SCOTT STAPP: 'I JUST CAN'T DRINK LIQUOR'
http://www.kpnt.com/new_rock_news/Display.aspx?ID=48512 Former Creed singer Scott Stapp has finally confronted a recurring demon in his life -- alcohol. Stapp told us that some recent controversies, including a Thanksgiving Day bar fight with 311 and a drunken appearance on Spike TV's Casino Cinema, were the result of drinking too much, which he's taken steps to alleviate: "It involved alcohol, and it made me address a situation in my life and realize that I'm just one of those people that just can't drink liquor, man. You know, I can understand people, like, 'Okay, what's up with this guy?' But they were just some stupid mistakes, man, that, you know, I wish I could have back. But all I can do is keep looking forward, man." Stapp, who also suffered a past addiction to the painkiller OxyContin, entered rehab after the Spike TV episode in December and has remained sober since. Stapp is scheduled to be married for the second time on February 10th. He has a seven-year-old son from his first marriage. Stapp kicks off a tour to promote his debut solo album, The Great Divide, on February 23rd in Orlando, Florida. If you follow the link to the following article, there is an audio clip... of Scott speaking the bolded part. Click on the Real Player icon at the end. It's great to hear his voice Quote: http://launchdaily.newcapinteractive.com/ SCOTT STAPP REGRETS FIGHT WITH 311 The rock world is still buzzing about former Creed singer Scott Stapp's punch-up with 311 on Thanksgiving Day in Baltimore, Maryland. According to 311's account, a drunken Stapp instigated the scuffle, first verbally and then physically. Stapp admitted to us that he was drunk, but says the blame for the incident should be shared: "We were all celebrating and it just got out of hand. That's it man, you know. With the 311 fight, I don't want to get into the details of that. I regret that it happened. But had the same things gone on sober, it would've happened sober." 311 rapper Doug "SA" Martinez, who said Stapp insulted his wife, wound up with a broken wrist from the fight and had to perform for several weeks in a cast. Stapp went into rehabilitation for alcoholism in December, following the fight and a drunken appearance on Spike TV's Casino Cinema program. Stapp kicks off a tour to promote his solo album, The Great Divide, on February 23rd in Orlando, Florida. And this refers to the recent Rolling Stone article... Quote: http://www.wccc.com/musicnewsarch.php Jan 27 2006 SCOTT STAPP recently participated in a conference call with members of the press in which he accused Rolling Stone magazine of misrepresenting him in a recent article, and gave his side of two drunken incidents last year that lead to him giving up drinking completely. First, he insists that his alcohol abuse was exaggerated in Rolling Stone. The singer says that his heavy drinking ended when he finished the final CREED tour. But he admits that a more recent isolated drinking incident got him into trouble at a recent appearance on Spike TV's Casino Cinema. He also admits he was drunk when he got into a Thanksgiving bar fight with members of 311 in which S.A. MARTINEZ broke his finger, but insists he would have responded to their drunken provocation in the same way if he had been sober. |

Re: What do u think?
Same here. I think if he has someone to hold him accountable on tour(his sobriety coach) he'll be able to stay clean.

Re: What do u think?
The name of the article should be: SCOTT STAPP: 'I JUST CAN'T DRINK WATER' instead of SCOTT STAPP: 'I JUST CAN'T DRINK LIQUOR'

Re: What do u think?
Agreed. I did think it was cruel, but I can't deny that I laughed about it.

Re: What do u think?
Heh, yeah, I haven't posted as much lately here. Just been busy re-launching one of the fan sites I help run. That basically consumed a lot of my 'net-based time. Good to see you again as well!
