No I havn't, I don't think I will plan on it either.

It can't be worse than the remake of John Denver's "Thank God I'm a country Boy" though.

Ya I heard it...some reason my friend seems to like it..dunno why though...

Then again...I'm more of a AC/DC & metallica fan...

Wish I could get the original version of shinedown's "45"...I have no idea why they changed it..it stinks after they changed it.

stillwater minnesota- lumberjack days- i think its 2 weekends from this weekend ( basically 3 weekends from now ) its just insane- in a good way. theres so many boats you can have a nearly impossible time docking your boat anywhere. its off the St Croix river. we camp on an island near "beer can island" which is always a party spot on a big holiday or event weekend like that. if you can get some friends and a boat with alot of beer to come up here- you wont regret it

If you like shinedown's version of Simple Man, you'll love my rock and crayon drawing of the Mona Lisa. It's got pasta and glitter and everything.
Some things are best left unmolested.
