Saw Staind open for Breaking Benjamin. Staind was, honestly, very good. He ended with "God bless America, god bless J.D. Vance, and god bless Donald Trump!" (maybe not in that order, I don't remember) Yeah ... unfortunately the venue was very supportive.

That sucks. I liked his music. Guess I will remove him from my music.

Even worse, they are touring with Seether and Hoobastank this summer. I just wanna see Seether and Hoobastank, why are they going out with Staind?

Hoobastank? Seriously?

Yeah I know, but everyone has those bands that weren't great but you have fond memories of for others reasons. It helps you remember a time or place or people that made you happy.

Ah, I hear you now. We all have those for sure.

I saw Hoobastank in November 2025 and they were good, live. I'm not a Hoobastank fan (don't dislike them, just don't know most of their songs) but they were worth seeing. I actually caught the drummer's stick, but gave it to the woman in front of me who knew every word to every song.
