Stockbridge natives, Collective Soul, performed to a
sold-out audience at the Tabernacle the day following the release of
their long-awaited album “See What You Started By Continuing.”
Atlanta's love affair with Ed Roland and the boys continues to be strong and
the Georgia music community showed its respect by inducting them into the
Georgia Music Hall of Fame in 2009. Last year, Ed Roland was inducted
separately for songwriting.
“This is a band that didn’t sell out or sacrifice their integrity
to be a ‘flavor of the month,’ so witnessing a success like that was very
moving,” said Michele Caplinger, senior executive director of the Atlanta
chapter of the Recording Academy. “What a great musical gift they are to the
state.”
The two hour performance opened with "December" and
included hits like "Run," "Heavy," "Shine," as
well as music from the new release.
As a special treat, the opening act was Kevn
Kinney's DNC Supergroup featuring Dave V. Johnson on drums, Cracker's bassist Bryan Howard and Sheryl Crow's guitarist-extraordinaire, Peter Stroud.
