The board's server will undergo upgrade maintenance tonight, Nov 5, 2014, beginning approximately around 10 PM ET. Prepare for some possible down time during this process.
Guys, I am not a moderator! I swear to God! Why does everyone think I'm a moderator?

Scott Stapp is widely regarded as a lyricist without fault. However, I contend that his otherwise unblemished record does contain one mark against it in the song In America - not once, but twice.
He writes “Only in America we kill the unborn to make ends meet.” Perhaps he has never heard of Japan or China.
But even more egregious is the line “Only in America sexuality is democracy.” Unless, of course, he was including South America:

I used to have a 'Even Jesus hates Creed' t-shirt. Not sure what happened to it, but that was the closest I got to owning anything put out by these guys

i saw these guys in the early days. both times for free.
the first time was the webster in Hartford in '97. i was visiting my family for Christmas, and i'd heard from a friend that one of the local radio stations was playing Given to Fly. I'd called to see if they might play it, and the DJ told me they'd been playing it prematurely, but would i like tix to see creed at the webster? i knew one song, probably 'my own prison.' i took a friend with me, and after a few songs my friend and i agreed all the songs sounded the same. we left.
the second time was about a year later in OKC, behind a brewery. Goo Goo Dolls were on the bill, and i liked them, and they were actually good. some friends i went with wanted to stay for creed, but i opted out.
they sucked then. i'm not sure things have changed.

That must have been a sight.
i've only been there twice. the other time was for marilyn manson, circa '95 or '96.
now that was something.
I pretty much only went there for punk shows because they were really the only place that booked 'em but I knew they always had metal on the schedule, though those were often at the Underground next door.
