How long have you been a fan?

Curious how long others have been a fan (including the Creed days)?

When I first heard Higher, maybe 99 or 2000. I was ten around then.

Very very late 98, early 99.

Me too! ('99) I was starting to think there weren't very many of us left.

Re: How long have you been a fan?

Early-1998 I remember going on a camping trip in the spring and I could not get MOP out of my head (even though I didn't quite know the lyrics). I bought the CD and the rest is history. I remember liking the song One before I even heard it on the radio and was glad to hear it get some airplay.

I feel old, I was 20.

I got into Creed in the Fall of '99 when What If came out on rock radio, I remember hearing Higher on pop radio months later and not realizing it was the same band!

I was really happy to discover My Own Prison because it moody and heavy and unlike anything else. I was really disappointed when Weathered came out as it primarily popish and in a completely different direction from MOP. When Creed ended I thought Tremonti would go back to that direction as he is constantly implying that he really wants to do metal, but that has yet to happen. I've never understood it.

Re: How long have you been a fan?

Can't remember the exact year (I'm getting old, lol), but it was around 2001 or so. I heard One on the radio and loved the riffs. I called my sister and told her about this awesome song and she couldn't believe I hadn't been up on Creed.

One is pretty much the only song I don't like on My Own Prison.

Re: How long have you been a fan?

I was around -00 when I first heard "my sacrifice", saw its video on MTV, I thought this was great. It took me quite a while to find out title of that song. (About a year spended searching when I finally found out). So that song became my all time fav song, that is only band whose almost every song I've got and really kept followed. quite a tirade!

Re: How long have you been a fan?

I'm from the new Creed fans. I became a fan after hearing Overcome in 2009 and looked for more and I immediately fell in love with the band.
I'm sad that I wasn't fan in the glory days of the band, but where I'm from (Bulgaria) people don't know Creed ever existed.
Now Creed its my favorite band. So "Full Circle" is the album that got me loving them, although I think old ones are better.
