Are YOU STILL secrectly diggin Creed?

Diamond

*smooch*

No, my love.

I never liked them - my good friend was in Creed then, so I went to see him play.
Scott Stapp was an asshole even then - and he was even wearing a Pearl Jam shirt when performing.

Imagine:
In Florida the wind is rattling the chimes.
You look over the alligators and the sea grass and water. There it is:
The rocket's burn. The best century ever.
We were here. But now it's time to go.
 
Sting stunk? May I ask why? I beg to differ.

My list (and I might as well include the opening acts too):

Bryan Adams
Queensryche
Type O Negative (they opened for Queensryche, were pretty bad)
Collective Soul
Rusty (opened for CS)
Lawrence Gowan
A guy who opened for Gowan, some local guy with a one word name
Sting
Jimmy Page and Robert Plant
A woman who opened for Page and Plant, played violin and sang very loudly
Jann Arden (opened for Sting, also at a free concert in town)
Philosopher Kings
Melanie Doane (opened for Philosopher Kings)
PJ Harvey (opened for U2)
kd lang (opened for Sting)
Crash Test Dummies
Colin James (he and the Dummies were free at the Commonwealth Games entertainment when that happened in my town)
Spirit of the West
Some Canadian bands who were not half bad but whose names I cannot remember who were at the same concert as Spirit of the West
Nelly Furtado when she sang at a school assembly
biggrin.gif

Fred Penner (when young)
Raffi (also when young)

I think that's about it. Angel, when did you see Midnight Oil? I am really mad at myself for not going to see them in Vancouver when they were there recently.

By the way, I officially hate everyone who saw Led Zeppelin and the Police, though I have seen members of both bands (P&P blew me away, and I've seen Sting twice and probably prefer his solo work to the Police.)

I was supposed to see these guys 3 different times and everytime the show got cancelled for sore throats, etc... after the third time I kind of went of them. I still like a lot of their music but they dont give shit about their fans it seems.

Holy Jesus, Holy rock and roll...
