Statement from Creed Management

[hockeymom97]

Dear Creed Fan,

The band has heard that you are unhappy with the quality of the recent Creed show in Chicago.
We apologize if you don't feel that the show was up to the very high standards set by our previous shows
in Chicago. We also understand and appreciate the fact that there has been much concern about
Scott's health and we want to assure everyone that he is doing very well and is taking a much needed
break at home in Orlando after a very long and rigorous touring year. The band has plans to start writing
material for their next record later this year and plan to return to Chicago next year to play a show that
will hopefully be better than any of the numerous shows we've played there. For now we hope that you
can take some solace in the fact that you definitely experienced the most unique of all Creed shows and
may have become part of the unusual world of rock and roll history! Again, we apologize if you didn't enjoy
the show but remember, "It's only rock and roll but we like it!"

Have a great year!
Creed

Keeping their mouth shut!

"We apologize if [YOU] don't feel that the show was up to the very high standards"

"we apologize if [YOU] didn't enjoy the show"

Yeah right...the show was fine, it was ME that was unhappy.

What a sham!!! This response adds salt to the wound...

What Jerks...

I am not sure how to take this response from JHMP. It kind of seems like to bad so sad. But on the other hand I think that they were advised by legal counsil not to apologize. Then they would be admitting to doing something wrong and there could be legal ramifications for it. I did expect they would do a fan appreciation show like they did in Las Vegas when his voice wasn't up to par by his standards. I still have to think about this. Don't have to much to say yet. I will still go to see another concert and still be a fan unless it becomes the normal for the concerts to go this way.

HELL YA

I guess we have our statement.......

[crest tattoo]

I feel sorry for your son Hockeymom. Have you told him? I will go to another concert, but I'd be amazed at how Chicago responds to him if he came back this next summer. He was booed off stage once...I'd hate to see it again.

XTerminator...I like your point. I agree, very unique.

[TeriB19]

I can understand the general concensus over the letter sent out by JHMP, but did anyone really, honestly expect a letter from Scott saying "I'm sorry I was piss-eyed drunk, I'll try really hard not to get so sh**faced next year!"? I think whocares had a point, what exactly would make ALL the people happy? You can't please all of the people all of the time. Please don't start bashing me, I respect the opinions of all who felt this was an empty apology, but by the same token, with the legal aspect lingering as a potential problem, I would say take what you can get and move on.

That is the most pathetic thing I have ever read. Do they think that this is going to make anyone feel better about wasting their money on that show? I'm speechless

ROTFLMAO!!

Here's how I replied:

What a laugh!

Being a loyal Creed fan, this really does offend me. I expected at LEAST
some kind of personal apology from Scott or some type of statement from
him -- not one of Creed's management team. It gives the impression that the
band is not personally concerned about their fans, and that we can just be
pacified with a poorly-worded spin statement. Just as long as the $$ keeps
rolling in!

"...It's only rock and roll but we like it..."? What kind of a moron do you
take me for? Come on. I really hope this does not reflect the sentiment of
the band. An apology was the bare minimum, and Chicago fans didn't get
anything near that -- just some political spin from a management goon.

Severely disappointed,

Nicholas F. Singh

You forgot to add that you would like Scott to personally come to each concert-goers' house and kiss their ass. Maybe you could put a ps. I honestly don't think anyone will be happy with anything. Just IMO.

[hotforscott]

I was steering clear of this thread, but I think that Teri said it quite well. How would they make EVERYONE happy. I think that they said what they could. I am sure Scott will have something to say when they come back to Chicago. So, let's move on.

[velocityidp]

When someone makes an honest apology, it means that he recognizes what he did was wrong, and that he realizes that he disrespected (to an extreme level) very loyal Creed fans.

This is not "butt-kissing," it's just decency.

This is the MINIMUM I'd expect from anyone. And then you have the whole refund/re-concert issue.... guess we won't be getting either!
