Can someone explain to me why the idea of a Stapp solo/side project is appealing?

Stapp's nowhere near ready to actually *play* music, much less create any credible works worthy of ever being heard.

How does he expect to make music? What? Is he going to go pop? Soft rock?

Bleh.

He's got a great voice, granted. But, without Mark's riffs, solo's, bridges, and the like ...

What's the point? Heh.

It'd be like ... a whole CD. Of "Lullaby"-type music. Hmph.

I'll buy whatever Mark makes. Stapp? Nah.

I hope it's not soft rock or Lullably-type stuff. I agree, bleh.

But really, we don't know what he's capable of. He does have a great voice and maybe he has ideas for what he wants to do/write. I would imagine he would have to hook up with other musicians to make it work, but it would be more of a backing band rather than a new band, I think. If he ends up doing something like Chris Cornell's Euphoria Morning, that could be really sweet. We really don't know what his ideas are, so why judge before we know what he wants to do? I'm trying to keep an open mind to see what they both do.

Yeah I don't think he'll go for anything soft rock like Lullaby. Yes, that was a very good song and I do love it, but I wouldn't say it's one of my favourite Creed songs, lol. I'm sure you can all relate to that.

Well I don't know what he'll go for, but I hope he doesn't go for soft rock. That wouldn't bring out half of his talent.

Dude that's just shocking, Stapp going pop? Yeah right when pigs fly :eek:

I totally agree with you, Dogstar. I know both he and Mark wrote Creed's songs but I think he's very capable with some other musicians backing him up to make a great cd.

Tremonti's new CD will be teh roxor of my soxors :)
