Now that Summer is behind us, we figured it would be a good time to
let you in on our pick for favorite show. We brought in our friend
Kayla, DJ on Sirius XM Octane, to help us decide. After all, going to
concerts is her job! Without furher ado:
“My pick for the best summer concert was the one I had to wait for
all summer long, Stimulate This! tour featuring Staind, Shinedown,
Chevelle and Halestorm. I ended up going to the Philadelphia show at
Penn’s Landing which was the 2nd to last date of the tour. Every band
put on one hell of a performance. Halestorm opened up and Lzzy sang her
heart out & the band was dead on feeding off a wild crowd. Up next
was Chevelle who always has a solid live show. I got to hear some of
the new songs which sound amazing live. Shinedown never seems to
disappoint as Brent commanded a roaring crowd. Man, were the fans loud!
Haha… and I love watching Brent and Zach interact on stage, it’s like
they’re making love. Staind closed up the show as I watched from the
side of the stage. It’s amazing to watch from that perspective as the
packed crowd sang along to them. After the show, to close out the tour,
the bands put together an “Epic BBQ.” They brought in a DJ, dancers,
clowns & grills and I was able to dance & drink up with all of
them for the perfect way to finish out the summer. I thank Staind for
putting together this tour cause it was definitely the best one yet!”
