I just bought your EP. It looks like that's all you, right? No other band members right now?scarecrow wrote: ↑Mon May 02, 2022 11:34 pmI was in middle school when I was introduced to Creed. So I was 14 years old at my first show in August 2000. And 18 at my first AB show in 2004. Met the guys for the first time in January 2005. I believe my friends and I even interacted with nagpo that night!Merinda wrote: ↑Mon May 02, 2022 7:43 amOh man that's amazing! How old were you if you don't mind me asking? Are you another fan grown up alongside AB? (I was about 13 when I started listening in '06 (I think).scarecrow wrote: ↑Sat Apr 30, 2022 5:53 pm 1 - Who/what introduced you to Alter Bridge?
I became a diehard Creed / Tremonti fan circa 99-00. So I've been there from the beginning. The VERY beginning, that being a thread on CreedFeed titled 'So We're Going Myles Kennedy??' in late 2003 which I believe is still there. I remember being on a family road trip in summer 2004 and using hotel dial-up to try to hear 'Open Your Eyes' for the first time! It didn't work, I had to wait until I got home.
I'm so sorry to hear about your dad! The band have a knack for getting people through tough times. I had a similar experience in 2019 with WTS when my step-father passed away.scarecrow wrote: ↑Sat Apr 30, 2022 5:53 pm 4 - Who's your fave band member and why?
Mark because he's a genuinely great guy and has inspired and comforted me more than he'll ever know. It's an effect that's only grown over time. Marching In Time came out in the wake of my father's death and will always be a source of great peace to me. The other band members are swell, too.
Was a total basketcase on the boards in 2007 when "Rise Today" came out, not proud of it. A twenty-something know-it-all. Oof. I still feel bad about it.
But yeah, the ODR tour was amazing. I wish y'all could've been there.
And thanks for the condolences. My dad was a complicated person (not a particularly good one) and the fallout of his death was incredibly tough psychologically - coming to terms with who he was.
But 2022 has been so great to me so far. I just bought a house and released my first original music ever!! in the same month!

I love that really bright happy sounding rock vibe of Playlist. It's perfect for playing on the deck in these late spring/early summer afternoons with a grill and a drink or two. Congrats man! You're very talented. I hope you keep making music!
yes, it's all me. hopefully will become a band, but for the moment i go it alone. narrowed it down to 12-ish mostly completed songs (at least in acoustic / demo form) for the full length album today. very exciting. hope to start recording in june and release in december!
and don't tell anyone this but i am toying with the idea of licensing and reimagining 'my sacrifice' in more of a synthpop style to close the album. hoping that works out.
