      Thank you, as the lyrical writer for Godsmack, this was an idea I came up with on my own to attempt to solve the problem that British royalty had successfully sabotaged American musical culture in the 1950s and to try to bring people and families publicly together into the heart of enjoying thought provoking hour long symphonies once again.

      ​​@@michellelambert6703that's so awesome!!! Music has been a huge part of my own life, ( I was lead guitarist of a band called immortal malice for 13 years,) and I did my best to pass that on to my children. My oldest especially took that ball and ran with it, playing multiple instruments, being in multiple school honors bands, and rising to drum major of her high school marching band. Next fall she'll join the marching band and the music program at the University of Nebraska.
      Seeing this brought tears to my eyes.
      Having met Sully way back in 2001, at Rockfest in Council Bluffs, Iowa, I know what a great guy he is. He stood there and talked to me for a good half hour like we were old friends, and became a huge inspiration for my own musical career, such that it was. I can only imagine what an experience this was for these kids. Something they'll remember for the rest of their lives.
      There needs to be so much more of this in the world. Thank you.

Overseas all through that being away from family and friends and the freedoms of home, i always kept this band in my headphones as they always to me represented best what we stand for and fought or fight for from this great country.... Honest to God being the caring such awesome people all those guys seem to be it truly didnt surprise me that they were the Band that could put something like that together and touch so many young people with an experience they will likely carry dear with them for the rest of their lives! My 3 year old son has been raised and can sing every word to every Godsmack song ever made. That is what this Band means to me and my household! This video genuinely moved me the first time i watched and every time since... Watching music bring people so diverse together is truly a beautiful thing and no surprise this band is one that did it.. God bless you guys and thank you for always caring more about the fans you touch than the industry and what it brings with it as you all have always stayed true to your kind souls!

      Sully doesn't believe in God he is Wiccan
      That actually surprised me 🤔
      I've been a fan from get.. I also relate to all of their songs in one way or another.
      This is the ONLY band that I really like AlLL of their music and words ..❤
      I recently found out that his religion is Wiccan because he did an interview a couple year's ago about metal music and the devil, he said in his Wiccan beliefs there is no devil because then there would HAVE to be a God..So he doesn't believe in either. It's more like this, the "good" hearted person puts out Love, understanding and kindness and therefore receives it back 3x (vise versa for bad) respect our planet ect.(some have different versions) I'm Irish and my ancestors believed in that as well (and the rest of them were Catholics)
      I still love the music and will always be a fan..I didn't get to see them live last year. I'm disabled, the venue was 4 hours away and the tickets were expensive (that's something that truly sucked for me)..I'm the 80's Rocker Chick..😎🤘🤎
      I DID however get to see Disturbed , Bad Wolves, and FFDP (the lead singer of Bad Wolves his back story has an incredible truth about his brother) He even has written a song about it, which must have been hard.💔
      Last, but definitely not least is 3DG and WOW. Matt does a great job with the Original Adam songs. I was extremely impressed and pleasantly surprised 👍❤ *I also have an amazing support system who helped me with $$$ to be able to go* Each venue whom ALL allowed me to be in the PIT with my son and sister (I would have had to sit alone) let me into the PIT area with my weelchair, my 13 yr old son & my awesome sister 👍❤ I had a handicap area seat and they had PIT because I would have NEVER thought they'd allow me in the pit because of my wheelchair. It definitely was extremely super cool of them 3DG actually were very helpful and also helped to make that happen 😎
      When Godsmack came to IL they didn't come anywhere near me. They played in Moline IL ( I would have had to get a hotel and the tickets were super expensive..😒💔) hopefully they will come back to IL and play at Tinley Park, Allstate arena or Peoria Civic Center..
      It's still far. I'd have to leave 1 day before and stay with my sister ( Which I did for the othert concerts but the tickets were reasonably priced and my sister lives near the venue) If it's Peoria it's only 2 hours away (hint, hint 😉) To ALL of my fellow brothers and sisters out there be safe, stay healthy. God bless ❤
      HELP each other out during this pandemic and trying times..****.especially our elderly, disabled, and youngsters in our neighborhoods and you can do that safely.
      🤘💚🤍🧡

      Indeed. It does make sense that they are doing such things. Not to take away from everything else Erna and team have done in their careers but I heard last year Godsmack is no longer recording. They all are grown up and have families that needed them to retire. So with all the success the band has had and the likelihood they will retire, it's cool they are using their talents to teach future musicians how they did it, so that new generation can find their own art form.

    What i do appreciate is people in bands like godsmack who put their extra time to ppl and give them high hopes in making music. Its all not about shaking hands with the devil, banging strippers, doing blow, driving nice rides, and owning big houses. To me music keeps us going whether we are having a good day or bad because it keeps us all focused for the better. To the times at bars with your friends or moshing out at a concert showing support, to me thats what real people who give a damn about other people who are musicians and teach other people to have a gift like godsmack does. Keep it up godsmack!
