What was the best Staind show you went to and Why?

I know this is a very hard question, but what show sticks out in your head more then others?

I would have to say July 3rd 2007 at the Borgata, why? cause on the way Ramona and I were jammin out to Staind and kept saying wow imagine if they played this? All the songs that we were like nah they won't play it, they fuckin did. We were so fuckin stoked it was the best show ever.

Staind August 9th 2005 Boston. The release of Chapter 5, there were 10 thousand people there if i can remember right . It was like the whole city was taken over. they played a decent set for a free show and it was the first time i actually met all of them together.

Dude, it was my first time meeting the band too. That show was the SHIT. I almost forgot about that show.... there were no openers, it was just Staind, it was awesome. I remember the show started kinda late. Anyone who had a Dysfunctional Fan Club card was able to get in the M&G line for the band. I remember these dudes kept offering me twenty bucks and crap to borrow my card to get in the line. Maybe it was the goody too-shoe in me, but I met them halfway 'cause I didn't want my card to get revoked or any BS like that, so I offered to grab w/e it was they wanted to get signed and have it signed for them. Some dude brought the newspaper article that said Staind would be doing that show and wanted it signed, so I got that signed for him. The other dude didn't have anything except for his license.... and... well... I got that signed for him! I remember either Aaron or ol' school gave me the Rock's one-eyebrow lift when I asked them to sign a license for me, a license with a picture of a dude who definitely wasn't me.

That was a sick show though. I remember that they taped it. A good portion of the performances are up on YouTube if you hunt them down.

Man... 1999-2006..... those were the years where it didn't cost a billion dollars to meet, greet, and rock out with Staind. Now tickets cost $40-$50 to see them and double that if you actually want to meet 'em. Bah, needless to say, it's still worth it.

In my opinion its always the last show i went to. The last time i saw them was in oct 2008 in tulsa oklahoma. i was over an hour late bc i got pulled over and got a ticket. missed the entire pappa roach and was pissed, but when staind hit the stage all was redeemed. i was on the floor near the stage... i picked up two guitar picks off the floor and have a black bra arron was given on stage that he threw out to the crowd. usualy my wife would not appreciate me having other women's underwear, but since it came from my idol she said it was ok. Sean morgan came into the crowd dressed in pink gloves and black glasses and aaron called him a fag... it was hilarious.

That was BAD ASS show. Actually my favorite because it was the first time I met Staind. I also caught a pic and Jon's drum stick. They also played pressure that night which was a nice surprise.

Every Staind show I've been to was awesome, but one that sticks out to me the most was prob when I saw them at hampton beach with three days grace and hurt just because it was an all-around kickass show with all three bands being amazing.

all of them have been absolutely amazing!!! But ... the one that sticks in my mind was at the Aragon Ballroom in Chicago .. 2004 i think .... it was Lo Pro, Sevendust and Staind .... AMAZING show!! But, the part that sticks the most ... I was sitting up in the Mezanine because I just hurt my kneea few weeks before .... I was watching Lo Pro then I see some movement on the next Mezanine right next to me (which was blocked off at the door), I look over and there is Mike and Johnny, sitting there watching the show. I was sooo damn nervous because it was the first time I was ever remotely close to any of them ... I eventually got up the courage to lean over after one of the songs and talk to them and get both of thier autographs .... I was stoked .. and even when I left the concert and my car was towed and had to pay $160.00 to get it out 4 hours later ... I was still on cloud 9 from meeting them ....

I would have to say that my favorite Staind show was at SPAC in Saratoga New York. It was a long trip from Virginia but I got to enjoy the show with my Dad and Fiance. I got to go back stage and meet the band and take pictures with them. I also was able to add one guitar pick (from Aaron Lewis, makes three) and a drum stick (makes two) to my STAIND collection. I met alot of cool people there.

Well Ive only seen them once so far and that was last year May 10 2008 at the DC101 Chili Cook off in Washington DC. They were the last band to play and my personal favorite out of all the bands. But the whole day was awesome Seether, Chevelle, Live, Finger Eleven and Deaf Pedestrians were all there. If I remember correctly I think either finger eleven or seether played a staind song. Im thinkin Ill be changing me favorite concert after I see Staind May 1st in Niagara Falls (cant wait)!!
