it doesn't surprise us but it still saddens me.......

Stapp is going to cop a bit, lets make sure both parties are supported okay?

[TeriB19]

That is exactly right, we need to NOT start arguing over this. We are all fans of Creed, so we should support everyone involved.

That is exactly right, we need to NOT start arguing over this. We are all fans of Creed, so we should support everyone involved.

Exactly we all need to not take sides here and have a united front. Put your Creed cd's on (i'm listening to HC now) and enjoy the memories you have. Its saddening but at the same time the future looks very bright.

Well as though we rise
As the day breaks the dawn
And as the moon hides the sun
Oh, the sun
No more sorrow
All those crying days are gone
No more sorrow, now it's gone
Now it's gone
Now it's gone
So Is this the end for us my friend?
So Is this the end for us my friend?
So Is this the end for us my friend?
So Is this the end for us my friend?

Amen, y'all. It is a sad day indeed, but at least we got an explanation. And what Scott Phillips said at the end, Remember Us, I sure will. Creed have and still will give me countless hours of enjoyment. We have their gift of music that they shared with us. Their music brought me to CreedFeed (thank you, Steve!) and a whole bunch of new and dear friends. For that, I will be forever grateful.

[TeriB19]

Nothing is happening to Creedfeed, it's staying put.

Creed were probably the first band that I really really liked, when I started to appreciate music a little more. Great music with hooks galore and lryics that actually meant something that was a welcome change at the time.

I third that! :) I'm still remaining the HUGE Creed fan that I am. Nothing or no one will ever take that away from me. God the truth hurts though doesn't it!?!?! But I'm going into this very open and positive minded. I do still hope that one day they can all have their friendship back though. As I am happy for the new material for Scott Stapp and Alter Bridge, this is such a bitter sweet feeling!

I definately am saddened by the breakup of Creed, they have been my favorite band for years. I am excited to hear the new stuff from both AB and Scott and I'm sure I'll wear out a few more Creed cd's. It is a sad day for those of us who grew to love Creed for all that they were, including the lyrics, the awesome guitar parts, and of course, the hot guys!

[creedlvr]

Wow! That interview was quite disconcerting to read. Nothing like pointing the blame all in one direction. I don't know why I'm surprised!

[SCOTTSMYMAN]

Yes, I'm not to crazy about blame pointing all in that same direction myself but what are ya gonna do, they were just expressing how they felt about everything. I posted in the other thread my sentiments towards Creed. It is sad, but at the same time no big surprise.

[Jooji_2]

Hey....you never know. Maybe someday we will hear the other side of the story. Cause I do believe there are always two sides to every story. :D

[tremonti4life04]

Well, that news was quite sad, but on a better note, think of it this way...In the music industry there are going to be 2 very powerful bands now, Stapp, and AlterBridge. Its a great thing to see that they are both staying on the circuit, because it is my belief thatt what is called rock is deteriorating into punk and emo. As long as stapp and tremo dont start punk bands, im happy. Just because a band says its the end, doesnt really mean its the end. Look at KISS, they called it quits 4 billion times before it happened. Maybe all they need is just some time to get the creative juices flowing again. I have to admit that those interviews were very one sided, but stapp declined to be interviewed, which i think is piss poor on his side, i think that he should come out with what he has to say, but he declined, and it doesnt make me any less of a stapp fan, but i just dont agree with him on that, for whatever his reasons were. I believe that the music industry could only get better with stapp and tremonti in different bands, because people who didnt like creed because of their religious lyrics might turn to alterbridge, and people who liked creed will listen to stapp and alterbridge, and people who liked creed, but maybe not other band members except stapp, will listen to stapp. But i dont understand the choice of producers, that 7 aralieus, we gonna hear the scott stapp rapp? lol, no he already put a halt to those suspicions.

[hayley]

Wow, I feel sad. I knew all of that already, but seeing it there, on a website, clear as day, far out. :( Interesting, though.

[Dogstar]

Its a great thing to see that they are both staying on the circuit..

Indeed!

[Higher_Desire]

This news is extremly distressing to me. I know it shouldn't be, as we have heard of it for so long now, but with the official word from the guys, I feeling like curling up in a ball and crying. I've bands before that I've called my favorites through the years, but I have loved Creed since early 2000 when I first heard What If, and they have been my favorite ever since. This news is like a funeral for a loved one that you don't want to attend, because you feel that if you attend the funeral, you will be saying that you know that they're dead and will never come back.


H-D :pimp:

[creedlvr]

Hey....you never know. Maybe someday we will hear the other side of the story. Cause I do believe there are always two sides to every story. :DAgreed ... and I'm quite sure there is definitely another side to this one.


I have to admit that those interviews were very one sided, but stapp declined to be interviewed, which i think is piss poor on his side, i think that he should come out with what he has to say, but he declined, and it doesnt make me any less of a stapp fan, but i just dont agree with him on that, for whatever his reasons were.
Maybe he didn't want to bad-mouth them the way they did him.

Anyway, I'm glad I'm not the only one to see that this was very one-sided. Frankly, I found it in very poor taste.

[shiver]

First off, I am happy they finally made the announcement. Second, why be sad. If you like Stapp he's still around. For those of us who like Tremonti and gang, hip hop hooray. I think Stapp's lack of response, he declined to be interviewed, should tell the story. He knew MTV got a story, and I don't think Mark is one to lie. What was he gonna say, "No it didn't." I like nu-uh, better.

[hayley]

Riiiiight

[shiver]

I don't think Mark even really said anything bad about Stapp. He could have come out and said he was an a-hole or whatever. The basic point I got was that Stapp had a lot of things on his mind, and Creed wasn't number one. It would tick me off too if I was in a band and on member wasn't totally committed. I think that was the worse thing he said. He had other things going on. He (Mark) also mentioned, or at least it did in the article, that when he started toying with the idea of a side project, Stapp didn't like that idea. What was he afraid of? In my opinon, and remember, everyone is entitled to one, Stapp is gonna eventually, flame out. Something, someone, I dunno, is gonna get to him and he'll end up like his hero Jim Morrison. Come on baby light my fire!
