Shinedown visits Dallas, Texas

Well, Grand Prairie to be exact. They put on a high energy show, the band works like one instrument, they have obviously been working together for quite a while...the singer, Brent Smith, a passionate front man with real vocal chops. His vocals are raw, real and not a product of any vocal coaching. He has that amazing ability to throw out sound of massive magnitude. I have been intrigued by this band. I think one of the reasons is he reminded me of one of my past favorite hard rockers, Kurt Cobain. That raw vocal angst and power. He does a great rendition of U2's "One" on the video link from "Stripped"
