Umm, has anyone seen this?


Very interesting.

Re: Stapp and AB's relationship
 

Indeed.

Re: Stapp and AB's relationship
 

Hence, never say never ;). Still, though, I wouldn't hold out much hope for it.

Re: Stapp and AB's relationship
 

I see it happening, and I think I've said it before. Time heals a lot of wounds. Look at Van Halen. Look at the Eagles. Look at the Police. Look at Led Zeppelin. All are bands that broke up (in VH's case, they simply didn't get along with the singer for a while...) and have recently begun touring again. I can see Tremonti, Philips and, yes, even Marshall, becoming more and more willing to give Stapp another shot...at least for one last tour. Now the question is, if it really doesn't happen for another 10 years, will people care enough for it to actually happen? I mean, obviously, Creed won't go down as a legendary rock band, so it's not like any record label (or WU...if they're still around) would just scoop them up right away. There'd have to be enough of a fanbase left for such a reunion to, financially, happen.

The question, I think, is not whether it'll happen, but when it will. And I think it's all going to depend on Alter Bridge's success. If BB and the next CD do not sell well, I could see this reunion tour happening a lot sooner than 10-15 years from now. But if AB really does stay a band for a long time, I can't see a Creed reunion for a long time, either. Unless, of course, Mark softens his stance.

So what do I want? Well, first and foremost, I'd like for both parties to be happy with whatever they're doing. I LOVE Alter Bridge's music and have a fond appreciation for Stapp's. So, really, I'd be happy either way. But if a Creed reunion DID happen, I'd be at the very first show, regardless of where it is.

Re: Stapp and AB's relationship
 

Oh, I'd be there as well, if nothing else than for curiosity.

Re: Stapp and AB's relationship
 

For me it's more of a sentimental reason. I never got to see Creed live. It's one of the regrets of my life. ;)

Re: Stapp and AB's relationship
 

I hope it doesnt happen for a very long time as I love AB alot more than Creed. I'd hate to see them abandon Myles just to join Stapp for a silly reunion tour.

Re: Stapp and AB's relationship
 

They wouldn't have to "abandon" him just to do a Creed reunion tour. They could do the tour, and then go right back to Alter Bridge. Myles could take a few months off, or possibly do a side project while Creed would be touring.

Re: Stapp and AB's relationship
 

Titan, I definitely understand your wanting to see the reunion. The shows I saw were great, I must say.

Re: Stapp and AB's relationship
 

Yeah, it'd be cool, but after just having went to an AB concert last night, I am perfectly content with the way things are. If they never reunite, it's fine by me.

Re: Stapp and AB's relationship
 

I've seen them a few times myself and they are great! I'm glad you made it to an AB show to see for yourself just how awesome these guys are together and the fun they have on stage with each other and with the fans. They're all very good-hearted guys and very talented musicians. Did you get to meet any of them before or after the show?

Re: Stapp and AB's relationship
 

Nope, the place was packed, and the show went late, so we left right afterwards. I had planned on getting front row in front of Mark, but by the time I got in, there were already people there, so I settled for a few rows back of Brian. I'm planning on getting there earlier next time and meeting them. Even just being there was great. They played like 13 songs, the whole band was spot on. Definitely the best concert I've ever been to.
