Pedistles were made for falling off of...and from what i read, not only above, but in other posts, some have put Tremo (and the rest of AB) up there pretty high.

Unless you live with someone, or are around them 24/7...what you see is what THEY want you to see....will you be so accepting of Tremonti, or for that matter of any of them when they fall?

They will someday, ya know...'cause they are only human beings...just like the rest of us...all prone to making mistakes...we all do...

When that happens...will you all loose compassion for them as well. Will you be the same people that will pick apart everything AB would do, after their fall from grace comes to pass? Will you condemn any or all of their attempts at rebuilding after seeing them for their weaknesses after knowing their strengths for so long?...Will you turn on one another, because some will support them, while others will not?...

The answers to these questions have already happend once...and they will happen again...unless people remember that nobody's perfect...and that what each of you do to another...you also do to yourselves...doesn't matter if it is somebody you know, a stranger on the street...and in this instance...stapp...

This was something i had to say...take it for what it's worth...but at least i hope it made you think...

Quote: 1) That is so horribly ironic, I dont know what to say.....

but it appears you DID have something to say...

Quote: 2) Steve just answered, and I agree, the other guys simply havent done anything yet.

actually, i'm sure that there have been a lot of things that "fans" don't know about "the other guys"...and if they did...certain people would have a problem with.

Quote: 3) sounds like you speak from experience.

not necessairly...

Quote: If Stapp has fallen off of the pedastle so many people have put him on, why would you defend him?

personally, i've never held stapp to a pedistle....and if standing up for another human being, despite what qualities they put forward with the realiziation that none of us are perfect...then so be it.

Quote: Why would you be so against AB?

in all actuality...i have nothing against AB...always wished them the best of luck in their lives and professional endeavours...i haven't posted anything for quite some time in their reguard...

Quote: I simply dont understand how it doesnt work both ways.

ya know...that is something i've been wondering about myself from what i've been reading...it's getting "old"...and life's too short...isn't it?

Quote: If AB had performed Creed songs, I'd be even more upset, because theyve already said they wouldnt.


Does that mean that you would be upset because AB would be basically going back on their word...or just because they were singing Creed songs?...stapp never said he wouldn't incorporate Creed songs in his solo act...so i don't see a problem.

Quote: If they began to show the kind of misbehavior we have seen from Stapp in the last couple of years, I would loose respect for them.

You can loose respect for someone because they make mistakes...and if that is how you feel...so be it....

Quote: I wouldn't stand blindly by and just support them.

don't think anyone is blind in their support...but then again...everyone will see it differently.
