Honestly I didn't even know they were still around.

Our purpose is to unite but we're going to divide by assuming everyone who is playing or attending this concert is a divider.

Performers include:

Here are the performers. I think we’ll be fine without you, whoever you are. 😂😂😂 pic.twitter.com/t4aDWlDECp

That sounds filled with rhetoric that is shockingly anti-Christ.

They have only one boss?

They try to sound sweet and uppity yet are really missing the mark.

Sucks to be a mediocre low level band from 20+ years ago that nobody cares about anymore. Stay in your lane dudes

Is "Shinedown" a musical band?

Never heard of them and only a few from that group of performers.

Band I have never heard of thinks they are so important that we need to clutch our pearls that they don't want to play at a show (that they committed to) because too many people that don't think exactly like they do are playing. Very unifying.

BTW, this is a blatant PR stunt to try to get some people to care about them. I'm betting they get 1000x the attention from this than they ever would have by just being one more band at a concert and that's clearly their strategy. Probably gets them a new deal or two since the music industry is filled with leftists.

Are we supposed to know who this is? And why should we care?

"It's this simple. Rock The Country isn't just a music festival; it's a movement," Kid Rock said in a previous statement. "In 2026, as America celebrates its 250th anniversary, this is a place for hard-working, God-fearing patriots to gather as one and celebrate freedom, music, and the party of the year."

Kid Rock is a lover of Trump.

Whining libs hate Trump, God and America. They are outraged that anybody could play a pro American tour and have torn down some bands from playing due to their nonstop lib whining

This is dumb, About as dumb as Pearl Jam shutting down their online store last Friday as part of some stupid walkout protest. Yeah that'll show the man, by refusing to sell your own product for a whole day.

Shinedown holds the record for the most No. 1 singles on Billboard's Mainstream Rock Airplay chart at 21. Three Days Grace is number 2 with 19

Remember in the 2000's when there were 100+ alternative bands that sounded exactly like the other 99+? Yeah, Shinedown was one of those bands. They didn't produce a single song that made them stand out more than any of the rest.

I thought Mexico left the U.N. or something.

Not sure if this was a number 1, but it was one of their more well known songs.

If you happen to be c/o 2006 and rode an A&M transportation services bus, I promise you've been subjected to a Shinedown song.

Empty virtue signalling. LOL.

They also covered Simple Man, and it sucks.

Second Chance is considered their #1 song and while I won't say it sucks... but it kinda does... does it stick out to you as an all time, memorable great song? Or does it sound exactly like 1000 other songs released in the mid 2000s?

I appreciate entertainers pushing back on woke...but frankly my dear, I don't give a damn.

No, not at all. I was just posting a song that people may have heard because before you edited, you said "for example"(thought it was a question) and there's a bunch of posters on here going "who".

iTunes>Library>Search>Shinedown>Select All>Delete From Library

The difference of opinion was solved!

Sympton of Being Human is a badass song.

That being said, don't be a *****, Shinedown. Never give in to the woke ******s.

Gotcha. And that post was a joke insinuating that Shinedown and Three Days Grace sound alike.

Am I the only one that sees that lineup and thinks they didn't really "fit" with the rest of the bill?

I love Shinedown's music, but honestly, who gives a rip that they pulled out anyway?

I have never heard of them. Not sure how I am going to cope.

My wife has a lot of crap like this on her ipod (yes, she still uses an ipod) and when I said I didn't like Shinedown, Nickleback, Stonesour, Slipknot, etc, she replied "Why not? they sound just like Soundgarden and Metallica and you like them"

I admit to liking the song for its pop appeal but it could just as well have been one of those lame Aerosmith pop songs from the 90s or from some modern rock-styled musical.
According to Wikipedia the song was co-written with Dave Bassett who other hits include Ex's and Oh's by Elle King which is fun, but also Fight Song which I ****ing hate. So net to net F that guy.

Underrated post.

Sounds like they couldn't take the heat from the leftists and just caved instead of standing up with any sort of moral principles.
