Guitar virtuoso Troy Stetina speaks about Creed
The following was taken from www.stetina.com board. For those who don't know him, Troy Stetina is a guitar virtuoso that gave Mark lessons last year. He released a few records, but he's not mainstream. He also wrote several books and articles about learning guitar.

This is what's wrong with the music industry. It sucks that creativity has to be *molded* to fit the market trends. Grrrrr. Thanks for the post, Marcos. Interesting read.

I agree 100% with you Dogstar, I was actually the one that posted the orignal question by asking people if they liked Creed because of Mark's involvement in Troy's lastest project. I was a little taken a back by the counter culture running though this bunch but those that took the time to listen to Creed liked what they heard. One can only hope that Mark indeed does have some shredding on this album and in any new songs on the anthology.

that was you? cool!
yeah, according to Michael, Mark wrote a song that becomes heavy, has a lot shredding then goes all bluesy... that's a song that would probably come up on the 4th album, but it seems now it's coming up on the other band... I hope they add this to the anthology, coz it by the description, it sounds great!

About the bluesey song with the shredding solo I guess its possible to use at least the main riff and perhaps the solo in both "Stappless" (LOL) and in Creed's best of and rarities collection just like Times of Trouble and Footsteps which most will know are basically identical songs with different singers and lyrics.

sounds good, hide.
I read somewhere that it seems Mark wrote all of hide, including lyrics, but Stapp changed the lyrics later... I think it was supposed to be a love song, or something to that effect... I don't remember now.

Since everyone seems to hang on every word that Michael says...here is exactly what he posted about Hide. The REAL GabrielPosts: 56(5/18/03 2:19:24 am)Reply Re: What Creed lyrics did Mark write exactly? While Mark wrote the music and melodys for Hide I think the lyrics were a collaboration. I heard Mark play the song before he presented it to Scott and the lyrics were different. The song was called Hide at the time but the content was about being scared to commit in a relationship. Scott took the idea and made it his own while changing the lyrics to its present form. Some lyrics in there might be ones Mark wrote but I honestly can't remember the lyrics to the the original version so I cant be sure. I guess you could equate it to movies. Mark came up with the story idea and Scott wrote the script, if that analogy helps at all.Michael |

thanks heaps for posting that it clears everything up. It would be great if in this anthology we could get some information on other such matters, perhaps how songs such as Hide were originally supposed to be and the song that Mark wrote for his wife.

Yeah, that was it! Thank you, Frankie. I didn't remember it was from one of Michael's posts.
