Mark Tremonti and Scott Stapp interview for CNN

[XGreenmachine]

Love creed man. They're so epic

[XGreenmachine]

Seriously hes got a point man. You are a jeaulous prick btw creeds awesome

[jazzdeanesp]

Where does Scotts daft singing voice come from then??

[NJROTCAREA12TP]

when you luagh i bet we was think about the video where he did kung fu

[timborocksloud]

Tremonti = one of the greatest guys in rock and roll

Stapp = toolbox

[alloutrockfan]

@timborocksloud

stapp = the greatest guy in rock and roll

timborocksloud = toolbox

[Rotron9573]

@alloutrockfan uh no, stapp is not the greatest anything in anything, I can think of about 25 people who are more successful in their rock and roll careers, yes I said careers

[alloutrockfan]

@Rotron9573 okay you said careers....congrats. good job wasting your time on a guy that doesn't give a damn about anyone's opinion (including yours). :) Stapp is pretty much the man. 40 million albums sold and counting. new creed record next year. awesome. and before you start....no i'm not basing their awesomeness off of their record sales.

[zume2600]

@alloutrockfan wow. i just read your comment and realized you are a total fucking piece of shit. no wonder people disagree with your dumbass, meaningless opinion. by the way, what do you do for a living you worthless loser???

[die0eule0ulrich]

mark doesnt act as if he has frogiven scott :D he looks so much happiert when giving an interview with myles :) both great bands but alter bridge > Creed

[alloutrockfan]

@die0eule0ulrich hop off of myles. lol

[wesdhill]

scott answers for mark..ego man

[hosersupreme]

You know, it's true - 10 years > 6 months. I was elated when I heard Creed was getting back together, because I've been listening to them since before they hit it big. I hope that both Creed and Alter Bridge both continue to make amazing music for many years.

[Willferox]

I expected Scott to speak in that stupid way he sings

[stalacko]

Amazing how the spend 6.30 min in a interview, without looking at eachother.

[Zidanos]

best voice with best guitar player, that's all you need

[MRASIANAIRE]

Scott has a good singing voice.

[4alexza]

What happened that they broke up in the first place?

[thesatchmanrules]

This is the first time I've actually used the word...but goddamn there are a lot of "trolls" on this thread. Too bad there isn't a software program out there that filters out assholes on video comment forums.

[paulyboy911]

I love Creed. I love everything Mark creates and I have no issues with Scott Stapp. I think he's really tried to redeem himself and I give him a lot of credit for that. That being said i CAN NOT WAIT for the new Alter Bridge album due out the second week of October

[lZlKing]

Fuck Creed, worst mainstream band alive, Alter Bridge Crushes this band and other bands to come.

[paulyboy911]

@lZlKing you should really give Creed a break. I mean dissing Creed is just like dissing Alter Bridge. Mark, Fip and Brian are huge creative elements of both bands. Not being a big fan of Scott Stapp is your right, but I think they guys are equally proud of their work with both bands. I prefer Alter Bridge over Creed as well, but Mark is one of my favorite players and I love all of his work. I think Full Circle and all the albums were fantastic creative efforts. just need to open your mind.

[1stNightingale]

@lZlKing HAHAHAHHAHAHHHAHA MAINSTREAM?

BTW AlterBridge is exactly Creed minus Scott Stapp.

He can not make an entire band shit when most fothe sound comes form Mark Tremonti's skills.

[lZlKing]

@1stNightingale I just like how little 13 year-old's thinking they're logically better than someone one; just replies with a "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA" in all caps. And also, i did know that Alter Bridge is Creed minus Scott, its that Scott Stapp was shit, Just like an old heart with a plaque infection, Myles Kennedy and Tremonti brought more depth in the same band with a new style and difference than creed. So if you are gonna reply kiddo, use some logic first.

[1stNightingale]

@lZlKing I love how you bring logic as a defense when you call Creed Mainstream and also call me 13 without actually even bothering to click a link.

Many people would not know the similarities between Creed and since you know the members doesn't mean you know the musical and artistic similarities. Yes his voice second guitar and jazz and blues background gives Alter Bridge a slight spice of life in some of Myles Kennedy's more influenced songs and the second album but really they are so similar.

