Marky Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 As first tipped last month, Creed is hammering out details for a lucrative 2009 reunion tour, sources tell Billboard. The Scott Stapp-led group, which was one of the top sellers of the past decade, has not performed since a rancorous split in June 2004. Stapp promptly embarked on a solo career, while guitarist Mark Tremonti, drummer Scott Phillips and original bassist Brian Marshall formed Alter Bridge with vocalist Myles Kennedy and released two albums. The 2004 Wind-Up debut, "One Day Remains," sold 496,000 copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan; a 2006 follow-up for Universal, "Blackbird," has moved 227,000. However, Kennedy is rumored to be the top contender to replace Robert Plant for a tour with Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones. And following a recent USO tour performing for American servicemen oversees, Stapp is said to be in prime physical and mental condition. As such, there are "significant dollars" on the table for a Creed trek, according to sources close to the situation, who say an official announcement could be imminent. A spokesperson for Wind-Up tells Billboard, "There have been some talks, but it would be premature to comment on them at this time." Creed has sold 26.1 million albums in the United States since 1997, according to Nielsen SoundScan. The group was also a significant touring presence, having grossed more than $70.3 million from 220 shows reported to Billboard Boxscore between November 1997 and December 2002. http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/news/genera...te_in_2009.html Fuck me, I like them, but 4 years they've been apart, that's ridiculous!

Ant Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 I remember hearing the last Creed shows consisted of Stapp's pain-killer bloated ass rolling around on stage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

appetite for illusions Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 That's depressing, seeing as Alter Bridge are one of the best bands of the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Apollo Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Alter Bridge were a decent band. That guy has a pretty good voice. I'm not a huge Creed fan. But they did have a couple catchy tunes and Scott whatever has a pretty strong voice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Apollo Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 (edited) Odd that people don't like this band becuz of the personality of the lead singer.And they are far from a pearl jam wannabee band. Their music sounds nothing like PJ.I always find it humorous that Creed and Limp Bizkit are two bands that it's "cool" to hate. Just because the lead singer is a prick.
