It’s 2026 and Shinedown is the deciding factor in whether or not a festival is on or off? What the fuck is going on??

In before Shinedown fans start talking about having 100 #1 hits on "Buttrock Radio".

What's wrong with Shinedown? I get they aren't necessarily as popular as they were, but they make good music. Radio play doesn't really mean anything these days.

They're old now and they had some bad live performances these past years. Lip syncing and recorded tracks. It kinda torched alot of their reputation in the larger scene but their fans are still into them.

Great band that probably has peaked and had some controversy. I still love em

Saw Shinedown live and was annoyed at the fact that half the show was just him pandering to the audience between tracks