[lZlKing]

@1stNightingale Logic is not a defense, it's what you should learn dumbass, and clicking a "link" to your channel would not matter, because you would lie about your age.

And Second of all, your paragraph of nonsense bullshit did not make any sense, There ISN'T no music similarities in Creed to Alter Bridge, Alter Bridge is an ENTIRELY different band than Creed. But no, you're throwing your stupid fake knowledge of how mark's guitar skills is mixed with a jazz and blues background. Reply simpler.

[1stNightingale]

@lZlKing The problem is you said i should use logic and then you clearly didn't when labelling them mainstream and me 13 which im not and even if you were to google my name you would find facebook myspace etc. saying i am, in fact, 20.

I feel sorry for someone who will actually criticise someone "Logic" and then use none of it. Myles has performed in multiple Jazz bands and also claims to be inspired by soul jazz and blues and even modern acoustic work with a touch of pop. Get it right.

[bobo77bob]

@lZlKing actually theres a lot of similarities and they are not really that different have you ever actually listened to Creed?

[bobo77bob]

@lZlKing ps why are you so angry?

[bobo77bob]

@lZlKing and ps again i dont see your logic at all just rage

[lZlKing]

@1stNightingale And what i mean by "ENTIRELY Different" i mean by how the band [Brian Marshall, Scott Phillips, Mark Tremonti] Made a huge step producing they're art with Myles Kennedy, And if you're still gonna bring the bullshit "Creed is Similar because of 3 of the band members listed" then don't bother replying with your poor knowledge.

[1stNightingale]

@lZlKing I dont usually do this but i might call troll cause for someone to speak about logic & then use so very little of it is ridiculous. If you studied music you can see many of the similar timings, chords & messages in multiple songs from them. For someone to have an issue with Creed & not with Alter Bridge can only be about voice or some psychological/socialogical issue driving them away from a band that sounds performs & writes very similar & sometimes exactly like Alter Bridge.

[lZlKing]

@1stNightingale Well it looks like you are still flipping my words/comebacks etc. this is why i said use LOGIC, and i dont really give a shit about your age, you sure as hell don't act like it. And second of all, i doubt you know the bands deeper history, so your arguments are invalid and you are just throwing them in to twist mine around. Like i said in the first time, do not reply back unless you use Logic, and to you, Logic is an Understatement [mainly because you cannot use it correctly]

[1stNightingale]

@lZlKing What did i actually "flip" problem with youtube mate is that all your comments are recorded and its obvious if i "flipped" anything. Also i am the one acting mature and you are the one insulting name calling and uses words you dont understand because of a jest at you calling Creed mainstream, a point you have yet to address. I am using perfect knowledgable founded logic. You are either misled or just too lazy to google anything and find a reputable source like his own biographical page.

[lZlKing]

@1stNightingale Clearly you don't understand what words you flipped in my statements, and that is why yours are bogus, and you were not acting mature, you are basing the "matureness" you claim by your bogus statements alone. My name calling does represent your paragraphs of bullshit ofcourse, And ofcourse you are not using Logic, you rejected that kind of sentencing in the first place, just read back your Bullshit paragraphs and maybe you will also stop contradicting.

[1stNightingale]

@lZlKing Again you prove nothing and you dont point out anything where i am actually wrong. Instead you blanket all my statements with Bullshit. You are jsut shouting your opinion and forgetting what sin front of you. I have read all this ages ago off Myles Kennedy's biographical site and i recently checked for your sake to see if was easily accessible on Wikipedia and it is yet you still seem to say im bullshitting. Everyone else will find what im saying is true i have no reason to talk to you.

[lZlKing]

@1stNightingale I don't care about what you think of MY knowledge, but its more misleading when you are googling statements [like yours] because you don't know ANYTHING about the histories of alter bridge and creed. I am using my OWN knowledge of what i have in the past wiki'd and googled, watched videos about AB and Creed, you apparently just overlook those knowledge sources and throw them into your paragraphs oh denial. So in all means, you should not contradict and twist my knowledge.

[1stNightingale]

@lZlKing So the fact i have googled wiki'ed and heard from myles himself that he started out in jazz is more misleading than your googling and wiki'ing and absolute lack of any information to contest what im saying. Go to school learn how to debate. If you acted like this in court youd be thrown out. No point wasting my time talking to someone who refuses to learn anything, insults the calm rational party and blatently avoids any intelligent, constructive conversation.

