Mt. Pleasant, 5/2
Seventh time seeing Staind, and probaly one of the two best performances. Hoobastank was a good opener, although the crowd sucked for them. You could tell everyone was there for Staind, and half of the people didn't know who Hoobastank was (until they played The Reason). In fact, during the second song, I looked at my wife, and then the rest of the crowd, and realized we were pretty much the only people standing. Then, after the song, the band called out the crowd and told them to stand up, and it was good from there on out.
Staind came out and played a really strong set.
Suffocate
Falling
Fade
The Way I Am
Just Go
So Far Away
Right Here
Pardon Me
Epiphany (Aaron solo acoustic)
For You
Blow Away
Outside
Spleen
Believe
It's Been A While
Mudshovel
Aaron came out after Mudshovel to do Intro w/ no mike or amp, but the crowd wouldn't shut up. I was only about 40 feet from him when he tried to play it, and it looked like he was lip synching because the crowd was so loud. He left the stage and looked pretty pissed. Oh well, it would have been a great ending, but it didn't take away from the rest of the performance. Was suprised they didn't play the current single, All I Want, but was great to hear Blow Away and Spleen.

Jeremy, Thanks for posting the Set List. Show was incredible! Didn't they also play "Everything Changes"?

So what was the song that he was trying to do??? I was so irritated that the crowd would not shut up. Aaron was pissed, and I really don't blame him.

Thanks for postin' this! Pretty sweet setlist. Glad to see The Way I Am thrown into the mix. All I Want was a real fizzler for U.S. radio, it was a big disappointment. This Is It began regular rotation last week - wonder if they'll perform that song live at all. If they do, I hope Aaron doesn't f-up his vox on the chorus - he'll need some help from old school.

Red-Don't remember Everything Changes, but I did have a few in me.
Tina-He was trying to do Intro. Look it up on YouTube. He does it really good when everyone shuts up.

They didn't play everything changes. I'm pretty sure the set list posted is correct. It sure was an amazing show, considering it was at Soaring Eagle. Most of yall prolly went last time it was there (a year ago or maybe a bit longer) and what a difference. I'm not a roadie and I don't follow Staind across the US, but if they come to MI then I usually make it to the show. The concert a year ago sounded horrible, security was dicks, and it might have been one of the worst performances I've ever saw they have. This time, one of the best show (that I've saw) they have ever put on. The ending made me sick, as most real fans would say. A few assholes ruins it for all.
