Additional comments about Chicago show
The one part of last night's Chicago show that made the trip almost worthwhile was the opening band, Local h. I would describe them as a rarity, bringing a powerful rock sound to the stage as opposed to the commercialized, pawned one that Creed followed with. Half way through Creed's drunken excuse for a set, I found myself wishing Local h was playing. How this group isn't more of a national act, I don't know. Last night will be the last time I see Creed in concert. I can't afford to waste $50 on that fake product. I would have rather spent the money to see the Bucs embarrass the Bears on national television 2 hours south in Champaign.

True fans
It's one thing to be a fan and stay by there side, but for the fans that where there in chicago it's a different story. We have a right to be pissed and voice our frustration of Stapp. It was honestly like being stabed in the back, or even worse in the heart. People who werent at the chicago show shouldn't post crap like oh your not true fans...because it hasn't happend to them just wait untill it does. As far as Creed not being able to bounce back without our support..after Chicago i don't think Stapp cares much about out support.

I don't want to get into a pissing contest with anybody, and you're right, Daygo23, you have the right to be pissed off, angry, irritated, whatever. I certainly would have been angry and disappointed, too. I got a little taste of Scott's recent behavior at the Penn State show last month, a shortened set, and some weird behavior. Granted, it wasn't nearly as bad as what happened in Chicago, but it still doesn't mean that one bad experience ruins the appreciation for what they have given to their fans over the years. I'm sorry, but in my opinion, people in this world are so quick to turn on each other because of one mistake or bad experience. I have the same right to post whatever *crap* I want about what I think about the fans.

Re: True fans
I'm sure he does, he just needs a break, hopefully things will get better, for the sake of his band, and himself

The only thing that gets me is, this was my first creed concert. I have all of their work, even the stuff before they were commercial like their live bootlegs from orlando's prison and pittsburg....so this was like a huge event for me.....i feel like i didn't even go see them i just saw like rehersals or something

I really used to like Creed, before they became so commercialized. The next thing you know they are on every music awards show, their music is sold to any advertising organization willing to pay a few extra bucks, and they're ripping Pearl Jam. I know they apologized for the PJ comments, but how could they rip Pearl Jam of all bands... Stapp should thank Eddie Vedder for creating a vocal sound that is easy for him to replicate. I'm sick of bands like Creed and the Who for selling their souls to anyone willing to buy. I guess I'm old fashioned, because I like bands that really play for the love of the music.... and I don't see that in Creed anymore.

My point was just the trend the band has taken.
