[color=green][/color]Shinedown was on the show the next night for about 10 seconds .... showed video clip said they visited a radio station in NY and Brent said "this (album?tour?) is big" and that's about it

[quote="deaf_angel"][quote="stephenmukI saw Disturbed in Orlando in May and at the Download Festival in June, both times they were great. The Mayhem Festival has got a cracking line-up Black Tide, Airbourne and Five Finger Death Punch are all worth a look :D[/quote]

that's cool you got to see disturbed stateside, did they tour london on their last trip? when i saw them in april ffdp opened (they're excellent live, btw) then it was all disturbed :)
mayhem should be good, sweet lineup but i'm really going to see disturbed, got some vip tix so maybe (hopefully!) i'll get to meet them and have a chance to shake dan donegan's hand.[/quote]

[quote="deaf_angel"]yeah, i hope they do tour there for ya, their live show is truly the best i've seen from any band in recent years...and i get to see a lot of bands!

disturbed is kicking ass on this tour. i saw them in april and will see them again on the mayhem tour later this month. their new album is smokin' sick!!![/quote]

I've seen them a couple of times, but in either support or festival slots so I've only seen short sets, but I've always been blown away by them.

that blows!!!!!!!!!

nope

[quote="stephenmuk"][quote="deaf_angel"]so just curious...how well is the band known in england?
how did you first hear them?[/quote]

I just hope that they manage to play some dates here, either in small venues or as part of larger tours. Disturbed, 3 Doors Down and Alter Bridge are all due to tour in the Autumn. Their US tour opening act Black Stone Cherry are going down very well here and are playing mid-sized venues in December so that could be another opportunity for Shinedown to play here.[/quote]

They are pretty much totally unknown here - As far as I'm aware they have played about 3 dates on an Alter Bridge tour back in '06 in the UK and the albums haven't even been released.

The small handful of British people that I've read about online who know who Shinedown are have nearly all found them on WJRR in Orlando because that is our Number 1 long haul vacation destination. I first got into them whilst on vacation there in '03 because they were being heavily played on shows like The Fiasco and The Buckethead show.

yeah, i was thinking the same thing. not exactly a show i'd expect, or even [i]want[/i], to see shinedown on!

Thanks for looking - I wonder why they thought they'd be on?
