SHINEDOWN AT CREDIT UNION OF TEXAS EVENT CENTER IN ALLEN
The evening started off with a performance from Spiritbox, which unfortunately I was unable to catch due to some logistics issues and traffic getting to and at the the venue, but next came Papa Roach, who took to the stage as the supporting act for Shinedown and they certainly did not disappoint.
