thats going to be the #1 reason why AB and Stapp will never be selling out arenas or having huge selling albums. a big part of Creed's audience was the same crowd who bought NSYNC in 2000. but people grow up and their musical tastes mature.

no one really wants anything to do with Creed anymore. the general public isnt going to embrace Alter Bridge or Scott Stapp. i'll be surprised if either record goes platinum.

now with that being said, all of you guys are ridiculous. its just music. if Stapp really likes the music he's making and it only sells 100,000 copies then SO WHAT?? would that be a failure? not at all. commercially maybe but to the artist it wouldnt be. that applies to Alter Bridge as well. they look like theyre having a blast they say that they're making the best music of their lives. they like their music - if it doesnt sell SO WHAT??

FACE REALITY EVERYBODY (THAT INCLUDES ALL OF YOU). YOURE NOT GOING TO GET THE PAST BACK. TRY TO SEE WHATS REALLY IMPORTANT.

Lol, i don't think there is one true thing in this post. YOu have to realize that AB is not creed. Creed is postgrunge, AB is Hard rock. Now adays people are more into postgrunge. AB's audience will be more than just creed fans, they will pick up those people who like the background of creed but hated scott's voice. (i also disagree with the fact that NSYNC and Creed fans are generally totally different) . You don't know iif AB will be big as creed, time will have to tell. But i think AB has a disadvantage because the hard rock genre of music isn't really in the mainstream right now.
