  • How the hell did they sell millions of CDs? Who are these people that buy this Creed crap?

    I'd be really dispointed to hear that members on this board have purchased a Creed CD.

    i am so very much in agreement with you...someone told me the other day that they couldn't tell the difference between creed and pearl jam and I almost passed out right there..

  • this all proves one thing once and for all...jesus will get you nowhere

    well i think it's even more funny that in the article he says he hasn't even really been a religious person but was just falling back on religion because his life has consisted of nothing but addictions to different drugs and just overall obnoxious behavior

    No No No. THey wouldn't sell any more records. He would just become more of a loser.

    - the name of the band who does this song escapes me at the moment, but it seemed appropriate for this thread...

    Scott Stapps epic meltdown and Neil Young on the cover...this is the best rolling stone issue in a while...
    Who cares if the world is going down the toilet? Eddie Vedder got his mojo back!
  • An outstandingly outspoken american christian with a gun fetish? (and if he has sub machine guns its a fetish) very surprising....

    " claims Dave Grohl has "a little cock," "

    can't stand the good one's can you scott?

    Glad he didn't kill himself though.

    The music scene needs a "town drunk" that everybody hates.
    Come on pilgrim you know he loves you..

  • That article is funny shit. It made it a better day.
  • I feel bad for Tremonti, his reputation will forever be linked to Creed. I don't care what you guys have to say, that man is talented.
    I caught a flash of flash of your smile through the fog of a dream, I'll have a hell of a time I clearly see, I can't be by your side, see you when I sleep.

  • I take issue with all this Scott Stapp bashing...I mean it is true that the music was shitty. His life sucks right now, he tried to blow his fucking brains out for god sakes, don't make fun outta that because depression isn't a funny issue. I do know that from experience. Don't make fun cause his life is shitty right now as it could happen to any of you. He's nearly destroyed his marriage and his career, his health and his life and that's serious. Bash the music and the public persona all you want put draw a line and ripping the piss out of his personal circumstances...

    i agree with you to an extent. he deserves to be bashed for his shitty music and his personality (drug induced or not) which resulted in the demise of his band. but i do hope he cleans up and lives a better life. especially for his son's sake

    " "Every band that ever opened for us pretty much said, 'Yeah, that tour was great, we loved opening for you guys, but Scott never even looked at us.' The Mayfield Four opened for us on one tour. I was talking to their bass player after a show and Scott came over and asked him to get him a Coke. He thought he was catering." "

    ouch.
    reading this article made me feel really bad for his band. tho i'd still like to know where dexter holland got his shirt.
    also the more i read it the more i realised (not that i hadn't known before) how eddie is so much on the other side of the spectrum... like two different poles or something... besides, even when it looks like eds had too much wine he still puts on a good show!
    live pearl jam is best pearl jam

    haha, i love Tremonti's response to a Creed reunion, that he never wants to play a Creed song again, and he cant even listen to their music. Just goes to show that Stapp was the "dictator" of the band, pushing them to do what they did not want to...fucking hilarious

    I heard that Chuck Norris teabagged him for looking at his beard the wrong way. That would mess anybody up for life...if they survived.

    i'm sure people have seen this. it's on the rollingstone homepage. i've never felt so guilty for laughing at something hysterically than i did after reading this article. i mean.....he tried to kill himself which is always horrible, but i've always felt like scott stapp is one of the truly crappy people in music. not just a shitty "artist", but a shitty person as well

    and i figure this is pj related because he's done a horrible job of ripping off their music for years

    Ive never understood the hatred for Stapp thing.
    I mean, sure hes egotistical but there are a lot less talented and annoying people in the industry. I feel really bad for him and all of his troubles. He needs to lighten up and try to be a bit less intense, maybe that would help..

    Conan OBrians "Walker Texas Ranger" clips ruined Chuck Norris in my eyes for life, gutwrenchingly funny stuff :D
