Scott Stapp fan club...why?

rabidgopher04 · 12-29-2005, 02:07 AM

Hey all. Scott has a fan clun at friendsofscottstapp.com. Now that site has existed for a couple years, but here's my question: why on earth would anyone join that fan club especially after the Creed Ink debacle?

Why waste money when they've already proven they can't manage a fan club? I pity the fools who sign up for that.

And I dont even know what friendsofscottstapp.com. is. I mean, whats the difference between that site and passionbreedsfollowers.com ????

Tons of stappsites and he never even tried to show some consideration with his fans, like avoiding appear drunk in tv...

Why have a sepparet page for that? Can't that page be inbedded in scottstapp.com?

www.ScottStapp.com is an official site, owned by Wind-Up. www.FriendsOfScottStapp.com is another official site, owned by Scott himself.
www.PassionBreedsFollowers.com is a fan site, and not at all attached to Scott.

I've read a bit about this fan club on PBF, but really, I don't know a whole lot about it. I do know that it costs $25 to join and that gives you access to a message board(which will be created soon, I suppose). I guess Scott is supposed to drop in on the message board every now and then and post. I think I also heard something about a blog by him as well. I guess the idea in charging money to join the club is to keep out haters. A hater who pays $25 just to join and bash Scott at his own board would be, well, a huge idiot. By charging $25, it will most likely only have TRUE fans of Stapp in there, and not some of the cynics present on other forums. That's at least what I think the idea is, but I don't know. PBF seemed to have a lot of info on it, so for those of you who want to learn more, I guess paying a visit to their forums would be a wise choice.

It's also supposed to give you access to presales for concert tickets.

Haha, that is so true! I'm sure there'll probably be a couple of idiots who pay the 25 bucks just to bash Scott at his own forum.

Thanks for mentioning that, Steve. I totally forgot about it.

I think that, for the Stapp fans, that's a pretty good opportunity...other bands offer that as well...access to pre-sale, special seating, and after-show would be more than worth $25 bucks to a fan...when Queensryche goes on tour, I just might join THEIR fan club to have access to after-show...

It sounds like nothing more than another way to make a quick buck off gullible fans.
