Staind Announce Another 2019 Reunion Show
Staind have added another reunion concert to their docket of upcoming gigs, which will be their first performances as a band in over two years.
The newly revealed show at the Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket, Connecticut, will take place Saturday, Oct. 5. It joins two previously announced Staind shows at this fall's Louder Than Life Festival in Kentucky and the Aftershock Festival in Northern California.
Interestingly, the show was announced by Staind frontman Aaron Lewis during a solo gig at the same venue Sunday (July 28). You can watch the live video he shared down toward the bottom of this post.
Guitarist Mike Mushok also had a hand in promoting the upcoming concert, letting fans know about the band's hometown concert near their Massachusetts origin point in an appearance on iRock Radio. Mushok also appeared onstage with Lewis at Foxwoods Sunday night.
Speaking to Loudwire in April, after Staind first revealed their reunion with a festival appearance for September, Lewis coyly joked the band would "spend a month rehearsing to play one show."
At the same time, regarding the possibility of new Staind music, Mushok told Loudwire he would "love for that to happen, and I'm very proud of the stuff that we’ve done, and I love writing with Aaron … I'm happy that we're even able to go out and play." The band's last studio album came out in 2011.
