Collective Soul Blog

WOW! Last nite in Council Bluffs, IA was SUPERBLY EXCELLENT!
Ballroom Show @ Harrah's Casino. We had GREAT seats...10th row!
I've been a HUGE fan of these guys from day 1! Haven't heard any local chat about any tours, but the....THIS ONE! YOWSERS!!
The only thing that could have made it better, was for them to play a bitlonger, but I'll take all that they offered!
My fave was the acoustic version of "The World I know".
Drove 2hrs one way to see these guys, & WELL WORTH IT!
Come back to this area again SOON guys!! Pleeeeez!

Hey guys, wow what a privilege to leave you a message.

I started collecting CD's in 1996 and my very first album I bought was a Collective Soul CD. For years you have been a part of my life and have you been there for me when I felt down in the dumps, thats when id just turn up the radio with one of your tunes and it got me right back up again.

For being who you are and for using your awesome talent to produce so many songs for me to enjoy, I really want to thank you from the very bottom of my heart.

I have a big favor to ask,could you pleeeeeeeease visit South Africa some time in the future? A lot of fans here, including myself, would love to see you live in concert :)


Rock on forever Collective Soul!!!!

Hey Guys,

Just wanted to thank you for an amazing album. Also, your music has helped me deal with a lot of issues thru the years and still does to this day. I've been listening to you guys since Hints, Allegations, And Things Left Unsaid. Thank the good lord that you guys have stuck thru thick and thin to keep bringing us great music. I read somewhere that you guys were taking a break after this album. Just please come to CT before that. Last time I saw you guys I saw you at the Webster Theater and it was a great show. It was for the Youth tour and I went with a friend who met you guys in Iraq. Her name was Erin. I didn't get to meet you guys since I arrived a bit too late. Thanks again for the memories and keep on rocking. Merry Christmas to all of you and your families.

P.S. Congrats Joel, on the angel that God has sent you.

I had such high hopes and plans to be in Atlanta this weekend to see my favorite guys rock...It just wasn't in the cards. Even if Doc would have ok'd it, the weather would have put the ol' brakes on it. It's snowing AGAIN today....I hope the guys had a great night last night, and have a great night again tonight...I'm there in spirit guys! And "You" needs to be on EVERY radio station...I'm friends with a local DJ...see what I can do about getting it on around this area. The whole CD is incredible. No point in keeping it a secret! Rock on guys! Joel-hope your wife and baby boy are doing well! The picture of you and your son is absolutely adorable! You're obviously a very proud papa. Congrats again! Merry Christmas to Collective Soul and families...your music brings so much to my life, and has gotten me through a very rough year! Better Now has become my theme song...it fits the past year of my life to a T....amazing! Whenever I'm having a bad day, I play it...and remember where I was when 2009 began..and where I'm at now...then I'm over it! Don't know how to put into words words what their music means to me! God Bless you all and keep you safe! And hey, Steamboat Days in Burlington, Iowa is booking again for June.....hint hint hint hint hint!
