happens here. I also have 3 kids that are driving me crazy and i can't wait for school to start. :) But mainly because I LOVE Shinedown. And the other bands on the bill. I need to have some fun. if I can't party with them, I might as well party near them.

Yes I want to win a pair of tickets to the Homdel NJ show. Why? Because I ROCK just like SHINEDOWN!!! and I also got my SHINE ON everyday!!!!

I would love to see Shinedown in concert! I HAVE NEVER BEEN TO A CONCERT!!! and Im 27 years old. Shinedown is my favorite band and where better to start than to see them. Please pick me to go to the Columbia MD concert. And it would be a great belated birthday present especially since I had a crappy birthday this year. Please pick me!

I have been following Shinedown since they used to open for 3 Doors Down...now they are the opener! You guys are awesome and have gotten me through bad and good times...thank you!

Dont know if this hing takes a few minutes to show up but me and my 5 year old son would love to see you guys in Columbia MD. You need the kids to keep the music alive. He absolutely loves you guys and wants to become a rockstar someday. He plays the drums at home and he loves to be inspired by different musicians. Went to the last show with Halestorm and Staind and we had really bad seats, so we couldnt see much. Hope you pick us. We would greatly appreciate it! Ihave my fingers crossed.

I love Shinedown! I have a full-time job, 2 kids and a husband. Shinedown lets me get away from it all. Shinedown lets me escape. I need an escape! Thanks :) Keep the music coming!

This past x-mas I got tix to the D.C. show for my 9 yr olds 1st concert. She let her devil horns fly the entire night and had a blast. Zach was gracious when he threw her a pick during thier set and then to come say hi and take a picture with her. Truly a great way to be a rockstar and make her night. Unfortunately I broke my foot on the job and have been out of work for awhile and wasn't able to get tix this time around. The show is two days after my birthday and it would make for a great gift. The chance to see a really classy band. Keep up the good work and I will keep listening! And make sure to stop in at the 98 rock studios I love hearing you guys with mickey and amelia!
