There was no doubt that the huge crowd was hoping to hear about a quick solution but the chief hydraulic engineer of the South Florida Water Management District stated cat- egorically that, "there is no silver bullet solution." And thereby lies the problem. At the current rate of deterioration, the Pine Island and Caloosahatchee estuaries will be dead by the time all the plans are realized, according to many experts. The issue - a dying ecosystem that extends from the Kissimmee River Basin to the southern tip of Florida, including the The spirited cast of You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown estuaries of both the east and west coasts.

  • Shinedown Zanger Brent Smith Loepzuiver Hun Album Amaryllis
    Shinedown zanger Brent Smith loepzuiver Hun album Amaryllis kwam in maart dit jaar uit maar de Europese fans van Shinedown moesten nog even wachten tot ze hun lievelingsband in levenden lijve zagen. Afgelopen maandag stonden ze in de 013 in Tilburg. De massaal in Shinedown shirts geklede fans kwamen in ieder geval niet van een koude kermis thuis. De band zorgde voor een fantastisch optreden waaraan niets ontbrak. De band opende met het nummer “the sound of madness” waarmee ze het publiek meteen meesleepten in hun energieke en stevige sound. Zanger Brent Smith had even tijd nodig om op te warmen waardoor de uithalen in de eerste twee nummers kracht misten. Maar ondersteund door achtergrondzang van gitarist Zach Myers en bassist Eric Bass vormde het uiteindelijk een prachtig geheel dat niet onderdeed aan de opnames van het album. Tussen de nummers door liet Smith zijn charmes los op het publiek. Telkens ging het licht aan zodat de band contact kon maken met hun geliefde publiek. Herhaaldelijk bedankte Smith zich bij de fans voor hun steun en “de eer dat ze hier mochten staan”. Daarnaast werd het publiek verrast toen niet alleen hun nieuwe album ten gehore werd gebracht maar ook eerdere hits geserveerd werden. Zo kwamen “45” en “simple man” voorbij, waarbij de laatste massaal meegezonden werd. Storend bleef tijdens het optreden dat de basdrums van drummer Barry Kerch te hard afgesteld stonden waardoor een constant dreunen niet genegeerd kon worden. Maar kleine uitschieters in het begin, te harde basdrums of een foutje in een solo werd snel vergeven. Shinedown staat met overtuiging en plezier op het podium.

  • Early in 2007, Producer Rob Cavallo Asked Shinedown Frontman Brent Smith About His Goals for the Band's New Album. Smith Didn't Hesitate
    Early in 2007, producer Rob Cavallo asked Shinedown frontman Brent Smith about his goals for the band's new album. Smith didn't hesitate. "I said, 'You know what -- when I'm dead and gone, when everybody in this band has passed or what have you, I want the world to remember this as a record that needed to be made, and that there was a reason for it,' " Smith says. "That was the motivation behind this album.” "And part of the reason it took so long to make!" Welcome then to THE SOUND OF MADNESS, Shinedown's third album -- and the Florida rockers' boldest effort to date. Like its two predecessors, 2003's Platinum LEAVE A WHISPER and 2005's Gold US AND THEM, THE SOUND OF MADNESS offers a brave and unsparing look into the soul and psyche amidst a fierce musical attack that, even in its quieter moments, vibrate with the passion, energy and focus of a band with high-minded ideals and limitless ambitions. Smith and company began the recording process for THE SOUND OF MADNESS with the formidable task of following up two massively successful albums that yielded a staggering seven consecutive Top five rock and alternative radio hits that included "Fly From the Inside," "45," the chart topping "Save Me," and a cover of Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Simple Man," along with a reputation as a hot live band with an insatiable appetite for the road. However, after one listen, it’s clear that the band didn't shrink from the task. Where THE SOUND OF MADNESS differs most is in its growth; it’s the product of a group that has developed an even clearer vision for how it wanted to impact an audience.
