AB will be the next VanHalen
 

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

That makes no sense... Van Halen was always one band. Creed and Alter Bridge are two very different bands.

What is accurate is that Scott Stapp is the next Axl Rose, and I mean that in the worst way possible.

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

So that means Scott Stapp will end up like David Lee Roth!:roll:

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

Actually Van Halen was very succesful with there second singer, It was the third one that killed them. Calling Myles the second singer in Creed is like calling Chris the second singer in Rage, they are 2 different bands. I think it will be even more obvious on ABs next release.

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

Myles is not a replacement, genius!

WORD!!!!

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

Scott won't be the next Axl Rose. I really wonder how all you people who hate Stapp ever came to like Creed.

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

recognizing a persons bizarre behavior does not equal hate.

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

And I did love Stapp, but right now I've grown away from that, I was young and stupid! :D

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

Oh... AND I SECOND LITH! Smart ass!

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

i don't hate stapp....i started listening to creed because of mark tremonti. because i play guitar and he was/is damn good and i look to him as a role model for guitar playing. i didn't mind stapp before, but now it's easy to see through his lies and deceptions (not from the entire time with creed, but for the last 2 years). he even carries it on today to some degree. i have his cd, and i listen to it as well. like i said, i don't hate stapp, i just don't agree with all the things he's done. i also don't think he should be playing 7 creed songs (1 song short of how many he's doing of his OWN songs) on his "scott stapp solo tour." in time, that will take it's toll on the goneblind guys...if he wants to do some creed songs, i think he should do wawo, higher, my sacrifice, and maybe one....leave the rest alone; if you want to fill out your set more, pick some cover tunes..that would be more interesting to me and make the shows more enjoyable. that's just my opinion though.

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

:hammerlol

but, i can see where he's coming from... granted, they need to be successful in terms of album sales and, thus far, AB pales in comparison to Hagar-era VH.

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

like eusebio said, just b/c we think they make questionable (even stupid, moronic) decisions in their private life doesn't mean we hate them as an artist. d'oh! :chillpill

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

youre an idiot, and your stapp hating posts are annoying. just thought u should know.

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

well Ryan... his set is made of 8 covers of Creed! lol

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

it's 8 now? i thought it was 8 stapp and 7 creed...lol. but i mean other covers...not creed ones. i'd like to hear him do some other songs.

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

All the GN'R fans seem to hate axel... but they still like GnR... when it comes down to it... it really doesn't matter whether you like the personality of the musicians... its whether you like the music or not. Oh... and it's only been in the last few years that all the things about stapp have really surfaced w/ any credibility...

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

Who knows where they'll end up...As far as Axl goes, I think his head just got too big too fast...and he started to think of it as Axl Rose, and the other dudes...

As far as Stapp...no idea what will happen...

As far as AB becoming VH...doubt it....you can tell they all love playing with each other...obviously no problems thus far. If things continue like that they are bound to become more popular with time...they basically had to start over again, different singer comes a different sound. But, Myles is friggin great. And, I DO believe he is the BEST they could have got....seriously the man is beyond words for me.

Nice post!!

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

I guess I didn't really get to the point with my original post. You see, Eddie VanHalen kept himself up on this pedestal and basically ran off Roth and Hagar. Both singers were great in their own right (in their day), but VanHalen's destruction came at the hands of it's pompas founder. Egos are a powerful thing.
Myles a replacement singer......no, and neither was Roth.

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

Yea, I see what you're saying. Tremonti is to Eddie as Myles is to Roth. The only thing I really don't agree with is that I don't see AB having the success that VH did.:(

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

are you saying Mark pushed Scott away(ended Creed) with an Eddie Van Halen ego?:wtf:

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

and i don't see mark as having an ego or attitude...the numerous times i've met him he's been super down to earth and a nice guy.....on the other hand, after being a creed fan for 9 years, i've NEVER met stapp, NEVER. i've met the other guys, even before alter bridge, but never stapp. hmmm..

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

Oh that's too bad. Did your mommy and daddy not let you stay out that late or what?

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

Nothing to do with Scott. Talking about the future of AB.

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

But hey, only time will tell. Right?

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

WHAT! Are you stupid? Yes, that was a personal insult, but I do not like it when people say stuff like you did, trying to be a whise ass. The reason, for witch you for some reson can't see, he didn't get to meet Stapp is becouse Stapp is a diva, the others are not! I've met AB twice and both times they were extreamly friendly to us!

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

Don't take things so seriously. I was only joking. But I don't agree with Stapp being a "Diva". Go to one of his shows and you might change your perspective. :dunno:

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

You don't personally insult someone and not expect them to take it seriously. That's the whole point of insulting them. To demean them to make yourself look better. Grow up. If you can't act civil then get out. You have 13 posts and have not earned any respect on here with your comments. Do yourself a favor and Act with some dignity. You're not helping Stapp or his image by the way you are conducting yourself.

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

Who pulled your chain junior? I don't take advice from teenagers.You can't even fathom my level of integrity. Frankly I'm not here to gain anyone's respect. It's a damn internet forum for pete's sake, not a holy sanctuary. I just come here to weed through all the crap and try to find useful information. I do not represent Stapp. He is his own man as am I. I see it is past your bedtime too.

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

You do seem a little hostile but, you havn't come after me yet so no worries here:cool:
I'm not holding real high expectations for AB or Stapp because neither seems to be making that lightning strike.(lightning striking the same place twice-CREED)
I'm going to bet my money on Alter Bridge. I prefer the heavier sound and the absence of an ego intoxicated front man. There's just something about Scott that annoys me:confused:
If I'm wrong there's still alot of good BANDS out there.
SLIPKNOT, CHEVELLE, MUDVAYNE, DISTURBED........................
............and SMASHING PUMPKINS?(keeping my fingers crossed)

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

you're awfully assuming "alter_who?"....you don't know shit about me and you make dumbass comments like that. *insert sarcasm*way to go, you're awesome! :rolleyes:

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

actually, from reading your posts, it seems as though you're here to stir shit and start arguments and insult people. if you don't like alter bridge, why do you spend time in the ab section?

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

Well, I haven't been to one since he's never come coles to my home... Not even London... Yet, but since I'm not that fond of his solo music I can't say I will either. But from fotage I've seen on him WITH CREED he was pretty much a diva. He had his own trailer and he was the one running the band not letting the others have any input what so ever to the songs, Mark wasn't alowed to solo as much as he wanted becouse of Stapp (Yes he have said that solos wouldn't have been suited for Creed, but that's becouse Stapp forced that sound to be that way, IMO!)... Stapp now have his solo career and he's happy with that... AB have their band and they're happy with that... Solo - Band... Who's the diva?

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

Alter_Who, you I must say... You are an idiot, YES! THAT WAS PERSONAL INSULT... But since you're acting as you are I can't seem to find any other words for it!

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

Was that ironic or did you lough at my post?

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

No, I was laughing at the statement that Alter Bridge would be the next Van Halen. That one was funny as all hell. Ha....Ha...Ha...Ha.

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

hey RoffeDH,...guitar solos aren't everything ya know. ALot of Creed songs didn't need them. I feel that he forced alot of unneccessary solos on ODR. But maybe that was his way of diverting attention away from the grammar school lyrics?..hmmmm

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

LOL

Re: AB will be the next VanHalen
 

i was about to ask the same question...:rolleyes:
