Staind, Shinedown, Chevelle, and Halestorm all want to stimulate you (Tour Dates)

If you like hard rock music, you’re going to love this bit of news. Staind, Shinedown, Chevelle and Halestorm will be playing together on the “Stimulate This!” tour. Not only is the lineup incredible but the ticket prices will be inexpensive. Starting on July 1st and going through 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. Almost all the shows will have ticket prices under $40 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 discounts on concessions at the venue during the show, store discounts at local retailers, and online rebates for band merchandise to name a few.

Atlantic Records will give away a pair of tickets to five fans in every market who pose the best reason as to why they need a free night of rock. Fans can send their stories and enter the contest through Atlantic Records’ website, www.atlanticrecords.com. More details will be available soon on the website.

“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.”
