Re: Pawns & Kings Europe Tour 2022 with Halestorm and Mammoth WVH

If anyone wonders why Alter Bridge has never gotten the Download headliner spot, you've got your answer. Their setlists are always a bit lazy considering how deep their catalogue is, and they play WAY too many stale singles. They're too nice and predictable as a live band and lack that extra somethi...

Re: Pawns & Kings Europe Tour 2022 with Halestorm and Mammoth WVH

Man, that version of Shed My Skin... Reminds me of why I fell in love with this band at first listen all those years ago. It would be even better if Myles said Shed instead of Shat . I know it's been discussed to death, but the way he pronounces some vowels is really weird sometimes. I won't compla...

Re: The Official SCOTT STAPP Thread

I'm betting on a new album in 2023.
He's probably waiting on the pandemic to be completely over before releasing an album and heavily promoting it on tour.
This year, he played here and there, which makes me think he was often in the studio.

Cool performance in very good quality.


He should play it from time to time.

Re: Pawns & Kings Europe Tour 2022 with Halestorm and Mammoth WVH

Amazing to see. :peace
They seem to have a newfound appreciation for One Day Remains on this tour, which is great since they've often repeated Blackbird was kind of the album where they found their true sound.
Hopefully, they'll play Find the Real soon!

Re: Mark about a Creed reunion

Great posts. I just think Mark is not a better songwriter than he was in the Creed and early Alter Bridge days. He's definitely a better guitar player, but his songs had a bigger impact on the listeners and didn't feel as predictable as they do now. Sometimes, simpler is just better, and in the case...

I know people aren't really fans of this song around here, but I'm convinced that : A. Holiday would have a great reaction from the crowd, especially during the chorus. B. It could become their biggest single on the radio. It probably would have a great crowd reaction, but I doubt it would be their...

Re: Pawns & Kings (Alter Bridge - VII)

Here's my short review. It's easily their best album since Fortress. I love that it's only 10 songs long, and aside from Stay, I don't skip anything. This is War is a great opener, and Fable of the Silent Song grew on me after a couple of weeks, and I now cant' stop listening to it. Elvis did a fine...

Re: 11-04-22 - Partille Arena, Partille, Sweden

This is not a good setlist, considering how many good songs they have. The Other Side, Native Son, Waters Rising, Sin After Sin need to go away ASAP. Just because a wrestler is using The Other Side as a theme song overseas doesn't mean you have to play it for a European crowd, especially since it's ...

Re: Mark about a Creed reunion

There is apparently no reasoning with Stapp fans. And the sense of entitlement is UNREAL. Wow. Which entitlement are you talking about? I, for one, don't want a reunion and especially no new album. Mark can delete his Creed V demos for all I care, because I already know that stuff is be as bland an...

Re: Mark about a Creed reunion

Remember a post of somebody over here who said that Stapp said to him totally beiing responsable for the Creed Breakup. He definitely was. But it was not just your typical ego and booze, like so many rock stars before and after him. Stapp is a broken man who had to deal with abuse when he was a chi...

Imagine going through a terrible divorce where a lot of hurtful words are said and it drags on for months on end. 10+ years later, your old spouse may be a better person than they were during that time… But that doesn’t mean it’s a good idea to marry them again. Except we're just taking about a ban...

Have you watched his podcast with Theo Von?
He's become pretty wise and self-aware, if you ask me.

Why is everybody, including Mark, acting like Stapp is still the same dysfunctional guy he was 20 or even 10 years ago? He's become wiser over the last 8 years, and I don't think he'd be hard to work with. But hey, we've discussed this topic to death, and I wouldn't be surprised if Mark kept using t...

Re: Mark about a Creed reunion

He just takes Creed and its fans for granted. He doesn't care about it That's the impression I get from that quote too. Where as for Mark, Brian, and Flip, Creed is lower in terms of priority. It's clearly at the bottom of priorities for Mark, way behind Alter Bridge, Tremonti and the Sinatra stuff...

Asked about the possibility of a CREED reunion, Mark said: "It's just a matter of timing. We're all so busy running around the world doing our things, we would just have to have the time where it made sense. I don't think we need to rush into it, because I don't think CREED fans are going anyw...

I suggest you listen to it again. It was just as loud as any other album from that era: https://dr.loudness-war.info/?artist=&album=wasting+light It just proves that the whole analog recording is just some marketing BS. If you screw it up during the mixing and mastering phase, you've just wasted...
