    I don't frequent tmz - are all their articles this poorly written? Does this even count as an article?

    It's sarcasm, I would think. I hope so anyway.

    Obama is to blame for everything bad that has ever happened in America.
    From Scott Stapps debt all the way back to and including the plague that wiped out the Jamestown settlers in 1607.

    Indeed! The PRS signature Tremonti line of guitars is totally badass, my buddy has one and it is a shredder.
    I said this on FB and got blasted but I expected that. My Own Prison wasn't a bad album. I have heard many lauded albums (Lazaretto for one) that aren't as enjoyable as My Own Prison. Scott Stapp is the douchiest of the douches, but it just wasn't a bad album, and too many people bash on it just because it's the cool thing to do. It's also the cool thing to bash on Nickleback...but they totally deserve it all lol

  • Honestly Stapp is a total douche, but he's a great lyricist! He writers amazingly. But his douchebaggery just outweighs his talent. His vocals are like warm if warm at all, he tries too hard, and it presents. But his lyrics are very well written!

    My buddy has two PRS and while the other is a "lower end" I prefer it over the Tremonti. The Tremonti is buttery soft to play, totally a lead guitar, and I am not a lead guitarist. I prefer something that puts up a little fight, as I am more accustomed to acoustic playing.

    I know tmz gets their story, do or die. Their paparazzi and those of other pimplike companies are typically hovering near my work's parking lot. Incidentally, the majority of them act like assholes.

    As to Stapp...not a fan of the music or voice, and find it pretty sad to see yet another given so much and pissed it away. Sounds like he still has access to his weapons since his wife decided not to pursue charges.

    Seems like he needs help, and now. Trying to convince someone so far gone is like screaming in the wind.

    (by the way, when I click on the link now, there's a bunch of weird "news" stories and close-up shots of I don't know who. Fuck you, tmz. And to think I used to respect Harvey Levin. Fuck you too, HL.)

  • Tmz is entertainment cancer. Stapp is on 60 day psych lockdown, which can only be good news for his loved ones. I hate creed, but I have seen so many disgusting jokes about scott merely because people don't like his music. He's a fucking human being with a problem. People make me sick.

    I'd have problems to if the mother of my kid tells me she had threesomes in our bed while I was on tour making all that cash. This guys had one fucked up life after fame. But then again, maybe he shouldn't have married a stripper. (I believe that's what I heard she was?)

    Ever seen that show about how winning the lottery changed someone's life?

    I wonder, if I had a shitload of money tossed at me (and for what, really?), would my general way of living change? Would my character change, my sometimes-irritating frugality?

    I sure as shit hope not. I don't think it would.

    Easy for me to say from here though.

    To be fair, while they aren't and don't pretend to be awesome writers (it's actually purposefully more of a comedy/satirical outfit than it is news, but without reporting fake stuff), their stories are actually pretty much always either accurate or editorial, and if they turn out to be inaccurate they always retract or correct. TMZ isn't like those gossip magazines that just publish lies.

    They shake your hand and they smile
    And they buy you a drink
    They say we'll be your friends
    We'll stick with you till the end
    Ah but everybody's only
    Looking out for themselves
    And you say well who can you trust
    I'll tell you it's just
    Nobody else's money
