Stapp to Write Book (New Interview)
(Thanks to PBF)
I was gonna post this in the press thread but this deserves it's own...new interview with Nate & Murphy: http://y101.podbean.com/ Another honest interview and he mentions a book that's in the works which should be very interesting. Also no hoarseness (or so it seems) :) |

Re: Stapp to Write Book (New Interview)
That is good stuff! It sounds like he really has changed. I'm glad to hear his relationship with God is much better.
|
Re: Stapp to Write Book (New Interview)
Yeah, sounds like it will be quite the read. Plus he sounds very happy in this interview and much less horse.
Hooray for Stapp! |
Re: Stapp to Write Book (New Interview)
"God...God...God" >.> No wonder why people think Creed is christian rock. It's all he talks about.
Never figured Scott as a writer, doing this, I suppose there may not be another solo album. Writing a book takes a lot of time. Will I read it? Day one purchase. |
Re: Stapp to Write Book (New Interview)
I love reading about artists that i've followed for years.
I've always wanted to see a behind the music/book written about the members of creed when they were first starting out. Sometimes it's encouraging to new artists to see where their heroes started. I remember reading somewhere that stapp was living on a mattress in a run down apartment in tallahassee by himself at one point. We all know tremo was the best chile's cook in the world. I personally always wondered what kind of equipment they used before they had the record deal. Obviously when you get the deal the record label shoots you an advance for equipment and such, but i always wondered if tremonti ever played anything besides his 4 Les Pauls through the Triple Rectifier's and Twin Reverbs. I would love to hear if he ever played with an epiphone through a combo amp. That would make me feel less poor lol. |
Re: Stapp to Write Book (New Interview)
Icedmofo, you never saw Creed-behind the music??
|
Re: Stapp to Write Book (New Interview)
I did see it, what i meant is i want to know more about creed before it was "Creed"
There was no detailed info about where they were just prior to record deal socially, financially, or equipment-wise. They sort of touched on it for about 5 seconds then talked pretty much entirely about stapp post record deal the rest of the time. We all know where stapp came from as far as how he was raised, but i want to know how they lived and stuff. Honestly i just want to feel better about my current financial/equipment situation to hear about where they started. |

Yep, I would love to know that as well. Speaking of that, I have just remembered that some time ago I read some short mention about an unauthorized video called Riding The Edge which took a special look at he growth of Creed and was released in 1999. But it was also mentioned that´s the unofficial release. Anyone else heard about that? I´m just wondering, maybe we could find out some interesting facts watching that. :) And on a side note, is it true that Scott Stapp´s origin (besides he is part Cherokee Indian) is part Italian as well? |

Great interview. Stand-up guy. Proud to have him as a brother in Christ! Great example to the rest of the rock world that you can make great music while still striving to live a moral, honorable life. |
Re: Stapp to Write Book (New Interview)
You know its possible to live a moral and honorable life without believing in Christ right?
I agree with Nagpo. Calm down on the Jesus talk there buddy. Even the interviewer was like "whats up with this guy?" |
Re: Stapp to Write Book (New Interview)
^Um he never said that... he just said he's proud to have Stapp as a brother in Christ which I am as well, chill out. As for Scott speaking about his faith, I'm glad he's able to open up about it now & most importantly he's happy so if he wants to talk about what's helped him through the tough times he certainly can.

Re: Stapp to Write Book (New Interview)
He implied it heavilly.
When you're trying to prove your band is not a christian band saying thank god at the end of every sentence kinda defeats that. |
Re: Stapp to Write Book (New Interview)
lol Wow you must be sensitive. Scott can talk about God whenever he wants, a lot of Christians are in secular bands believe it or not.

Re: Stapp to Write Book (New Interview)
Not sensitive. Just not a big fan of people like that. I'm having a rought christmas and was pretty jumpy. Very very sorry J-dawg. I'll keep it in check next time. Religious debate is for the faith forum (slaps self)

Re: Stapp to Write Book (New Interview)
Whoops. double post.

It's been a rough year for a lot of people... but when you say you don't like "people like that" you mean Christians? if that's the case I feel sorry for you.