[lZlKing]

@1stNightingale What's more blatant is your stubborness saying i have no knowledge, and yet you do not know me. And yet your side of debate is just flipping my words and bending this debate your way with self absorbing. If you think you know about Both the bands than i do, keep thinking that way, my opinions act as facts to you, thats why if you read your reply, you get frustrated and act like you know more than i do.

[1stNightingale]

@lZlKing I never said you have no knowledge im saying you have yet to show you have any knowledge on this situation. You have not shown anything there is no facts you have stated and i certainly am not frustrated by your comments im just realising now that there is no improving with you. You have also yet to say what words if any i have "flipped" you are yet to say anything that is founded and believable.

[lZlKing]

@1stNightingale You are basically repeating yourself, even with more blindness to even look at my Logic and my Facts, but its clearly that you ignore my arguments because you are afraid to be wrong. But go ahead and keep flipping my words and thinking you know better than i do. So from your Blatant Ignorance of a Brick wall structure of yours, i will be the one to Walk away as the Bigger and Mature being [Someone you cannot be] replying to this is an honest Insecurity issue.

[1stNightingale]

@lZlKing OMG one comment ago you repeated yourself in multiple comments as you are doing now you hypocritical idiot. You have not stated one fact so there is nothing to ignore. There is no flipping and anybody else can see that but you because well you're the one flipping words to say that. I am blatantly ignorant of a brick wall? You need more Psych and English lessons. I am currently at Uni doing Psychology, these are not insecurities, it is my Responsibility Complex i feel i need to help you.

[1stNightingale]

@lZlKing You are full of Defence Mechanism's. Compensating by swearing and insulting (though i did out of frustration once). Denial by literally saying what im saying is wrong when many sources contest that. Rationalisation when you say that its my ignorance and immaturity for why i dont agree with you when there is nothing to agree with. Projection by shifting the character you saw in me earlier to leave the argument to yourself because you unconsciously want to be like that.

Continuing...

[1stNightingale]

@lZlKing Intellectualisation ignoring emotions, feelings, factual basis and sense by acting as if you are greater and/or using language as a way of trying to supersede the attendee to the issue. BTW My class is loving studying you over youtube but with a grain of salt, i know its unethical but.... My replies may be a waste of my time but i admit i have an issue where i want to help everyone and i seem not to realise when its a dead end. The teacher and other students want me to stop. Sorry bye.

[1stNightingale]

@lZlKing According to a rough draft of Cattell's Personality factor model you are somewhere between a Creative Artist and a Criminal. Good going. You are also on the negative scale of Costa and McCrae five factor model according to Agreeableness. The problem is until you recognise you cognitive component is based on emotion rather than logic you will always have an attitude problem. You keep trying to your Informational power but you have yet to show any information. So there is no obedience.

[lZlKing]

@1stNightingale And i do prove anything you said, you just never fucking read my replies, you take 2-3 looks of the facts i state and you blow them outta porportion. "forgetting what sin front of me"? Now are you really trying to think bring a 'Sin' Textured portion into an argument about Ab and Creeds history? Thats just the attitude of your argument i would expect on your Bullshit paragraphs. And if you never had a reason to talk to me, then why go against what i know about AB and creed.

[1stNightingale]

@lZlKing Lol i have read every single one again now for your satisfaction and never once do you actually state anything that you know that might actually create another side to this argument instead you just blanket argue which doesn't prove anything and just makes you look like you dont know what you are talking about. For fucks sake that SIN was a typo. Its "Whats in front of you" saying "What Sin front of you" doesn't make sense. You are the ones whos flipped and misread everything for you.

[lZlKing]

@1stNightingale Read them again, but your ignorance is IGNORING my statements and arguments and opinions, because you think only your Opinions/statements etc. are valid. So technically, Arguing with you is like Debating to a Brick wall [i know you will flip this fact about you]. And your typos do not enhance your bullshit either, no one is amused; so get over it. The REAL Sin is clearly Your Stubborn Illness of your Ignorance.

