STAIND, SHINEDOWN, CHEVELLE AND HALESTORM DELIVER ROCK FANS THEIR OWN BAIL-OUT;
U.S. TOUR
KICKS OFF JULY 1 IN PEORIA, IL, FEATURING DISCOUNTED TICKET PRICES AND LOCAL VALUE ADD-INS FOR TICKETHOLDERS
Hard
rock mavens Staind, Shinedown, Chevelle and Halestorm will be teaming up this summer for the “Stimulate This!”
tour, a four-band bill designed to offer fans maximum value at a minimal price.
Making its way across the U.S.
beginning July 1 and extending through early September, the “Stimulate This!” tour will hit more than 40 U.S.
markets, including some of the hardest hit by the recession. In a show of solidarity for their fans, the four bands have worked
closely with the concert promoters to create a package of exceptional value for ticket buyers. Through their collective efforts,
they’ve been able to maintain modest base ticket prices that remain mostly under $40 each - half the cost of comparable
multi-band summer tour packages - with some venues offering lawn seats for less than $10. Additionally, each tour stop will
include special promotions for ticket holders that will vary from market to market, but could include discounts on concessions
at the venue during the show, store discounts at local retailers, and online rebates for band merchandise to name a few.
“Wall Street got its bailout; now it’s time for rock fans to get theirs,” said Staind frontman Aaron
Lewis. “This summer, we want to give our fans one night where they can forget about everything else and experience a
great rock show.”
"We've always said that we, as a band, only answer to one boss...and that's everyone
in the audience,” offers Shinedown's Brent Smith. "It’s our job...our privilege to offer our fans an escape.
Teaming up with these other great bands, we're doing what we can to help lift everyone's spirits in these tough times…the
power of music can do that."

This" tour on these selected dates.

Warner Bros. Records will release the soundtrack to the
hotly anticipated feature film Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen on June 23rd — the day before the film, the sequel
to the 2007 Oscar-nominated summer blockbuster Transformers , hits theaters nationwide.
The film’s director and executive producer Michael Bay asked Warner Bros. Records’ multiplatinum

by Bay, Oscar-winning composer Hans Zimmer, and award-winning composer Steve Jablonsky to contribute to the score. “New
Divide” is currently available for purchase on iTunes.
Transfomers: Revenge of the Fallen: The Album also features music from Green Day (who contribute “21
Guns” — a song from their new album 21st Century Breakdown), Taking Back Sunday, The Used , The All-American Rejects,
Cavo, The Fray, Staind, Nickelback, Cheap Trick and more. In addition to the original soundtrack, Warner Bros will be

ADDICTEDtoStAiND.com was forced
to delete all lyrics by Staind, sorry about this but it was out of my hands =(
ADDICTEDtoStAiND started out as a one
page tribute on AOL hometown back in early 2003. As my addiction grew bigger and stronger, I outgrew that one
page tribute and decided to make a real Staind fansite. I bought the domain name in March of 2005 and started to
build the fansite which was launched in April of 2005. Little did I know what was going to happen to me just by having a Staind
fansite. I have met so many great people through the years that I love dearly. My addiction grew more and more with each
concert I attended. Staind is not just a band they are part of my life now and the fans aren't just fans they are my family.
In early 2007 I started looking for a new host to make ADDICTEDtoStaind even bigger. I found a new home where ADDICTEDtoStAiND
started moving to in March 2007 and was launched on April 6th 2007. This site is not just a Staind fansite it is a major source
of information for the fans. I do all the work on this site I have no team and no help so I am very proud of all my hard work.
I would like to thank the many fans that have wrote me encouraging letters, those letters are what makes me thrive to keep
this site updated.
