Re: Stapp Confesses

I actually had thoughts about Stapp being an alcholist. I never wanted to post them, 'cause I knew I couldn't back them up with any facts, and people would just get pissed off... But now when he puts it this way... I can finally understand him.

Creed actually seems to be quite a sad story. For some reason I can't stop thinking about Romeo And Juliet! Problably because I read that script a few weeks ago, but still... And I have to agree with Stapp, I don't think Creed was right for Mark either. Yes, he is a genuis, but now that he's in Alter Bridge, it's easy to tell he wasn't happy with Creed. I remember Flip saying in an interview that Mark have said: "I want you to come play with me, but only if we do at least two heavy metal songs". And now he's doing A LOT more soloing! But the reason he didn't do that in Creed, I think, is because; when they started out he wasn't that good. He said that himself in the latest TotalGuitar interview. And then when he became a good soloist Creed already had a style, and it was very hard to fit guitar solos into that style.

It's a shame though, that Americans, and at some points the world's most popular rockband never agreed. These guys all reached their top of their careers unsatisfied.