[1stNightingale]

@lZlKing You need to stop butchering English to make yourself sound smarter "your ignorance is ignoring"? that is implied. You have made no founded statements and since mine are founded i do not think mine are right i know they are right unless other founded arguments contest my statements. ...I wasn't trying to amuse with the type-o's its... a type-o as in its a error in the message. The sentence doesn't even make sense so its obvious it was a type-o.

So its the illness that is stubborn not me?

[lZlKing]

@1stNightingale If you think you know more about the bands than i do, so the best you could have done is IGNORED my opinion, but yet you had nothing better to do is post an obnoxious comment that started it all. So you started this whole argument and you try to end it with your ignorance saying everything you say is more correct and relying off my statements and flip them in your way. And i still dont see why you reply, It must be Stubborness or Insecurities, you figure it out yourself.

[1stNightingale]

@lZlKing Yet you choose to argue with me and not be constructive at any time so therefore you technically are being more obnoxious. All i did was correct you on something small that humoured me. It is sensible for me to ignore your opinion but i tend not to cause alot of peoples opinions matter and im not always right. You could have proved me wrong but instead you hide behind logic which you are clearly not using and dont prove anything. I reply because i vainly think i can teach you something.

[lZlKing]

@1stNightingale This paragraph was expected, you are contradicting what you did and didn't do, i chose to argue with you to see your own wrong doing, but you refuse to look at your mistakes and your knowledge of denial, i honestly don't know why replying to me would make a difference to you. But simply i cannot learn from an ignorant being, so in turn i forward my arguments against yours. And I'm quite surprised you are on Youtube every time i do reply, most likely you do have Insecurities.

[1stNightingale]

@lZlKing You are making less sense as you go along. All these comments about your logic and you cant even use English correctly. Name one fact you have proven to me. Name any facts you have even stated. I have not made any mistakes i read over and over these comments wondering how you misunderstand everything or wilfully chose to ignore certain references and statements. I am currently at school on my laptop and i get sent emails for every comment so not really hard to reply back to you.

[lZlKing]

@1stNightingale And if you start reading my replies, you would see my "Logic" that kills you to read it from me everytime i reply and it seems like you are utterly frustrated with my replies, causing you to make nonsense and false points, So keep feeling that you think you know more about these bands than i do. And try not to reply twisting my words fuckface.

[1stNightingale]

@lZlKing That comment really make much sense as any comment i ahve made has been either a direct quote or dealing with something you raised. Ihave not sworn i have not insulted i have simply stated that you seem to be confused as to what logic is and until you do a bit of research into the bands and its singers then you will be quite misled. All you need to do is google Myles Kennedy and youll see he has performed in jazz for a good part of his career. Logic requires knowledge not guesses.

[WalkerMacd393]

Creed sucks ass.

Scott Stapp's a faggot.

Screw this.

[alterbridgefan99]

When Mark said 6 months Scott looked at him like WTF! lol

[sharpedgedflesh]

scott looks like collin farell..

[thelipeluis]

Alguém podia traduzir isso ai /o\

[r3n3gade420]

@daboss 777888THEY ARE NOT A RELIGIOUS BAND YOU JACKASS, stapp admitted that on interviews and spoke for the other band members as well, hope your fucking precious heart isnt broken

[gnomegnarly13]

tremonti should just stick to alterbridge, let scott stapp stay broke

[Metalunited101]

YASEAAAH!

[Logmeoutnow]

Altar Bridge!

[alterbridgefan99]

@Logmeoutnow

Alter Bridge but hell yeah! AB 4 Life! Creed, enough is enough!

[daboss777888]

THEY ARE A VERY RELIGOUS BAND.

[paulyboy911]

@daboss777888 it's not so much religion as it is positivity and faith. faith can come from many things. they just want to put out a positive message. same with Alter Bridge.

[mrlips007]

Soooo Stoked for the albulms to come!

[jammerstud99]

i met Scott and he's a great guy thanks for the autograph Scott!!!

[JackieChanGirl]

Scott is sooo sexy I love his voice \m/

[0guitargod]

Scott, Dude the question was posed to Mark you jerk.

[coalchamber666x]

you talk to yourself offen?

[alterbridgefan99]

@0guitargod

I was gonna say the same exact thing!!!! Scott always shuts Mark up. He always always always steals the lime light weather in interviews and in the music. Pisses me off! Myles Kennedy is so gracious and humble and he shares the spot light with everyone. AB 4 Life! Enough is Enough with Creed

[0guitargod]

@alterbridgefan99 Rock on, Bro!

