Re: TGD vs ODR Sales(thus far)

Didn't Stapp's CD go on sale right before the holidays? Timing is everything, and so is publicity. Stapp got more publicity from the record company for his solo CD. Not to mention all of the bad press Stapp created for himself, which continuously keeps him in the public eye and gossip papers/websites and radio stations. People like controversey and therefore that is why his name continues to pop up everywhere and it certainly isn't for his music. Stapp is a very good writer as we all witnessed in Creed, but he was a part of a great team, which included Mark, Flip and Brian. As a team Creed did great, but Stapp's head got too big and he wanted to take credit for everything (till this day he still does). He wants the spotlight so bad that he's like a moth to a flame and will ultimately self-destruct.

AB sounds awesome and I think it is because of that teamwork mentality. Myles, Mark, Flip and Brian are extremely talented and each member contributes their creativity and ideas to their music which makes them a "Dream Team". When people work together and truly enjoy what they do it shows. Stapp is self-absorbed and unfortunately the only person he cares about is himself. Actions speaks louder than words (even Stapp's.)
