Cindy

I really don't understand why some people have to be like this....

There are some people out there right now that feel the need to knock down what they believe the Staind family is. But there is no family per say. It's a group of friends that have know each other for some time and go to shows together. Some of the nicest people I have had the honor to meet. You need no special invitation to be a part of it. Anyone and everyone is very welcome. I really don't know who did what to some of you. But it's time to get off the soapbox and stop making up stuff to maybe I don't know make yourselves feel bigger? I have been nothing but nice and welcoming to any new people I meet. We all have the same love/ it's the band Staind. It's helped us thru so much. That is one thing so many of us can identify with.

I am so tired of some of you making it into a competition or the need to attack people who you feel got something maybe you wanted. Why does it have to be like that? I really don't get it. Please be grown ups if you have a beef with someone talk to them. So many times it's a misunderstanding. I see no one thinking they are better than anyone else.. other than the ones trying to start the problems.

I envy you guys so much, here in Denmark where i am from we are not many Staind fans, so we can't really have a "Staind Family" like you. I would love to live in the states, so i could see Staind much more often. Staind has been in Denmark 4 times, and when i think of how intimate the concerts are i think its amazing that they bother coming to Denmark. The last concert in Århus, Jutland, only 400 people showed up! sooo i think i speak for a few others when i say, we want your Staind Family!

Well first off Justin this was never aimed at you at all! And I have not been on anyone's pages/ and read any comments. It was brought to me.

Frankie I agree with some of what you said. But this is not part of the problem. I am not sitting in any ivory tower, thinking I am better than anyone. I am not trying to start drama. I am not making snide comments just hoping to start any drama. I am showing my face here, I am not hiding I am simply saying take the beef up with who you are upset with/ then get over it.

I could care less what anyone thinks of me. I know my friends and Aaron know who the real me is, and I am ok with that! I have a heart of gold and would do anything for anyone in need. When I have a beef with someone I confront it , I don't act like a child and post things just to start drama. My post was simply to give the people who feel the need to be childish from their ivory towers to confront whoever I guess they feel they need to / so they can get over the BS they have made up in their head to believe they have been done wrong.

And lefty you are never gonna let me forget about the concert Tuesday night are you??? LOL h

You're such a sweetheart Cindy... I think some people simply dont understand. I'm so sorry for them. They're missing the chance to get to know something (and someone) very special.

aww Milla the feeling is 100% mutual. No worries no one was attacking me per say. Just the Staind family, or what they think it is. Just the same old sad story. How are you my love? I miss you so much. I hope we can talk to you soon!!!

I knew this blog wasn't meant for me..I haven't done anything. Honestly, I'm going through real tough times right now, and I'm just looking for peace and I don't want to EVER be known as a Staind fan basher in the eyes of my friends or haters-hence my white flag comment.

Hey Frankie we are cool! I didn't expect alot of you to know what this was about. Well if you are the lucky ones you don't. This thread was put out there soley only for the one trying to start trouble. A chance given to maybe be grown up and settle their beef with whomever finally.


Bully's can't be ignored.. sometimes you have to stand up and say... you ain't gonna steal my lunch money anymore. So get over yourself. Not every thread is meant for everyone. And everyone doesn't have to get anything. The true harm here is that someone feels the need to attack a group that has done nothing wrong to them. That is the pointles part.

Justin white flags are good.

Cin...my love, you are just two nice....and what more could you expect from a group of people with just one similar interest....all that matters is that you and I know who the "real people"are.......and if you haven't figured out everyone already, true colors will always shine...when people are jealous, greedy and in it for just one reason!!! Love you girl!!!

Hey,
I can honestly say Kevin and I felt right at home last weekend when we finally met all of you face to face (Tony, Rosie, Cindy, Cindi, Craig and Lefty). We hit it off with all of you and feel like a part of the Staind family, - Not to mention meeting Aaron and the band and they were just as nice and welcoming. Seriously - Aaron got down on his knees to meet with little kids. That's so friggen cool. It shows what a great person he really is. Its great to meet people with the same interests and are not out to judge, or compete with each other. Its a shame that their are people like that out there - but so glad that we found the right group to hang out with - genuine people there for the right reasons - to support Staind!

I like Staind people.

I've met Lisa, Raina, Cindy, Tony, Otan, and a few others, and all have been first class folk, even though I may have come on like a bit of a prick early on...

I hope to remain in such good company, and to the haters, buzz off.

Absolutely!! We will be at every Philly show...and as many as we can in other states! We are hooked! It is great to meet such great people!