[alterbridgefan99]

@0guitargod

I'm actually a chick, but yeah lol \m/

I'm Pam. Nice to meet you :)

[lobo9er]

lost your carreer ooooo to late

creed shreds on youtube rules

[runningpetro]

Why in the fuck is this on CNN. Isn't there something more important to talk about.

[yourlocalmusic]

I for one like that there is SOMEthing positive on the news for once. Although this does seem pointless in the grand scheme of things, it is good to see something not so depressing plaguing the news.

[guitarussia]

@yourlocalmusic actually this is extremely depressing to me

[yourlocalmusic]

You don't have to love Creed for it to be positive. I certainly am not Creed's biggest fan, but a band reunion doesn't get me depressed. You may need medication, my friend.

[xo8jumbalaya8ox]

Im not sure if that was actually aired on the network. It probably was just an online feature.

[kliqguitarist]

I loved Creed when I was younger but Alter Bridge blew me away.Mark Tremontis guitar work is amazing to me.And I think Creeds new material is good,however I prefer Alter Bridge and probably always will do.But if it wasn't for Creed we would have them.Much respect to both

[shaw1]

is Mark really happy about this whole deal? i mean, I love Scott too...urgh...whatever. i'm glad they're back together even for a reunion. Creed rocks!

[wednesdaysbitch]

i think mark shudda stayed with AB. even tho there not gone for good, even the break is devostating. i personally dislike scott stapp. and think mark is far too good to be wasted on creed. and btw, it was the guys that left stapp, not stapp leaving them

[chrisbarnes22]

Alter Bridge is over at all. Mark states in many interviews that Alter Bridge is his number 1 priority and that when the Creed reunion tour is over they are going to start recording the new album under the working title 'Alter Bridge III'.

[MrDurrDurr1]

dude scott stap is good and all of them are.. creed is awesome and marks talent isnt being wasted i like alter bridge but creed is better

[residentevil988]

he looks cool with his shaved head in my opinion

[mmfootball13]

wtf?!?! scott cut his hair?!?!?! i didnt no that!

[HarleyMcE8]

Ive always thought Mark was hott!! Lol... Im such a bad gerl.. :P

[formula88]

Tremonti used to be my hero as a young teenager. But he's sold out too many times. Ditched Stapp to form alter bridge and now that they aren't doing well at all, he's suddenly down to reap the financial benifits of a creed reunion. Stapp should have just kept workin on his own thing. Creed just will never be the same. Especially now that they've added a second guitarist on their tour. I guess tremonti got lazy over the last six years.....

[rancecockrell]

Sold out? Huh?

From what I remember, Scott ditched them, not the other way around.

Alter Bridge is a million times better than Creed on any given day. Tremonti is a better guitarist now than when Creed was around. I imagine the second guitarist is to help fill out the sound on the songs from the new record, not because he is lazy.

[maryhunt1984]

Scott Stapp is hella sexy! Go see a show on the new tour if you don't believe me.

Everyone has challenges in life. He dealt with his demons and he's come out better for it.

You can see it in his preformance just how much he appreciates the 2nd chance. His voice was on point, the energy from the stage was awesome!

VA Beach, August 22nd, best show I've ever seen!!

[XxAlcLegacyxX]

@maryhunt1984 I went the 23rd of August '10,Best show i've been too,the ampitheather was going crazy!!

[rockandroll4life1]

that haircut, oh no!

[fearnobody123]

he looks so old now that he shaved his head

[Voicekillerforyou]

nope. not these douchebags. They should be shoot on sight.

[MrN0ble]

Everyone deservers a second chance! Good to see Scott and Creed are back together! Can't wait to catch one of their shows!!

[jaffordreyes]

stapp need to be long hair

[12jo0]

@jaffordreyes hes growing it out again

[kingstomman]

wtf why did ihe cut his hair wtf

[freezingstill]

he cut his hair because he said he wants people to look at him diffrently now, then when Creed broke up.

[x900lbGorillax]

Cool, they sound well rested and agreeing with each other. Hope it stays cool between them. Glad Scott is back.
