How rediculous is this?

It's quite sipmle really... Mark commands respect... because he played the kinda guitar that he wanted to play... not what was popular... he helped bring the SOLO BACK!!!!!!!! come on... sure he looks cool... but he really is largely responsible for bringing the "classic Rock" sound back...

You have totally missed the point.

I'm going back to watch The Matrix now.....have a good night.

you know what... i did at 1st... but i decided to go ahead and answer that part of it anyway... listen... no one is disagreeing that stapp has done some good things... i certainly am not... but mark does command respect for his abilities... i would say that stapp does too... he's a great lyricist... it is sad that he does not get that recognition...

Whats funny is that Metallica was named biggest dissappontment, yet Kirk Hammet was named best guitarist. And the sad thing is that Metallica put out an incredible album, that sounds nothing like what they have done before, which is good because they needed to explore other territory. Now if only Creed would do the same. Hopefully the new 'Stappless' Creed, whatelse should I call them, will freaking rock the world!

You know if you had a poll for best bands, creed would probably be on the top of that list. .

I find it interesting that people say that they respect Mark (or flip for that matter). Why? What is it that Mark does or has done that should earn him respect? Is it his stoic stance when he's onstage that commands it? Is it because people like his writing/playing abilities that earns him respect?.

yup, thats what does it for me. you think jumping around like youre on drugs makes any differnce? nope, all it makes you is mess up in your playing.

These men are far from perfect..you just don't hear about the things that Mark and Flip have done because perhaps they are a little bit more careful, and in general it's the frontman that gets the most exposure. .

ill agree with that

Blah Blah Blah....... give me a break already! Boy for them to be in the same category as Limp Dickless, that does not say much for the author.

Hey, that's what I call them (Limp Dickless) It's all I know them by anymore!! If or whenever I talk about them, it always comes out as Limp Dickless, I've been calling them that for SOOO long, I can't even call them by what they really go by!! It just always comes out that way!!
Anyways...I read the same kind of article on radio station website that I listen to, and as I read the article I was like, WTF!! I was thinking the same thing, that Creed hadn't done anything in 2003, so how could they have been one of the worst bands of 2003!! That kind of shit, REALLY pisses me off!!

Oh well...HAPPY NEW YEAR anyways!!
Rock On Creed Fans!! We RULE!!

wasen't Dave Grohl named best guitarist? anyhow how could Hammet be best guitarist when in my mind and believe me many, many others "St.Anger" is by far the worst Metallica album and is devoid of solos. I think Metallica have hanged around too long, perhaps for money, maybe they love the lifestyle too much but they haven't produced a good album since the early 90's which is really sad because they used to be so great!

Why should Mark earn more respect than Scott when it's Scott who founded and heads the With Arms Wide Open Foundation and does so many wonderful things for children and their families? Such a shame that the same people that pass judgement on him are most likely the same people who probably don't even know about all the good things that he has done...only know of him what they have read, which unfortunately may be more bad than good because of the way things operate these days.

Oh come on don't worry about it that much, don't let that shit get to you, what would they know, don't let it bother you, I don't let it bother me anymore like it used to, not really worth it.
