Well crap there's a Meijer about 10 minutes from me.... That would be great if they had them, but I'm not sure they would sell tickets for a concert at the Michigan State Fair??
I'm going to try not to think about it and hope that someone calls back tomorrow or replies to the e-mail I just sent. When I called the actual ticket broker thinking there was a problem with the website, they said that anything from row 11 and higher was still available. I know that I'm spoiled, but that would still be a pretty good seat. I'm going to keep my fingers crossed and try again in the am.
Jess is freaking out about the drive tomorrow afternoon. We need to talk her down off the ledge!!

Hope you're able to get tickets somehow Sheri... Guess I shoulda posted this thread sooner huh? I just s them in wisconsin at the end of july and they played new stuff and of course the old stuff. It was amaaaazing!! My friend Zach is their new bassist, so drop by and tell him HI from me =) Im going to probably hit up the concert in Sauget, IL (10 mins from ST. Louis) on Sunday if I can! GO CHECK THEM OUT, you will NOT be disappointed!! w thats cool that you're friends with Zach! Love that guy! He fits in so well as their new basist. My show tonight was esome of course! Haha a memorable moment was when Brent got the crowd all pumped up talkin about frustration and askin, "who's been pissed off by someone this week?" And then getting the crowd to chant, "1, 2, F*ck you!" over and over...lol And then on a sadder note, telling us the news that Sean Morgan (lead singer of Seether) just lost his brother 3 days ago. As friends of Seether, he then dedicated "Shed some Light" to him. But yeah, both Deepfield and Operator rocked! I just hate myself for not bringing in a damn camera. I figured theyd snatch it from me if i did, but turns out lots of people had em and they didnt do anything about it..figures. lol At least i got a few pics on my cell phone though... Whoever is able to make the next upcoming shows, have a good time!!

Just started listening to US and Them. Will continue after this Projekt Revolution show is over. **Nat** I personally prefer their first album "Leave A whipsper" to "Us and Them" but thats just me... They're are some good songs on the 2nd one though.

Not only does he have the perfect voice for it, but like you said...the dedication to Dimebag makes it really special.

I get emotional with Simple Man also. The funny thing was I never knew it was a cover and when I heard the original version by Skynard, I thought Shinedown's version blew it out of the water!!
Worse case scenario and I can't get a ticket over the phone, I'm going to go anyway and take my chances. Even if I don't "see" them, there's nothing like listening to them live which I'll be able to do by just buying admission to the fair. Who knows, maybe hear some new stuff?

Not that I'm not always a nice person, but sometimes it pays to be just a little nicer!!! Got an e-mail from the box office indicating tickets will be available for walk up purchase after 4:00 on Friday. I'll be the first to admit that I'M SPOILED, thanks in part to my Hinder and Nickelback boys!!
Couldn't take a chance on a walk-up, so I called the person that sent the e-mail. She made a special trip downstairs and I now have a ticket for the 5th row for tomorrow night's show for $10.00!! She actually called me back with the name of someone to talk to if I have any problems!
What's that old adage, you get more with honey than vinegar??

Im so happy for you! $10 for 5th row? Thats one helluva bargain! lol Have a good time! You should definitley hear a couple new songs. Oh, and I also think Shinedown's cover of simple man is just as good if not better thatn Skynards. You just cant beat that voice of Brent's...