I think he meant people that spew their beliefs every time they open there mouths. It gets old. Like there trying to prove a point to themselves. Or 'spread the good word'>> And, so what if he didn't like Christians? Last I checked, Christians don't like, for example, Gays and would very much like to restrict their rights. I know that this does not apply to all Christians and it would be ignorant to generalize. But if he said he did not like Christians I wouldn't blame him or call him out on it. Especially if he were gay himself and wanted to marry. |

The only time he's spoken in depth about his faith was the recent interview he did with Dawson McAllister & the "Listenin" interview and even that wasn't pushing anything on anyone...so imho you guys need to take a closer look. |
Re: Stapp to Write Book (New Interview)
Yeah i was referring to people who do nothing but talk about god and jesus 24/7 and who think that everything good that happens is because of god. Its like in Scotts case. Don't thank god. Thank Mark Tremonti X D.
People need to give themselves more credit. Scott beat his addiction. Not god. I know a lot of people that have wronged people but believe they are forgiven in the eyes of the lord and have no problem with the fact that the person they wronged hates them. Most things to do with religion and religious people make me sick. Like how nagpo brought up. Gay men have lesser rights in america then the adverage citizen. Why? because a book says so. That is FUCKED UP. I believe in a god but honestly. The world would be better without religion of any kind. It makes no sense how still if somebody says there is a god and how much they love god they get a pat on the back. But if somebody says they don't believe in god they are immoral jackasses. |

Well, since you opened this can... It's amazing to me how arrogant we as humans are. Colossians 1:17 tells us flat out that the Creator holds all things together. The very atoms that make up the cells of our body would fly apart if it were not for Him, not to mention that we cannot even take our next breath on our own. We do NOTHING under our own power, only what our Creator has given us the power to do. This has nothing to do with religion or religious debate, because it's not up for debate. You say you believe in God, but if you believe in God, you must believe His Word, because they are 1 in the same according to John 1:1. So when Scott gives God and reading the Bible credit for his life change, he is speaking the truth. And to try to clarify some Christian beliefs... 1. As you said, you can be moral and not believe in God. This is true, however my hamburger illustration was meant to make the point that there is no point to living a "moral" life if there is nothing behind it - ie. a relationship with the Creator. For the Christian, a relationship with the Creator is exactly what His Word says it is: it is a relationship whereby we humans who have all fallen short of the mark of sinless perfection (Romans 3:23) have accepted the fact that Christ loved us so much that He came to this Earth and died our death that we deserve as sinners on the cross. He then went on to defeat death by coming back to life 3 days later. (John 3:16, Romans 10:9, etc) The fact that we accept this truth guarantees our eternity in Heaven, rather than Hell (or "the place of eternal punishment", "lake of fire", etc - Matthew 25:46, John 3:16, John 3:36, Revelation 20:15). The natural tendency once you have accepted this truth is to strive to live a moral and honorable life, not just for yourself or others, but for the One who died for you, who even made it possible for you to choose Heaven. 2. You mentioned "lesser rights" for gay men. The Bible gives several clear examples of God's disapproval of homosexual behavior (Leviticus 18:22, Leviticus 20:13, Romans 1:27, 1 Corinthians 6:9-10). If you read Genesis 19, God destroys an entire city because of its sexual perversion. Our American heritage that began with the Framers of the Constitution is based upon the Bible and the values therein. As a Christian, I don't hate those who practice homosexual behavior - they, like myself, were created in God's image (Genesis 1:27). Also like myself, they were born into a sinful nature. However, the homosexual has chosen to embrace that sinful nature, rather than repent of it. I therefore hate sin, just as God does. 3. To those who do not believe in God at all, or you have bought into the lie of evolution or any other "scientific" explanation, I beg you to reconsider what you think you know. Genesis 1:1 says: "In the beginning God created..." Romans 1:20 says: "For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse." |
Re: Stapp to Write Book (New Interview)
I think we can all agree that Scott is a better person and his relationship with God has helped him overcome this addiction. Even if you don’t share his Christian beliefs and believe it is all in his head, both faith and family are helping him out. In my opinion, he got himself into the mess by running from God.

@iceman - You can quote bible verses all you want. The bible is wrong. It is factitious and as far as I am concerned the bible is really the first step to skepticism.

Re: Stapp to Write Book (New Interview)
I'm not meaning to bring this up again, but there was a very ignorent comment made about christians dismissing dinsours.
The bible even mentions dinosours, so why would christians need to dismiss it? Most believe dinosours were killed in the flood. Sorry, just felt that needed to be said for those ignorent on the subject. Thanks. About the interview, it was very good to hear Scott mentioning his relationship with Christ, I have been waiting for years to hear that. It brings a smile to my face. |
