    No Shinedown shows are anywhere near me and I can't drive since I'm only 15. I want to see them again sooo bad but the closest they come to Albany is Massachusettes.... 3 hours away.... No chance of convincing my dad of that one... Anyone else have same/similar problem? :(

If you have a job maybe if you offer to pay for the gas he will drive you.

I tried that, but he just don't want the trip.... one of the locations is near his family so i even tried using the we could visit them while we go, but that didnt work either......

I can't go either cause they're not doing a carnival of madness in Europe :(

well on the bright side Sd loves to tour. so if you don't get to catch them on this tour then perhaps you'll catch them on the next. after the COM tour they are going to do an acoustic tour so perhaps you will get the chance to catch them a city closer to you.

what i did to convince my mother to drive me to the closest venue which was two hours was that i would pay for a room to stay the night in, pay for gas, and pay half of food expenses.

does anyone know what cities they will be touring for their acoustic tour? I think it would be amazing to see an acoustic set by shinedown.

no problem my pleasure. by the way kristen I wanted to say I really like your signature sorry I hadn't said it before. Carried away is an awesome song whenever I feel so fed up with the things going on with school and work and life I put that song on in the ipod and just escape to my Sd world.

thanks and yeah me too.... like my dad and I were fighting last night cuz he keeps dropping my schedule to fit my little brother's.... and then he said i listen to the song too much before it finished once.... and all i had to say was either he listens to the song or my blow out.... he chose the song and hasnt spoken a word to me since....

i don't believe anyone should ever discourage someone from listening to a certain song over and over. for some reason certain lyrics or music notes really touch us deep inside for someone to discourage that is wrong in my opinion.

I am stoked to see that you get to see SD because you are an avid fan. I would keep checking websites for venues in your area. I found out SD is coming to a festival near me (XFEST 15 Dayton) and it's not on their tour list. Never know, you might get lucky. They seem to like the Midwest and East Coast. If anyone knows of any other shows, pass em' on eh?
