Quote: (Originally Posted by Chase) I will bet anyone that Stapp's solo effort will be more popular than Alter Bridge's "One Day Remains." Stapp will probably be ripped by the critics, but embraced by more people... much like Creed was. Most people were first drawn to Creed by Stapp's voice and lyrics... later realizing how great of a guitarist Tremonti was. That was Creed's appeal. I'm not saying that Alter Bridge isn't good... but they haven't had the powerful effect on people like has Creed had.

One more thing, if Stapp does decide to play a Creed song or two on his solo tour... just remember that Audioslave plays Rage Against the Machine songs and has Cornell singing Soundgarden's "Black Hole Sun."

Creed's "appeal" seams to be eerily similar to certain other acts out today, not worth mentioning...

Really though, Stapp is not gonna get that popular. He is old news and that never does well. Even if he has the msot radio friendly songs on earth--which he prolly will--he is too old and too hated. Or maybe he will. who knows.
